I like that he had to look up D.B Cooper to know whether or not it was himself.

I've actually really been looking forward to this AMA.

I absolutely love Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and it's one of the only (possibly the only) movies I've ever seen three times in the theatre, and each of the three times I saw it, the theatre was totally packed. Everyone I know that's seen it absolutely loves it, the critics seemed to love it, and it was quite heavily advertised for quite a while leading up to the release. When I saw that the movie earned back less than its budget, I was shocked. To be fair, I was living in Toronto at the time when it came out, so it was a big deal there at least. I guess not so much elsewhere.

On to the real question, what reason(s) do you think there could be for why the movie did so poorly at the box office? I can't recall a movie with such great reviews and strong marketing, yet such low ticket sales. Most "bombs" usually have either poor reviews or an insufficient marketing campaign.

Well, everyone who saw Scott Pilgrim knows you could totally take Stallone.
