I saw someone say that it’s a reflection on how she treated him, and how Scott treated Knives. He hates Envy for treating him the way she did, but then he turned around and did the same thing to Knives.
I feel kind of differently. I listen to metric's original when im in a bad bitch punk mood & brie's when im in a sexy girl indie mood Edit: despite knowing the context of the characters in the movie, this is just how it feels to listen to them to me
Also i just wanna add that i think a lot of you think like OP because youve seen both brie's acting and metric's performances so you can kind of visualize it
the casting is so fantastic in this movie that i’m convinced the casting director is psychic and knew how great everyone’s careers were gonna be after this
Only reason this movie worked for her is because envy has 1 tone, 1 thought and no need for inflection. She's also a complete bitch, all of this is perfect for Larson, she was born to play envy. Doesn't make her good. Maybe it's time for you to rewatch her in the mcu and pay attention to her acting, she's a mean Keanu reeves without the charisma.
@@reeses_unicorn My brother, now 34, just had me watch this yesterday. He's 34. I'm 15. I think.. I think I feel nostalgic. For no reason whatsoever cause I wasn't even alive.
Because it's a indie pop movie , anyone between the ages of 15-30 at the time of it's release, weither they liked games or anime or comics or getting high , they've seen this movie and have the movie or manga in some shape or form, Nowadays with the freedom of expression and body positivity , yes this would be a box office hit , but for that time, if you were in that minority it was something special to have seen and known
Today is Friday, Sept 22, 2023. If someone had told me yesterday "Brie Larson has an album" I absolutely would NOT have cared. Then I saw this and I was like "Whaaaaat?" Maybe people have been hating on Brie Larson too hard for too long... Maybe *I've* been hating on Brie Larson too hard for too long... I'm going to listen to Brie Larson's album. I'm hoping that I like it. I never knew that she did this song with Metric, and I absolutely love her version. Back in the day, I always thought Scott Pilgrim should have "Gone for that Blonde" - and now like a decade later I find out that she was Brie Larsen (!) Anyway, I think she deserves a listen - and probably a lot less hate. What an interesting and unusual day this has been.
I wish all of the bands in this movie were real. I want more Sex Bob-Omb. Tht Katainagi twins were pretty great too. Actually no, not Crash and the Boys, I hate them and wish they would die.
Weird as it may sound, I liked the scene where Scott says, "Goodbye, Natalie," and she responds, "No one ever calls me Natalie anymore." (or something similar) Written out, it sounds like she's telling him "Don't call me that," but in the scene, you could tell she was touched that he still calls her Natalie. An actual good closure scene.
In the comic she has red hair and the author didn't want them to make her blonde in the movie but they did it anyway, that's why in the anime she has red hair and not blond ;)
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World is the perfect example of an awesome graphic novel made into a amazing movie adaptation, they were able to make it feel real while still remaining true to the original.
I love how the lights come on the moment Scott and Ramona put together what’s going on, and Envy is standing there and starts singing as if to say: “Yeah, that’s how this is going to play out.”
I remember watching this movie in the theater, after this scene I was in a zone for like 10 minutes and all I could hear was her voice reverberating. Seriously one of the best covers to exist.
Ok so i literally cant stand Brie… just dont like. However in this movie i loved her acting And this Damn song has been in my head since i recntly watched this movie and today i played the original song than played her version on Scott pilgrim s v t w. And She killllllllled it I hate her i hate her damn it i respect this chick damn it damn damn… she killed the song better than the original artist damn her
She made me fall in love with this song before I’d even heard of or listened to Metric. Now I’m a Metric fan too lol. She did an amazing job with the cover.
One of the things I've always loved about this song is how perfectly it fits Scott's story. It's true that Ramona was awful to all her exes but she knows and acknowledges it to a point. With Scott, while he was awful to his exes too, rather than admit it like Ramona, he instead plays the victim and as the song says "shapeshift, and trick the past again" so that when you see the story solely from his side, everyone else looks bad. And that's one of the major points in the story is Scott finally growing up and acknowledging his mistakes. Of course, you don't get as much of all that in the movie like you do in the comics, but it's there a bit. Anyways, this is a really great song and I've always loved both Metric and Brie's versions!
IIRC, the movie was made while the fifth volume was still being written, so that element -- which ultimately made getting together with Ramona make more sense -- wound up getting lost somewhat.
In the comic Scott broke up with not long after his 'date' with Ramona where they walked through the park. The movie dragged that plot thread on throughout the whole story, where as it was a relatively minor part of the comic.
LYRICS: [Intro] Oh yeah? Oh yeah? Oh yeah! [Verse 1] Hello again Friend of a friend, I knew you when Our common goal was waiting for the world to end [Pre-Chorus] Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick the past again [Chorus] I'll send you my love on a wire Lift you up, every time Everyone, ooh, Pulls away, ooh From you [Verse 2] Got balls of steel Got an automobile For a minimum wage Got real estate, I'm buying it all up in outer space [Pre-Chorus] Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick the past again [Chorus] I'll send you my love on a wire Lift you up, every time Everyone, ooh Pulls away, ooh It's a mechanical bull, the number one You'll take a ride from anyone Everyone wants a ride Pulls away, ooh, from you
This played in cinemas couple of weeks ago. Entire cinema was full of people that looked like your average people from a comic con. Nobody talked during the screening which was very respectful BUT when this came on everyone was boppin'. Good energy.
I was gonna talk about the masterful use of shot reverse shot in the original section of the song but I really love this edit. It uses the sections of the song to match it well to their energy; the ‘oohs’ you can see the emotional transition from knives (who goes from a look of wonder to emptiness) to Ramona (drawing in with warmth but complications), the bridge creating not just tension but the feeling of Ramona almost being embarrassed and ashamed on the situation she’s been put into, at the start of the second verse it’s showing the idea how that soured vulnerability between Scott and Ramona with cuts of them avoiding eye contact, and by the lyric “You’ll take a ride from anyone” it suggests not only how Scott treats his relationships and maybe latched on to Ramona on a whim but sandwiches between that first look at her all the turmoil, fights, and heartache that moment of seeing her in person caused. It works extremely effective as a spark notes version of the movie.
No one responded yet but I wana say that was a extremely preceptive view of the video. I noticed the avoiding eye contact but i assumed it was her own view point of detaching from the audience showing her attitude of being better than them. Didn't see the cutting to Scott as anything but main character screen time. The Ooo cutting to knives was a solid catch as well.
If you haven't seen it I can heavily recommend the fan edit someone made of this exact song (I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they got the same person who made that version to make this). I can't remember the title but if you just search for "Scott Pilgrim edit" I can basically guarantee it'll show up!
It’s rare that people notice stuff like this let alone articulate it so well, this is something that I personally can’t get enough of particularly when it’s done well! This video is the best example I’ve ever seen of editing like this in my 40+ years on this planet.
I remember watching this movie with my mom and I was simping for Ramona the entire movie 😭 Also- Ramon to the blonde girl and scott: it was just a phase Lesbians: Well that’s something you don’t hear often 😀
@@oldanslo They'd likely get revenue anyway by just claiming rights. Posting it on their page just brings attention to it. It definitely helps them as I think a significant amount of people discovers Metric from this song, but it's also just a cool thing to do.
@@dulpus well i mean.. metric wrote this song. you wouldn't have brie's version or even scott pilgrim in general without them. envy was based off of emily haines, which is why they changed her hair from red to blonde in the movie to make the association more clear.
From what I heard before, since the movie was leaning more onto making the live action envy look more like emily haines, brie took inspiration from Misa for her look/costume
I agree but this movie is pretty old, Misa is 19 in the first season of Death Note and I think 24 at the end. Brie is 34 I just think somebody younger would be better suited for it.
*lyrics because i feel like it and also some ppl might want them:* hello again, friend of a friend i knew you when our common goal was waiting for the world to end now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend you crack the whip, shapeshift and trick the past again send you my love on a wire lift you up everytime, everyone, ooh pulls away ooh from you got balls of steel, got an automobile, for a minimum wage got real estate, im buying it all up in outer space now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend you crack the whip, shapeshift and trick the past again send you my love on a wire lift you up everytime, everyone, ooh pulls away ooh its a mechanical bull the number one youll take a ride from anyone everyone wants a ride pulls away ooh from you
As much as I love Brie’s vocals, it’s Metric’s writing that makes this track. I love Metric and what’s actually being said in their songs. This was so beautifully written and Brie did amazing with it.
@Macho Cabrío The artist literally admits it, “No one, including me, could get a handle on what the hell the song was about. I wrote the lyrics all at once in this full-on stream-of-consciousness moment and I couldn’t explain where all the imagery was coming from. It was plucked from the unknown” (from genius)
I think Emily Haines did a great job on the original track, it's a cool song that's on rotation in my playlists. But Brie's Performance of this track isn't just Brie Larson singing a metric song. It's Envy Adams snarking her way across the stage in all her successful glory shoving it right in Scott's face. This part of the film creates tension that ramps up as the song plays out, building up to a pretty epic fight backstage. This is her 'gotcha' song. Scott Pilgrim is, by definition, NOT a musical. But this one tiny little aspect of the film kind of is. The reason fans like this song is the same reason that we listen to tracks from Hamilton or Avenue Q(excuse me, I'm old). This is a small part of a complete character that we never saw in the film or comics. It was really cool of Metric to release the full version. Because it's not Brie stealing thunder from Emily Haines, it's the complete performance of Envy Adams posturing like a super villain.
that is an interesting take on this. I really didn't think about it this way even though I was aware of it subconsciously. thank you for pointing it out. I have a different take on it from a different angle that has nothing to do with the point you make. your point is both well taken and obviously true. I feel bad for Emily Haines because she wrote this song and has performed it for years it is in every respect her song. then along comes the movie and Brie Larson playing Envy Addams and she sings it. and her voice is just better and stronger. she sings it in Emily's style and crushes her with half the fucking song! that has got to hurt. perhaps looking at it from your perspective it is simply testament to Brie Larson's acting ability. possible. but I really do think her voice is just a bit better and stronger than Emily's. and then again WTF do I know? just my opinion and we all know what those are worth.
@@flirtyguy34 honestly i like the original better. the vocals mesh far better with the music and it feels less like the vocalist stealing the show (I'm aware that is the exact point of this scene in the movie). So I think it ends up being subjective.
@@alaricgoldkuhl155 just make sure you dislike Brie for the right reasons. A lot of people honestly hate her over a single interview that they 100% took out of context. But I respect your opinion and your right to have it.
@@momentarycumulative unsure what you mean but, for all of Brie’s shortcomings the original guy posting nailed it, this isn’t original vs movie, it’s Envy Adams vs. Scott and unfurling the rest of the story, hence it’s critical to this movie and in this case only Brie’s version with Brie Larson as Envy could pull it all off, it’s one of the many things that makes the movie perfect.
@@doopness785 I honestly can't say. It has to be somebody who is nerdy and awkward at times but also cool and somewhat adorable. Cera is nerdy and awkward but none of the rest, at all. Justin Long might have been the better choice back then. But a perfect Scott Pilgrim is yet to be found imho.

Well, this was a nice surprise! I love this video, and it's been a huge bummer that's not been available like this before. Adding it to my music videos playlist now!
Regardless of what some thought of "Scott Pilgrim vs The World", it became almost an instant cult classic, and same goes for Brie Larson's performance of Black Sheep. Great song by Metric no doubt, but Brie's version also rocks!
@@mdd04000 Sadly I've met many. I also met many who didn't like The Fifth Element, Mystery Men, and Galaxy Quest. Some people really seem to only handle the same plots and formulae over and over and over again. Thats probably why eighties music is still played in retail stores.
@@arkadeepsharma yeah, um..no shit dude. He was saying how the action is well choreographed, so I suggested John Wick, which also has very well choreographed fight scenes.
I remember seeing this in theaters multiple times in 2010 and raving to just about anyone who would listen about how good it was. Very glad to see it finally getting the recognition now that it didn't get at the box office all those years ago. Still a top favorite movie for me, even now as I've grown. Edgar Wright just knows how to make movies, man.
WAY ahead of its time, if this movie where to come out now it would be a hit, back then it seem to childish for adults and to adult for childs, sure the anime/videogames crowd eat it up but those are a minority (comic fans used to be a minority too at least up until Iron Man came out)
Regardless if you think Brie's version is better, Metric did the cool thing by posting this on their page. True artists recognize talent. Respect.

@@tedsmart5539 when did they say they shouldn't get paid????

One of the things I've always loved about this song is how perfectly it fits Scott's story. It's true that Ramona was awful to all her exes but she knows and acknowledges it to a point. With Scott, while he was awful to his exes too, rather than admit it like Ramona, he instead plays the victim and as the song says "shapeshift, and trick the past again" so that when you see the story solely from his side, everyone else looks bad. And that's one of the major points in the story is Scott finally growing up and acknowledging his mistakes. Of course, you don't get as much of all that in the movie like you do in the comics, but it's there a bit. Anyways, this is a really great song and I've always loved both Metric and Brie's versions!
IIRC, the movie was made while the fifth volume was still being written, so that element -- which ultimately made getting together with Ramona make more sense -- wound up getting lost somewhat.

Wasn't Envy the bad one in their relationship?
Envy left Scott for Todd
@@hugewang69 yea but he broke the hearts of other girls in the movie
1:15 NEIL!?!? OMGG 🔥
This Captain Marvel variant is insane.
Imagine if Captain Marvel channeled this energy
😂
I love them all
Brie galore is my fantasy
Could be possible Disney will takeover the movie industry and that’s when movies die
I love how the ending to this movie was changed because test audiences believed... Knives deserved better than Scott.
were they supposed to end up together ???? thank god that got changed 😭😭
💯
@@mildly_nitathank God she didn’t end up with Scott
@@mildly_nita Yeah you can find the alternate ending on youtube. It does feel kinda off, Knives IS too cool for him lol
In the comic Scott broke up with not long after his 'date' with Ramona where they walked through the park.
The movie dragged that plot thread on throughout the whole story, where as it was a relatively minor part of the comic.

[Intro]
Oh yeah?
Oh yeah?
Oh yeah!
[Verse 1]
Hello again
Friend of a friend, I knew you when
Our common goal was waiting for the world to end
[Pre-Chorus]
Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend
You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick the past again
[Chorus]
I'll send you my love on a wire
Lift you up, every time
Everyone, ooh,
Pulls away, ooh
From you
[Verse 2]
Got balls of steel
Got an automobile
For a minimum wage
Got real estate, I'm buying it all up in outer space
[Pre-Chorus]
Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend
You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick the past again
[Chorus]
I'll send you my love on a wire
Lift you up, every time
Everyone, ooh
Pulls away, ooh
It's a mechanical bull, the number one
You'll take a ride from anyone
Everyone wants a ride
Pulls away, ooh, from you
thank u so much

What is this aong about in reference of the movie or just this scene in particular?
I miss this movie in my highschool time, so regretful
holy shit I was just watching the other fanedited video that had like millions of views and now this drops yayyyy
Yayyyyyyyy
Everyone is amazing in this film, but Brie fuckin' outright steals the show in this scene!
For real Scott, Envy>Knives>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ramona
I agree, amazing film... but she didn't steal the show, but she sure knows how to "act" like a Bi***!
@@PeturMag love how you couldn't keep your brie larson hate boner in check and had to put " for acting lmao
@@johnsugrue4155 Love that you loved it.
But for real... the role really suited her.
She did really well.
*extra love for the lmao
This played in cinemas couple of weeks ago. Entire cinema was full of people that looked like your average people from a comic con. Nobody talked during the screening which was very respectful BUT when this came on everyone was boppin'. Good energy.
I love Bries singing voice so much, It’s kind of an unexpected sound
Brie is a goddess
@@aspen1239 Nah.
Agreed she's surprisingly good, I like her vocals more than metrics tbh, something hypnotic about her vocals.
Never expected her to be a good singer
her voice is pitch corrected.
@@josephirizarry5195 same for most famous singers 🤷♀️
2:29
It’s a mechanical bULL at nUMBER ONEEE
ugh, the way she sings this is so beautiful I can’t-
I was gonna talk about the masterful use of shot reverse shot in the original section of the song but I really love this edit. It uses the sections of the song to match it well to their energy; the ‘oohs’ you can see the emotional transition from knives (who goes from a look of wonder to emptiness) to Ramona (drawing in with warmth but complications), the bridge creating not just tension but the feeling of Ramona almost being embarrassed and ashamed on the situation she’s been put into, at the start of the second verse it’s showing the idea how that soured vulnerability between Scott and Ramona with cuts of them avoiding eye contact, and by the lyric “You’ll take a ride from anyone” it suggests not only how Scott treats his relationships and maybe latched on to Ramona on a whim but sandwiches between that first look at her all the turmoil, fights, and heartache that moment of seeing her in person caused. It works extremely effective as a spark notes version of the movie.
No one responded yet but I wana say that was a extremely preceptive view of the video. I noticed the avoiding eye contact but i assumed it was her own view point of detaching from the audience showing her attitude of being better than them. Didn't see the cutting to Scott as anything but main character screen time. The Ooo cutting to knives was a solid catch as well.
If you haven't seen it I can heavily recommend the fan edit someone made of this exact song (I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they got the same person who made that version to make this). I can't remember the title but if you just search for "Scott Pilgrim edit" I can basically guarantee it'll show up!
Take it to a publisher 😭🙏🤣💀
In a just world, this post alone of yours would earn you a Ph.D. degree.
It’s rare that people notice stuff like this let alone articulate it so well, this is something that I personally can’t get enough of particularly when it’s done well! This video is the best example I’ve ever seen of editing like this in my 40+ years on this planet.
They really make you fall in love with that pink haired gurl, huh?
Yeah, Ramona. She's hot. Actually, every female in this film is hot. The Fold is always right.
Manic Pixie Dream Girl lol
I remember watching this movie with my mom and I was simping for Ramona the entire movie 😭
Also-
Ramon to the blonde girl and scott: it was just a phase
Lesbians: Well that’s something you don’t hear often 😀
INDEED
Mary Elizabeth Winstead in my opinion is one of the most beautiful and amazing actresses 😍
It’s so cool that Metric themselves posted this version. I really appreciate them as artists.
And as businessmen since they get the revenue from youtube.
@@oldanslo They'd likely get revenue anyway by just claiming rights. Posting it on their page just brings attention to it. It definitely helps them as I think a significant amount of people discovers Metric from this song, but it's also just a cool thing to do.
In my opinion Brie preformed it better. But Metric wrote an interesting song, which raises the interest toward the original artists.
@@RMLLcrazywell it’s a cover so maybe they don’t rights unless it was part of a contract for the movie
He knocked the highlights out of her hair
brie larson's version will always be nostalgic
I never saw the movie 🤷♂️ for me Emily’s version is nostalgic. I feel like many of us feel this way.
@@brightstarlit nah bro, this is the only version accepted, who cares about Metric if more people watched this movie than heard a punk band?
@@brightstarlit I respect Metric, but for the time being, we need Brie's version to carry thru & past all this chaos. Peace.
@@dulpus wow you dont desearve to hear this song if you dont care about the band
@@dulpus well i mean.. metric wrote this song. you wouldn't have brie's version or even scott pilgrim in general without them. envy was based off of emily haines, which is why they changed her hair from red to blonde in the movie to make the association more clear.
IM SO GLAD THIS WAS ON MY RECOMMENDED
Not just you 😍
I'm thankful ughhhh
ME TOO YO
Brie would be perfect to play Misa in a live action Death Note. Especially in that outfit it’s just giving those vibes.
Fr!!
From what I heard before, since the movie was leaning more onto making the live action envy look more like emily haines, brie took inspiration from Misa for her look/costume
I agree but this movie is pretty old, Misa is 19 in the first season of Death Note and I think 24 at the end. Brie is 34 I just think somebody younger would be better suited for it.
@@marijabegonja4625makeup does wonders
She is too old for that

I am honestly addicted to this song for some reason. This vibe is just perfect for me right now.

Love that Todd is wearing a knock-off Punisher t-shirt on stage and later gets his vegan powers taken away by the Punisher.

Scott's "oh no" lives rent free in my head
As much as I love Brie’s vocals, it’s Metric’s writing that makes this track. I love Metric and what’s actually being said in their songs. This was so beautifully written and Brie did amazing with it.
Shame it took so long for the approval of the cover
@@runzumarun4925 Right, should’ve been done with everything else but the past is the past.
@@soufbayshawty just happy they did it lol. Still jam to the original since I have the movie album 😋
The lyrics are meaningless
@Macho Cabrío The artist literally admits it, “No one, including me, could get a handle on what the hell the song was about. I wrote the lyrics all at once in this full-on stream-of-consciousness moment and I couldn’t explain where all the imagery was coming from. It was plucked from the unknown” (from genius)
This is one of those jams you just cant get over
the incel neckbeards cry
Haven't even finished it and I'm over it.
@@sachindevaraj hater bro this is diff
my boyfriend disagrees 😂
BRIEFTW
I think Emily Haines did a great job on the original track, it's a cool song that's on rotation in my playlists. But Brie's Performance of this track isn't just Brie Larson singing a metric song. It's Envy Adams snarking her way across the stage in all her successful glory shoving it right in Scott's face. This part of the film creates tension that ramps up as the song plays out, building up to a pretty epic fight backstage. This is her 'gotcha' song. Scott Pilgrim is, by definition, NOT a musical. But this one tiny little aspect of the film kind of is. The reason fans like this song is the same reason that we listen to tracks from Hamilton or Avenue Q(excuse me, I'm old). This is a small part of a complete character that we never saw in the film or comics. It was really cool of Metric to release the full version. Because it's not Brie stealing thunder from Emily Haines, it's the complete performance of Envy Adams posturing like a super villain.
that is an interesting take on this. I really didn't think about it this way even though I was aware of it subconsciously. thank you for pointing it out.
I have a different take on it from a different angle that has nothing to do with the point you make. your point is both well taken and obviously true.
I feel bad for Emily Haines because she wrote this song and has performed it for years it is in every respect her song. then along comes the movie and Brie Larson playing Envy Addams and she sings it. and her voice is just better and stronger. she sings it in Emily's style and crushes her with half the fucking song! that has got to hurt.
perhaps looking at it from your perspective it is simply testament to Brie Larson's acting ability. possible. but I really do think her voice is just a bit better and stronger than Emily's. and then again WTF do I know? just my opinion and we all know what those are worth.
@@flirtyguy34 honestly i like the original better. the vocals mesh far better with the music and it feels less like the vocalist stealing the show (I'm aware that is the exact point of this scene in the movie). So I think it ends up being subjective.
Yep. I loathe Brie Larson as a human being, but adore this version for all of the reasons you have mentioned. Must be that I love Envy Adams?
@@alaricgoldkuhl155 just make sure you dislike Brie for the right reasons. A lot of people honestly hate her over a single interview that they 100% took out of context. But I respect your opinion and your right to have it.
@@momentarycumulative unsure what you mean but, for all of Brie’s shortcomings the original guy posting nailed it, this isn’t original vs movie, it’s Envy Adams vs. Scott and unfurling the rest of the story, hence it’s critical to this movie and in this case only Brie’s version with Brie Larson as Envy could pull it all off, it’s one of the many things that makes the movie perfect.
cant tell you how many times ive listened to his exact video
Scott Pilgrim vs The World is one of the greatest cinematic masterpieces. Edgar Wright is a genius.
He is amazing
Calm down kid.
If only they didn't cast Michael Cera as the lead character..
Ricardo666 who would you pick for the Role of Scott?
@@doopness785
I honestly can't say. It has to be somebody who is nerdy and awkward at times but also cool and somewhat adorable. Cera is nerdy and awkward but none of the rest, at all.
Justin Long might have been the better choice back then. But a perfect Scott Pilgrim is yet to be found imho.
Ok but why is no one talking about how she is literally cosplaying Misa Amane Editx(shit how did people actually find this?).
I know right I was like "Misa?"
I wish she had the double pigtails tho
Probably because we were talking about it when the movie came out
Oh shiiiiit. Now that you mention it she does look like she's cosplaying as her.
@@rilohoneu6030 she does

Regardless of what some thought of "Scott Pilgrim vs The World", it became almost an instant cult classic, and same goes for Brie Larson's performance of Black Sheep. Great song by Metric no doubt, but Brie's version also rocks!
Even Brie's version sounds like it was autotuned.
Thiss but the instrumentals of the original version is better ( the oohh part )
I have never met a person who disliked Scott pilgrim, I hope I never do
@@mdd04000 Sadly I've met many. I also met many who didn't like The Fifth Element, Mystery Men, and Galaxy Quest. Some people really seem to only handle the same plots and formulae over and over and over again. Thats probably why eighties music is still played in retail stores.

Very glad to see it finally getting the recognition now that it didn't get at the box office all those years ago. Still a top favorite movie for me, even now as I've grown. Edgar Wright just knows how to make movies, man.
Agreed! This movie is a fucking masterpiece! Hands down on of my favorites...I don't understand how it bombed
WAY ahead of its time, if this movie where to come out now it would be a hit, back then it seem to childish for adults and to adult for childs, sure the anime/videogames crowd eat it up but those are a minority (comic fans used to be a minority too at least up until Iron Man came out)
