I had previously said that KICK-ASS would be comic book film of the year, even over Iron Man 2, but I have renounced: It's now Scott Pilgrim's world, and we only live in it.
Amazing books, looks like an amazing trailer. And Edgar Wright is the fucking bob-omb.
I'm been meaning to read the Pilgrim books; they look great, but this trailer makes the movie look like a real migraine-inducer. Was the campy "COMIC! BOOK! MOVIE!" zing, pow, blam stuff just some idiot marketing guy's idea for the ad campaign, or is it actually in the movie?
To add insult to injury, there's also less than zero chemistry between Cera and the boring art school chick. I didn't buy that he'd crush that plastic cup for her, never mind fight her ex-boyfriends. Maybe I'm just way too old to be the movie's target audience. I should ask my 12 year old son what he thinks...
I did love Hot Fuzz, though. I didn't realize that movie was underrated...
Anything that Edgar Wright does is genius. Anyone who has seen his movies needs to check out Spaced, the television show he did with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
No way, Hot Fuzz is way better than Shaun of the Dead. Spaced is highly recommended as well, the Kitsap Regional Library has the series on DVD if anyone is over here and wants to see it at no cost.
I am SO over Michael Cera. Seriously. I love nerd boys but that guy just BUGS me.
@11: I love him and I hate him too. I mean, fuck. It's not bad to stay within your range, but when your range isn't so much a range as ONE NARROWLY DEFINED CHARACTER, oh my God.

In the movie. It's a great interpretation of how the comic's reality works.

Cons: Michael Cera playing Michael Cera playing Scott Pilgrim. No no no.
