Plot Summary

Scott Pilgrim’s life is so awesome. He’s 23 years old, in a rock band, “between jobs,” and dating a cute high school girl. Every thing’s fantastic until a seriously mind-blowing, dangerously fashionable, roller blading delivery girl named Ramona Flores starts cruising through his dreams and sailing by him at parties. But the path to Ms. Flowers isn’t covered in rose petals. Ramona’s seven evil ex-boyfriends stand in the way between Scott and true happiness. Can Scott beat the bad guys and get the girl without turning his precious little life upside-down?

The fim is based on the Oni Press graphic novel Scott Pilgrim Volume 1: Scott Pilgrims Precious Little Life, written by Bryan Lee O’Malley.

After three days of starving, Mr.Fox and his children dig a tunnel to Boggis’ chicken house number one, and steal a few chickens. They also raid Bunce’s storehouse and Bean’s underground cellar of apple cider. They invite everyone to a feast made from the loot and decide never to go above ground anymore.
