I like Kung-Fu.
I thought I heard the budget was closer to 70mil, but I'm not 100%. Either way; yes, the movie will be considered a major flop.
Dang where've you been?

Plus the moment I see Michael Cera, Seth Rogan or Jonah Hill I immediately tune whatever it is I'm seeing out, typically, so that couldn't have helped.
I like Kung-Fu.
Good to see you back on the forums.
Oh, thanks!I thought when you asked where I'd been you were suggesting I was slow to notice this movie. xD
I like Kung-Fu.
I didn't think I'd like this movie but fortunately I was pleasantly surprised. As a comedy its just ok but as a martial arts action flick its kind of brilliant. One of the fights even had cues from The Warriors soundtrack and THAT was badass.
Not sure if somebody has said this already but I reckon this is how a Street Fighter movie should play out. None of this Legend of Chun Li garbage. If only video game movies could accept they are video game movies and target the right crowd then everyone can be happier.
I saw it today. It's a lot of style and not too much depth. The runtime being the big constraint, you just can't fit all six books into one film really, so it has to skim over the surface somewhat, which is the one major flaw of the film. Luckily, the style is absolutely fantastic, I don't think I've seen a film quite like it, they really nailed the feel of the comic and the way it's done. The fights are excellent of course, as is the soundtrack. The cast do very well (especially Kieran Culkin as Wallace) with the all-too-little screentime most of them are given. Michael Cera is the weakest link (as much as I disagree with the amount of internet hate he gets), but he grows into the role as the film goes one, and he is great in the fight scenes (oddly, considering Cera is the archetypal 120lb weakling). So not a perfect film but very enjoyable, and the Universal logo at the start was almost worth the admission fee alone (well it made me laugh!)
Plus Ellen Wong and Anna Kendrick
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
I have yet to see the movie, but I thoroughly enjoyed what I've read of the graphic novel.
I probably won't take it too seriously, and enjoy it as much as I can. :/
5 Reasons Why Scott Pilgrim Flopped
Some reasons that are most likely true about it flopping. I don't necessarily agree with number 1, but I think all the others are on point.
Yeah, all those points are really on song. I think number 1 is exactly the point I made earlier when I mentioned that Expendables (still number 1) and Vampires Suck (now jumped to number...smurfing....TWO!!!) were doing so much better than this movie. I've never had the best view of society as a whole; so when you have one film that has good critical reviews and another film that has BAD critical reviews, and then people as a collective choose the bad one, what else is there to call it except for stupid? Maybe you could chalk it down to conformity, but either way I don't think it makes sense.
I liked his points on Michael Cera as well.
Mainstream conformists made this movie flop. We must make them BEGONE.
Wait, it's actually considered a flop?? I know it only appeals to a certain demographic, but it's so good. :ohnoes:
I went and found the books at a library. I had to read the comic after seeing the movie.
You went... to the library? And got comic books?
THAT'S AMAZING.
I'm downloading them. xP
