Episode 5.10 - Scott Pigrim vs. The Movie!

[vexation5]

April 10, 2010 was the last ACBO?!! I'm guessing legal issues involving its protagonist and producer, or Casey really did die in this dimension (but not in others) like flipperISdead suggests, and/or the creators are sadistic enough to create hot, viral interest and then willfully NOT explain what happened as some unforgivable psychology experiment.

Maybe it went to the same place the last issue of 'Pirates of Coney Island' went. Either way I can't hold my breath any longer.

THX, ACBO.

"See you next time on ACBO" over a year and a half later.....

[flipperISdead]

ya so..when does the next season start? ..or did she really get killed?

[RicardoR5]

lee is GOD and scott pilgrim is his lesbian lover

[realar]

There's no way she was born 1911, try 1971.

[LilaRose89]

@realar yeah cos it's totally possible for her to be born in 2088.

[thejigsawmurdersyou]

The best comic book videos that ive seen on youtube.

5 oranges.

[Ajxdiddy]

@thejigsawmurdersyou i give this 10 plums out of 10 :D

[MainCharacterChannel]

Scoot Pilgrim is great. Love the show. Looking forward to next season. :-)

[KindaQuietGeekyGuy]

They have scott pilgrim in a waterstones nears where i live but they have volume 3 onward =(

Gonna ask them to order in the first 2, i was confused by the fact that the series wasn't finished but they had made a film but now i know

[fairr0ssc0]

I swear i just started watching this and they have had 3 seasons already... Also should have ended it with you dying,like the beginning, would have been a clever way to end it

[acomicbookorange]

@fairr0ssc0 5 seasons actually! Been doing it since 2007, but had a big break between season 2 and 3. I'm sad I didn't think of dying at the end, like in the skit... wish you were in our writing room!!!

[ZackHunter]

I read all 5 volumes earlier this year and just fell in love. I've been following Edgar wrights production blog and that trailer just hits right on point.

plus being a 20 something slacker I feel similar to scott at moments.

[acomicbookorange]

@ZackHunter I think we all feel like Scott Pilgrim sometimes... he's a good character. Plus, I love the video game references :)

[ZackHunter]

@acomicbookorange another great interview by the way. Poor Brian having trouble with the name of his own book. lol

We'd love to have you guys on the Why I love comics podcast one of these days depending on your schedule of course :)

[acomicbookorange]

@ZackHunter Sounds fun, Zack! Send us an email through our contact form on our web site and we'll talk!

[ZackHunter]

@acomicbookorange Will do! I'm reformatting the podcast into more of an interview show so looking forward to hopefully eventually talking :)

[TriNitroToluenoC4]

Great as always! you coulden't have a better season fenale. I really hope the move is at least half as good as the comic....

[acomicbookorange]

@TriNitroToluenoC4 Thanks! Me too! We shall see... in 4 months :P

[hellointernet]

Great last ep. O'Malley is seems cool.

[acomicbookorange]

@hellointernet He IS cool! :)

[C4RL0Z479]

okay this was awesome :)

[acomicbookorange]

@C4RL0Z479 HA! Thanks!

[FatMat426]

Another very good episode to end another awesome season, thanks for all the great reviews of all these cool comic books! Also, the art in "Daytripper" looks really nice, thanks for sharing it with us even if you only gave it 2.5 oranges.

[acomicbookorange]

@FatMat426 The art IS really nice... the Ba/Moon brothers do great work. Check out Casanova, written by Matt Fraction and illustrated by the brothers. We gave it 4 oranges in 2007 and they're about to go into reprint (I think by Marvel).

[Fee2015]

Awesome Intro! One of my new favorites :) As a HUGE Trekker i might have to check out that McCoy comic! Awesome Season! I hope you get good rest before the next one starts ;)

[acomicbookorange]

@Fee2015 Rudy LOVED the McCoy comic... he's still talking about it. We may not have given it a huge rating, but if you're a fan it's worth checking out.

[TheeOneWhoTalks]

This video was totally Kick-Ass! See what I did there?

[acomicbookorange]

@TheeOneWhoTalks Heheheh... did you SEE Kick-Ass? What did you think? Rudy (A Comicbook Orange writer) and I (Casey) agreed to give it 3.75 oranges out of 5.

[TheeOneWhoTalks]

@acomicbookorange I did see it and found it to be awesome. I think it helped that I didn't read the comic first, otherwise it wouldn't have been as awe inspiring, then again if I read the comic first then the comic pry would've given me the same feeling the movie did. Either way they're both greatness in my opinion.

[acomicbookorange]

@TheeOneWhoTalks You're right... because I read 6/8 issues of Kick-Ass I was watching it very confused at all the changes... so it IS a good thing you could just sit back and enjoy it!

I've read the first 5 volumes of Scott Pilgrim, but I have a feeling I'm still going to enjoy the movie. Looks AWESOME!

[TheLindsayBoo]

<3 Great job! I enjoyed this episode!! Loved the dates of death... it had me cracking up! <3

[acomicbookorange]

@TheLindsayBoo Hehehe, thanks! So glad you liked the dates of death... I wikipedia'd the birth year of T'Pol to get that one right. I love that it makes no sense whatsoever ;)

[StubzTurner]

I've never read any of the Scott Pigrim comics and I had no interest in seeing the movie. That is until I saw the trailer. Now I'm wondering if I should read the comic before I see the movie, or would that kill it for me.

[acomicbookorange]

@StubzTurner That's a tough call... I found that I ruined Watchmen and Kick-Ass by reading the comic because I like to be surprised. If you like to be surprised and prefer movies to comics you might want to sit back and wait. If you like to see how the story changes and unfolds onscreen, go ahead and read the comics!

[StubzTurner]

@acomicbookorange I'm thinking I'll see the movie first and if I like it enough, than I'll start reading the comic.

[acomicbookorange]

@StubzTurner Makes sense! And, for the record, we have Scott Pilgrim a 5-orange rating... if you love video games and insanity, it's the series for you. Now to wait 4 months for the movie...

[yetidetective]

ok, i love this series, and i don't want to be one of those guys who's all, "that chick's hot, lol." but the little "mmm" sound she makes at the end gives me tingles.

sexy tingles...

[acomicbookorange]

@yetidetective Hehehe... The funny part is that I actually did more sexy "mmms" when I was recording it and this was one of the more "conservative" ones! :S

[fk4n]

I wounder, is Michael Cera a good choice for the movie?

[acomicbookorange]

@fk4n I'm not worried... everything I've seen so far looks awesome.
