In 2010, I thought Scott Pilgrim was super clever but pretty misogynist & ipso facto little lame

Watching it in 2024…gotta be honest it feels cutting edge progressive. No one calls Knives or RF a used-up whore for any of the exes! RF fights for herself! Cera isn’t a hypertateman! The bar is SO LOW!

@Catvalente is there a link or something where its described what you saw as misogynist in the original movie back in 2010?

Its one of my fav movies, but i didnt notice any misogyny back then. And id like to learn.

@Neon @joshg all this plus the whole concept is fundamentally treating women as prizes to be won. Ramona is literally helpless around her exes.
