Rating Scott Pilgrim Movie Outfits

By Braeden Gourley

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Not by any means a spectacular movie for its time. I am still not positive on the opinion of others, but it is admittedly very funny and creative. Now tossing aside the animated series in recent years, I will be rating the famous celebrities ridiculous outfits that they appeared to fit into nicely. 

First up . . . 

Scott Pilgrim = 6/10

It’s nothing too special, but it fits his relaxed character perfectly. It’s most definitely decently comfy and functional for all of the fights he engages in (besides the jeans), but it isn’t extraordinary. However, it is the protagonist, and most guys dress similarly anyway. 

Knives Chau = 4/10

It is a harsh rating, but this outfit does not serve. The jacket is probably uncomfortable, not to mention she is wearing a school uniform under it. ALSO, why is she wearing a skirt in Canada? I don’t care what her private school rules demand. That is wrong. However, she is still amazing <3

Kim Pine = 5/10

Great character overall and she deserves every ounce of appreciation, but I dislike this one. The blue and black striped shirt underneath the orange? It does not give fashion expert, but I am also not an expert. The track jacket is a nice addition and I can see it fitting in well with a skirt or another kind of shorts, so it’s something nice in between.

Wallace Wells = 7/10

He is nonchalant, and it shows. It’s relatively simple, but the collar brings out a worthy bit of fancy shmancy representation. Therefore, it serves a purpose. 

Envy Adams = baddie/diva/icon/10

Why in the world did they give her such a glorious outfit? There was no reason to, but she ate and she walked and she made my day while watching this movie. The pattern is everything and the touch of jewelry is all things necessary. The collars aren’t too wide and they provide a bit of flare for her dazzling charm. It’s A-mazinggg!

Gideon Graves = 10/10

It is rated at the peak. The colors blend effortlessly with the entire costume, in close resemblance to the one above. His intelligent nature matches well with his clothing taste, and he deserves head turns from all over. 

Matthew Patel = -2000/10

BURN IT—sorry, I don’t know what came over me. Oh, yes I do. IT. NEEDS. TO. DISAPPEAR. This cannot be the only image of him in my head. The evil charlie brown knock-off shirt isn’t anywhere close to matching. Why does he need to collars?! Can he even pop one?! The pocket amount is also insane and he appears to me as a troubled kid on a safari. I never want this recreated. It is generally rated as it should be. Do not defend him.

Julie Powers = 8/10

Above average, but not very comfortable. I admire the tiny attention to jewelry detail, and the simplicity converts the laced shirt, buttons, and skirt to something less out there or revealing. It is a decent going out outfit and it appeals to fashion sense. Yay.

Lucas Lee = badboy/10

Oh dear. This one is out there. The facial features (ahem, eyebrows) do not make it any better, but they do not make it any worse either. The leather jacket is the main component working here for me, but the belt buckle seems to make up some of the important structure. The zippers aren’t too abundant and it looks like genuine leather, which is a good little extra point for style and credibility.

Roxy Richter = 3/10

Nothing about this is “undercover” for a ninja-clad character. The snow boots, okay, I can understand. She dwells in the snow. But the tights barely protect her skin, not to mention they’re ripped, and that belt looks double sharp. Maybe that’s because it’s also a SWORD! That’s not where weapons go, girl! Anyways, I don’t know why there’s an extra belt above, or why the jacket around her neck is smaller than a bikini top. I won’t judge . . . but I know her own eyes would if they could look down at her face. You ain’t Rambo.

Todd Ingram = 1/10

I just know that as soon as he sits down, he stands back up with mysterious stains all over. The white cannot be trusted . . . as in clothing . . .

Katayanagi Twins = 2/10

Huh. That’s funny, I could have sworn I already ranked the one on the right. And maybe the one on the left too. Who is who again? I already said the stripes weren’t working for me, and the white is aggravating. Uh uh, partner.

Young Neil = 6/10

Again, he’s a chill guy. I think this outfit has got to be comfortable, and he’s got his love for video games. No sense in too much effort. It is okay.

Stephen Stills = southernnights/10

Not too shabby, but no need to use every button in existence.

Okay, now I had to save the best for last, so sorry for the tiresome wait.

Ramona Flowers = flawless/10

RAHHH so much joy. Her hair changes colors every week and magically never gets damaged. The outfits may be weird and wacky, but they lighten up her tough personality AND they happen to make sense. A hoodie under a jacket is respectable, but not a collared shirt under one. This is good. Very good.

Alright, thank you for tuning in for some ratings if readers are still interested. Personally, ratings and scorings and gradings aren’t at all necessary and these are not a good reflection of the public. However . . . I’m writing this, so hah. Ciao, bye.
