<p>Scott Pilgrim Takes Off in just 51 days. The anime version of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s awkward tale of love, conflict and Pac-Man will premiere on Netflix this November, and the streamer released an advance clip from the miniseries this morning. It’s brief, but there are a couple things it reveals that we didn’t know previously.</p>

I'm seriously blown away that the original movie cast, with all their big-time Hollywood success, is coming back to reprise their Scott Pilgrim roles! It's like they're paying homage to where it all started, and that's just awesome. Major props to them for staying true to their roots.
 
Well, to be honest, I don't quite see this as anime. These characters, they don't really have that classic Japanese anime look, if you catch my drift. They're more like something out of an American graphic novel, and that SoCal influence is pretty noticeable. It's cool, but it's not exactly what I'd consider traditional anime
 
Dude, I'm totally stoked for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off! That sneak peek got me hyped! Can't believe Ramona's delivering Netflix DVDs, that's wild. It's like a trip back to the 2000s, and I'm loving it, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is bringing back all those nostalgic vibes. Scott scheming to meet Ramona with that old CRT monitor? Epic! Can't wait to see all my favorite characters back in action.
 
Frankly, I never really liked Scott Pilgrim. I mean, the guy's dating Knives Chow, who's like 17, and he's a grown man. That's pretty questionable. And don't even get me started on the cheating, hooking up with Ramona while he's still with someone else. Plus, he's not exactly a looker, you know? The live-action actor who played him, well, he's no heartthrob. It's kinda hard to root for a guy like that.
 
This is pure awesomeness! Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is like a blast from the past. And Anamanaguchi doing the music? I'm gonna jam out to those tunes while watching.
 
Wow, I'm stoked for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off! That Netflix scene is like a blast from the past. Scott's old computer and Netflix DVDs – classic! Can't wait to see the whole series. ?️Scott Pilgrim Takes Off looks like a blast! That clip was a trip down memory lane. I'm loving the nostalgia vibes – it's like the late 2000s are back! ?
 
Oh, come on! Scott Pilgrim Takes Off? Seriously? That movie was a total flop, and now they're trying to revive it as an anime? I just don't get why people liked it in the first place. I mean, sure, it had its quirky moments, but let's be real here – it was a mess.

First of all, the story was all over the place. It's like they tried to cram too much into one movie, and it ended up feeling rushed and chaotic. And don't even get me started on the characters. Scott Pilgrim himself was insufferable, and Ramona Flowers? She was about as interesting as watching paint dry.

And what's with all the video game references? It's like they were desperately trying to pander to gamers, but it just came off as cringeworthy. Plus, the whole "fighting the evil exes" thing got old real quick.

Now, they want to turn this mess into an anime? I can't see it doing any better. Some people might be nostalgic for the early 2000s, but that doesn't mean we need to resurrect every mediocre piece of pop culture from that era.

Honestly, I won't be wasting my time on Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. There are way better anime series out there worth watching.
 
@tommasso Hey, hold on a sec! I get that Scott Pilgrim vs. the World didn't do gangbusters at the box office, but it's become a cult classic for a reason. Despite its initial reception, it's gained a dedicated fanbase over the years. And let's not forget that many of the actors from the film have become huge stars since then.
 
Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Chris Evans – they've all gone on to do some fantastic work in Hollywood. The movie might not have been a blockbuster, but it certainly played a role in launching their careers.Plus, the film's unique style and humor resonate with a certain audience. It's a love letter to geek culture, and that's something a lot of people appreciate. So, while it might not have been a hit when it first came out, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World has certainly earned its place in pop culture history.
