Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World Tries To Convince Men To Dump Their Loyal Girlfriend For A Purple-Haired Slut

No film glorifies beta behavior more than Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. The manosphere as we know it really isn’t that old. Return of Kings started in 2012. Ideas like alpha fux/beta bux, cultural degeneracy, and the systematic emasculation of men were blossoming but still wouldn’t be fully developed for a few years.

In hindsight we see that these were always there, but were generally well hidden. However, as time went on they were increasingly exposed. Perhaps the most blatant attempt to emasculate men was to glorify weak men in the media. With its release in 2010, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World was the culmination of the glorification of beta behaviors.

The Male Lead

Aren’t you afraid of the punch that’s coming?

Scott Pilgrim is played by Michael Cera. Now I have no qualms with Michael Cera, but if there was an actor made to play a beta, it’s him.

No muscle. Soft voice. Hipster appearance. He is not threatening in any way. It’s not hard to imagine that his genitals don’t work at all.

The Female Lead

Recognize that look?

Ramona Flowers is the name of the love interest. Notice that she exhibits all the tell-tale signs. Unnaturally colored hair. Ugly features. Bitchy, sarcastic attitude. Thousand-cock stare. An “I’m so over it” attitude.

The Plot

The plot of the movie is the most blatantly beta aspect of the film. Scott Pilgrim sees Ramona Flowers at a party and becomes infatuated with her. He starts to date her, though he already has a girlfriend. His girlfriend is loyal, attractive, Asian, and normal-looking. Eventually he leaves his girlfriend to pursue Ramona.

The makers of the film expect us to believe that a man would leave this girl for the purple-haired one

In order to be with Ramona he must “defeat” her seven evil exes. If seven doesn’t sound like too many to you (and depending on a woman’s age it might not be that bad), the quality of these exes reveals the degeneracy of the character’s life.

Some of her exes are just regular dudes. One of her exes is a woman. That’s a huge red flag we now recognize. Two of her exes are twins. It’s not hard to imagine that these twins treated her to a DP session or two. One of her exes is a Hollywood actor, another an owner of a successful record label.

Based on these exes we can now put together a narrative of this girls dating history. She got some attention for her pink hair and “lovably sarcastic” attitude that fed her ego like a drug. Like drug addicts do, she then needed more attention and excitement. So she started dating girls, and twins. She got successful men.

Now one guy, average at guy at best, is supposed to be able to give her everything she needs to feed her inflated ego and excite her like the twins, girls, and alpha males did? Not likely. And for some reason Scott Pilgrim still pursues her.

The Glorification

The first thing this movie glorifies is the slutty woman. Ramona Flowers is the subject of pursuit in this film. That pursuit is the central plot. The film glorifies this type of woman. About ten years ago a number films came out starring the “manic-pixie-dream girl” archetype (not a term I invented). Jennifer Aniston in Along Came Polly, Zoe Deschanel in 500 Days of Summer, and Ramona Flowers in Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World are all manic-pixie-dream girls. All these films center around the pursuit of such women by beta males.

Scott Pilgrim also leaves his girlfriend for Ramona. His girlfriend is portrayed as the crazy jealous type. This is the media’s way of devaluing loyalty and fidelity. It also portrays loyal women as less valuable than “interesting” women like the manic-pixie-dream girl Ramona.

Scott Pilgrim is clearly a beta male. Yet somehow he is the love interest of two women, one of whom is so madly in love with him that she is violently jealous of the ugly woman he pursues. In the real world betas don’t even bang the pink-haired loose women, yet somehow this guy has several women interested in him.

Most importantly the film glorifies an idea that one’s past does not matter. Even though Ramona’s exes betray the disgusting past she would prefer to keep secret, it doesn’t matter to Scott. He’s in love and love can conquer the sordid pasts of loose women.

In 2010 the manosphere wasn’t mature enough to call out the beta glorification of movies like this. Unfortunately, men who saw these movies during that time saw characters like these as objects of emulation. You want loyal women and slutty women to want you? Just be a beta like Scott Pilgrim.

Now we know better. When movies that glorify betas and women at the expense of strong men are released we call them out (as was done for this Star Wars movie and this Star Wars movie).

Hollywood got away with it for a long time. We are still combating the men who took to heart these beta ideas today. By calling out these movies of yesteryear we will hopefully make men influenced by them realize the folly of their ways.

  1. The purple haired girl has really nice facial features that’s the thing. A bit better overall than the Asian chick.
    If she just unfucked herself from the Splat hair dye, got any tattoos she might have removed, and took a little trip to defeminization camp (like denazification camp) , she’s sorted.

    1. Well she might have nice facial features but I would never pursue a woman who rode the cock carrousel in such a degree like Scott Pilgrim did. If she was an easy fuck I would definitely bang her but she is no wife or GF material.
      I would rather stick with the average looking Asian Girl that is probably a virgin and I could boss around since she is into me. Than a woman who was fucked by a thousand men and is already a self centered bitch. The more partners a girl has the more her ego and attitude grows. They are not worth it.
      Best place to find Wife material is in the country at Southern Protestant Church or Catholic ones. Those are usually loyal, virgin and know their right place

      1. I was just saying she’s “sorted” like she’ll be back on the right track. There’s no cure for ugly but thankfully she isn’t. She does have decent facial features and appears to be of an agreeable weight.
        The hair dye and whatever degenerate tats she might have can begone in an afternoon. I’m just “trying” to look on the bright side here even though I’ll probably get a lot of downvotes.

        1. No, you are wrong. A woman who has ridden the carousel cannot unride it any more than a woman who had acid thrown in her face can change the damage done to her. You can say its not her fault, she learned her lesson, etc. it doesnt matter.
          And it is genuine damage. Now some men can live woth that, some men can also look past the hideous scars on the acid victims face and see the beautiful woman inside. Frankly, I would argue that the acid victim would actually be a better option. Because the acid damage is superficial. The carousel rider has demonstrated a deeply flawed character which children will inherit, probably picked up a few diseases, which her children can inherit, and is a permanent character risk.
          In an age where divorce can permanently ruin a man and he will have no say whatsoever on what happens to his children, a risky character is simply too great a liability.

        2. the revirginated slut? hahaha, The washed and clean slut? The born again Christian whore? There is a reason why women are the more prominent supporters of the idea, “let the past in the past, ok?”. AWALT, women fuck guys all the time, the same we fuck girl. But you will never known or she will convince himself that, that does not count because XY excuse.

        3. umm…. actress and movie…means its all contrived fakery seling a message. The whole point of the movie.
          start at the very first thought…fiction, and then stop. all the rest is to get you to compromise by overthinking and consuming the FICTION, the LIE. it is not a portrayal of reality. it is raw mental head games advertising to sell you acceptance of feminism.
          im guilty of it myself, until i stopped thinking at the word movie and replaced movie with intricately calculated LIE. then it became so much easier.

    2. She’s the home wrecker that convinced Ewan McGregor to leave his much prettier wife and then dumped him

      1. Did you see her ex boyfriend? He look like an uber soy boy no wonder why she dumped him for obi wan.

      1. Yeah, she was pretty banging in Die Hard 4 and even in the remake of The Thing. Scott Pilgrim proved that even hot chicks look ugly in purple hair.

      1. Hey Jared, how about you do a review on “Liberated” Netflix movie.
        It’s a documentary on spring rape, I mean spring break. Here you really see the “rape culture” for what it is and also get to see a “Chad” real alpha in action all in the middle of your typical cock fest. Really opens the eyes to all those 90% who think game opens all the legs. There’s 5 blokes and only one guy slays like 3 girls. The girls don’t even lay eyes on the other 4. Hmmmm I wonder why?
        Would love to see that movie dissected on ROK. Especially this game/alpha example.

    3. I kinda thought the same thing, and so did the casting director, no doubt. This movie along with Star Wars goes out of its way to find the least attractive asian women possible when there are plenty of hot ones out there – probably more than white women in many parts of America. Not that this girl is thick, but in Star Wars they found a fattie to double down and ensure she would not distract from the lead female role too much.
      Even though they tried to find an unattractive asian chick for this film she’s still hotter than what the purple haired white waste case did to herself. Nice try, though.

    4. I get why you’re getting downvoted, but I agree. IRL Mary Elizabeth Winstead is hot as hell.
      If anything, the argument should be that her character would not be that attractive IRL,

  2. In real life, the guys ‘loyal GF’…..IS the slut. He just doesn’t know it, or knowingly denies it to himself and anyone around him who allows him to.

  3. “Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World” is also chomped full of Occultist/Masonic symbolism too. It was directed by Edgar Wright, who also directed and wrote the Cornetto Triology (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World’s End). A few years ago I wrote up a full analysis of these symbols and posted it online on an old blog. Edgar Wright actually responded to the article (he neither confirmed or denied) what I had written and it sent over 10000 views to my page in a day.
    Scott himself isn’t actually the most likeable of heroes. He’s a shitty hipster with almost no likeable traits. His excuse for his shitty behavior is that his previous GF becomes super successful and leaves him. This sets him up to start dating a high school girl when he’s 23 and she’s 17. It’s not until the end of the movie that he redeems himself in any meaningful way

    1. Redeems himself? He dumps a girl who loved him for a bitch who rode the cock carrousel so much that she is more worn out than a Bus Seat.
      He was already a total super beta nerd. Michael Cera is the perfect actor to portray a total beta. He has no alpha/manly facial features: no beard, rounded face, face of an underdeveloped male that doesnt lift and looks like your typical white male nerd who plays D&D all day long.
      The Ending is stupid. Scott Pilgrim is probably one of the biggest Beta Blue Pill brainwashing propaganda ever made. If the story was real he would never have banged the asian girl and Ramona Flowers would just have some fun with him to increase her ago and drive him crazy and then ditch him and go look for another Alpha Male to mistreat her.

    2. Shit. That would mean a hypothetical Scott Pilgrim would be 30 now. Probably just over broke in some low level sales job in Toronto.

      1. Or due to his Nerd intelligence he might be a rich tech-kid who foundead a startup and is financially succesful. But due to having a total blue pill brain has a terrible love lifein which he is cucked by an Alpha Bitch. Maybe him and Ramona Flowers got married and he is raising the kids that she had with an alpha male.
        Whathever his destiny he will always be a cucked loser. That woman will take advantage of ….

  4. I always saw this graphic novel series (and the movie) as the origin of all that plague-level of simping happening to this day and the popularity of blue hair dye (one of Ramona Flowers’ trademarks). Hell, the author/writer is even some hipster from Canada.

      1. @TheOnceAndFutureKing
        one? there was 3. Wallace, other scott and anna kendrick’s ex boyfriend.

        1. Oh yeah, haven’t seen it in a decade and its clear how much of an impact its left on me.

  5. You want loyal women and slutty women to want you? Just be a beta like Scott Pilgrim… Now we know better
    Amen. You are doing the Lord’s work Jared.
    Much of my life was flushed down the toilet thanks to exactly that kind of poisonous messaging. I was an introvert and my entire world view was shaped by TV programming. Needless to say, it did me no good at all.
    To any other introverted beta types out there, listen to Jared. He is speaking the absolute truth.

    1. Thanks man I deal with it too. We’ve grown a lot in the right direction. And since we know the truth we have to call it out so the next generation can see it

  6. Agreed with everything in article until author made the claim men emulated this queer shit – maybe millennial faggots who watched the movie when they were 13 or 14 or some shit and only have a single mom , but give men some credit – not EVERY dude is influenced by shitty movies and tries to act like the men (homos) in the movies. Most men see through this kind of bullshit – its millennial ‘men’ / boys who are the ones who are influenced by this shit, but generally speaking men shouldn’t be getting their ideas form movies to begin with.
    I dont know, maybe its just me and I come form too normal of a family but I never watched faggot shit like this growing up – I saw some weird shit and movies as a kid but normally if it was anything too fucked up or bizarre my parents wouldn’t let me watch it or they would explain that its just a movie and all bullshit – as opposed to today where ANYTHING goes and if you tell or restrict your kids behavior in ANY way your deemed an ‘asshole’ parent and ‘overly protective’ – The breakdown of the movie in this article is fine it seems like and its worth mentioning, but give guys a bit of credit, we can see through the bullshit if we were raise din a decent family. Although I realize a lot of faggot millianial dudes need the advice so maybe there’s nothing to complain about here. Oh, by the way, don’t forget the movie Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind; a precursor to this kind of gay shit.

    1. I can’t believe you guys hate all these movies. Eternal Sunshine doesn’t hide the fact that it’s about a beta male romance, and the cinematography and surreal plot are pretty unique.

      1. KENT
        Scott Pilgrim faggot is Eternal Sunshine 2.0 – same shit, different ‘story’ – I don’t have a problem with ‘artsy’ shit – its when the dude in the movie is too much of a fuckin idiot to walk aay from the ‘romance’ that I have a problem. Here’s the deal man, old movies (like black and white shit) women in the past use to always bitch and complain that women were portrayed as ‘stupid’ and ‘clumsy’ or ‘dumb’ in the movies – since feminism its been the opposite and were at the height of it – men are portrayed as either objects to lust over (male superhero’s who are shredded) or they are portrayed as idiotic beta’s like the article mentions. White guys in movies now rarely = reality.
        Sur eman, from an ‘artistic’ point of view Eternal Sunshine is ‘fine’ or whatever, but the WHOLE underlying premise of that movie is that the dude should put up with the girls bullshit and ‘love’ her dumbass regardless of the fact that she treats him like a piece of shit. It tries to mimic the ‘reality’ of modern relationships and it succeeds in that department – but it also distorts it too. Jim Carrey’s character isn’t just a fuckin beta, he is quite possibly the most beta man ever put to screen. Yeah yeah I know men are the true romantics and everything ok, but the fact remains that if Jim Carrey slapped that fuckin bitch and told her she’s a stupid fuckin slut like any sane human being the movie would’ve never gotten made. Feminism’s prime directive is to distort reality to the maximum possible. I think the point of THIS article was to point out how movies subconsciously manipulate men ok, point is if they say it enough times it becomes ‘truth’ and reality – well – at least that’s what they want us to believe, and for the most part it works on betas – its best to boycott this kind of faggot shit. I realize there’s a time and a place for ‘art’ but its best to demonize faggot movies before they enter the cultural narrative.
        Men a 100 years ago would be confused as fuck about Eternal Sunshine – hell if my dad saw that shit he’d wonder what the fuck mental condition Jim Carreys character has – aside form the artistic expression and all that, most men 100 years ago would never even bother finishing Eternal Sunshine because they’d never agree to watching such profound garbage. If you want any clear answers in todays world simply consult your grandpa or think about how a man 100 years ago would react. If he would see ANY problems with it IMMEDIATLY then he’d either rmock the shit out of it or ignore it all together. This kind of faggot shit gets way too much attention from guys.

        1. Yeah fair enough I get what you’re saying.
          You’re right that it’s all fundamentally degenerate, and it’s probably having a negative effect on young people to boot. I think my expectations nowadays are so low when it comes to mass culture that when I see fucking anything with some artistic merit I take notice.
          I’m defending these movies only because they at least have some interesting compositions and unique storytelling. They have a little bit more going on than the standard cut & paste action flick or drama.
          Trust me man I get what you’re saying. I don’t even own a TV because everything is just PC propaganda now. Everywhere I go in public I’m surrounded by non-stop government approved propaganda, and I know Hollywood is just an extension of that.


      2. Jim Carrey lays out the script of every beta with oneitis out there – the girl lays out the script for every fucked up bitch out there too – openly unapologetic and yet he still wants her, its the battle cry of a defeated man and a girl who won’t simply accept that a dude genuinely likes her and she thinks she still has to act defensive and play games – all kinds of doublespeak from her “If you wanna be with me, your with me” – Really? REALLY!? Its the height of DISTORED reality – “Too many guys think I’m a concept or I complete them, or I’m going to make them alive.” – true, true, there are definitely TONS of lost males with hardcore oneitis who are looking for ‘the one’ – Then she goes on to say, “I’m just a fucked up girl looking for my own piece of mind.” – and BLAMO! Why the fuck do guys PUT UP with this garbage…!? HOLY FUCK…The writing of this script is deceitful because it’s all half-truths – Jim Carrey’s character says, “I still thougth you were gunna save my life!” – Holy shit…any red-pill aware guy will be cringing hard here – its really unfortunate because guys DO WANT ‘love’ and genuine affection and are the real romantics, but to say it so openly and to such a trashy messe dup chick makes modern girls think they ALL have inherently HIGH value while acting like retards. Men have hard romantic tendency’s on a deep level, but when they put up with garbage girls and FEED the girls all of THEIR love to trash the girl gets a hyper distorted reality of what real love and relationships even men. “I’m treating him like shit and he STILL loves me!” – she’s either thinking, “What the fuck is wrong with this guy” or “He’s about as needy and insecure a bitch as me” – It puts men on a woman’s ‘level’ – which is why girls exploit men any chance they can get. Girls DO NOT have the same deep reservoirs of love which men have, they just don’t, no matter how much they bitch and cry and say they do they do not even come close to the level of love which men have. To put up with a gutter slut is to play into the blue pilled mindset of oneitis and to fall victim to a womans shitty behavior. Why the fuck do men put up with this shit? Its cuse they ‘believe’ in their love totally and completely – its fuckin unfortunate the girls guys love are such incredible pieces of shit.

        1. Oh some othe rshit I just noticed, when girls ‘talk like men’ the girl isn’t worth your time. When a girl dishes out profanitys, or she acts like she’s on a guys level, “Look MAN…” – Whenever a girl calls me ‘man’ my slut radar immediately goes off. And not just the slut radar. Girls that call guys ‘man’ subconsciously DO NOT want HIM. She’s not accepting her natural role as girl, and so she puts herself on his level, “look MAN” – that’s how MEN talk to OTHER men, not how a girl should EVER talk to a guy. By the way for the up and coming PUA’s when a girl calls you ‘man’ neg her immediatly and just say, “DONT call me man” – it sounds stupid reading it, but the girl will get what your saying instantly and will realize the communication needs to be WOMAN TO MAN between you two.
          NOT to dog on PewDewpie – I actually don’t have a problem with the dude – but I noticed watching osme of his videos with his girlfriend that she does the same shit – she calls him ‘man’ – and not rarely, but I’ve seen it enough times to think its a trend in their relationship. Pewdewpie has sort of ‘red-pilled’ a lot of peoples ok, normally he goes against the mainstream and will call a spade a spade, but he has some tendencies which are a bit beta, he’s not as badass as he COULD be. Like the beard is a nice touch, but ultimately I think he’s a dude trapped in a world he can’t ge tout of. If he wasn’t a youtube celebrity and didn’t dominate youtube and make bank off of it I doubt he would still play videogames and shit. Anyways, the point was simply that I noticed his girlfriend would call him ‘man’ and it irked me – shes YOUR girl but she’s not just your ‘friend’, she’s NOT on the same level as you, its like calling your dad homie or some shit, its disrespectful as all fuck and its a subconscious / or conscious neg on the girls part towards the guy.


        2. “DUDE I’m changing…” – Again, the girl puts herself on the guys level by calling him ‘dude’ – a word used for either friends or for guys only with other guys. Same thing as when a girl calls a guy ‘MAN’ – she subconsciously doesn’t give a fuck about him and attempts to put herself on his level of communication.
          Not to mention this clip alone is fuckin faggy and annoying, but again we have a self-entitled little slut whose going to determine the course of the ‘relationship’ – “I reserve the right to when we have sex” and the beta happily follows suit….Scott Pilgrim will eventually turn into Jim Carrey from Eternal Sunshine…ATER he’s been led on by her for years and year he’ll still come back to her wanting to reconcile – because that’s what guys in love dude – I get it ok, some men are beta, and some love hard, and some want to forgive and forget and be the ‘better’ man for it etc etc, but its really unfortunate that the love men give goes to some of the trashiest sluts ever conceived on earth.

        3. Its all faggot role-reversal – girls acting like men and men acting like girls. Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine says, “I still thought you were going to save my life.” – THATS what girls would say and BEG for when they were outcasts and exiled in the wastelands and with no where to go and she comes across a guy and she’s begging him to save HER life. When IN NATURE has a man EVER said to a girl, “I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO SAVE MY LIFE?” – fuckin never. If the girl in Eternal Sunshine actually ACTED like a girl, Jim Carrey would probably still love her, but he would express his love in less verbal and needy ways – EVERYTHING in relationships balances out when both genders play their parts. When girls don’t act like girls, guys end up becoming needy and insecure because he doesn’t know how else to express his romantic interest, which turns girls off MAJOR. BUT if she just acted like a fuckin girl the man would follow suit and treat her more like what she wants (less insecure, less needy, less beta) and he would try to dominate her more and overall be more of a man that she desires.
          As far as scott pilgrim faggot goes that bitch is way too far gone to even bother with, bang her out and move on. The movie is a shitty example of the feminist prime directive of reversing roles and making the girl ‘decided’ when their going to have sex. Scott pilgrim acts literally JUST like a girl and the girl acts literally JUST like a guy. It’s fuckin annoying and retarded bullshit. Watching 30 seconds of this trash is enough to make me vomit.

        4. STFU already. If you can’t get your point across in one single comment, why write 6 big comments in a row? Kill yourself.

        5. And on the flip side I like this movie BECAUSE of how honest it is about how pathetic modern relationships are.
          What you’re noticing in this film is incredibly common nowadays. People now actually are this dysfunctional, which to me makes it an interesting movie.

        6. Also I think the world has changed dramatically just in the last few years since these movies came out.
          The innocence in the West that still kind of existed when these movies were released is quickly evaporating, which makes these movies even more cringey to watch now than when they first came out.

        7. Calm down CUCK, I’ll let you have dibs fucking your mom after I’m done, I know how much you like to watch but your gunna have to wait your turn

        8. In response to your comment about role reversal, its very true.
          99% of romcoms or sitcoms always portray the women as the level headed ones who get to decide when sex is allowed, and the men just follow them around like needy children.
          Sickening af


        9. Just watched this and Lauren Southeren reminded me of these girls…1:15:30 in…Lauren say’s to Roosh, “Roosh, I don’t hate you MAN, I find some of your stuff entertaining actually but uhh I certaintly don’t agree with you on alot.” – Whatever her real opinoins of Roosh are are besides the point. It’s the fact that this girl (who seems a bit butch to me) call’s him ‘MAN’ – sound familiar??? Ha, MAN it made me laugh out loud when I heard it. Sh’es trying to put herself on a man’s intellectual level. What a joke.

  7. I liked the “manic-pixie-dream-girl” description.
    My first thought was of Sarah Jessica Parker in LA Story. I think that is kind of the opposite, where Steve Martin messes around with her for a bit, and then goes back to the normal British girl…

  8. I feel your pain brother. I used to view the main characters from movies like SuperBad and Scott Pilgrim as my role models. I was a total blue pilled loser back in High School I definitely lost lots of opportunities to bang pretty girls because of shyness and Beta/Needy Behaviour.
    Even if I got redpilled on my 20th anniversary I´m 22 right now have muscles and a nice manly face. I feel i lost a lot of opportunities and its hard to catch up now when you already have the rep of being a beta in the eyes of woman and social circles of my town.

  9. The kind of girls that watch Anime liked this. Realistically, too much was made over a 23 year old with a high school senior. We all know that males mature at/about 26, females 16. So the idea that it was better to have an older slut than a younger wife-type is a major propaganda device. The main issue that is never addressed with the female slut tropes is that of STDs. Chylmaedia is no joke; in the female it leads to all sorts of long term health issues that are seemingly non-genitally related. Or so the immature female mind is led to believe. There is no free lunch, and no free disease. Look at all the Hep C drugs being pushed to drug addled Boomers. In the female anatomy, everything is inside; vaginas are petri dishes that are a danger for the man, as well as any off spring she may produce.
    I would be wondering what kind of nasty super bugs that any purple haired leech might possess. Bon appetit!

  10. These are all left side of the bell curve people. It’s consistent with the leftist insistence to love the ugly over the beautiful and weak over the strong. Reminder, that’s all leftism is…the rule of the unfit, left side of the distribution curve.

  11. If you’re taking life advice from Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, I don’t think you belong here.

    1. why the beta love to use that kind sweater, I swear to never use one again because of those loser. is the Sheldon Cooper fashion style.

  12. I read the comics as a young man in the 00’s. A girlfriend who dyed her hair different colors monthly loaned them to me, ironically. It feels like decades ago or a past life or something. I can tell you that my friends who idolized this shit don’t have very good lives now that we’re all in our 30’s. Even back then I realized it’s essentially a fantasy world where everyone spends all their time at concerts/parties, gets by working part-time, and damaged girls can be fixed with TLC(in the same way that in the context of a romantic movie, over-the-top gestures like sending flowers to a woman’s work after your first date are sweet, not creepy).
    The comic was at least self-aware in a lot of regards. Take the evil exes gunning for Scott, for instance. Most manic pixies don’t seem to have tons of exes and orbiters unlike a real life “quirky” girl with a cluster b personality disorder. If Natalie Portman’s character in Garden State was a real girl she’d have taken a mile of cocks, all her friends would be guys, and a bunch of exes would have come sniffing around when Zach Braff’s character started dating her.
    The Hollywood adaptation purposefully beta-ized him. In the comic he had spurts of reckless courage and was so self-absorbed he hurt people without realizing it(lesser alpha proof?). The movie turned this into typical awkward Michael Cera role behavior. As the article pointed out, it’s really difficult to imagine him being in a love triangle(not to mention Brie Larson’s character still having lingering feelings for him after briefly dating him in High School). It didn’t occur to me this might have been an attempt at conditioning the audience to be more beta.

    1. I don’t disagree with the article, or any your commments. But I will say I loved the comic series. The comic was intended to make fun of Manga/Anime, and all the common Manga archetypes (inspired by the book Even a Monkey can Draw Anime), not teach life lessons or indoctrinate the culture.
      I never saw Scott Pilgrim as someone a person should try to be like or Ramona as a desirable female.
      To me this book is about the white underbelly hipster seen. Almost everyone in the book has a low SMV by design and this is just how that portion of society behaves. Artists often try to find beauty in the gutters and that’s really what the comic was to me.
      The movie was OK, but they blurred the lines between Anime culture and Feminist culture, by making Scott Pilgrim too cuckish (like you said, the character in the comic is a mixed bag).

  13. “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”, huh?
    Glad I never saw it.
    Now, how about a review of “I Spit on Your Grave 2”?
    The first half was fantastic.
    The second half sucked.

  14. PLEASE READ; THIS MAY AS WELL BE MY EPITAPH. This movie is the spark that got me to dump the only girl who ever loved me. Met her two years after my divorce. She was 20. I was 26. She was perfect (as far as girls go) for me, but I thought most girls were kind like her, not bitches like my ex-wife/first girlfiend.
    I always regreted breaking her heart. She never forgave me/ told me she’d call the cops if I talked to her again. I didn’t blame the movie, only because I was responsible for the decision to break it off. Plus, if she wouldn’t forgive me forbreaking it off, who’s to say she wouldn’t have broken it off for some other reason. I read the comics the movie is based on after I saw the movie. These were the last of my blue-pill days. I copied the style and made a fan-comic. Then I gave it to the author, Bryan Lee O’Malley at a book signing. He was a slightly cold, but newly fit, Korean American from North Carolina. There were a few girls that brought fan-art. Not any other guys. He said my art was better than most. I’ll never forget his genuine surprise as he looked over the short comic book I’d made. It was the thrill of a lifetime to gain approval from a famous comic artist. If I’d have known then how I’d come to hate his legacy for losing me the only true wife-material I’ve ever met, I might have said something mean, but it turns out I wouldn’t have had to. I found out a couple weeks later that his wife and him divorced like the weekend I met him. She was Hope Larson, another up-and-coming comic artist in the industry. Enough to make me wish I’d have been able to tell him I could have sympathized with him at the time. Fuck this sexual marketplace, but Bryan Lee O’Malley got his. So did Edgar Wright, if you look up Ant Man. If I’d seen them coming, if only. Of course, if it wasn’t for Scott Pilgrim, I wouldn’t be here on ROK.

    1. Do you mean that the movie/comic made you want to want to pursue a Ramona Flowers type and/or live a more bohemian lifestyle? You wouldn’t be alone. Untold numbers of women have been fooled by trash like Eat Pray Love, for instance.
      Don’t give in to despair. In my late 20’s I thought I’d missed my big chance. In my youth I attracted a number of shy religious girls(maybe they saw nascent conservatism in me) and passed them up to chase manic pixie types.
      Anyways, I probably didn’t deserve it but life did give me another chance. Sometimes a guy at work will rib me about having daughters(“You must feel outnumbered!” “Are you tired of watching My Pretty Pony yet?”) but I thank God for what I have. I could have easily ended up with no children at 35 and still hanging around (now post-wall) slutty “geek girl” types.

      1. Movie made me want to look for a girl who didn’t seem so naive. She was 20. She didn’t have any life experience, and as a divorcee at 24 with two kids and a dead father I wanted to find someone who, I don’t know, would see my scars. She loved without hesitation, but another factor was that she was a HUGE cock tease. She’d go to third base and throw on the breaks every time. Blue-balls city. I’d get her down to wet panties and then: screeetch! No sex. Never sex. No even a good “old fashioned.” After six months of trying to get a bang, I thought I’d look elsewhere. Rumor has it that after I broke it off, she turned 21 and became a super-slut. How’s that for irony. If only I’d have been red-pilled back then….

        1. Don’t beat yourself up about it. There’s a very good chance (<90%) that her change was a result of your leaving, so it’s not like if you had just been patient that she would have all the sudden turned the corner with you.
          You can never tell how things would have turned out in the past. Besides even at 20 she shouldn’t have been leaving you with blue balls for six months. Even if she was religious it’s not like she was clueless about how human sexuality works.

        2. If she was a slut after that, she had a slut mentality all along. But a part of actually getting married to someone like that is you have to wait. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be a virgin to begin with. If a girl sleeps with you on the first date, of course, she’s going to sleep with other guys on the first date. Likewise, a virgin doesn’t put out for anyone at all, making her a virgin.
          The fantasy is that a girl will lose her virginity to you sometime before marriage. But it’s like anything else: if she’s “losing” it to you before marriage, she already has.

        3. A relationship isn’t going to work if it’s six months of 2nd and 3rd base. Something is not always better than nothing.

  15. Amen, this movie is the epitome of modern day beta males.
    Women can be sassy purple haired skanks who ride cock more than a kid rides roller coasters at Six Flags, and whatever simp settles down with her has to deal with it while jumping through all kinds of hoops to make her happy. Truly disgusting.
    Bonus points for the movie also promoting faggotry.

  16. The original ending was supposed to be Scott ending up with the Asian chick,but that was changed due to test audience feedback.
    hmm really makes you think

  17. The author might not have anything against Michael Cera, but he’s the kind of buttery XXY twerp I’ve always despised. I only ever watch a movie with Cera in it for the hope of seeing him punched in the face.
    But like girl-action films which give women unrealistic visions of their own physical prowess, movies like SPVTW give betas completely ludicrous visions of their attractiveness to girls. “Are you a limpdick beta? Don’t worry, be like Scott Pilgrim, and have girls fighting over you!” Yeah right.

  18. Did you know that the ORIGINAL ending was actually red pilled?
    In the original ending had Scott Pilgrim go with the Asian girl because he realises how messed up Flowers is and that he was chasing a fantasy of a girl rather than the girl herself. However in the focus groups, and probably all the FEMALES in the focus groups hated that ending.
    So effectively they changed the OBVIOUS ending to the demands of the female population.
    If the author did a bit more research he could have included this fact in this article.

    1. That’s hardly ‘red-pill’ considering what the movie is on a whole – endings are by and large the most forgotten parts of films – the only thing that can save a movie like Scott Pilgrim is if the main dude slaps the bitch acorss the face and tells her shes a fuckin slut and walks out on her – or better yet, he fucks her, laughs at her for being a whore, then slaps her and walks out on her with no remorse – THAT is literally the only thing that can save such a fucking mess of a movie – they take their bullshit to the extreme, so they only get the extreme in return.

      This is a great clip – my personal favorite is 0:40 seconds in.

      1. Not really, they are just different approaches to being red pilled. Scott Pilgrim totally going against his beta expectations at the end and choosing a different, but the better girl, is not red pilled? Sure he still isn’t a down-right alpha like Sean Connery, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t red pilled. In some senses it is more red pilled, since Connery is always automatically an alpha anyway, you expect him to do these types of things.

        1. No, its not – do you even know what red-pilled means? Your th eone sitting here bitching that the author of the article should done and I quote, “a bit more research” – Are you fuckin out of your mind right now dude? A bit more research???? ON THIS FAGGOT SHIT? Don’t you think he’s done enough already? For fucks sake man? Do you want a fuckin dissertation on the Scott Pilgrim faggot? Jesus fuck dude – not to mention but in my commenst above I’ve already broken the movie apart more than it even fuckin deserves, and the fact that there’s even an article on this site about this fag shit is more than enough. But NO, your gunna sit there and bitch about some faggot ending to a faggot movie .
          “OH, if he was REALLY red-pilled he would’ve done x,y, z and double z and double y and didn’t you know they probably had focus groups WITH Girls! WOW, like, can you BELIEVE it guys! Guys, guys, guys…didn’t you KNOW they probably had focus groups and they didn’t like the REAL ending, that REAL ending was so RED-PILL” – that’s what you sound like dude, like a fuckin homo. Quit while your ahead. No one gives a fuck about how ‘red-pill’ an ending could be to one of the gayest fuckin queer movies ever made – seriously man – its like saying porn could be ‘red-pill’ – go looks up Roosh’s blog on ‘Neo-masculinity’, unplugged yourself from society for a good 6 months, get rid of your faggot videogames and anime, THEN come back to me and we talk. But oyu don’t have a fuckin clue man.

  19. Near the end you referenced the latest Star Wars movies.
    If some deluded person ever asks me did I like these awful feminized monstrosities, I just like to say : “Nah, I’m not interested in chick flicks.’

    1. Calling the last three (I’m including “Rogue One”) chick flicks is actually a compliment.
      After seeing “The Force Awakens” I simply refused to see the other two. That would only make the people behind all of this trash wealthier.

  20. ya know, what is more shocking is how much effort and mind bending the commenters gonto try and grasp and make sense of this movie…which is exactly what it was engineered for……..to SOCIAL ENGINEER a mindset and compromise in persons mind about the subject. i didnt see the movie or the article, i went straight to the comments read essentially the first two sentence synopsis and was relieved i hadnt wasted my time going deeper into the whole mess and just dismissed the topic outright…..see my other comment up above. Fiction, a complete work of LIE, designed to get you to compromise your sense and even marginally accept the huge mindfuck message for consideration…when you know its fake and lie to start with. why did you all play so easily right into the social engineering?

    1. i actually went full stop at rhe very first purple haired pic with the dude, and said to myself out loud…”NOPE..This is bullshit already”…went straight to the comments, saw how hars people wirked at putting themselves in the movie lead role and instantly knew the engineering was working against the TARGETED AUDIENCE, and that audience is not the blue pill cucks butnto persuade red pilled to soften their position and come willingly to feminisms embrace. its scary that people dont see it for what it is. Holyweird is a shit show of powerful subtle mental conditioning and persuasion.

      1. You’re correct. The slick persuasive advertising doesn’t stop when the show comes back on. Big business spend millions of dollars for 30 seconds of air that is highly affective selling product and brand message yet we naively believe the programs we watch aren’t doing the same thing.

        1. Well what I was alluding to is that they present this as the pretty looking clown circus act hair do feminist trash but because she is halfway normal looking body wise, your mind ACCEPTS that clown act colored hair bitches are really NOT all that bad…until you think about it rationally and can’t think of a SINGLE actual Crayola crayon colored freak feminist that is REMOTELY pretty or anything less than 5 times more obnoxious as the fake character that you have ever seen in your own life…but by this point you have already ACCEPTED a 2% or more acceptance OF THE CHARACTER attributes, as not so bad….that new normal in your mind bleeds over in acceptance of ALL freak haired women but it is all based on a subtle LIE and programming, but now ITS TOO LATE you are 2% CLOSER to accepting feminism (and all the other programming in this movie) as “normal” when it is glaringly OPPOSITE of reality. You know how they got White Knights and Blue pills to accept FEMINSIM……by subtle programming DEGREES of installing it as NORMAL through this very method of programming. I didnt even get it until the one time I outrightly dismissed the Movie programming because it became OBVIOUS that it was full spectrum mental conditioning to ACCEPTANCE of the New normal…. you know what movie it was? The Fifth Element….. because when you actually sit down and think about ALL of the programming in it….it becomes SHOCKING to realize how you accepted certain premises of the movie and you carried them over into your daily life as NORMAL.

      2. Not quite.
        Saying the purple-haired girl could be attractive means just that- she COULD be a keeper; so why isn’t she? That was why Disney didn’t make the “Ugly Stepsisters” in Cinderella physically hideous as they were in the original fairy tale: it was their attitudes that made them ugly.
        But instead what actually makes her UNdesirable is being glorified as desirable, just as there is an effort to make fat women with tattoos out to be sexy.
        None of this softens stances against feminism. It analyzes just what is being done, how it is being done, and, well, haven’t you ever heard the expression “know thy enemy?”
        Believe me, the opposition spent decades doing that to us. It’s past time we did it to them.

    2. Deplorable always makes good points – I agree, alot of it too is men NOT realizing a womans games and ENDING her bullshit IMMEDIATLY – films get away with this kind of bullshit because men have become subservient little zombies and yesmen to women – look at the James Bond clip above 1:22 minutes in – Bond asks her a question and she trys to derail the question and he immediatly slaps her for it – theres no ‘lets have a conversation’ and talk it through, no, he knows what she’s doing and he puts a stop to it immediatly, if you don’t do that with girls your a fuckin beta – and don’t try to put her in her place at work though unless you don’t mind getting fired – took me a few lost jobs before I realized I can’t work with girls. But the main point is you can’t slap a movie or quesiton it, you just have to sit there and accept the propaganda, or if you have half a brain you can walk out.

  21. What is odd is that in the 20 years I have been overseas styles have not changed a bit since the late 90’s.
    Goths are fewer in number but otherwise “hipsters” look like the slackers I remembered from 1998.
    Same with Ramona-her fucking MOM could have passed with the same look in 95.
    What is pitiful about Gen Y is that they did not invent anything. Gen X at least tried to different and weird from hippies, although Grunge era slackers like I once was basically looked like a 70’s stoner in a flannel shirt.
    I mean Gen Y have invented nothing, changed nothing, done nothing.
    The series could be set in fucking 1995. Guy with cute normal girlfriend fucks an “alternative chicks.”

    1. It’s like that in so many aspects of pop culture. The average hip hop song, video, image, has changed very little in the last 20 years.

    2. What could they invent, what could they do?
      If Generation Y rebels at all against the toxic society they were brought up in then they have done quite a bit.
      If you look around you’ll see quite a bit- your problem is you’re only checking “mainstream;” you must check “alternative,” because that’s the only way Generation Y (or X for that matter) can get anything past what amounts to Baby Boomer censorship.

  22. The Office Party is the biggest bluegill of a movie I have seen. They took beta glorification to a whole new level where straight guys are inferior to women in every area imaginable and they are either divorced or dating single mothers.

    1. The ultimate act of cuckness, soon instead of saying my wife´s son, it will be my wife´s boyfriend. 20 years ago the fucker who marry a single mom, not only take care of the bastard, he give him a lastname and he was respected by the stepson and the mother. Now the son is “my wife´s son” only.

  23. Every film produced by (((hollywood))) has the singular goal of demoralizing/emasculating White males. Why? Because all of it is either written, produced, or directed by Jews (often all three), and Jews have been waging a coward’s war against Whites for thousands of years. Film is only the latest technology they have harnessed for this end.
    If you are still watching Hollywood movies or television of any type you’re a fucking retarded queer.

    1. Having been on this planet for half a century, first of all it is disturbing that in many ways we still are in the 1990s. Is this because we really have painted ourselves in a corner as a society and there isn’t anywhere else to go? It was a dark, ugly, politically-correct era, and still being in it would depress anyone my age.
      Decades are often represented by change, usually moving away from the previous one in some significant way. This is actually because of a reaction against some key feature of the previous decade: it was the often hypocritical and hysterical right-wing mentality (not good conservative mindset) and antics of the 1950s that led to the sex, drugs, and rock `n roll 1960s. The excesses of that decade lessened during the 1970s but certainly the Reagan Era of the 1980s was also a reaction against rampant leftism.
      The problem with the 1990s were the Baby Boomers and the sheer size of that generation. To this day they want to call all the shots, and since as a whole this was defined by the 1960s this is why rampant political correctness is still being pushed: compare it to the 1960s and you’ll see the similarities. Given the fact that this is also an excessively bossy generation (I’ve seen articles discussing “compromise” with Boomer employees causing trouble for Generation X or younger bosses- notice how it was never the other way around?) then they have been, are, and for some time will be effectively in charge. In other words the 1990s was supposed to have been the smaller Generation X’s time, and indeed “Grunge” was a way of doing that, but everything has always been hijacked by Boomers- remember the idiotic “Ebonics” fiasco? It’s quite possible that Generation X may never really have a chance to define society, so even if on the whole we are more conservative it won’t matter, because nobody is listening to us. But we certainly do get blamed for when things go wrong.
      So movies like the one in this article are really just an extension of what has been going on for a long time. The BIGGEST mistake the writer makes is implying that this sort of thing is relatively recent: he is wrong because this has been going on for DECADES. Look at male lead characters from “Three’s Company,” “The Simpsons,” and so many other shows; dumb, harmless, and often the women should lead as they are the only competent ones. It is interesting to note that “Beauty and the Beast” with Ron Perlman had a strong male alpha character but he wasn’t actually human; in fact more and more strong male leads- Optimus Prime, Lion-O, Justin from “The Secret of NIMH,” etc.- were non-humans. Yes there were exceptions (“Voltron” being a fine example), but overall they were “fantasy” characters. This is what made 2015’s “Jurassic World” so unusual: the hero was someone who could have matched the classic male heroes.

  24. Scott Pilgrim is the story of a pedophile nu-male who murders the beta orbiters of an SJW slut to win her love.
    Knives (the asian girl) is underage. Scott’s new love interest has exes and other losers obsessed with her that perpetually orbit her.

    1. I can see the dweeb being pegged by the purple haired nympho. The asian is 17 and he’s 23. Get over it. All the hot HS girls are doing older guys; Cars, money and experience are not to be found with the mouth breather set. I’d say that you are a total cock-blocking beta your own self. Guess being a gentlenerd and waiting till Daddy’s little Whore has turned 25 and fucked everyone at the club, and half the football team is the Right Thing. You don’t even rate sloppy seconds

  25. I wouldn’t left the loyal Asian also for a purpled hair harpy. In my opinion if a girl with comeres hair is a no go and I would not commit to her and only use her as a booty call.

  26. John Doe
    Everything you wrote in your comments is true. I like the James Bond video clips. Whoever down voted you is a dumb fag that never touched a woman in his life. Teach them more about the nature of the western cunts.

  27. Hollywood rarely depicts masculine white men, because the ppl who run Hollywood are Marxists who are attempting to destroy our society. Destroy the masculine white male, and u can ruin America completely.

  28. Men are so bad, so evil SO…feminists want girls to act like boys, and women to act like men.
    No- no contradiction there. No hypocrisy either.

  29. Question for you guys: how much of this kind of crap is just wimpy beta men writing what they know, and how much of it is intentional propoganda? A good comparison would be the movie “Girl, Interrupted,” which is a total bore but also a movie about literally insane women. Why does that even get written? Because most female writers are at least partially insane, so that’s what they know. I don’t think the woman who wrote the book (that inspired the movie) was intentionally trying to get women to act more insane. She’s just so self-centered and unhealthy that she thinks her experience is relevant to everyone else.
    I get that feeling all the time when watching movies and television shows. Situations that so clearly call for violence or at least decisive action are always made worse by indecision or kvetching. Most men in reality won’t really put up with that much shit before they lose it. But you watch something like “Meet the Parents,” a movie that essentially mocks a decent man for 2 hours while he puts up with more and more degrading shit from his crappy girlfriend’s family. The whole time I watched it I was thinking, I have never in my life met a man who would put up with this.

    1. I’d say its a mix, but the majority of it is almost all intentional propaganda. The people who produce movies have certain expectations for what a movie should be, you don’t get money if they don’t like the content behind it – I think its mostly subconsciously done by the director and actors and everyone else involved, but its blatantly conscious propaganda by the studios and producers.

  30. A relationship isn’t going to work if it’s six months of 2nd and 3rd base. Something is not always better than nothing.

  31. Jewish movie with two obviously jewish lead actors.
    Would deluded white people pursue or like Holywood anymore if they knew that the vast majority of famous lead actors are jewish? From Charlie Sheen to Angelina Jolie, if you ain’t a jew you gonna get screwed.

  32. Im still pissed about that film. Scott had a near perfect girlfriend in Knives. She was a few months short of legal, she loved his music and supported his shit band, and even fought for him and with him. Ramona couldn’t even tell her exes to fuck off trying to kill Scott, she plays hot and cold the whole film. Fuck that ending.

  33. I think the author is forgetting we can not expect Scott to pick Knives over Ramona Flowers when we know about his ex girlfriend Envy Adams. He has a thing for good looking indo European women. Yes, minus the weird colored hair Ramona has good facial features. Symbolically Knives can represent the virgin and Ramona the slut. But in Ramona’s defense she is a better choice then Envy Adams.
