#scott Pilgrim takes off spoilers

o captain my captain

Bryan Lee O'Malley remarking that he had Scott explicitly spell out that his relationship with Knives was inappropriate in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off because he feels like a lot of the comic's readers maybe didn't pick up on that is very funny not only because how do you not, but also because the original Scott Pilgrim comics are some of the most didactic media I've ever read outside of, like, medieval Christian allegories about the wages of sin. It's just constantly explaining to the reader exactly why Scott is a bad person, sometimes with little annotated diagrams. Genuinely, what's it gonna take for the twentysomething male audience not to idolise a loser?

i can't believe this was the new scott pilgrim anime

I've long held that one of the interesting things about manic pixie dream girl stories is how after debuting with one authors tend to realize they can cut out the middleman of an everyman protagonist and write about weird women full time, but the Scott Pilgrim cartoon is WILDEST addition to my citations for this so far. They really Garfield Minus Garfielded that man. They hot dead wifed him. They produced the most expensive canon divergence minor character spotlight fanfiction in existence. They eeby deebied him. And it was incredible.

THEY CHANGED THE PAC-MAN SCENE TO SONIC THE HEDGEHOG??? HELLO

[prokopetz]

It's not the biggest twist in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, but I like how the show takes the opportunity to correct course on the fact that Matthew Patel is the only evil ex whose deal is never really elaborated on in the comic on account of the fact that he's defeated in the same scene in which he's introduced... and what it actually decides to do with that opportunity is totally double down on that initial characterisation and establish that no, he really is a completely literal evil wizard, in fucking Toronto for some reason.
