“Scott Pilgrim’s life is totally sweet. He’s 23 years old, he’s in a rock band, he’s ‘between jobs,’ and he’s dating a cute high school girl. Nothing could possibly go wrong, unless a seriously mind-blowing, dangerously fashionable, rollerblading delivery girl named Ramona Flowers starts cruising through his dreams and sailing by him at parties,” says the synopsis for the original graphic novel. “Will Scott’s awesome life get turned upside-down? Will he have to face Ramona’s seven evil ex-boyfriends in battle? The short answer is yes.”
