Escape to the Movies: "Scott Pilgrim vs The World"

You bet your ass it's that good.

"Intermission" wraps up the Nerd Movie Bible.

Normally, I'm uncomfortable being a movie "advocate" in addition to "critic," but I really am compelled to join the rest of the web in just PLEADING with anyone within earshot of this with even an inkling of seeing "Scott Pilgrim" to go give it some business this weekend. Yes, even if you're "sick" of Michael Cera - he's REALLY good in this. It's an almost-certain modern classic - easily one of the best films of the year, a future landmark in terms of the "language" of western filmmaking (editing in particular) and just a spectacular piece of work... and it'll be a real shame if it gets stomped all over - financially, anyway - by soulless, pandering "gender-niche" flotsam like "Eat Pray Love" or the unmitigated shitstorm that is "The Expendables."
