Opinions: I has them.

So I got spoiled for Scott Pilgrim 6 today.

Did you read it yet? Because I'd skipped this post until now and it's actually much better than the spoilers would indicate (I'm tempted to go to Wiki and see what it says now). Because there's a lot about what Ramona wanted (or didn't) in the last volume. She's still kind of a cypher, but it makes more sense. (And the thing with Stephan is hilarious.)

And Scott was always a shitty bass player, I think. It's just he was dating Kim when the both sucked and Knives Chau was, you know, seventeen years old and thought he was cool.

Not yet, although we did go see the movie. If it ends like the movie, I'd be totally satisfied with it. Well, not totally - a lot of it seems like Convenient Revelations and such, but at least it would make more sense than what I've been led to believe.

I actually *did* like the movie, though. I think the story fits better in that format because there's not as much time to go "WTF Is wrong with everyone here" and you don't really expect as much from movies, character-wise.

And Wallace Wells and Stephan Stills are still the best damn characters in the whole thing.

I still haven't seen the movie so I DUNNO. Though Wallace and Stephan continue to be the best characters. Though Knives' arc over the volumes was really, really good (at least I thought). (Did Wiki say that Stephan says he came out last volume but Scott was being too self-absorbed to notice? I feel COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED for thinking 'they're just making out' every time they were 'working on the album.)

I don't know if Wiki said it, but my boyfriend did come back and tell me that. TBH I didn't notice it either. |Da But I thought it was hilarious anyway.

That is something I definitely have to give the guy - his gay male characters are probably some of the best I've ever seen.

I don't think he does onscreen! But man, I laughed so hard.

Yeah. They're not all the same, and they're real.

You mean they're not just little Fairy Godmothers who sit around waiting on precocious little white girls to stumble into their wake so they can give them fashion advice and help them snag boys instead of snagging the boys themselves? THE DEVIL YOU SAY!
