No. It looks stupid as shit.

The movie that is. I haven't even bothered to watch a game trailer because the movie trailer was so dumb.

It was a huge hit at the test screenings. I'm not a fan of Cera (talk like a man in at least one role please), but I've heard nothing but good things about Pilgrim.

whenever Michael Cera stars in a movie it should just be "Michael Cera as....Michael Cera" He plays the same damn character in every movie. Super Bad is still great imo though....The movie doesn't look great at all, but who knows. I had no clue there was a game as well, I might check it out after it's released to see what kind of reviews it gets.

Just the fact that Micheal Cera is the lead role cancels out how awesome it is that Edgar Wright is the director.

Not looking forward to the movie.

Agreed. The fact that he's the lead just completely ruins the entire film for me. He was good in Superbad, but then watching subsequent films with him in, and it's the same character. No wait, it's not even a character. It's just Michael Cera. He is the American Hugh Grant.

Game looks pretty good however. Which is quite odd.
