Got to see a premiere of\u00a0Scott Pilgrim vs. The World<\/i><\/span>\u00a0last night.\u00a0 It’s like a smorgasbord of nerdy references, meant to be for nerds, and socially awkward geek outcasts, and I question how it will fare with those who are too busy to be reading blogs and the corners of the internet that do not involve fantasy football, celebrity gossip, and stock tips.\u00a0 But regardless, since I fall into the category of geeky-internet-blogger-nerd, I enjoyed the movie pretty well.\u00a0 It followed the comic pretty okay, but I thought there wasn’t enough of\u00a0Scott Pilgrim\u00a0<\/i><\/span>getting his ass kicked.<\/span><\/p>\n

Or maybe it’s the fact that I’m just a little burnt out on\u00a0Michael Cera<\/b><\/span>, and the fact that he seems to play the same guy in every single movie he’s in, and now I just want to see him get his ass kicked on screen now, or something like that. But\u00a0Mary Elizabeth Winstead<\/b><\/span>, who plays the role of\u00a0Ramona Flowers<\/i><\/span>, I totally dig.\u00a0 I thought she was hot in\u00a0Sky High<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/a>, but she’s totally back on my radar of actress crushes after watching this flick.<\/span><\/p>\n

But even with the Cera-handicap, as I said, I enjoyed the flick, and I would’ve paid to have seen it in the theaters after August 13th, but am fortunate and glad to have not had to pay last night.\u00a0 However, it was a little melancholy and ronery in an ironically humorous way, being\u00a0the one\u00a0<\/i><\/span>single guy in a group of like five other couples, watching a flick about guy-fighting for-girl in a nerd-gallant way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Someone get me my cranberry juice, god damn it.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
