Everyone go see Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
Movie rules, and I know everyone here will appreciate it.
My GF was planning on seeing it last night, but by the time we really got ready at my place, we'd be going to the late show (9:40) and have to drive 30-45 minutes to get there, and another 30-45 minutes back.
She's been excited about the movie since it was announced, because she started reading the comics right after they came out.
We ended up hanging out with friends instead, and reschedules to tonight, because we can go to a somewhat earlier showing, and it won't be opening night (so it won't be packed-as-shit and/or sold out.)
This is the general consensus as far as I've heard. They can actually play okay... when they're not blackout drunk, which is most of their shows.
That would explain things. I could see them as being the kind of guys who don't know how to handle being as famous as they are, and end up partying their face off when they probably shouldn't, and being unable to handle playing in those circumstances.
But yeah, when I saw them, they played fucking amazing. Mind you, they were still maxed out on volume (fucking hell they were loud) but I didn't even really mind, because they killed it. And the pit was crazier for them than for Mastadon (which I found unbelievable).
