Watch 'Scott Pilgrim vs. The World' With MoPOP + Special Guest Glenn Case!
For our "Grow Up!" film series, we're exploring adolescence in all its lusty, zitty, complicated glory. Through December 2020, we'll be celebrating movies from all over the genre map that show just how joyful and confounding being a teenager can be.
You're invited to join us at 6 p.m. PT this Thursday, December 17, as MoPOP Production Associate Kasi Gaarenstroom and special guest Glenn Case lead an online watchalong and virtual discussion of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
- Register Now: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
Special guest Glenn Case, a self-proclaimed "internet geek musician" who has written and recorded hundreds of songs, says, "I have seen Scott Pilgrim vs. the World in theaters more times than any other film. My friend Baer asked if I was going to have 'Seven evil viewings' and I told him, 'Well, I am now!' I was obsessed with all things Scott Pilgrim for a while, which led to Scott Pilgrim theme parties (complete with Vegan Shepard’s Pie), creating custom Sex Bob-Omb karaoke files, and being able to conduct a really cool radio interview with Carla and Lynette [Gillis] from Plumtree. Additionally, I have been a fan of the webcomic Diesel Sweeties for years before seeing the film, so buying the Pixel Skull t-shirt was a given. Beck wrote the songs for Sex Bob-Omb in the film, which helps to explain why the compositions are so damn catchy."
Here are a handful of program elements you can expect to see this Thursday, December 17 during our Scott Pilgrim vs. The World watchalong:
- Pre-film introduction with MoPOP’s Kasi Gaarenstroom, who will share some of her favorite letterboxd reviews of the film
- Cocktail and mocktail pairings
- Chat with Kasi, Glenn, and other fans during the film
- Post-film discussion on how Scott Pilgrim vs. The World exemplifies the complexities of growing up!
As with all of our virtual watchalongs, to participate you'll need to register in advance, and then on event day make sure you have a copy of the film queued up and ready to watch on your end while keeping an eye on your e-mail inbox for a link to join our online discussion.
