Scott Pilgrim vs The World is in the midst of shooting, for a 2010 release. Most of the Cloudherders are fans of the little indie comic, so we’re understandably trepidatious about how film is going to mangle our fun.

However, as previously discussed on the blog, the film is in pretty good hands: Edgar Wright, the director of Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead is at the helm. He’s been posting little vids on the movie’s official site, and above is one of the most interesting.  Author Bryan Lee O’Malley has included meticulously drawn site-specific streets, stores and homes from Toronto in the comic, and this 3 minute video demonstrates how the film is shooting on location at some of those exact places. The care with which these locations are being chosen and shot makes me breathe a huge sigh of relief: maybe we can start to uncross our fingers?
