8-Bit Pimping: Scott Pilgrim Vs. Video Game Nostalgia

Sunday, August 22, 2010

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World was unleashed last weekend. The $60 million, Edgar Wright directed video game romp is a strange foray into nostalgia, contemporary manga style fiction and stylistic filmmaking, so, when I went to see Pilgrim at the Arclight opening night, I had only an expectation: the film would be fun.

Featured Alumni: The Sheffield Institute for the Recording Arts

Saturday, December 26, 2009
