Scott Pilgrim Takes Off: Final Trailer

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off: Final Trailer

, , , 7

We have about a month to go before Scott Pilgrim Takes Off premieres on Netflix, and today at NYCC, the streamer debuted what would appear to be the ultimate trailer for the miniseries. You can’t top setting everything to the Mortal Kombat theme, so this is probably it until we get the actual show. Since a full season of episodes has a lot more space to fill than a movie, you can expect a lot more of the original comic to be adapted, including scenes the feature film skipped over. But that may not be all: the producers have hinted that the story could go in a different direction than either the comic or movie did, so there will be some surprises even if you know this tale inside and out. Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is being produced by Science Saru, whose previous credits include Devilman Crybaby and Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! And the English version stars EVERYONE from the movie: Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim; Mary Elizabeth Winstead

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. This is the scene where Scott schemes to set up a meeting between himself and Ramona Flowers, but it plays out a bit differently: instead of an Amazon delivery girl, Ramona is delivering DVDs for Netflix. This is a pretty hilarious change: it’s not only meta, but Netflix officially retired their DVD mailing service just this month, and those DVDs were sent through the mail system, not delivered by specific people. Given that, and the fact that Scott is using a computer with a CRT monitor, this clip suggests the show doesn’t take place in the present, but at the time the book and live-action movie came out — around the late 2000s or early

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off On Netflix This November

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off On Netflix This November

The wild and wacky world of Scott Pilgrim exists in comic, movie and video game form, each with a cult legion of fans…but it doesn’t have its own anime. Yet. Netflix is fixing that with the creation of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, an eight-episode miniseries that hits the streamer this fall. The story will be the same: Once upon a time there was a selfish young lad who lived in an alternate Toronto that functioned on video game logic. He fell in love with a delivery girl, but had to fight and defeat her Seven Evil Exes to properly date her. If you’re only familiar with the movie, though, you may be in for a few surprises: since the anime has more room to tell its story, it’ll be a more straight adaption of the source material (the movie was actually completed before the last book was finished). Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is being produced by Science Saru, whose previous credits include Devilman Crybaby and Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!

Scott Pilgrim Anime Reunites The ENTIRE Cast From The Movie

Scott Pilgrim Anime Reunites The ENTIRE Cast From The Movie

Last year Netflix announced they had begun production on an anime adaption of the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels. This would be the second time Scott has been rendered viewable in motion, after the 2010 cult classic Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. To give the cartoon a little boost the producers decided to hire back some of the actors who played the characters in the live-action movie. So how many did they manage to get? ….Try EVERYONE. From the leads (Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead), to people who are usually hard to get and worth a gazillion dollars today (Brie Larson, Chris Evans) to people who probably would have been here even if this was the first Scott Pilgrim adaption ever (Aubrey Plaza). The full list: Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim; Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Ramona Flowers; Satya Bhabha as Matthew Patel; Kieran Culkin as Wallace Wells; Chris Evans as Lucas Lee; Anna Kendrick as Stacey Pilgrim; Brie Larson as Envy Adams; Alison Pill as Kim Pine; Aubrey Plaza as Julie

Scott Pilgrim Is Finally Getting Animated

Aside from a short created for Adult Swim twelve years ago, Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim series has never been considered for adaption in animated form, despite having the perfect look for it. We love the live-action movie, don’t get us wrong, but we’ve always wanted to see a fully cartoon take on what’s essentially a cartoon anyway. Looks like we’re finally about to get it. Netflix just announced a partnership with anime production studio Science SARU (Star Wars Visions) to produce an anime series about Scott Pilgrim’s precious little life. O’Malley himself will be writer and executive producer, and he’ll share showrunning duties with BenDavid Grabinski. You know the Scott Pilgrim story by now: a selfish twentysomething from Toronto meets his dream girl, he must beat up her seven previous boyfriends in a video game inspired world, and he learns how to be a better man in the process. That’s the basic story, but the movie cut out a lot of parts…the original comic was six books long, and

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World Returns To Theaters April 30

I remember what it was like eleven years ago when Scott Pilgrim Vs The World was first released. There was hype among the nerd crowd before the film was even out, but on opening weekend, it was up against “The Expendables,” an action throwback picture starring a slew of 80s-tough-guy-movie veterans, and “Eat Pray Love,” a Julia Roberts vehicle for the Oprah crowd. On the surface there wouldn’t seem to be much overlap between the intended audiences for those films, so Scott should’ve had the all-important youth market sewn up, right? ….Didn’t work out that way. Watching Scott Pilgrim flop was painful (like getting your heart kicked in the ass, to use a Pilgrim-ism), but it eventually found its audience — and classic status — through home video releases (movie rental was still a thing back then). And now it has a second chance to make some box office bread. Just as theaters are beginning to open back up in the US, Scott Pilgrim Vs The World is returning to

At Last: Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World Gets A Physical Release

, , , , , 0

Ask any collector of physical games and they’ll tell you: Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game is the one title that should have been given a physical release when it came out on the PS3 back in 2010. Viewed by its publisher as a mere promotional tie-in to the movie (which came out at the same time), the game was digital-only back when that meant certain doom by deletion. After its removal from online merchants in late 2014, it not only became impossible to buy, but impossible to re-download. The only way anyone could play it was if they owned a console that already had the game installed on it. Last fall Ubisoft and Universal announced they were finally caving in to fan demand and re-publishing Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World on modern systems. But what about that physical release? Don’t make the same mistake twice, you guys! Ubisoft said they had nothing to announce at that time. We’re relieved to report now that, one week before the digital

This week, EW.com published an excellent interview with Edgar Wright, the director of  Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. 2020 marks the tenth anniversary of the cult classic film, which lost at the box office to a stale Stallone movie yet has grown in popularity in the years since. Wright was joined by the lead actors from the movie: Michael Cera as Scott, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Ramona Flowers, Chris Evans as Lucas Lee and others. There are a lot of interesting facts revealed in this interview — the movie is packed with folks who would become stars, to the point that Wright actually had to turn away people fated to be famous…Rooney Mara, Betty Gilpin and Zoe Kazan all shot auditions. The most interesting thing we learned, though, is that they’re thinking of bringing Scott back — but in a new form. “There’s some plans — and there’s nothing official yet — but there are some plans to revisit the material in an animation way,” confesses Wright. “We’ve been talking

Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Card Game

Two thoughts run through your mind when you’re staring at the box for Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Card Game: There wasn’t a Scott Pilgrim card game already? Shouldn’t there have been one out six years ago? Where is the new wave of cartoony, humor-based comic books that Scott Pilgrim should have heralded? Lumberjanes isn’t enough! Comics are still too serious…. It didn’t happen in the wake of the comic’s success and it didn’t happen when the movie came out, but it’s happening now. Renegade Game Studios is producing this better-late-than-never product, and here’s how it works. Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Card Game is a deckbuilding game that challenges you to grow up and prepare for your finest hour. Players assume the roles of their favorite characters in the Scott Pilgrim universe, each of whom comes with a unique starting deck.
