Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is a 2010 Canadian-American film adaptation of the comic book series Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O'Malley. It is the third feature film directed by Edgar Wright (who also co-wrote and co-produced), and his first film not shot in his native Britain, instead being shot in Toronto, where the story of the comic takes place.The film, like its source material, is about Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera), a twenty-something slacker from Toronto who plays bass for the scrappy indie band Sex Bob-Omb, falls in love with an American girl named Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and realizes that he must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her... in a universe that acts like a real-life version of River City Ransom, where there are combo meters, written sound effects spelled out in midair, points, and extra lives.A film adaptation of the comics was proposed shortly after the first volume's release, with Wright being attached early on. Since the comic was as yet unfinished during filming, the film moves in a slightly different direction, though core elements remain the same.While critics and audiences loved the film, its extremely niche humor and style made it a difficult sell, and it didn't recoup its budget. However, it fared far better in the home market and went on to become one of the biggest cult classics of its time due to factors including Wright's filmmaking style offering a near-perfect visual translation of the story, a rare example of a retroactive All-Star Cast, and an endlessly quotable script.An anime adaptation of the comics for Netflix entered development in 2022, with Wright and O'Malley executive producing, Science Saru animating, and most of the film's cast reprising their roles. The series, titled Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, premiered on November 17, 2023.The film now has its own Shout-Out page, as it was starting to take up a lot of room. | |

Fan Dumb: Parodied in-universe a couple times: First, when Young Neil tells Knives after the Clash at Demonhead concert, "You should hear them live. They're much better live." (This is also Leaning on the Fourth Wall, since the "live" performance takes place in the film, not live.) Second, Comeau is talking to someone at the Chaos Theater and says, "Their first album isn't as good as their ... first album." (He's later seen saying, "The comic book is much better than the movie.") | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Wallace is abrasive and demeaning to Scott, though it's generally at its worst when Scott's done something to deserve it, and Wallace is pushing Scott to be a better person. He's also nothing but supportive when it comes to Scott's brutal breakup with Envy, flat-out telling his boyfriend "we don't use the E word in this house." He has a major Oh, Crap! reaction when Envy calls Scott on the phone. | |

Diabolus ex Nihilo | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_13a499b8 | comment |
Diabolus ex Nihilo: Nega-Scott. It was thinly foreshadowed earlier in the movie when Scott faced the Nega-Ninja boss in the arcade game he was playing with Knives. There are several deleted scenes with Nega-Scott showing up in a mirror whenever Scott is being a particularly horrible person, which tends to shock him out of his asshole-ness. Edgar Wright says in the commentaries of these outtakes that they were cut because they distract too much from scenes that already have a lot up in the air. | |

The Artifact | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_13d7a65e | comment |
How Scott defeats Roxy — by hitting her "weak spot" in the back of her knees, something that Ramona learned about back when they were dating — is a rework of a bit from the comics where Scott defeats Envy in the same way, this weakness being something he learned when they were dating (this is a holdover from an early draft of the script where Envy and Roxy were made the same character). | |

Calling Your Bathroom Breaks | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_13e693f4 | comment |
Calling Your Bathroom Breaks: Scott does this a lot, probably to express how profoundly socially inept he can be despite everything. At one point, his mental spinner for responding to awkward situations gets stuck between "I have to pee" and "Who, her?", resulting in the unfortunate "I have to pee on her." | |

Genre Savvy | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Scott displays this during his fight with Todd - Not only does he figure out that he could weaken Todd by getting him to consume non-vegan food and drink, but when he makes this move, he thinks very hard about putting the half & half milk into the cup he's holding to his chest after already putting soy into the cup he was offering Todd, to confuse Todd's telepathy and get him to fall for it. Even earlier in that fight, he asks Ramona for the "CliffsNotes" on the guy in the hopes that some crucial detail in his backstory may be helpful. Wallace too; when Matthew Patel comes crashing in, he's the one who yells for Scott to fight. By the time the second ex comes along, Wallace already has an attitude of Seen It All indifference (or he could just be sad that Scott has to defeat his "hetero crush"). | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The film makes vague references to the backstories of its supporting characters. The details given line up with what's presented in the graphic novels, so it can be inferred that those character histories can be taken as true within the movie's continuity as well. One assumes, for instance, that the reason the film's Julie and Envy seem close (at least, relative to Julie and everyone else) is that, as true in the books, they were roommates in university (though in the novels, Julie hated Envy at the time, and is only being friendly now because she's famous). Perhaps the biggest omission in the movies is the fact that Scott is the best fighter in the province. It makes sense that he can fight so well if you know that, but given it was a one-time line in the books and not in the movie at all, his combat prowess seems to come, not out of nowhere, but from playing video games. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: Many critics, cast members, and even creator Bryan Lee O'Malley have claimed that the film, to a certain degree, may be from Scott's point of view, explaining all the weird, video game stuff happening and why nobody seems to react to supernatural powers and people dying (because it didn't really happen). O'Malley even told Jason Schwartzmann not to worry about crafting a realistic character, but instead playing Scott's flanderized version of Gideon. Other possible effects of Scott's viewpoint perverting the film include Innocent Inaccurate, in-universe Flanderization of the entire cast, to Scott (and the film) being oblivious of any Character Development or Hero of Another Story in those around him (turning everyone into a Satellite Character who live only to worry about him), and, of course, maybe it was All Just a Dream and none of it ever really happened. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Reshoots were done in early 2010, partially to address poor test screening responses to the original ending. The current ending, in which Scott ends up together with Ramona, was part of this reshoot. The original ending, in which Scott goes back to Knives, is included on the DVD. As well, director Edgar Wright hoped to film a DVD-exclusive gag ending, never intended to be taken seriously, in which the whole movie was All Just a Dream...until a news report reveals that a certain Toronto resident and his girlfriend have been arrested in connection with the murders of seven people, including a film star, a record producer, and three beloved musicians. Time ran out before this could be shot, unfortunately. | |

Single Woman Seeks Good Man: The reason Ramona fell for Scott, at least on the surface. May be a case of an Informed Attribute, since Scott may be polite, but he's pretty short on good characteristics. She only calls him, "The nicest guy she's ever dated," but that's not saying much. See Classical Antihero. | |

Overly Narrow Superlative | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_1d8733d3 | comment |
Overly Narrow Superlative: Many people (including a NY Times reviewer) have described this film as the best video game movie ever made without actually being based on a video game. Kotaku: The reviewer explains that yes, it is based on a comic book, but that its heavy use of gaming culture in-jokes and tropes makes it a good video game movie, particularly if one thinks The Wizard or Gamer are also video game movies. Within the film, Ramona describes Scott as "the nicest guy I've ever dated". She's only dated seven other people, and she repeatedly calls all of them evil. Well, she's dated seven people who turned out to be evil. She may have dated others who just...didn't end up evil. In the comic she briefly mentions dating a guy who wasn't evil, he was just a dick. | |

Stealth Pun | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_1e7c47ab | comment |
Stealth Pun: In one of the subtler examples of Arc Number in this movie, Roxy Richter ("Evil Ex #4") is represented by four X's in the opening credits, and Ramona repeatedly tells Scott that she has "four exes" whenever Scott incorrectly says "four ex-boyfriends". Ramona's relationship with Roxy was her sole lesbian relationship — in other words, the only relationship between two people with two X-chromosomes, or "four X's". | |

Punch-Clock Villain | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_20860a0e | comment |
Punch-Clock Villain: Zig-zagged; Lucas Lee was originally one in the novel, but seems to be just as hellbent on destroying Scott as the other Evil Exes in the movie. One brief moment during their fight sequence alludes to this, however - after knocking Scott out, he turns to Ramona and casually asks, "What's up? How's life? He seems nice." Then he launches Scott into the tower of the nearby set. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: In the graphic novel, Lucas Lee was a Punch-Clock Villain who took a break in a middle of a fight with Scott to shoot the shit and share his snacks. In the movie, he's as evilly hammy as all the other evil exes (although he's likely just acting and is not actually evil. Still as hammy, though). The graphic novel has Envy's motivations eventually be revealed as a desire for acceptance that grew out of control, and she dumped Scott because he had no ambition and didn't want to leave Toronto. They eventually reconciled. The movie retains Envy's concern for Scott's wellbeing (as she tried to talk him out of fighting Todd), but she mostly ends up being a jealous, envious bitch from start to finish. In the movie also makes the breakup entirely one-sided on Envy's behalf, while in the comic it becomes clear Scott wasn't fully innocent as far as their relationship went but was in denial about this fact. | |

Skip a few scenes, and Scott orders two alcoholic beverages, to which Ramona states she thought he didn't drink. He comes back with "Only on special occasions," the occasion being angsting over having to fight her evil exes. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The outfits Sex Bob-omb wear at the end are identical to what they're wearing for their show in Volume 3. There are multiple cameos by Honest Ed's, a historical bargain store that served as a major location in the graphic novel but wasn't written into the film. The two dragons summoned by the film's Katayanagi Twins were not involved in the book's version of their battle with Scott, but resemble the dragons surrounding Volume 4's logo (itself a reference to a logo for Double Dragon). Julie lists a Lisa and a Holly as the girls Scott has had flings with, with both names taken from supporting characters of the graphic novels cut from the film (though neither had a previous sexual history with Scott). Lisa Miller was Scott's platonic best friend in high school, who came to Toronto in a major subplot of Volume 4 and almost hooked up with Scott (their past is partially seen in the [adult swim] Animated Adaptation), while Holly was Kim's roommate. Scott's mug in the beginning has the picture of Ramona's cat from the comic, Gideon, on it. Flashbacks and Stephen Stills's drawings are done in Bryan Lee O'Malley's art style. When the Vegan Police show up during the Todd fight to strip him of his powers, Todd asks what he's done wrong (other than drink half-and-half). The Police mention gelato (how he broke veganism in the comics) and chicken Parmesan (which Envy asked them about in the comics). Wallace mentions that Lucas Lee is in Toronto filming a "Winifred Hailey movie," referring to a female teenage movie star featured in a 2006 short Scott Pilgrim story released for Free Comic Book Day. The hair colors Ramona goes through are a reference to Edgar Wright's Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy. Gideon’s glasses glow up when he whips out the pixel sword during the final battle, mimicking his Scary Shiny Glasses in the comics. His long hair also covers his right eye at the end, like his comic design. | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: This movie is loaded with them. To the director at least, a melanistic squirrel running through the background is one of the most consistently interesting parts of the movie. Scott's desperate dive through the window of his apartment to evade Knives. Then reaching back in the window to grab his coat. Then walking down the sidewalk right behind her. All while Wallace is nonchalantly telling her that she just missed him (and his body movements actually expose Scott behind him rather than hide him). At Gideon's party, you can hear Comeau say "The comic book is always better than the movie." The amps during band practice at Stephen Stills' house are apparently of the "Lame Brand" company, with the logo emulating the Rock Band font. Once they move up to the Chaos Theatre, the amps are adorned "Sweet Brand". While on the bus after the first evil ex fight, the street lights are shaped as X's behind Ramona, and like hearts behind Scott. After the shot where Scott understands that he and Ramona are actually dating, the street lights behind Ramona change into hearts as well. After Gideon blows up, whilst Stephen Stills is scrabbling around to collect as much of Scott's winnings as he can, Neil simply bends down, picks up Gideon's gum, then puts it in his mouth. In fact, pretty much any time Neil is in the background is an example of this. Watch the movie once just to pay attention to him. After Scott kills Todd the vegan police can be seen in the background giving each other a high five and shouting "Yeah!" triumphantly as they walk back to their Smart car in slow motion. Plenty of sound-related gags. Many scenes have significant moments underscored by scene-relevant sound effects; for example, Sonic Boom's alarm goes off every time Envy is shown on-screen. Negascott whistles "We Are Sex Bob-Omb" after he walks out of frame. When Scott's in the bathroom, part of the pee gauge can be seen in the mirror. | |

Julie's profane rant at Scott in the Second Cup uses this, as well as a bar blocking potential lip reading. Becomes even more hilarious when Scott lampshades this and asks "How are you doing that with your mouth?" (even though Scott was able to do this himself in Scott Pilgrim vs. the Animation). Later on, Envy pulls this on Julie. | |

Bring My Brown Pants: When Scott lands on the ground after being thrown high up into the air by Todd: "If I peed my pants, can we just pretend I got wet in the rain?" (Unfortunately for him, it wasn't raining at the time.) When Gideon compliments Sex Bob-omb on their set, Stephen wets himself (as made evident by a big word "PEE" and a helpful arrow), though it's more from overwhelming joy than fear. | |

Hammerspace: Played with: Ramona stores her mallet in a Bag of Holding. Parodied: Ramona gives Scott a paper slip with her number within a second of his asking; Gideon pulls a pen and contract for Sex Bob-Omb out of nowhere; while off-screen for two whole seconds, Ramona apparently walks out of the club, creates a laminated list of her exes per Scott's request, and returns to hand it to him. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: Lynette, the drummer of The Clash at Demonhead, is reduced to a background character with no lines, and the subplot of Todd cheating on Envy with her is taken out. This means that aspects of her subplot were transferred to other characters — for example, Todd punches the highlights out of Knives' hair instead of Lynette, and Envy kicking Todd in the crotch and saying "Let's both be girls" after the reveal that he's cheating on her is transferred to Ramona doing the same thing to Gideon in the final fight. Mr. Chau (Knives' deadly father who hunts down Scott in Volume 4) never appears in the film, as his entire subplot was omitted. Knives' mother was originally going to appear in a flashback just like the comic, but the scene was cut out of the final film. Ramona's bag vanishes without much fanfare in the movie, Ramona just not having it in the final confrontation with Gideon Graves, and his control over her is through an implant. In the original story, Scott finds a Subspace portal into Ramona's mind inside the bag, and discovers a mental Ramona who is in bondage and enslaved by a super-Gideon. As a result, Ramona does almost nothing during the final confrontation with Gideon except fight Knives in the first attempt, and get kicked round like a rag-doll in the second. | |

Pac Man Fever: Averted—Young Neil appears to be accurately playing The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past on his DS, and Scott's lame pick-up monologue about the history of Pac-Man is mostly accurate. Apart from all the random video game noises, this is also averted with the one game we see: "Ninja Ninja Revolution" actually looks like a real arcade game (although some of the moves the characters use to play it are unrealistically acrobatic and, frankly, unnecessary). | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Scott knocks Gideon away, then stops to have a chat. He is then stabbed through the chest by Gideon. Clearly Talking Is NOT A Free Action. When Gideon is defeated, $7 billion in coins falls all over the characters and their equipment. It appears to be painful. After Sex-Bob-Omb realized they aren't getting paid now that their boss is dead, they scoop up as many coins as possible. | |

No Smoking | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_3f238526 | comment |
No Smoking: As a running joke in the comics, Scott considers smoking to be a habit indicating pure evil. The film attempted to adapt the gag: Scott would react to Ramona's own smoking habit with shock, and Lucas Lee would constantly smoke with a floating black censor bar (similar to Julie's when she swears) covering up the cigarette. The former ended up a deleted scene; the latter was abandoned after test footage (found on the Blu-Ray) proved it looked too silly. As a result, no one smokes in the film. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Particularly tricky example, since almost every element of the resolution has a good and bad interpretation. The League are defeated and Scott and Ramona are free to pursue a relationship less hindered by the ghosts of the past, they make a good couple to begin with, and the continue screen suggests an intentionally ambiguous resolution. Our poor woobie Knives is left out in the cold, but, as she says, she's probably better off in the long run without Scott. The band lost out on their big break, but then again, being contracted to a guy like Gideon probably wouldn't have ended well anyway (and besides, there's all those coins left over in the Chaos Theatre to be scooped up). What kind of ending we have is all in how you slice it. Though there is an alternate ending on the DVD that has Ramona and Scott go their separate ways and while Scott goes off with Knives instead. Doesn't make the end any less bittersweet, but at least the alternate ending exists. | |

Damsel in Distress: Ramona, after it's revealed that Gideon is manipulating her through a microchip, robbing her of any resistance to him. There was a bit of slave Leia to her near the end, possibly unintentional. It might look unintentional due to Adaptation Decay, but this imagery is a lot more explicit in the books, including a subtle Stealth Pun on the word "subspace". | |

Sound-Effect Bleep: Julie's profane rant at Scott in the Second Cup uses this, as well as a bar blocking potential lip reading. Becomes even more hilarious when Scott lampshades this and asks "How are you doing that with your mouth?" (even though Scott was able to do this himself in Scott Pilgrim vs. the Animation). Later on, Envy pulls this on Julie. Amp feedback in the scene before the Katayanagi Twins battle obscures Stephen's use of "cock" in the sentence "You know how I feel about girls cock-blocking the rock." The DVD trivia track reveals this was done to avoid an R rating. | |

Love Dodecahedron: Scott, who has previously been with Kim and Envy (who brutally broke up with him), leaves Knives for Ramona. Knives dates Young Neil in an attempt to get Scott jealous and notice her. Ramona also has the seven evil exes who want to control Ramona's love life, one of whom Envy left Scott for. Near the end it seems Ramona's falling back for the 7th evil ex, which leads Scott to fight him for Ramona and Knives to to fight Ramona for revenge for stealing Scott from her. Besides, Scott's sister is dating Jimmy who ends up in a gay trio with Other Scott and Wallace who also has a platonic crush on Ramona's ex-boyfriend Lucas Lee. | |

Manic Pixie Dream Girl | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_46290b93 | comment |
Manic Pixie Dream Girl: Somewhat arguable, since Ramona tends to keep Scott at a distance, but an interviewer has suggested this trope is true of Ramona. If going by the idea that the film is from Scott's perspective, thus robbing other characters of Character Development due to his self-obsession (see the Pragmatic Adaptation entry), then it's certainly possible Scott sees Ramona as a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, and this shallow idea of her thus spills into the film's depiction. | |

Informed Attractiveness | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_4864031b | comment |
Informed Attractiveness: Ramona Flowers. Although said by Scott to be his dream girl, obviously desired by many other men and women and she is very pretty, it's laid on a little thick to the point that no other girl in the entire film can apparently size up to her beauty. | |

Wrong Guy First | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_4f10672d | comment |
Wrong Guy First: Played with. Scott has a sweet chemistry with Knives (while retaining his Jerkass tendencies, he even comments to his sister that he's not sure if he's doing it because he wants to or because he's going crazy) until he sees Ramona Flowers for the first time. After that he grows even more callous with Knives until he finally (sort of) dumps her. Towards the end of the movie, after some serious growing up on the part of Scott, he and Knives work in-tandem to brutally beat the snot out of Gideon. Ironically, Scott is finally grown up enough to be with the 17-year old girl. Of course, I Want My Beloved to Be Happy kicks in about this point, leaving Knives as The Woobie, albeit an Iron Woobie. In the alternate ending contained in the DVD deleted scenes, Ramona initiates an I Want My Beloved to Be Happy at the end of the movie and leaves so that Scott can be with Knives. | |

Painting the Medium | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_5009999d | comment |
Painting the Medium: Stylistic elements, captions, and Unsound Effects—for actual sounds—are projected on screen and treated as if they're physically real. In one fight scene, a "SMAK" caption comes up and shatters. In the next shot, the remains of it can be seen scattered behind Scott. A more conventional example is when the movie keeps cutting from one scene to another, with the implication Scott has been completely zoned out for the intervening time. This mirrors the graphic novels, where if the reader doesn't see it happen, Scott doesn't know about it. "How are you doing that with your mouth?" When Ramona blocks Roxy's kick, in the shot where she reaches towards the camera, her fingers extend past the letterbox, giving the illusion she's reaching through the screen. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Appropriate, since it's a movie based on a comic based on video games: During the final battle, Gideon kills Scott. Due to the 1-up he received earlier, Scott is able to come back to life with no ill effects and comes back wiser and more mature to boot. | |

Book Ends: The film begins and ends with snippets of 8-bit music; it begins with the Universal Logo Joke (see below), and ends with an 8-bit rendition of Sex Bob-omb's "Threshold". Internally, the Street Fighter "K.O.!" announcements only occur on Scott's first and final victories. Ninja Ninja Revolution, in two ways. Knives and Scott play the game with flawless teamwork near the start of the film... Come the final battle, their teaming up to beat down on Gideon is set up as a real-life NNR game. The alternate ending features Knives and Scott together playing NNR. Scott giving Neil his bass. Literally during the fight with Patel (by throwing it at him), then figuratively during the fight with Gideon (by officially giving Neil his spot as The Sex Bob-Omb's bassist). In Scott's first fight with Matthew Patel, the latter yells Scott's name when he first arrives to fight. The same happens when Scott arrives at the Chaos Theatre. Scott being in a desert, bemoaning his being "so alone". It happens near the start in a dream when Scott sees Ramona for the first time, and again during the final battle when Scott is killed. Both times make good use of Ramona saying "You're not alone." | |

Affably Evil: Lucas has shades of this, making small talk with Ramona after before tossing Scott into a castle, signing an autograph for Wallace, and remarking that Scott seems like a nice guy. This is a holdover from the comic, where he was more of an "edgy" than "evil" ex. | |

Let's Get Dangerous!: Scott acts goofy, but shows some of this in the Evil Exes fights, especially against Patel: One for Sex Bob-omb as a group (they're little more than a garage band) when they face off against the Katayanagi Twins, whose amps and keyboard music are so awesome that they blow off the roof and summon twin dragons with The Power of Rock to blow away Sex Bob-omb's stage. Surely it's all over for them, but suddenly they get back up, continue their song, and summon a giant yeti to pound the crap out of the dragons. | |

Scott is even to pretty quickly resolve their conflict simply by having a conservation with him, at the end of which the two of them agree to be friends. | |

Hero of Another Story: Edgar Wright stated that in his mind, there's another entire movie going on - which he described as "Stephen Stills' Almost Famous" - that the audience only occasionally intersects with. The Vegan Police are apparently shooting their own Summer Blockbuster, the climax of which comes when they locate and de-veganize Todd Ingram (note the two of them doing a slow-motion jumping high-five after Pilgrim offs him). | |

My Girl Is Not a Slut: Kim's apparent disapproval that Ramona dated twins (at the same time), and a drunken Scott asking if she's slept with everyone in the room. Ramona takes it very personally. Probably not brought up because Scott has a sizable number of exes himself: Lisa, Holly, Kim, Natalie/Envy, Knives, and Ramona. Scott's sister mistook Ramona for having eleven evil ex's, which Scott corrects to seven. "Oh, that's not that bad then." | |

Ramona has dated seven people and dumped them all, causing them to form a league to fight any of her future suitors. Wallace wrangles an increasingly large selection of men including Stacey's boyfriend. It's implied that this has happened before. By the end of the film, he's got two of them in his bed at once. | |

There Was a Door: Subverted. Todd knocks Scott through quite a few walls and looks through the resulting holes menacingly...and then proceeds to use the door to reach Scott anyways. By Offscreen Teleportation. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The supporting cast, especially the female characters (with the exception of Knives), don't get much of their character development from the books. But when you cram a six-volume graphic novel series into a two-hour movie, something's gotta give. Notably, one of the major themes of the books is Scott learning that other people have their own lives outside of his, while in the film, everyone's moon orbits Planet Scott to such a degree that reviews and cast members have suggested the film takes place entirely within his own head. | |

Death Glare | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_627264e0 | comment |
Death Glare: Todd's default expression. Takes the form of the Kubrick Stare when he's first seen, sans-smile. Kim Pine, especially as played by Allison Pill, looks like she could melt steel with her eyes much of the time, especially during the Battle of the Bands. Envy's entire group does this in unison backstage when Knives tries to speak up. Topped off with a large "GLARE" subtitle above them. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: During Scott's fight with Matthew Patel, if you pay attention, one of the fireballs burns Crash and the Boys, turning them into skeletons; explains why Sex Bob-Omb won by default. The excuses that come to Scott's mind in the form of a wheel of fortune when Ramona asks how old Knives is are mostly unreadable without pausing the movie. They include: "She's nobody", "She's forty!", "Idiot!", "No speaka English", "When's dinner?", "Uh...", "Tell Pac Man story", "No, you are", "Pass out", and "It was nothing". In the record store, in addition to the "Pop/Rock" label you'll see in any record store, you'll also see things like "Math Rock" and "Sadcore", both of which are real sub-genres of indie rock. In that same store, the only visible CD between Knives and Scott when he breaks up with her is Beck's Modern Guilt. Funny coincidence, because Beck wrote and composed many songs for the movie, and performed the full version of the Ramona song. During the scene between Scott and Ramona on the bus, look carefully behind each character's head when the camera focuses on them. All the lights in the background on Ramona's shots are X-shaped, while in Scott's shots they are heart-shaped. Until Scott asks if they are actually dating. Then it's hearts on both sides. During the fight with the Katyanagi twins, when the camera pans up to see the hole in the roof, the audience gets a view of the moon with a hole in it as described in earlier exposition. | |

Forced Orgasm: This is how Scott defeats Roxy Richter. Unable to overcome her fighting skills even with Ramona's help, Ramona (who it turns out has been... intimate with her) shouts for Scott to touch the back of Roxy's knee as she prepares to ax-kick him. He does... and cue an intense Immodest Orgasm from Roxy as she explodes into coins. | |

The Power of Love: Scott Pilgrim gains this "superpower", in the form of a sword popping out of his chest, but he loses it in the process of the final battle. Then he dies, and tries again with the Power of Self-Respect. He does better, but still can't cut it: in the end it's The Power of Friendship (teaming up with Knives) that wins the day. | |

Meaningful Echo | |

Meaningful Echo: Just before meeting Roxy for the first time, Scott is haunted by a number of earlier, throwaway lines (e.g. "it's sudden death now," "she's got battle scars") when the seven evil exes thing is really starting to sink in. This also happened when Scott came back from death due to the extra life that he picked up after the fight with the Katayanagi Twins. Right before he realized this, Ramona's first line in the movie ("You're not alone.") is echoed. | |

The graphic novel has Envy's motivations eventually be revealed as a desire for acceptance that grew out of control, and she dumped Scott because he had no ambition and didn't want to leave Toronto. They eventually reconciled. The movie retains Envy's concern for Scott's wellbeing (as she tried to talk him out of fighting Todd), but she mostly ends up being a jealous, envious bitch from start to finish. In the movie also makes the breakup entirely one-sided on Envy's behalf, while in the comic it becomes clear Scott wasn't fully innocent as far as their relationship went but was in denial about this fact. | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication: Without an explanation playing into the climax (as it did in Volume 6, which was being written while the movie was in production), the concept of "subspace" is essentially downgraded to a handwave for why Ramona appeared in Scott's dream. Subspace, and its random doors popping up, could probably have been cut altogether if it wouldn't have caused the fans to revolt. | |

Shout-Out to Shakespeare: The creature summoned by Sex Bob-Omb against the Katayanagis was officially named the "Green-Eyed Monster," after the Shakespearean phrase to describe jealousy. Also notice that Scott's eyes are glowing green in this scene. | |

Invincibility Power-Up | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_7db2e3e0 | comment |
Invincibility Power-Up: Considering the Power of Self-Respect has its own little theme tune, and tears though Gideon's mooks like nothing else, it has a couple of Super Star elements. Shame it gets shattered during Round Two with Gideon. | |

Aspect Ratio Switch | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_7e680062 | comment |
Aspect Ratio Switch: The film switches between 1.85:1 (most scenes) and 2.39:1 (some scenes). In Scott's first dream of Ramona in the desert, the screen zooms out to 2.39:1 when he says he's "so alone" to emphasize his isolation. In his fight against Matthew Patel, the aspect ratio changes to 2.39:1 as he blocks the latter's first attack to emphasize the moment. | |

Attack Its Weak Point: The back of the knees, in this case. Ramona giving this advice to Scott is how he's able to defeat Roxy; one small tap of that area is enough to trigger an orgasm so intense that it kills her. | |

Oh, and his bass is stolen too. Followed by him seeing some guy's junk, presumably. | |

Stalker with a Crush | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_8b68d9a7 | comment |
Stalker with a Crush: All three points of the Love Triangle exhibit this trait - Knives is this with Scott (even while dating, though that could simply be her way of trying to bond with her boyfriend) at first, and then it is turned up to eleven after they break up. Scott stalks Ramona both prior to meeting her (partially in a sequence lampshaded with subtitles calling him out on it), and during their early courtship. Finally, Ramona admits that she was the equivalent of Knives in regards to Gideon and that she moved to Toronto to escape that mindset. Wallace does this somewhat, outright telling Scott that he's off to stalk Lucas because he's attracted to him. | |

Battle Discretion Shot: During the fight against Lucas Lee, the stunt doubles start ganging up and kicking the crap out of Scott, and Lucas himself walks off to get some coffee. The camera follows him for the twenty seconds it takes to get to the production assistant and get the coffee, and when Scott calls his name, the camera pans back over to Scott standing over the bodies of all the stunt doubles. No indication is given as to how Scott turned the situation around. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: Scott breaks up with Knives — a girl who practically worships the ground he walks on — not for anything she did, but so that he could date an aloof woman he's been lusting after. He gets the girl alright, but doing so means that he has to face against all of her ex-boyfriends (and ex-girlfriend) who intend kill him just to inconvenience Ramona. Stacey, with a big smirk, tries to manipulate the conversation so that Ramona and Knives discover that Scott is dating them both. A moment later, Wallace steals her boyfriend. | |

| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_9591377d | comment |
Heel Realization: Scott realizes that his relationship problems come from his laziness and tendency to deflect all his mistakes as non-issues. While having Gideon on the ropes Knives attacks Ramona thinking she stole him away from her. Scott tries to mitigate the issue by dancing around the fact he was cheating on Knives with Ramona, which only opens him to up be stabbed by Gideon. Ramona tells him in the "afterlife" that while he tried to fight for her she may not have been the person he should have be fighting for, and he uses his 1-Up to confront Gideon again. This also allows him to replace his Power of Love Sword with one symbolizing Self-Respect, and instead of deflecting his mistakes he openly admits he did wrong by both girls. | |

555: Averted with Ramona's number: it's an actual number that Universal owns, for films that are too cool to use 555 numbers. It can also be seen in Munich and The Adjustment Bureau. Played straight, however, in the Lucas Lee movie (Cold Call) that Wallace watched. | |

Focus Group Ending | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_991c2873 | comment |
Focus Group Ending: Audiences didn't like the original ending with Scott and Knives getting together because, as Knives says in the ending actually used, she's "too good for him", and it made the whole fight for Ramona pointless. The ending was then changed so that Scott and Ramona end up together. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The last thing Scott does before he begins fighting Ramona's evil exes is unplug his bass and throw it to Neil. At another moment, Scott leaves with Ramona in the middle of a rehearsal, and says Neil knows his parts. Later in the film, Scott formally quits the band, and Neil replaces him as a direct result of Scott's fights. During the title sequence, each billed actor has images of their character traits and motifs in the background during their card (corresponding numbers for the evil exes, cell phone battery for Kieran Culkin as Wallace, sai for Ellen Wong/Knives, etc.) When Scott is asking people at the party for information on Ramona, one person says "She has men dying at her feet", which pretty much happens to Scott and maybe some of the other exes. The one boss Scott can't beat in Ninja Ninja Revolution is the Nega-Ninja. And then Knives adds "Don't beat yourself up about it". After the Roxy fight, Ramona grabs the back of her neck and we hear a metallic whine just before she tells Scott "I think we should split". | |

Left the Background Music On: Happens more than once. When Scott is staring at Ramona in the real world for the first time, and a low bassline is playing, the scene then shifts to when Scott is performing. Stephen replies "Scott! You played one note for that entire song!" And again when Scott realizes he never broke up with Knives at the Rockit and she shows up in front of Ramona. It sounds like his heart is racing and he runs away. The beat is the host hitting the microphone. | |

When Ramona expounds on her previous statement of "not being able to control herself" around Gideon by explaining that — by means of mind control through a neck chip — she literally has no self-control around him, Scott describes it as "evil". | |

World of Weirdness: The world of the film is governed by rules of video games (Especially from the 8-Bit era and Coin-Ops) with a dose of surrealism and pure fantasy. It's also a beyond brutal world with a very jaded view of life and death, where murder seems to be no worse than a school yard fight. And there are Vegan Police. | |

Adaptation Dye-Job: Envy Adams is a redhead in the books and a blonde in the film. Knives also dyes her hair blue in the film instead of red. The back cover of book two shows Todd with brown hair opposed to the film's grey color (although that appears to be a literal dye-job). Also, Young Neil was blond in the books, but in the movie he is dark haired. | |

Mood Whiplash: Todd punching Knives is a genuinely shocking moment, which makes the humorous lines immediately afterward a little awkward. Really though, Mood Whiplash is what this movie is all about, with jarring over the top action sequences suddenly slamming into the middle of otherwise benign scenes, usually with no warning. Hilariously showcased with the cut between the night at Ramona's and... Seinfeld. | |

Superior Twin Teamwork | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_a5ff88ac | comment |
Superior Twin Teamwork: Subverted in the Sex Bob-ombs' battle against the Katayanagi twins. The twins' coordinated and synchronized attack of summoning a double dragon of sound at first overwhelms Scott and the Sex Bob-ombs, but it doesn't last. Scott's fury that Ramona came to the concert with Gideon and him hitting the amp allows for him to counter with his own sound beast. This is a small departure from the comic book, where the twins explicitly have Wonder Twin Powers via the move "Twin-Link" (they still lose in that version, though). | |

Ascended Extra | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Neil is featured more prominently in the film, being treated more as the band's roadie than as just a hanger on. He even takes over on bass after Scott quits. Knives' role is also greatly increased compared to her role in the novels. As explained by Edgar Wright, Knives' arc in the novels reached something of a climax when she battled Ramona in the second volume; the film, by tying this into the final fight against Gideon, increases Knives' significance almost by accident. In the alternate ending, this gets the obvious pay-off... Scott chooses her. | |

Classical Antihero: Scott. Broke, no job, no education, no self confidence, lies to his high school age girlfriend. Most of the other characters have something going on note Steven, Kim, and Neil have the band, which Scott isn't dedicated enough too. Knives has school. Ramona, Julie, and Stacy have jobs. Envy, Todd, and the Katayanagi Twins have their own musical acts. Gideon has the Chaos Theater. Lucas Lee is a famous actor and extreme athlete. The film never reveals what Matthew Patel, Roxy, or Wallace do. but Scott doesn't seem to do anything except stalk Ramona and hang out. He's a good fighter. That's about it. | |

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: For the most of the film, Scott appears to be really wimpy and nonthreatening. However, whenever an Evil Ex shows up, Scott suddenly takes a level in badass and beats the crap out of them. This is a departure from the graphic novel, where it's explicitly stated early on that Scott is the "Best Fighter in the Province". In the movie, he could very well still be an accomplished martial artist, but his nebbish personality makes it seem unlikely. | |

Weirdness Censor: Nobody seems to give much thought to people having incredible martial arts skills, exploding into coins, or being able to summon giant monsters with The Power of Rock. The one point in the movie where someone thinks something genuinely weird is going on is when Stacey sees Matthew Patel break into song and dance. And that's mostly because it's genuinely weird. That, and when Julie starts swearing and a black Censorship rectangle covers her mouth, the others do take notice. "How are you doing that?" | |

Oh, Crap!: "Wait... mystical powers?!" A light-hearted version occurs when Scott makes garlic bread for Ramona. Wallace has one of these moments when Scott gets a phone call from a certain someone... While in the coffee shop talking to Ramona... When Scott and Ramona go to see The Clash at Demonhead, during the intro to "Black Sheep". Gideon gets one at the end of his fight with Scott, after he backhands Ramona. He turns around to see a very, very pissed off Scott and Knives, who proceed to beat the shit out of him. | |

Rearrange the Song: During one of their dates, Scott plays Ramona a love song he wrote about her named "Ramona". After he plays it, Ramona asks to hear it when it's finished, prompting Scott to ask "Finished?" After the two break up, a slightly more developed Dark Reprise of the song plays, and a fully developed reprise of the song plays over the end credits. | |

Take That! | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Gideon and Sex Bob-Omb play a big part in a Take That! against big stereotypical music labels that pump out music for the sake of money without caring about artistic integrity. Stephen signs the band to Gideon simply cause they're offered loads of cash and recognition, even though Gideon is pretty obviously a big Jerkass. Scott, knowing better, quits the band cause he doesn't want to sell out to him. The song Sex Bob-omb plays when Scott first enters the club is aptly titled "No Fun". When the first round of Scott's final battle with Gideon begins, Gideon demands Sex Bob-Omb to play a pretty cool but still largely generic tune while Kim, completely unmotivated, proclaims they're playing to sell out. Once Round 2 begins however, witnessing Scott finally gain his own self-respect and ultimately become the better man, the band finally comes to realize that there is more than just money and fame, and with their own freedom, they play the same song but this time taken up to eleven. | |

Hypocritical Humor | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_b707726f | comment |
Although many conflate the movie with hipsterism, others consider it a Take That against hipsters, what with Gideon's "I'm cooler/better than you" villain rant, and Todd/Natalie explaining that "being a vegan just makes you better than everyone." Not to mention the final battle theme is titled "Death to All Hipsters". Of course, anyone who thinks it isn't possible to both be hipstery and be anti-hipster clearly doesn't understand hipsters. | |

Love Triangle | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_b7e0c5ff | comment |
All three points of the Love Triangle exhibit this trait - Knives is this with Scott (even while dating, though that could simply be her way of trying to bond with her boyfriend) at first, and then it is turned up to eleven after they break up. Scott stalks Ramona both prior to meeting her (partially in a sequence lampshaded with subtitles calling him out on it), and during their early courtship. Finally, Ramona admits that she was the equivalent of Knives in regards to Gideon and that she moved to Toronto to escape that mindset. | |

Demoted to Extra | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_b8e3f20a | comment |
Demoted to Extra: Kim Pine, compared to her more involved role in the books (mostly because her backstory has been moved to the [adult swim] Animated Adaptation). Envy Adams gets quite a bit cut out as well, since her fight with Ramona is cut and is compacted into Ramona's fight with Roxy Richter. She is completely absent in the climax and her role is merged with Ramona's. Richter herself gets quite a bit cut out; she almost got a complete axing when Edgar Wright considered depositing Envy into her role as Ramona's 4th ex. Nega-Scott gets the axe from playing a pivotal role in the books to being reduced to a mere punchline in the movie. Lynette Guycott, although having a minor but pivotal role, gets barely minutes of screen time, and her punching the highlights out of Knives' hair was designated to Todd. Finally, the Twins are almost cut out entirely, as they have zero lines (their actors don't speak English), zero backstory, and probably the least screen-time of any of the exes, only seemingly being in the movie because they are exes number 5 and 6 respectively. | |

Ironic Echo Cut: After Ramona agrees to go to the first round of the battle of the bands for Scott, Scott shouts as she's leaving that the round is "tonight!

When Scott tells Ramona about his previous haircut that he got before Envy broke up with him, he tells Ramona that it was so long ago that he barely remembers it. Cut to a narrator informing us that Scott knows exactly when he got the cut in relation to the present day and when Envy broke up with him (431 days and 3 hours, respectively). These exchanges: | |

Compressed Adaptation: A more literal example than many. The movie takes place over the course of a few weeks to a month, tops, while the comic takes place over the course of about a year.

Adaptational Timespan Change: The film compresses the time-frame to somewhere around four and a half weeks (Ramona re-dyes her hair every week and a half, and goes through three dye-jobs over the course of the movie), rather than the year-ish of the comic. | |

Big Damn Movie | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_c5d36037 | comment |
Big Damn Movie: With the title, sort of. The League of Evil Exes isn't exactly "the world," but one imagines the title says that to make it seem bigger. It takes its name from the second book. The title probably deals with the fact that Scott is up against the world in a metaphorical sense. The fifth book is titled "Scott Pilgrim Vs. The Universe." by contrast. The original title of the movie took it from the first book titled Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life, but was changed later in production. | |

The Dulcinea Effect: Scott commits to this whole evil exes thing after two dates, before even reaching second first-and-a-half base. Downplayed though, since the evil exes go after Scott without provocation and without giving him a choice, and since Scott's main focus is clearly on his feelings for Ramona. | |

This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_ca9c252f | comment |
This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself: Scott vs. the Post-Final Boss, Nega-Scott. Who turns out to be a pretty cool guy, so the drama wasn't necessary. Technically, Scott had to defeat all of the exes himself. As the Exes grow more powerful, Scott needs a lot of help to deal with them- The Vegan Police strip Todd of his powers, Ramona tells him Roxy's secret weakness, and the rest of Sex Bob-Omb help him take out the Katayanagi Twins. Scott actually dies when he tries to take on Gideon himself the first time, and it's only with Knives' help he defeats Gideon the last time. It seems that Scott needs help for every fight. Wallace assists in the first two by heckling/demoralizing Patel and setting up Lee's undoing (he even hands him the fatal skateboard). | |

Word of God | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_cc4b45f6 | comment |
Considered and averted. Word of God says Roxy and Envy were combined into a single character for an early draft, until the release of Volume 4 convinced the screenwriters to split the characters again. Might explain how Roxy inherits Envy's weakness from the graphic novel — the back of her knee. The entire Ramona against Roxy fight is basically the fight with Envy, right down to the dialogue. | |

MusicalWorldHypothesis | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_ce515bc3 | comment |
Musical World Hypothesis: Deconstructs the AU hypothesis very slightly during the Patel battle. Alternatively, the whole movie could be employing a variation of the hypotheses using "video game rules" instead of "musical numbers," i.e.: There is no high-score table in real life. Dead people don't burst into coins. Power-ups don't exist. So how do you make sense of a work of fiction where they do? | |

Scott vs. the Post-Final Boss, Nega-Scott. Who turns out to be a pretty cool guy, so the drama wasn't necessary. Technically, Scott had to defeat all of the exes himself. | |

Failed Attempt at Drama | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_d9563969 | comment |
Failed Attempt at Drama: Roxy's first attempt at fighting Scott fizzles out like this. It's initially a case of an unknown assailant trying to kill him seriously. When he counterattacks, she gets after him indignantly for punching her in the boob. She puts on a Southern-ish accent for one line trying to be witty, which just confuses Scott and makes him ask if she's referencing something. When Scott turns her away, she tries to improvise a cool parting warning but doesn't think it through all the way and ends up repeating herself, then when he realizes she cries "NEVERMIND!" and leaves with a Smoke Out. | |

Musicalis Interruptus | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_d97f6f0c | comment |
Musicalis Interruptus: Used several times for comic effect. The Lucas Lee rail trick scene cuts between Lucas and his musical accompaniment gradually increasing in speed as well as Scott watching the event and casually saying "Wow". After Wallace gives Scott a quick pep talk about how he should let Ramona know he loves her, with swelling music, the music suddenly cuts out before Wallace says that Scott needs to move out. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_d99a228f | comment |
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: When Wallace successfully woos Jimmy—who was on a date with Stacey Pilgrim—and starts making out with him, all Stacey snaps is "Wallace! Again?" Apparently this is a recurring theme with Wallace and Stacey's boyfriends. The population in general seems perfectly fine with the physics-defying, reality-warping, utterly bizarre events that occur whenever an Evil Ex shows up onscreen. While they react to the collateral damage caused by the fights, the actual details don't faze them at all. | |

Pre-Asskicking One-Liner | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_db4b76d1 | comment |
Pre-Asskicking One-Liner: When Ramona and Scott walk onto the set of a Lucas Lee film, they watch Lee say one such one-liner while acting in a scene, and then use it again as himself directed at Scott while advancing towards him. "MISTER LEE!" [camera pans around] "You're needed back on set." Roxy has one prepared for her first encounter with Scott, but Scott's refusal to fight postpones the asskicking to a later date. Roxy also comes prepared for the eventual fight, interjecting after Scott discovers the connection between her and Ramona: When Ramona intercepts Roxy's subsequent kick to Scott, she comes with one of her own. At one point in the final battle, Knives makes the most of her name and tells Ramona to "get ready to chow down!" One notable instance when Kim does it for Scott as they're about to play background music for his fight in the climax: | |

Hilarious Outtakes: The film has such a high level of energy you can only imagine what filming the movie must have been like. As well, the aggressive editing and surreal nature of the film makes the outtakes seem like it belongs to a different movie altogether. As for something more traditional, Scott's "tossing the package into the garbage can behind him" took 33 tries. | |

Composite Character | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Considered and averted. Word of God says Roxy and Envy were combined into a single character for an early draft, until the release of Volume 4 convinced the screenwriters to split the characters again. Might explain how Roxy inherits Envy's weakness from the graphic novel — the back of her knee. The entire Ramona against Roxy fight is basically the fight with Envy, right down to the dialogue. Also regarding Roxy, the gag of Ramona controlling Scott's body because he won't hit a girl was originally used in the Free Comic Day comic against the character Winifred Hailey, who didn't make it into the movie. Played out similarly with Gideon, Ramona's role in the final fight is actually reduced to the point of mirroring Envy's almost completely. She pretends to hug Gideon, only to knee him and even uses Envy's "Let's both be girls" line. | |

Anti-Climax: When Scott defeats Lucas Lee's stunt team, he and Lucas start running towards each other as the music and sound effects intensify, and everything dies out as we hear only thumping heartbeats. The two jump into the air...and Lucas effortlessly gives a flying kick that sends Scott flying through the backdrop. Scott dramatically faces down Nega-Scott, telling Knives and Ramona This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself, and prepares for a fight... only for the two to walk out of the building together happily discussing their plans for brunch later that weekend, after which Scott tells the girls that Nega-Scott "is actually a really nice guy". | |

| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_effa6875 | comment |
Refrain from Assuming: In-Universe, Scott introduces the first song Sex Bob-omb plays as "Launchpad McQuack", to which Stephen Stills replies "Uh, that's not actually the name of the song..." (The song is actually called "We Are Sex Bob-omb"). (Of course, the lyrics don't contain the words "Launchpad McQuack", making one wonder where Scott got that name from). | |

Adaptational Context Change | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_f33ff01c | comment |
Adaptational Context Change: The battle against Matthew Patel gets adapted to screen retaining a punchline but with a slightly different joke: in the comic, Scott and co. end up joining in song against him, Scott leading the line with "You think you're so great, but you're missing the point / You gotta have friendship and courage and whatever!", to which Patel angrily shouts, "That doesn't even rhyme!" In the movie, it's Patel who screws it up with the lyric "Take this sucker down / Let us show him what we're all about," to which Scott — about to throw a cymbal at his face — snarks to himself, "That doesn't even rhyme." How Scott defeats Roxy — by hitting her "weak spot" in the back of her knees, something that Ramona learned about back when they were dating — is a rework of a bit from the comics where Scott defeats Envy in the same way, this weakness being something he learned when they were dating (this is a holdover from an early draft of the script where Envy and Roxy were made the same character). | |

Product Placement | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Seemingly all over the place (Coke Zero?). Every product, store, and service featured in the movie except for the Chaos Theatre are actual Canadian brands. Scott rides the TTC (they even managed to work in a joke that only works if you know that a TTC ticket costs $2.75 in 2010), goes to Pizza Pizza (Nine six seven.. eleven.. eleven!), shops at Goodwill, the former Honest Ed's, and Drug Smart, wears a CBC t-shirt, plays gigs at Lee's Palace, uses Beatrice brand half-and-half, reads the Now newspaper, and his sister works at Second Cup. Even Spike TV airs in Canada. However, according to the director/screenwriter/comic author commentary, the only company that actually paid to have its product placed in the film was Research In Motion, the Canadian company that is the maker of Blackberry smartphones. Everything else was an artistic choice on the part of the filmmakers. | |

Love Makes You Dumb / Crazy / Evil: Essentially the theme, appearing to various degrees in the Evil Exes (with, um, Evil being the most prominent there), Scott (potential future Evil Ex, Stalker with a Crush), and exemplified to their extremes in Knives - who is in denial that Scott jumped out of a window to avoid her (dumb), dyes her hair to look more like his new girlfriend (crazy), and becomes an Evil Ex, attacking Ramona to win Scott back ( . . . evil). | |

Running Gag | |

Running Gag: Exclusive to the film, we have such things as: In the movie, Scott's hat instantly appearing on his head anytime someone mentions his long hair.note To be fair, he's an Edgar Wright character. Offscreen Teleportation is to be expected in his films. Wallace's increasing number of bedmates. Wallace's frequent interjections, especially during the fight scenes. "Hey!...." Kim consistently interrupting Stephen Stills with "WE ARE SEX BOB-OMB! ONE TWO THREE FOUR!" Scott sure does pee a lot. Scott constantly assumes that Ramona is too cool to actually come to events or show up on time... only to discover that it's not so. "You know X?" "I know of it." | |

Beware the Nice Ones: Scott, as shown in his first round at the Chaos Theatre. Okay, so he isn't exactly a paragon of virtue, but if this movie teaches anything about him that the comic didn't, it's that if you cross the line twice with him, things will definitely not be pretty. He even displays hostility towards his old band. | |

Fun with Subtitles | |
| Scott Pilgrim vs. The World / int_fdb355db | comment |
Fun with Subtitles: Styled after the books: At the start of the film, most of the characters (and one location) are introduced with subtitles spelling out their name and briefly describing them. Along similar lines, a sequence after Scott first talks to Ramona has subtitles describing the scene: "AND THEN. HE STALKED HER. UNTIL SHE. LEFT. THE PARTY." The venue where Sex Bob-Omb battles Crash 'n' the Boyz is described as such: Fun Fact— This Place is a Toilet. Another sequence has an on-screen inventory of most of the items in Scott and Wallace's apartment, and who they belong to (hint: bet Wallace). Yet another transcribes word-by-word Stephen's nervous breakdown prior to playing at a Battle of the Bands, as the rival band's music drowns him out. Various scenes have words appearing on-screen as chapter names (taken from the book), or respond to a character's dialogue, for example: When Ramona first comments on Scott's shaggy hair, a series of subtitles explain that Scott's been cutting his own hair ever since Envy broke up with him, then goes on to explain the true circumstances surrounding their break up. Especially awesome because it uses the comic's art style. After Todd hits Knives so hard that her highlights come out of her hair, Envy coos to him: The part where Stephen pees his pants when Gideon shows up to promote Sex Bob-Omb, and then an arrow appears on-screen pointing to his crotch with text reading, "PEE"? | |

Pet the Dog: Lucas Lee has a lot of faith in his stunt doubles, claiming he'd be nothing without them. One in particular he seems especially fond of, Lucas stating he'll let him do the occasional wide-angle shot when Lee is...indisposed. It helps that Lucas is probably the least "evil" of all the exes and seems to be fighting Scott out of obligation more than anything else. Wallace seems genuinely fond of Knives for some reason. He's one of the few sane men and knows that Scott isn't doing right by poor Knives. | |
