I recently read the nominees for the
Best Visual Effects category in the upcoming
83rd Academy Awards which had fairly good movies vying for that particular title (image courtesy of

... wait. Something's missing here.
No Scott Pilgrim vs The World? As in nothing? How could that be? This is an effin' travesty!
In case you don't know yet, SPvTW is one of the best comic book movies of 2010 according to the survey conducted by our guys at
ComicbookMovie and a lot of comic book fans agree on that as well. And in my opinion, it certainly had the sickest visual effects that you could ever find in a movie. Seriously. Its like a comic book brought to life, its packed with a lot of badassery, and would certainly give you a dose of that 1UP generated nostalgia since your childhood Nintendo days (for those of you ignorant species out there, 1UP is the best thing ever invented in video game history. Google it). Its just so damn good! Describing it to you right now through words and pictures will never ever do it justice. You gotta get your damn home theater set, sit your ass on a chair and watch it.
