    Michael Cera playing a shy and scrawny teenager with little to no success with the girls, yet getting the girls through a mixture of witty quips and accidental pseudo-heroism?

    Good to see Hollywood stretching his acting skills!

    Actually in the comic Scott Pilgrim does OK with women, despite his cluelessness. And he he's not shy. And he never makes witty quips, and there's nothing accidental about his heroism, he fights people!

    I played the demo and I liked it, will have to buy eventually. Disappointing that I can't play with you guys.

    I think I'm gonna go see this with my friend this weekend. It looks really good, even though Michael Cera really has never impressed me. :/

    No. When I saw the trailer I thought the film should be called "Video Game Movie." I hear it's actually good, but I'll never overcome my prejudice now -- the trailer is possibly the worst thing in the world!

    I hate Michael Cera, but I smurfing loved this movie. All the videogame references cracked me up, and even though that dope Cera was the star, all of the other actors compensated for it big time. Wallace was especially hilarious, and all of the deadly exes amused me. And I love Schwartzman!!

    This movie amuse the hell out of me. I loved it. I would see it again!

    I'm with Shorty on the whole 'Michael Cera hate' thing, I had no idea people disliked him so much. I thought he was awesome in Juno, and he was awesome in superbad. Apart from those two movies I don't think I can remember seeing him in much else. In this he wasn't even tasked with playing a particularly funny character, but the character was still enjoyable, and like clo said; the rest of the characters and the movie's pop-culture references delivered the bulk of the humour.

    In fact, a very large group of people have been screaming for a movie that did video games justice (and with predecessors like the Street-Fighter movies, Doom and Mortal Kombat movies it's not hard to see why). This does video games justice in not only a visual aspect, but it provides fan service with numerous pop-culture references. This movie makes the tag 'Video-Game Movie' a good thing.

    Oh, you couldn't be more wrong. It's akin to blasphemy comparing this movie to those 'movies'.

    By the way, I LOVE Mortal Kombat!
    Me too, but I love it on the basis of it being a fan service, and the fact that it has an awesome theme song. As a movie it's absolute rubbish; Scott Pilgrim, on the other hand, is a well executed, technically sound and original movie.
