New SCOTT PILGRIM Teaser Poster Strikes a Chord

Boom! The first poster for Edgar Wright's upcoming Scott Pilgrim adaptation has been spotted in the wild by comingsoon.net at ShoWest 2010. Michael Cera woos his bass and spawns some cockeyed stars and a wicked white logo. Not sure if this is the official logo or just one of many, but it certainly fits the tone of the series. If it's not an original Bryan Lee O'Malley design, it's damn near close. It'd be neat to see a full range of these things showcasing the whole band, including some 8-bit typography, maybe even some game sprites or, hell, some O'Malley character art. Maybe we'll see Mary Elizabeth Winstead rollerblading into her own flowery teaser poster as Ramona.

Either way, can't go wrong with a tagline like:

"An epic of epic epicness." 



 

Is it August 13th yet?

    The release of this movie is one of those things that you hear about for so long, you start to think on some level that it isn’t ever actually going to happen.

    I Approve.

  5. gilltron5 gilltron5 says:

    It’s based off the first books title page

    beyond stoked for this

  6. I still have no idea what Scott Pilgrim actually is, not do i have any real desire to find out. Athough that is a pretty great poster, i must admit.

    I still cannot understand why is don’t like Scott Pilgrim.  I like most of the elements of the story, but the first two volumes bored me to tears.  I still haven’t decided if I’m going to see the movie.

  8. stuclach stuclach says:

    Sorry, that should be "I still cannot understand why I don’t like Scott Pilgrim."

  9. mikegraham6 mikegraham6 says:

    i have VERY high hopes for this flick!

  10. SteenAR SteenAR says:

    so pumped. 

  11. JesTr JesTr says:

    Maybe I should start reading Scott Pilgrim.  I love manga but still haven’t read it yet. Perhaps I should just add it to my stack.

  12. Petro09 Petro09 says:

    so epic

  13. dannydanger dannydanger says:

    PURE AWESOME. Can’t wait to read it.

  14. jmstump jmstump says:

    Such a great poster.

  15. CAM CAM says:

    Now I’m no Audiofile…but that looks like a Bass to me.  Only Lemmy (of Motorhead) should play bass with a pick.

  16. HeX HeX says:

    now i want the trailer!

     

  17. I can’t wait for this. Edgar Wright is nothing less than a genius, and the only one im my eyes who could do justice to the amazing source material. 

  18. A Rickenbacher bass. Nice. Is that what he plays in the book?

  19. RahUniQue RahUniQue says:

    this is the bomb-omb!!!!

  20. Mangaman Mangaman says:

    This is more awkward than I had imagined. Interesting…

  21. Anson17 says:

    @ CAM – Are you sure he’s using a pick? I’m not sure if he is…

     

    @JJ – I’m pretty sure he uses a Rickenbacher at least once in the books.

    Crash and the boys…I mean the Boys and Crash are better. There was a hostile takeover.

  23. Neb Neb says:

    Epically awesome!

  24. Matrix Matrix says:

    I want a trailer!

    I think the reason I like SP so much is that it’s dramedy mixed with those over the top qualities that make no logical sense but once you accept that it’s a lot of fun. I think the thing I’m most excited about is seeing kieran culkin, brandon routh and chris evans in the same movie!

    That said I’m still flying to the Cera’s house and kicking him in the balls if he @#%s this up.

  25. KickAss KickAss says:

    That’s cool but it always seems like there’s not enough music in the books.  I hope there will be more in the movies.

  26. Bedhead Bedhead says:

    Awesomely awesome.

  27. Brian Brian says:

    A-Mazing.

  28. 1SinMuse 1SinMuse says:

    That is badass.

  29. kmob181 kmob181 says:

    Uh…is the last issue going to make it out before the movie does?

  30. Conor Kilpatrick conor (@cskilpatrick) says:

    @kmob181: That’s the plan.
