Scott Pilgrim Vs. The Film Flop

So that movie based on that one comic book kinda bit it at the box office this past weekend. It made 10.5 million dollars and placed 5th. It honestly looks pretty good. I read the comic which was pretty damn long and predictable but still enjoyable.

The important thing is it will probably gain cult status and you can bring it to your friends taking credit for introducing it to them. I did that with Donnie Darko and still feel awesome about that. My family has a long line of taking credit for things we probably shouldn't take credit for. My Dad claims he invented the double cheeseburger and came up with the word "fuckstick." I'm going to believe him on this one, the man knows his way around a cheeseburger.

But anyway, the reviews are pretty solid for a movie about a jobless kid who dates so chick with weird hair and has to beat up her ex's for some reason. The boss he has to beat up is Jason Schwartzman. When it comes to final bosses, that is probably the least intimidating bad guy I could think of fighting. Well, maybe if Stephen Hawking rolled up and instigated a fight, but you never know, he probably has brain powers or something.
