This is very much a "Kitchen Sink" edit where everything deleted was indiscriminately re-inserted with no regards as to how it impacts the story. For example, the deleted scene which explains how Knives and Scott met, when re-inserted, kills the joke that Knives sounds like a made up person by revealing her too early. Whist there are a number of cut jokes that should have stayed in, I feel this edit doesn't know when to stop. If you wanted an uncut version, here it is, COMPLETELY UNCUT. But if you've never see the movie before, I'd recommend you just watch the original as it's much better paced and its jokes are more consistant.

Enjoyed this edit a lot. I hadn't seen this movie in a while so I don't remember everything that was cut, but I didn't feel like I was missing anything. The cartoon intro was well integrated, and the small added scenes throughout the movie were mostly perfectly added in. There were a few moments that some audio transitions seemed too quick, but these were super minor. This edit feels like it changed very little, and just added slightly more to a great movie, exactly what I would have wanted. Perfectly done!

Scott Pilgrim Vs the Editor is a wonderful edit. I hadn't seen the movie in quite a while before watching this edit, so I didn't specifically notice many of the edits, which is probably a good thing. That said, most of the deleted scenes are of noticeably lower quality than the rest of the movie, which was a bummer, but in terms of visual/audio timing they were edited in so seamlessly that it wasn't a big deal. The only added scene which I would have personally left out was the 'advanced american slut technology' line. I love the line a lot but it has far and away the roughest transition, it's clear from a mile away that it was pasted in the middle of an existing scene. None of these problems really matter though, as there is obviously limited footage to work with and there's only so much that can be done.

Going through the movie I was enjoying myself a lot, but I wasn't sure if enough was added to truly justify watching this edit as opposed to the convenience of watching it on netflix. After taking a closer look at the changelist after viewing, I was pretty surprised at how much stuff I thought was in the original, but was actually added in here. I'll have to rewatch the original soon to properly to get a fuller comparison, but for now i'll say that there's just enough here that I would choose it over the original. All the right scenes have been fleshed out to enhance the emotional core of the movie greatly.

I wasn't a fan of the animation at the start, only because it has absolutely no bearing on the plot, and it isn't really all that good on its own (wouldn't have made me think it should have played before the movie anyway). It's far from a dealbreaker though.

Overall, this is a fantastic edit. Normally I don't bother with extended edition edits, because the effort of downloading and managing a bunch of edits on my computer is a lot of work compared to just putting in a bluray, and normally it's just for a few minutes of extra (debatably beneficial) footage. But this movie is a special case where a lot of the best stuff got left on the cutting room floor, and the reintegration of them results in an edit that's surprisingly better than the sum of it's additions. Excellent job, RoccondilRinon.

Where to start? A great comic book, a great movie based on it, a fan edit that blends the two to create an ever better movie! You can tell from the quality/resolution that some scenes didn't make the original cut, but are, otherwise, seemingly edited, not to mention the small but rich details all over. I wish this one got an official release. Love it! Can't recommend enough!

I finally got around to watching this, it was pretty great. I'm a big fan of the original, and this improves upon that. I must say, some of the transitions to the deleted scenes were visible. Not that the quality was bad, the upscaled scenes looked surprisingly good, I can't place exactly what the problem was. In any case, for the most part the editing was superb. Unlike some others, I don't mind certain language being removed, it's not like I want to hear it, and you're still free to watch the theatrical version whenever you want. The new ending was very well put together. I don't think I have anything else to note, this was just nice.

Also thanks for including my name in the credits.
