so it looks mr. wright let mr. jason reitman see 30 minutes of "Scott Pilgrim." reitman was in london to premiere "Up in the Air."
this is the excerpt from reitman's twitter page:
"In London, @edgarwright showed me 30min of Scott Pilgrim. While sworn to secrecy (so much, surprised blood wasn’t demanded) I will say this: It is a game changer for Edgar and the genre. It moves the speed of light and carries more unadulterated joy than I've seen in recent cinema. SP does what everyone our age has been dreaming about: achieves the first all encompassing film of the joystick generation. I’m in awe of the sheer control in the filmmaking. It feels like a “Matrix” for love and how willing we are to fight for it. If I had a movie coming out next year, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near it. Hats off my friend. Can’t get it out of my head."
mr. wright responded to the overwhelming praise on HIS respective twitter page:
"I am very touched by @jasonreitman's lovely comments about Scott Pilgrim thus far. In unrelated news, Up in the Air ain't too shabby."
well, i'm getting more excited.
