Each month, Panels in Motion talks about a non-superhero comic book that was adapted into a movie. Whether it's old or new, American or international, the hosts seek to answer the questions: What makes a good adaptation? What's the difference between comics and film? And who in their right mind approved some of these decisions??
The hosts wax nostalgic about their beloved Scott Pilgrim series as they reevaluate how well it holds up a decade later. Will Scotty retain the title of Nick's favorite movie? Will Andre relate a little too much to Scott's bread dilemma? Will Luke bring up punk shows again? It's all here in our final book club episode!
Material discussed:
- "Scott Pilgrim" volumes 1-6 by Bryan Lee O'Malley
- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010) movie, dir. Edgar Wright
NEXT MONTH: The grand finale, and a reflection on what we've learned.
