How To... Reinvent a Beloved Series with SCOTT PILGRIM TAKES OFF's co-creators | TIFF 2023
1 view • Nov 25, 2023
SCOTT PILGRIM TAKES OFF's co-creators Bryan Lee O'Malley and BenDavid Grabinski stop by TIFF's Studio 9 to discuss how they went about re-inventing Scott Pilgrim into an anime for a modern audience.
They discuss the origins of the project; their love for the anime studio Science Saru; the pressure returning to Scott Pilgrim after nearly 20 years; the logistics it took to re-unite the cast of SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD despite their busy schedules; the insane hidden easter-eggs and references you may (or may not) have noticed, including the craziest mashup of STREETS OF FIRE and BUBBLEGUM CRISIS ever; and the importance of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater soundtrack.
