Random Video: Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

So, I'm really looking forward to the arrival of this movie next year, but it wasn't anything about the movie that caught my attention when I watched this video diary. I was shocked to see how young Edgar Wright looks. I was expecting this grizzled filmmaker. Maybe balding, maybe a little bit of a paunch on him. Turns out the guy, who according to IMDB is older than me, looks like he's still sixteen or seventeen. Weird.

500 Days of Summer

I happened across this trailer for "(500) Days of Summer". I love that it's made up of still images spliced together to show movement (Okay, I suppose that's what all movies ultimately are, but you know what I mean). I also love the song in the trailer. Apparently it's titled "Sweet Disposition" and it's by a band named Temper Tramp. Hadn't heard of them before I saw the movie, but I'll be keeping an ear out for them now.

I did get a chance to see this movie last month at the Atlanta Film Festival and I loved it. It is easily my favorite movie of the year so far (sorry Star Trek, it was very close, though). I'll drop in the regular trailer, too, just in case you want to get more of an idea of what the film is about.
