To hate the characters at first then realize they aren't that bad.

To enjoy the direction of Edgar Wright even if it isn't as funny in an actual American action movie.

To shitpost on /tv/ about how you hated it, probably using terms like "millennials" and "generation Y".

To fall in love.

Not the best Wright thing but still highly enjoyable.

there were days that were really quiet and tense, they were over budget and shooting for longer than expected. i remember hearing that edgar threw apple crates at bill pope at one point, not sure over what.

i also remember edgar personally telling and AD to kick some extras off set cause he heard them talking shit about the movie inbetween takes lol

it was fine, but definitely at the bottom of his works for me. I enjoyed Spaced, Shaun, Scott, and Hot Fuzz infinitely more.

Actually, I'd place a Fistful of Fingers and that other cop short he made below Worlds End seeing as they weren't even really films/tv.
>>
>>64018368
Wright seems like a bit of a dick in the Spaced features, but in an autistic director kind of way, not a general arsehole kind of way.

I think Nick Frost calls him "Edgar Got-To-Get-It Right".

I do also remember that the actress who played envy adams had her tampon string peeking out from under her dress during a take, pretty embarassing lol

that was the general consensus, he never conversed with any of the crew/extras except for the actors and ADs

The only video game part that annoyed me was this scene.

It works better in the comic. He comes around the corner after Knives has met the band, they introduce him, she asks what he plays, he says, "Nothing, I just live here."

That's a better joke than a video game pun where someone gets to mention video games.

Lots of "epic quirky" references that actively detract from the movie.
the movie itself is also just kinda... eh. Didn't like it as much as the comic. Not that I liked the comic all that much either but somehow the movie was worse.

>le I hate Michael Cera meme

I heard people talking about this film after they had watched it. This one cunt was mouthing off about how bad Cera was ... "In all his films he unbelievably gets the grill without even trying". When I pointed out he had to fight seven evil exes to "get the grill" I just got "Well he still sucked, he always does".

I really hope this isn't why you wanted someone other than Cera, Anon.

I don't want to persuade you to read comics, you are not some kind of nerd, of course, however movie omit some important parts, particularly Ramonas character development.
>comfy movie
If you are not familiar with Wrights style, you should watch it.
It you are familiar with Wright style you know its awesome, and you should watch it
btw Wright would be far better SW director than JJ

That didn't annoy me, but all the Zelda sound effects did, especially because none of them were context-appropriate.

I liked the music in the dream sequence because:

>1. Nintendo are historically cunts when it comes to this sort of thing.

>2. Edgar Wright or someone wrote the most sycophantic message, something like how it's a "lullaby to a generation".

It's one of the most fun movies I've ever seen.

Have you seen Speed Racer? If you liked that you'll probably like this?
>>
It's a funny, charismatic, decent movie with a rabid hatebase because it was one of the first mainstream movies to have le epic video game references and places like /v/ were just starting to backlash against that shit.

An okay movie

Some of the practical shots are pretty cool though, I like the bathroom shot where they physically move the set.

I still think Cera did the best he could, but he wasn't the best choice for Pilgrim.

Scott's sister is pretty hot.

Music is pretty good.

Mediocre comedy overall.

You will expect a video game movie.

You instead get a movie about a fictional Indie Band and QT MEW.
