Okay, I think an info post is in order here, even though there's not much to say. Wallace Wells is a minor character in the Scott Pilgrim comic series (and, yes, he'll be in that movie coming out in a few weeks, just played by a different actor than my PB). He's Scott's ex-roommate and mentor throughout the series. He's just a...tough love kind of mentor.
Anyway, more under here!
Wallace Wells:
- Is post-series in Scott Pilgrim canon, meaning he has left Scott to be happy with Ramona and no longer feels the need to call Mrs. Pilgrim all the time and gossip about Scott's well being.
- Is pretty darn gay.
- Thinks alllllll the boys want him.
- Has a kink for guys who wear glasses.
- Drinks far too much and drunk dials like nobody's business.
- Is actually bit of an asshole and, no, he doesn't much care.
- Doesn't know the cheat codes to Sonic 3, Scott, so stop asking.
- Will make friends with you based on a mutual hatred of someone else.
- Especially if someone else is that horse-faced bitch Envy Adams (SORRY, KATE).
- Might introduce himself under some variation of "Wallace Wells: Drunk Homosexual", "Wallace Wells: Gay Bacon Enthusiast", simply because that's how he's always introduced in the comics.
- Hates wearing pants.
- Favorite restaurant is Hooters.
- Can break the fourth wall, meaning he can read your narrative, knows he's from a comic book, and might know who some of you are too, since he's pretty up to date on pop culture and his ex-roomie was a huge X-Men fan. Don't worry, he won't give anything away.
- Looks exactly like Chuck Bass.
Say what now?
Okay, I love Kieran Culkin, I really do, but he is not my Wallace Wells. So in a selfish attempt to keep playing hot guys, and because it's who I legit saw when reading the comics, Ed Westwick will be PB'ing dear Wallace. I have made you a list to help you tell the difference between the two:
1. Wallace smiles a lot more.
2. He's 26, so he'll look a few years older.
3. Wallace is also a bit taller, around 6' compared to Chuck's 5'9".
4. He is a lot more caring about your well-being, and will mother-hen you if he likes you. It's just in a tough love sort of way.
5. Wallace will not be hitting on women. Ever.
6. But he will steal your boyfriends...which isn't different from Chuck at all.
7. Wallace dresses nice, but in an affordable sort of way. Think jeans and a button-down with a sweater over it. That kind of preppy.
8. He'll use terms like "dude" and "sweet" and sometimes finishes his sentences with "eh" because he's Canadian. And don't you get huffy with me, Canadians, that's just how the comics are.
9. And perhaps most importantly, Wallace isn't the type to be emo and broody. At all. He's simply too awesome for it.
Eh...other than that, they're kinda alike.
So any questions and/or comments?
