Scott Pilgrim vs The World theatrical re-release extended to 5/12. More theaters (not just Dolby). 4k UHD on 7/6
- Thread starter chairhome
- Start date
Ugh, can I convince my wife to go with me since we will have gotten our second shot before this?!?
It's interesting that they stuck with the April 30 date for this. You have to imagine that was chosen to take advantage of the gap between Mortal Kombat (Apri 16) and Black Widow's original May 7 release date. With Widow now delayed until July, it suddenly makes the start of May way more open - and yet this is still a one week event release.
Same. Feels bad.
Then again the Dolby Cinema near me is in a state of disrepair every time I go, so maybe it isn't so bad
I remember seeing an advanced screening, expecting nothing and walking out completely in love. I've watched it 20+ times since then.
One thing I'll never forget was in the advanced screening, they actually had an awkward family dinner scene with Knives' family. That scene never made it to the Blu-ray or anywhere since then that I've seen or heard of.
I wonder if it will ever surface again?

Yeah, nothing about it having dolby vision though. And with the pandemic, I am not counting my chickens before they hatch.
Sold my cast and crew-signed blu of this about a year back.
Also, the film is 11 years old now. So a 10 year anniversary release is weird!

Is it wrong my wish for SP is that it gets the Army of Darkness treatment, where we get a version with all the deleted scenes woven in.
I remember watching them, asking why the fuck they'd take them out in the first place?

They wanted to do it last year during the actual 10 yr anniversary but... You know. Pandemic.
Going tonight, will be the first time my wife and I have been in a movie theater since the start of the pandemic (last movie we saw was Sonic, lol). We're partially vaccinated, but couldn't miss this.
Of course this release happens while the pandemic's still ongoing though. With it's initial box office run and now this, this poor film can't catch a break. I hope Universal has reasonable expectations here.

I sadly can't go watch this in theaters... but tonight I watched my old blu-ray copy to compensate (UHD when???)
I think watching Young Neil in the background of so many scenes is funnier than a lot of the movies that came out in the last few years.

4k blu ray is coming out in June or July I think. This summer for sure. None of the theaters around me have it, but I'm excited to get the 4k disc soon. HDR is gonna make this movie pop.
Looks like July 6.

Expanded release
Great news from Edgar Wright on a recent IG live call:
- Universal was pleased with the turnout for the Dolby Cinema rerelease, they're expanding it to 500 theaters (from 150 AMC only), including non Dolby Cinema ones. Should be out for one more week.
- he teased an animated Scott Pilgrim something in the works previously, but on today's stream he said "Universal is always asking what we can do with Scott Pilgrim that is not an expensive sequel. We are looking into something that can expand on the story, but I don't want to say anything cause it might not happen."

Awful timing for me. If it could go one more week I'd be totally in but not sure if I can make it next week :(
Fantastic news! It was amazing in Dolby, first time in a Dolby Cinema actually. My favorite scene, the Katayanagi twins battle, was outstanding. Shook the theater.
Our theater was pretty empty tbh, I'd say probably around 15 people tops. But it seems as though Universal had reasonable expectations all things considered. It was also a Sunday night so that could have lessened the crowd a bit.

^This. The disc version is going to have dolby vision too right?
I may go and see it in Dolby this weekend as I'll be fully vaxed by this Sunday... I saw the original opening night so this would make a great return to theaters movie for me.
Despite the ending stuff that they obviously attempted to fix with reshoots, it's still a fantastic movie for 99% of it.

Oh nice! Sounds like I've got a date night in my future with the old ball and chain. The last thing I saw in theaters was The Invisible Man last year at The Village.
Michael Cera is generally just not that charismatic or relatable. Not a villain, but not really the sort of person audiences want to root for. Making someone with the "awkward ill-spoken nerd" persona the lynchpin of the production was probably not a great idea.

Scott and Ramona were both miscast and have no chemistry. Everything surrounding them is amazing though.
I think the second half also struggles to condense too many books.
Yea the problem is Cera as he's the lynchpin of the movie and just doesn't work.
I caught the final showing in Dolby today -- this movie is way better than I remember it, probably because I only ever saw it on home video. In a theater with a 30' screen and a blaring soundsystem, it's much easier to appreciate the audio and the visuals. Cera still kinda sucks as a leading man, but all the supporting characters are really charming and fun.
I think it kinda drags towards the end -- they probably could have skipped a couple of the boyfriends, or at least combined some of them into a single character or single fight. The last battle against Gideon is probably really fun and thrilling on its own, but by that point I was so ready for the movie to end that it's hard to give it its due. Especially when the sequence plays out twice due to Scott's 1-UP.

Was the cast this obviously amazing when the movie came out or is this just in hindsight that it looks this ...AWESOME!
Saw it on a Dolby screen, looked great. I hope the talk about an animated follow up leads to something eventually.
As I watch watching it today it dawned on me that Scott Pilgrim is like the Dazed & Confused of its generation, in that it managed to feature or showcase a bunch of talented young actors who would become really huge later on down the line. And also like Dazed & Confused, the ostensible "leading man" has kinda slipped into obscurity.
