It's a perfect movie for what it is....which is pure late millennial angst.

I don't fit that bucket, so it isn't for me.

I think the 83-93 net is a bit early. Probably more like a 86/87 to 95ish.

It is an incredibly quotable movie.

"Chicken isn't vegan?" Gets thrown around regularly at my house.

Scott: ...That doesn't sound so good either.
Might be my favorite line in the movie.

Given with the exception of Knives and Wallace that everyone in the movie are pretty awful people, I don't see why people emulated Scott Pilgrim. All the cultural stuff in Scott Pilgrim was around long before the movie came out. Plus it was a box office bomb.

I only made it about 15 minutes into it. It seemed like a really stupid film.

I feel awful forgetting Young Neil. He should from this point forward be referred to as Neil.

If you consider Wallace to be good, then so is Stacey. Wallace fricking stole Stacey's date.

And Kim is only "bad" in the sense that she calls out Scott on his shite.
