Second SCOTT PILGRIM trailer debuts

16 Comments POSTED ON Jun 01 2010 AT 8:02 am BY The Beat

You know, we've been expecting that this thing will be awesome, and this just confirms it, but seeing it all laid out like that makes us wonder if the movie going audience -- which has recently shown itself to be pretty reactionary and unadventurous -- will really except a teenaged romance comedy with lots of fighting.

We totally admit to having stolen the above graphic -- juxtaposing the Scott PIlgrim trailer's treatment of the Seven Evil Ex-boyfriends with the comics, from Comics Alliance. So we'll just direct you to their panel by panel examination of how the trailer reflects the comics. We'll also direct you to Splash Page, which has their "Five Favorite Scott PIlgrim Trailer Moments." After the trailer appearaed yesterday moring ""#scottpilgrim" was a treding topic on Twitter for a while, beating out even Justin Bieber and Scotty McBoogerballs, so this could be a big deal.
