#30 30 Day Movie Challenge

#30 A movie in the theater at this time last year

We went to the movie theater a few times last August.  I remember this because I had to look up which movies were in the theater.  But I really didn't care for any of them.

But a few months ago Josh and I got a movie from Netflix that came out last August.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World



This is kind of a weird movie to end this challenge with.  It's a much different movie than any of the others I've listed.  And it's a bit of a weird movie anyway.  I wouldn't just go ahead and recommend this movie, but I did like it. 

Scott Pilgrim must fight off the evil exes of the girl he likes in order to be with her.  And because it's based on a graphic novel (meaning a comic book type novel and not porn, which is what I originally thought that term meant) there's lots of psychedelic oddness to the movie. 

It's just very different, quite weird, and somehow enjoyable.  But I don't know that it's one that everyone will like.

I had to laugh out loud on your definition of graphic novel. :)

I've never even heard of this movie, but I bet James would like it. He thinks this guy is funny.
