VS. The World

Today a bunch of the guys and I watched Scott Pilgrim VS The World. I already knew that it was going to be full of video game awesomeness from the previews and people telling me about how cool it was and stuff-that wasn't a complete sentence-BUT it was better than I expected. Theeeere we go.

The movie was amazing from the very beginning... and I mean the VERY VERY beginning as in when they show the UNIVERSAL sign and earth logo. The movie opens with the Legend of Zelda 8 bit opening song(to which I geeked out to) and the entire movie is filled with video game references. The whole feel of it just mimics one fun RPG. There is one neat scene where Scott is day dreaming about Ramona and the fairy fountain song from Zelda plays in the background with a girl actually singing the tune. It was SO AMAZING. THEN there's this other scene where Scott plays the battle music from FFII on the bass. Yeah. That's when I peed my pants.

There were moments during the movie when I felt that it would have been way cooler to have seen it with a full audience. Although the movie is pretty funny, it felt like there were a lot of things you couldn't geek out to alone. I really wanna watch the movie with my siblings cuz I KNOW they would geek out with me. And we will laugh and laugh until forever. Im not good with movie reviews but if you're into video games, if you are a nerd/geek at heart, if you like Michael Cera then you will definitely appreciate this movie. Also, what's up with that chick playing Ramona?? Her eye balls are soo... big. I want to watch it again! Who wants to go with me?

I really wish I had read the comics before watching the movie so I could compare the two. There is a scene in the movie towards the end where a guy in the background is talking to someone about how "the comic was better than this movie" but you really had to be paying attention to hear it, I thought it was clever. I might have to borrow the comics from someone one of these days.

In ooother news, I have a new car. It's white and its lovely. Its a lot better than my blue one thats for sure. Im always afraid that it's going to break down cuz I dunno, I guess im used to bad things happening to me all the time I just freak out when things are going right... because Im just waiting. Its the wait that makes me crazy. Hopefully all will be good for a while. A long long while.

Sometimes it feels like it's me against the world.
