Sunday March 28th, 2010 - Empire Awards

Here for old times sake is my very first collaboration with Mr. Michael Cera from way back in 2007 A.D.

Okay. Here the sonic caffeine that call themselves Anamanaguchi premiere the theme from the Scott Pilgrim video game at Pax East. With some of the visuals direct from the upcoming Ubisoft game from pixel art extraordinaire Paul Robertson.

I’ve heard some of their other new music and also seen the gameplay. It’s pretty insane.

You will like.

When I make a film or TV show I like to cram it with as much detail as possible. For one thing, my favourite film RAISING ARIZONA took me a full five watches to spot all the minutia.

And I loved every discovery along the way.

You always hope that someone out there will take the time to spot all the details.

Well just over 24 hours after posting, the guys at Gamervision are all over it.

Wow. Thanks to Luke Brown for spotting all the TLC that’s gone into this already.

There’s more where that came from.

Like the subject heading says.

Hope you enjoy.

  • Apologies for the tardiness in posting, but here’s a round up of all the footage of the amazing Spaced flashmob from last Saturday.

    The finger gun fights from SPACED 2.5 are still two of my favourite scenes I’ve ever shot.

    To see all hell break lose like this, mere minutes from where we edited this very sequence is heartwarming indeed.

    You crazy people, I love and adore you all.

    See more video at the Official Facebook Event Page.

    Many of you went along to the Spaced Gunfight Flashmob in Trafalgar Square last Saturday.

    Perhaps some of you really wanted to go, but couldn’t.

    Well, you are not alone…

    Enjoy.

    Thanks to Antonio Piluso for this great video.

    This is the second Scott Pilgrim rap in one week.

    Rather astonishing stuff.

    This time it comes from Adam WarRock (from the War Rocket Ajax crew – top marks for the Flash Gordon reference) and manages to recap the first 5 volumes of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s books in 5 minutes of rhymes.

    This rap was recorded just this weekend in anticipation of the final volume of the comic book hitting stores July 20th.

    Enjoy below…

    Tomorrow night, BBC 2 brings us at the ungodly hour of 23.45, the pilot for the new show from Jessica Hynes and Julia Davies.

    Also featuring the mighty Mark Heap and Kevin Eldon, prepare yourself for the dark majesty of…

    Lizzie and Sarah.

    The soundtrack for ‘Scott Pilgrim Vs The World’ is already jam packed with goodies, not least the aforementioned ‘Black Sheep’ by Metric. It’s all very exciting stuff and I’m looking forward to making love to your earholes.

    Now, it’s worth stressing that given the embarrassment of musical riches that we have at the moment, we are not looking for more material for the film’s soundtrack.

    But it would churlish of me not to link to this valiant effort to get on the OST.

    See below for a musical plea from Chicago’s own Former Fat Boys, who describe themselves on their Twitter page as “the best hip-hop duo on Earth since Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff”. That’s some serious shit right there.

    Enjoy their submission for the Scott Pilgrim soundtrack, ’7 Evil Exes’ which is in the grand tradition of movie raps from Will Smith, Bobby Brown and Partners In Kryme.

    Here it is, with lyrics after the clip…

    And here, by kind permission of The Former Fat Boys is the crazy ass rhymes of ’7 Evil Exes’…

    Its crazy this girl’s got me wrapped around her little finger
    She’s skating through my dreams, but i can’t say i’ve ever seen her
    She’s got an attitude, she’s got a fantastic butt
    But i’m playing with knives, so i just may get cut
    Cuz these are the details of my precious little life
    As i try to find a way to make it all work out right
    Its like its all been paused and she just pushed the start
    I can take on Ganon now, her potion refilled all my hearts
    All these evil exes and no exits to run to
    The old 1, 2 its only forward can’t go back no control z to undo
    Cuz i got a crazy ex who’s slightly underage, filled with rage
    Obsessed with my sex bob-omb on and off the stage
    And what i lack in confidence, i make up in spazz
    And when of flying array of demonic hipster chicks attacks
    I’ll just reflect their blast, send it back
    Cuz i’m that smooth
    I guess i can’t lose
    I’ll fight these bad dudes

    cuz she’s got 7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re coming and i’m running
    And i’m trying to defend
    Her honor and her life
    Cuz i’ve never lost a fight
    And I ain’t gon start tonight
    They’ll drop hard when i hook right

    cuz she’s got 7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re villians, super villians
    So this just might be the end
    So i grab on to her hand
    Jam out with my band
    It may look like i’m losing but
    That’s all part of the plan

    This must be punishment for my seven deadly sins
    That i committed cuz a little envy’s doing me in
    Like i’m samson, she’s delilah, i get a new haircut i die cuz
    That’s my weakness and this week is not my week cuz i am sleepless
    Between, lisa, envy, knives, kim, ramona, and winifred
    And 7 evil exes i’m worried my destruction is imminent
    I need lives unlimited, cuz i need wins not useless points
    With no bus fare, a long walk home unless i score me some coins
    Cuz i just wanna say i love you like i’m mario she’s peach
    But i’m feeling like a toadstool just staring at my feet
    And i keep getting letters spelling my impending doom
    But i just throw em in the trash cuz i am about to go boom on her

    7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re coming and i’m running
    And i’m trying to defend
    Her honor and her life
    Cuz i’ve never lost a fight
    And I ain’t gon start tonight
    They’ll drop hard when i hook right

    cuz she’s got 7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re villians, super villians
    So this just might be the end
    So i grab on to her hand
    Jam out with my band
    It may look like i’m losing but
    That’s all part of the plan

    Its like i’m embattled in an epic quarrell
    It’s like I’m jonathan strange but there’s 7 mr. norrells
    It’s like playing contra without 30 lives, I’m a die
    Mission impossible and I’m tom cruise now, not 95
    I can’t win, there’s an ex girlfriend now i can’t hit a chick
    Where do you punch ‘em, can’t kick her ass, can’t punch her tits shit
    If only i could find it, on this subspace road, a cheet code
    For something from the gilded house of flying burritos, mmm burritos
    I’ll use my bass guitar to whoop that vegan’s ass
    Manipulating sound waves like the boys and crash
    And i’ll take down that famous actor and score his autograph
    And if she lets me grab her boobs i’ll have the last laugh on her

    7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re coming and i’m running
    And i’m trying to defend
    Her honor and her life
    Cuz i’ve never lost a fight
    And I ain’t gon start tonight
    They’ll drop hard when i hook right

    cuz she’s got 7, 7, 7
    evil ex boyfriends
    And they’re villians, super villians
    So this just might be the end
    So i grab on to her hand
    Jam out with my band
    It may look like i’m losing but
    That’s all part of the plan

    Well there you go! They totally rhymed ‘crash’ with ‘vegan’s ass’. Much respect. If you enjoyed do give the @formerfatboys a big up on their Twitter.

    Again, we are not asking for or soundtrack submissions, but I thought it would be fun to post this one for your entertainment.

    Until next time.
