Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)

Edgar Wright co-wrote, produced, and directed Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, a 2010 romantic action comedy film based on Bryan Lee O'Malley's Scott Pilgrim comic novel series. It stars Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim, a slacker musician who is battling the seven nasty exes of his current love Ramona Flowers, played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, while simultaneously trying to win a competition to acquire a record deal.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010) incorporates well-known elements of its Toronto location, as well as images from video games and comic books. It based each fictitious band in the battle of the band's narrative on genuine musical musicians, such as Beck and Metric, with some of the actors also performing. The complex visual effects were created using a combination of digital and traditional processes.
