10 Mind-Blowing Movie Details You Totally Missed

Edgar Wright is known for his stylized directorial choices, and his quirky filmic flair often elevates his projects to classic or near-classic status in their respective genres. So, it is no surprise that his first comic book film would be a visual delight rife with details that adapt the eccentric nature of the source material.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World may be a visually hyperactive film, but its frenetic presentation is actually easy to take in and does not feel overwhelming. If anything, the tiny but numerous visual components highlight the zany nature of the world Scott, Ramona Flowers and company inhabit, in addition to their own idiosyncrasies.

One remarkable example of Wright's deft handling of visual storytelling comes early on when Scott and Ramona are on a bus discussing the latter's 'Evil Exes'. There are X-shaped bokehs in the background as the two have their conversation and they later change to hearts after Scott and Ramona officially start dating and remain so until the scene ends.

This detail (alongside many others) was highlighted in the film's VFX breakdown that expertly highlights the film's many moving parts and how they coalesced into a chaotic but cohesive whole. It may seem like an insignificant detail at first but actually serves as an adorable and intricate representation of the budding love between the pair.
