Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

I'm astounded that somewhere out there is a studio executive willing to fund a movie this awesome.  Never taking itself seriously, the film dives into the quest to overcome our pasts and live for the moment by literally making it a quest, with coin and skillups and bonus lives.  I really liked this film.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
2010, 112 minutes, directed by Edgar Wright

I'd hoped to see this in the theater last year.  I even talked my wife into going with me - a rare occurrence given her dislike of cinema.  Then she came up with the great excuse of needing emergency back surgery. =P  (She's recovering fine, thanks.)  So Netflix it is.  This would have been even better in a theater full of fans laughing along.
