Synopsis: The Scott Pilgrim film adaptation did not have a straightforward production history. It was written and filmed while the final volume of the original comic book series, Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour, had not yet been released; and a substantial amount of the movie had to be cut or reshot due to the MPAA® rating rules changing during production. These changes meant that, for example, characters would not be allowed to smoke on-screen (leading to a much shorter, reshot first date, in which there is unfortunately less chemistry between the leads), and certain words had to be bleeped out or scenes cut entirely to remove them. Many others were simply cut for time. While the altered ending that also resulted from these reshoots is more faithful to the comic book and more true to the characters, many of the other changes appear to be driven less by the filmmakers’ creative vision and more by the various externalities of the movie industry.
