I had the cinema ticket paid for me, or else I wouldn't have had any inclination to go see it... I'm still calling it Scott Pilgrim Must Die by mistake, because I am mixing it up with that other Scott who must die. Anyway... I thought it was shit... There were a few chucklesome moments, eg "I need to pee on her", and Kieran Culkin stole the show, but beyond that it was just too much of a blitz of geek references, hectic editing, 'quirky indie kids', and ham fisted ironic over acting to be in any way enjoyable...Basically, it was Spaced with too much money and glitz. I gave it a 4/10 on imdb... I still may read the graphic novel (the first one at least). I watched this last.
