Like DMKA said, it's around 50million below reaching budget (maybe 70, cant seem to find the proper numbers); so yes, it flopped hard.Originally Posted by ShlupQuack

Yeah, it was considered a flop, but seriously I guarantee it will do good on DVD. Bear in mind, Donnie Dark was a flop in theaters as well.
Peddler of Nonsense.
Yeah, films like Donnie Darko, Serenity and Fight Club did very poorly at the box office but found a cult life on DVD, I imagine Scott Pilgrim has a good chance of doing the same with the (very) niche appeal it has.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
It will probably still make it to Cult Classic status.
Agreed. I'll be buying it the moment it comes out for Blu-Ray.
I still cruise libraries. I'm a fuddy duddy like that. Most libraries have graphic novels! And movies.
Neat movie. I might get the soundtrack for the beck songs. Michael Cera was kind of like the ghost of a flagellating, Loser-era beck.
I finally watched this last night. It was smurfing amazing, definitely one of the better movies I've seen in a long time.
I beat this game earlier today with my little brother. It was hell and I thought it was worth it, because I expected that beating the game would unlock either a new character or a technique, but when we checked their were no new characters and Tech Attack 2 was still locked. The game was really fun, but a bit grind heavy. Love the retro influences of Zelda, the X-men arcade game, Mario, Double Dragon, and I think Zombies Ate My Neighbors? Game had a few good songs as well.
That last stage is a trip, wish I could've played it with more people.
This movie is awesome, as are the comics it's based on. Love Scott Pilgrim. Kind of sad they didn't do the Ramona vs. Envy fight. Or the Honest Ed's scene. But I guess then half the movie would focus on the third book. :P
YouTube - Scott Pilgrim vs The World Soundtrack 07- We Hate You, Please Die
DVD is out in the UK just after Christmas, can't wait to get it
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
Just watched this today and it was awesome.
As for the movie flopping, i don't know. It's only cashed in a few dozen millions "by now", but there's still a lot of potential future earnings. So who knows?!
Btw i still wonder which song it is at the end of the trailer.
-edit-
Some other source claims the movie has made about 45 millions world wide, with a budget of 60 millions, and it's only been like two months since it was released anyway. It's not the most profitable movie in the world, of course, but I'm sure it'll break more than even in not too long.

Can anyone name all the game references in this? I noticed Super Mario Bros. 2 for the character select screen. Super Mario Bros. for the blocks in the Subspace Highway, Double Dragon at the ninja stage, X-men Arcade at the last stage of the game, Super Mario Bros 3 and World for the world map. RPGs with the stats.
