When it was announced that Edgar Wright would be writing and directing Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World, a collective sigh of relief could be heard throughout the land.For fans of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s comic book about a Toronto bassist-scenester who must defeat his girlfriend’s seven “evil exes”, there was no better choice than Wright, the man who gave Spaced its idiosyncratic visual style, the zombie brilliance of Shaun of the Dead, and the high-octane send-up Hot Fuzz. Special guest Joe Cornish (of Adam & Joe fame and taking a break from his own foray into film, Attack the Block) will host what is certain to be an extremely entertaining evening, taking a look at Edgar’s work, old and new.
