I loved the film as a teen, having not read the comics. I absorbed that fucking movie without an ounce of critical self-reflection. Scott was a loser, but in a cool samurai sword way.
The film made me seek out the comics.
I instantly fell out of love with the movie. The comics recognise that Scott is a dropkick. It treats Ramona like a character. It has arcs for the cast that isn’t just “he learns to say I love you”.
The film is visually entertaining, but man it feels shallow by comparison.
