Edgar Wright: The Definitive Guide To Homages, Influences And References

Scott Pilgrim X Symbols Wright used a crazy amount of detail in his shots, stuffing most of them with cryptic clues. For example, Scott€™s parka has an original X-men logo on it, hinting at the impending evil-ex fighting.. There are also signs in the environment, such as when Scott and Knives pass through the snow on the way to Scott€™s bedsit and the lights on Ramona€™s side of the bus after the Rockit fight being all x€™s, as opposed to Scott€™s being hearts. Also, Scott tears off the x from his parka after leaving his bedsit via the window, adding to the seven exes in the previous shot and implying that he too could become an evil ex.
