    Great blog man. The beard never worked anyway. You just looked like a hairy child.x
  • Meib
    Awesome blog...looking forward for the rest of these!
  • SWEEEEEEEET
  • John Pilgrim
    Edgar rules!
  • At last! The video blogging begins.

    I, for one, miss the beard. Made me feel better about my stupid facial hair.
  • Mike S
    The video is not embeddable? But Edgar, I wanted to post this on my blog
  • THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY.
    AH!
  • Mike
    Ok, I'm going to try not to gush like a geek, but this is fucking A.

    Watching the cast training is fantastic. Thank you Edgar.
  • Soup
    Ahhhh.... all's "wright" with the world. Sorry, I had to say it. With this and Daily photo, you're just gonna make the wait for this movie even harder... DAMN YOU! But still, it looks like ya'll are havin a lot of fun. Can't wait to see more!
  • Shana
    It has been a really, really, really long time since I have looked forward to the release of a film. I can't wait to see "Scott" live and in action!
  • It's finally all coming together! I can't wait!
  • Scott
    This is just too much. Like, total overload. I'm gonna go take a nap.
  • Christian Otholm
    So excited.
  • holy christ. i can not tell you how excited i am for this. everything they've announced or shown us about this movie has been perfect so far, and this video is just further proof. i'm loving it!

    hey edgar, if you want another band for the movie, just shoot me an email! ;)

    brilliant video! have missed your video blogs - what a great insight.
    yeah lose the set beard grandad! (though i like the 'filming' beards).
    can't wait for next weeks....
  • NOOOOOOOO we want the beard come on Edgar
  • Cordelia
    The "hairy authority" was good but I prefer the "youthful" look

    This video was such a feast for the eyes that I had to watch it twice to take it all in!

    And that sword-fighting looks way too fun to be allowed...

    Looking very much forward to Video Blog Number Two! :)
  • Jer
    This is truly the best thing on the internet. Between this and the daily photos on Edgar's site I think I can hold out until the movie comes out (and the 6th book).

    Edgar, thanks for all the work you are putting into Scott Pilgrim.
  • Kev
    That's quite a move from Cera, straight out of Crouching Tiger!

    and Ms Wong seems to be a dab hand swordswoman!

    I can't wait a year for this film!!
  • I'm looking forward to watching this film. And to think Scott Pilgrim's comics haven't reached the Brazilian audience yet! It's such a SHAME! X)
  • SarahAC
    Love. Love. Love this.
  • Joel Vallie
    My mind is having a blog over load.Edgar Wright is getting into shape. Keep it up man you inspire us all.
  • Jessica
    You are the man!

    Loooving everything I see from this movie everyday.

    Can't wait to see this film.
  • Amber BG
    Thank you Thank you Edgar!!!
  • Freddy Loayza
    I love it! I hope to see more of these soon. I say you attempt a Grizzly Adams look! Ha ha ha! Just kidding. XD
  • Colin
    Awesomeness is most assuredly guaranteed.
  • Jon
    This is great...i remember watching all the ones leading up to Hot Fuzz!
    That was a mighty leap backwards from Michael Cera haha...can't wait for the film, might be a bit odd seeing and Edgar film without Simon and Nick
  • Thanks for posting these! Looking forward to seeing how the film develops. Go, Knives!
  • looks like it's gonna be good =]

    your directing style is sooo.... old skool yet skittish and weirdly 'indie chld' so i rekon you'll do a bloody good job on scott pilgrim since it's just that as a comic yeah!! =D what a great choice of a comic adaption too =)bbbb

    also i can't wait to hear the moosic that will come of this~ <D
  • Lucas
    Edgar, you are a hero and a fantastic director, i cannot wait for this film!
  • Ed S.
    Edgar, where did you get that "El Santo" shirt? I desperately need one!
  • I have to say, when I first heard about this film getting made I was kind of horrified, I was worried the comic would be butchered, but everything I've seen about the production makes me happier and happier :D In fact I did a girly squee noise when I saw that photo with the SEX BOB-OMB drum
  • Alright!!!!!! The video blogs have begun :D!!!!!
  • YEAH!
    P.S.: Go to my blog(Fan-SP-Site)
    P.S.2:UHULLLLL!!!!
  • Love this! Can't wait for more!
  • Ánimo Edgar con esta tu primera incursión en el cine comiquero! La obra de Bryan Lee O'Malley no puede haber contado con un mejor paladín. Suerte y estaremos atentos a tus evoluciones. // Go on Edgar with this first incursion in comic to film adventure! Bryan Lee O'Malley's work couldn't have a better choice as director. Good luck and we keep an eye on your work.
  • 35mm film? Why aren't there more filmmakers not turning to digital technology like Red, Phantom, etc. these days?
  • I was already excited, this video blog has now made me even more excited!
  • go on edgar!!!!
    I know you can do a perfect movie about this comics
    we´ll keep an eye on you´re work

    see ya
  • Simone
    Now there's one thing you will no longer have...

    A GREAT BIG BUSHY BEARD!

    Ah you are so charming Edgar.
  • A.T
    Is it okay just to say yes to this?

    Yes
  • - Greetings from Mexico!

    Hey man!, What a cool "Mexican Lucha" t-shirt you have (with the classical "Santo, the silver masked man" design)!
    I 'll be waiting to see your movie, it looks terrific!

    Saludos y mucha suerte!
  • pieface
    ^^ is that the mexican wrestling? i'm mildly obsessed with mexico at the moment, so anything mexican catches my eye.

    (if you reply, as a mexican - can you tell me if 'pulqeros' is the proper name for the fermented cactus drink? or have i got that completely wrong? ta!
  • Watching the actors training kind of reminded me of the line from Wayne's World:

    Garth: "What are you gonna do with these guys?"

    Wayne: "Oh, nothing really. I just always wanted to open a door to a room where people were being trained like in James Bond movies."

    (Only without the flamethrower guy.)


    It'll be fantastic to see Toronto playing itself in a non-Canadian movie, for once. (Okay, I understand that Toronto was also featured in THE LOVE GURU, but I didn't see that movie as it was supposed to be total tosh.)
  • pieface,

    'PULQUE' is the correct word for that delicious beverage made from the fermented juice of the 'MAGUEY' (the same plant whrere the TEQUILA is produced). 'PULQUEROS' is the name of the people who makes 'PULQUE'. Here in Mexico PULQUE is very cheap & easy to find (in any city or town you can find a 'Pulque store' called 'PULQUERIA' and you can get it in natural or in a diversity of 'fruit-flavored mixes' lique Strawberry, Guayaba (Guava), Oats, Peanuts, Almonds, etc.

    Soon I'll make a ''Mexican POP-CULTURE blog'' in English & Spanish to share cool stuff from my country with all you people! Check it soon here - www.lysandermix.blogspot.com

    i cannot believe this film is actually happening! i'm so excited to see how everything is going to relate, and fit together. i'm also totally stoked that i finally get to hear SEX BOB-OMB - oh the joy of terrible rock music!
  • Tim Nicley
    LOL@Simon's comment! xD Hairy Child... I didn't think so, I thought you looked older. hehe...Anyways, looking forward to the other blogs and the movie!
  • Mishka
    This makes me very happy - it should serve as good evidence to the fanboy prats who all proclaimed to me that your directing SP was the biggest mistake of all time. Clearly, you have been working on this for longer than they had been reading it. In your face, fanboy twats!

    (Master Wright, are you making up for the lack of beard with the abundance of hair? I'm more jealous of your hair now than every before.)
  • pieface
    buenos dias lisandro. thanks so much - wow great information.
    i had a feeling it was a cheapish drink, but had no idea about the flavours. i'm trying to write something so that info is a great help (tho one day i will have to go to mexico - but in the meantime thanks!).
    gracias.
  • Brett
    Hey edgar, can I be in the film?
  • Lloyd
    Watched Hot Fuzz the other day and was thinking "Edgar really looks awful without a beard", but you know what, it looks okay now, it was probably that you were trying to look like a vaccuous petrol attendant.
  • pieface
    dyou mean the guy in the sunglasses/epiphany moment in the garage near the end, who says 'can i help you sir?'
    thats not edgar!
    i really thought it was as well - but he's one of the 118 guys (soz don't know his actual name..!)
  • Can we expect another bit of vloggy goodness today? Oh please say so...
  • Love that filmmakers make videoblogs like these;) I'm looking forward to this film, keep up the good work Ed;)
  • STRUETYIUJRTUJ^UY$%^YTGRTY*IJU%UHTYH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I CANNOT WAAAAAIIITTTTTT!!! Scott Pilgrim is why my heart beeeeeeattttsssss. Lookin great so far, guys. <333
  • Federico
