As part of a promotional event for the upcoming DVD and Blu-Ray release of Scott Pilgrim Versus The World, Pilgrim fan Guillermo del Toro sat down with director Edgar Wright, creator Bryan Lee O’Malley and actor Michael Cera yesterday to discuss the movie, its influences and why comic book movies can be less serious. These YouTube clips are enough to make me wish I’d been in LA to see the whole thing:

Also: whoever has the movie rights to Flash Gordon? Convince del Toro and Wright to team up for a new version. You know it makes sense.
