Scott Pilgrim Boxset

It was last January (2022) was planning to re-read the Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Boxset.   Never got around to until now.  Started reading book one of six a few nights ago.  The first time I read  these was back in 2011.  Very much forget much of the story so I will be nice to re-visit.  After that might watch the movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, which is based off these books.

Scott Pilgrim Boxset

It was back in January (2011) that I got my hands on the Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Boxset.  Had pre-ordered that past November.  The reason was I enjoyed the movie , Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, a lot.  So, it has been ten years since I have read the six books in this boxset.  Thinking it is time to re-read them and then watch the movie.  From what I can remember the movie fallows the books closely.  All so thinking it would make for a good video for I’d Rather Watch Paint Dry channel.

Seconds by Bryan Lee O’Malley

A little over a week or so made a post talking about Bryan Lee O’Malley newest book Seconds.  Well a few days back was out at the mall and landed in the book store.  Seen that they had some copies so bought one.  I know it would have been cheaper to buy it off of Amazon.  But found that I still had a gift card with a little bit of money on it.  The book a very nice hardcover. It is in his Scott Pilgrim art style.  Haven’t started to read it yet.  But looking forward to reading this very interesting story.

Seconds by Bryan Lee O’Malley

Thinking about getting a copy of Bryan Lee O’Malley newest book Seconds.  He is most famous for the Scott Pilgrim books.  Which was turned into the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. The World in 2010.  Have all those books and the movie which are awesome.  His new one as a similar art style which came out this past summer.  Was going to buy it back then but it was sold out on Amazon.ca.  Think the next time I am placing a new order with Amazon will add this one to my list.  As I am typing this (October  19, 2014) they are $15.68.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game

There is a summer sale going on now on the PSN.  One of the games on sale is Scott Pilgrim vs The World.  Am a big fan of the books and movie so decide I should think about buying it.  Since my free month of PSN+ has not run out yet it was only going to cost me $4.89.  Took a look in my PSN wallet and enough so I bought it.  The game is a side scrolling beat ‘em, like the old games from the Sega and NES days.  Well it is more detailed and up to date game play.  All so has RPG elements to it as well.  The look is based of the books.  Gave the first level a try.  Not sure if I like the game or not yet. It looks cool but it might be repetitive.  Will fine out.

Scott Pilgrim Boxset Review

Back in January I got my copy of the Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Boxset.  Well I finished reading book six last night.  Really like the books.  All so loved the movie.  They may share the same name but the movie pulls different parts from each book and may not be in the same order or way it was done in the books.  What I like about them the best is each one was different the last.  They were put out over six years the seemed to change in year.  Which is good because time pass in the books as well.

Really like these.  If you seen the movie you should check out the books and vice versa.  The boxset is the best choice since it is cheaper that way.  But I must confess that I liked the movie better.  Will have to watch it again.

Scott Pilgrim Boxset

Finely got Scott Pilgrim’s Precious Little Boxset yesterday.  Which I pre-ordered back in November.   Loved the movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World so much I had to check out the graphic novels which it is based on.  It was a very good deal.  Got free shipping and with tax it came to $49.99.  At the local bookstore they wanted $90.00 plus tax.  So it was well worth the wait.  If you are interested you can visit the Scott Pilgrim website to see what the the books look like.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: Black Sheep

I have had the song Black Sheep form the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World sound track stuck in my head.  The song is from the band Metric.  The video below is from the movie.  If you want to see Metric play their song click > here.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Scott Pilgrim VS. The World Blu-Ray

Picked up the collector’s edition of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.  It is the Blu-ray/DVD combo pack.  Love this movie that is why I bought the Blu-ray it was a nice bonus that it comes with a DVD copy as well.  The disc at all kinds of extras.  That is awesome as to see.   Didn’t watch all of  them yet.  Not going to review this movie since I did that back in August.  Gave it a 5 out of 5 if you want to know.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Review

I loved every part of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.  The whole movie is just plan fun and cool. They way they use the visual effects, I have never seen a movie like that before.  It is full of great comedy.  The dialog and banter between the characters will make you laugh.  The fight scenes are top notch as well.  They are hard hitting and fun at the same time.  Have to talk about the music.  This movie use music like no other movie.  I like just about every song they played/used.  Just might pick of the soundtrack that is how much I liked it.

This movie is a pure old good time.  If you can’t find any one thing to like about this movie you shouldn’t being watching movies.  I plan to buy this when it comes out on DVD.   I am all so thinking about picking up the graphic novels the movie is based on.  Amazon.ca has a good deal on the box set of volume 1-6 > here.
