    Looking forward to taking the whole day off to come to the signing. Ill get into NYC on Monday night and will leave late tuesday night. Would love to go to the screening (The wife and i saw it 5 times and never read the comic, Wright is a master director) but the tickets were sold out before we heard about it. Looking forward to this like a demon.

    Hey Edgar,
    I have been trying to meet you since San Diego Comic Con. I tried again at the Apple store in SoHo. I would like to give you my demo reel. I am a filmmaker. I just finished my first feature. It stars James Duval (Donnie Darko). I was hoping to give you the reel at the dvd signing in NY. I just wanted to see if you would be interested. I would love to get your opinion! I am a huge fan, and your movies have been a huge inspiration to me as a filmmaker. Thanks!
    -Arthur

    Hey, so the tickets to the screening sold out before I could get a chance to buy them. Unfortunately a close friend/super Scott Pilgrim fan can’t make it to the signing. So for the signing, is it going to be limited to one thing getting signed, or could I get 2 done for me and a friend?

    I’m in. Now the question is whether I lug in my extra large Scott Pilgrim mondo print to get signed or my Land of the Dead one sheet to push your way…or….both….~brain explodes~

    Already got my ticket.

    Oh man! Pope’s gonna be there, too?! SO awesome! I love both your works (and Kieran’s :) so much! I was an extra in ‘Spider-Man 2′ when it shot/I lived in Chicago and chatted it up with Mr. Raimi (and saw Bill Pope from afar - I’m a big enough fan that I recognized him ;) Hope to do the same in NY. Thanks for all the great screenings and fanservice, Edgar! See you there (AND in L.A! :)

    I almost bought tickets, but figured that I might get beat up if I admit to anyone that the only reason I flew to NYC was to see “Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World.” People that live nearby should break any plans that they may have because these screenings are a blast.

    Do you know what time this Best Buy event ends? I might have his event to go to.

      7pm - 9pm.

        Is there any chance that Kieran might be at the screening on the 8th? I can justify the $300+ roundtrip flight from Seattle, but not two nights of hotel charges in NYC. This way I can fly in on the redeye on the 7th (arriving on the 8th), and back out again on the morning of the 9th, rather than having to stay in NYC for two nights. I know that doesn’t make sense. Maybe I could find someone to crash with…

        The only thing that would suck about flying back on the morning of the 9th would be that I’d have to wait until I got back to Seattle to pick up the Blu-ray. No laughing at the commentary tracks during my flight back to Seattle…

        If this works out, my first trip to NYC would include my 34th screening of your film…

        P.S. In case you missed it, Brie was great on Ferguson two nights ago.

          It’s possible. I’d say 60 percent definite.

        • http://www.xanga.com/agentq7 Ethan Harper

          Matthew!

          I am attending both the NYC screening AND the November 13th New Beverly screening (Originally the New Beverly one was to be my magical (because of the number and Edgar’s presence, obviously ;) 7th screening, but with the addition of New York (being so close to my Philadelphia home I couldn’t resist!) it looks like L.A. will have to be my 8th ;)

          ANYway, besides the excitement of being able to meet Edgar, Bill, Kieran, and whoever else (hopefully) surprises us at these screenings, the only other person I’d really love to meet/shake the hand of that’s not directly involved with the making of this wonderful film is YOU. Most of my friends/the random acquaintances I preach the gospel of this film to have such a funny reaction to my seeing it 6-7 times; I would enjoy meeting the man who’s broken my record 5-fold :) I’m enjoying your photography work, as well, and would love to show you some of my artwork (which you can view some/older pieces of here, if you’re so inclined: http://agentq7.xanga.com/albums) in person.

          So if you’re down for meeting a fellow über-fan and grabbing a meal or drink or something, hit me up here or at the ol’ Facebook. Hope to hear from you/see you soon! :)

        Thank God. I can go to both. lol. I was gonna cancel the event I had to go to.
