Who do you think is the most evil ex?
Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are reacting to Scott Pilgrim vs. the World… with a twist. They’re reacting to Ramona’s evil exes and ranking them from least worst to most worst. But Alan’s got a twist on the twist! And then Jono comes up with another twist!? As with every Edgar Wright film, they giddily react to the stylized and witty filmmaking. Jonathan explains what makes some of the exes so evil, and he talks about what’s going on with Scott.

I feel for Roxy. Finding out you were only considered “a phase” and meant nothing must crush you. And in the anime adaptation it really shows how hurt she was from Romana leaving her

I can’t comprehend how hard that would be and how much that would hurt. Growing up is realizing that the good guys in this movie aren’t great. Also surprised that they didn’t mention Roxy being Katara!

@trinaq Месяц назад

I totally felt empathy for Roxy myself. Though I identify as Bi myself, it must have been heartbreaking for Roxy to have been treated as a "phase", as if their relationship didn't matter. It seemed like she was more invested in the relationship than Ramona was.

@charleston1789 Месяц назад

I’ve been that ‘phase’ for a few people - and yeah. It’s pretty crushing, especially when you’re young

@bombomos Месяц назад

I mean it is what it is. If someone is not attracted to your sex. They are not attracted to your sex. Think of it this way. Would it be any different if a Roxy was a man? Then Ramona found out she was lesbian so she left him?? Would that crash the man? Sure. Would it be more socially acceptable cuz gay is more socially acceptable today? Yes Would it have been more socially acceptable in the early 20s? No Just cuz it's a woman or a man, straight or gay doesn't matter. Break ups suck and the reasoning for them varies. No reason to say Ramona should go against her own feelings to stay with someone she doesn't love. Just so Roxy can be happy.

She doesn't have as many stereotypical characteristics of a MPDG, but she serves the function of driving the plot and motivating the male protagonist's development without getting much character growth of her own (at least in the movie).

Finally settled down, but with an abuser that acted like he couldn't stand me. I was so obsessed and we stayed together for 10 years. After that, when I finally got some self respect, I left.

@Ragdoll161 Месяц назад

@@MrEzuma Maybe, but the phrase "just a phase" implies that there was really no value in it. Life is a series of phases, always, and they always mean something to who you are. But it's essentially like being told "I never really loved you, I wasn't capable of loving you, and eveytime I said I did was a lie" Which can CRUSH your trust and self confidence. Especially in the queer community where so many people fight and struggle to find acceptance and love and just people who understand them without mocking them

@MrNicoJac Месяц назад

@@Ragdoll161 I disagree that being a phase means it held no value or love. I've had many phases in life (some romantic, some like school or friends). I've also been those phases for lots of people. At the end of the day, I see it as them and me teaching the other something about their/my true self - or at least the person we'd like to become. If your love ends up being a building block for someone else's cathedral, it still hurts that they didn't build it with/for you, obviously. But over time I've come to see that the life they wanted to live is not the one I wanted to. And so, even though the rejection hurts, I'm also glad I got to live in my own cathedral. And if some of my masonry ended up featured in some (but not all!) elements of theirs, then even though I was a phase for them and even though it hurts, it still was not for nothing. You can be a meaningful phase, and if you helped the other person discover who they are/want to be, then there is also a kind of tragic beauty to be found in that... Cheers :)

@douglaswolfen7820 Месяц назад

I would rate Roxie Richter as the "least evil" evil ex. From what I remember, she at least had something of a legitimate grievance: she was heartbroken by basically being tokenized by Ramona "having a phase" (or however they couch it in the movie). Every other ex is just being a little punk over what is ancient history. (edit: Okay, I could have just waited a few minutes for them to get to it. :D )

@lttrbox Месяц назад

I agree so much with this. Roxy doesn't count as an ex - or really a person - in this movie, just a punchline, which you can see from Scott's only reaction being getting horny and verifying: "You had a sexy face?" And then, Ramona has to fight her, because again; Roxy doesn't count as a real ex in this movie, or a real person, so this is not Scott's battle, it's hers. I hate this scene and this movie so much for this biphobia and I'm honestly disappointed that it didn't get called out in the video.

@MistaZULE Месяц назад

@@lttrbox she is a real character, Scott can't fight her because he doesn't want to fight a girl. It's more mysoginistic than biphobic. It's quite shitty by today's standards and by no means am I defending that scene, but it doesn't detract from my love of the film. Also want to point out that Roxy has more screen time than Matthew Patel who's just pirate looking song n dance guy, or the Katayanagi twins who are just the Japanese DJ twins. Those two guys aren't even characters. She has a real motive for wanting to join the league as she was straight up used by Ramona to experiment with her sexuality. If anything Ramona is the evil ex for Roxy and won't even admit what she did was wrong.

@Axiniana Месяц назад

Knives is the absolute best character in the movie, even Wallace is a honorary second place! She has a beautiful personality and is very mature, despite being a literal teen. Love her so much. That being said, she does have her own flaws, like everyone else here, and this is awesome too. When she started dating Young Neil to get back on Scott? Not exactly the right thing to do, but a very teenager thing to do. And she really did say some nasty things to Ramona while still being sure that Ramona was the one who made Scott dump her. But again, she stopped being angry at her the moment she saw the situation. A wonderful girl (and a wonderful character), 12/10.

I once wrote a paper about how the Scott Pilgrim comic series presented a gendered subversion of Campbell’s Hero’s Journey because of Knives Chao. She is the one who goes through the journey with the indie rock scene being her “other world”, but the story focuses on the monsters. It’s in a way, a lesson about how real human flaws aren’t diagnosable through narrative structures, but we can use stories to contextualize our growth and actions.

The thing that sets Scott apart from Rimona’s Ex’s, is that after he got over the relationship, he confronts what makes him an immature guy. He eventually grows from the relationship ending, rather than the Ex’s dwelling on the relationship and never growing. (At least in the original comic, the movie doesn’t go through that.)

Then I watched it as a grown adult that finally could understand the mess that makes us human and realized they are both jerks. And they deserve each other and, as long as they are trying to get a better version of themselves, it’s ok

Since youve done this, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look at the sequel show, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. It shifts the framing from Scott to Ramona, and it does such an incredible job going into the trauma and relationships between her and the exes.

@GamerCalli Месяц назад

One of the best things about the anime ( Scott Pilgrim Takes Off on Netflix) is how it not only shows how Ramona isn't a good person (her main issue is running away from her problems which is what causes her to dump all those people) but it shows that without Scott, every single character in the story has a marked improvement in their lives.

It turned out to be very effective, never said those words again.

Is really good to see this video specially today. Today I noticed I hurt people. I talked with someone I've hurt last year and noticed my motivations to act how I acted with this person, making me as the protagonist of that story such like Scott did, don't justify what I did. I couldn't even lunch correctly when the feeling of regret and guilt stucked in my throat. And I don't know how I couldn't remember about all Scott Pilgrim's franchise (Manga, Movie and Anime) that I love so much and the meaning behind It. You guys are amazing and I'm grateful you've created this channel and help people see the hidden things in movies. I'm still a bit frustrated and also still accepting that I did something wrong instead of being the protagonist of the story, but this makes me a bit lighter. Thank you guys.

@stephenbradford8524 Месяц назад

Scott Pilgrim is based on a comics series by Bryan Lee O'Malley. While the comics are great, I get the impression that O'Malley realizes part way through writing that Scott is actually kind of a piece of crap. Maybe he knew that from the beginning, but it feels like a retcon. Either way, every subsequent volume (not to mention adaptation) of Scott Pilgrim goes out of its way to highlight that Scott ain't that good a guy. And it's brilliant.

@strawberrys0da714 Месяц назад

I believe Bryan Lee O'Malley has stated in the past that Scott was never meant to be a hero, and that if he were to write it again he would do more to make that clear (which is what he did with Scott Pilgrim Takes Off). Scott being kind of a manipulative dick and learning how to be better is the main point of the series.

@sydney9011 Месяц назад

One thing that has always bothered me about discourse surrounding this comic/movie/show is that people try to just say "[Character] is a bad person because they did [awful thing]" when the WHOLE POINT of this media, TO ME is a show of how nobody is perfect, everyone fucks up when their young, but like Scott at the end, they can face themselves, face their demons and work towards making changes for the better. Like yeah, Scott is a piece of shit, but who isn't when they're 23? I feel like there's so much nuance you have to approach this media with when discussing it, Bryan Lee O'Malley NEVER wanted us to believe that Scott was a good person. Despite all the fantasy, these characters feel real because they're flawed. I'm by no means excusing their bad behavior but what I'm saying is, they were never meant to be portrayals of morality.

There's actually an alternate ending where Scott leaves with Knives and Ramona goes through the door alone. They still start healing, with both apologising for the way they acted to the other, they just decide it's healthier for them to be apart instead of together, which might be just as valid of a take as them helping each other to be better.

@runningthemeta5570 Месяц назад

Hell yeah! My favorite movie’s being covered.

@arkadye Месяц назад

Especially in the books, but the biggest theme for me was about handling your past unhealthy ways. Scott just denies it ever happened (although Gideon did interfere with that in the last book, which I didn't like); Ramona runs away from the past; Gideon tries to hold and entrap it. All the exes represent some aspect of the relationship that's difficult (and often some unresolved problem from Ramona's past). And Scott - for all his faults - fights for Ramona and the relationship, and has to improve himself in the process. My absolute favourite moment in the books is when Ramona stands up and fights, not for herself, but for Scott. It's not subtle with the subtext. "Ramona earned the Power of Love [an awesome sword that also appears in the film]. The power of love has healed her wounds".

@TheHedgehogGiraffe Месяц назад

I just want to say this on the most recent video, but I've been watching Cinema Therapy for about a year and a half now; and I've always appreciated Jono and Alan's candor when talking about their own personal struggles. Not in a parasocial way, but these are two men who - by societal standards - have everything going for them. Stability, family, a passion project. And yet they are still open about the struggles they do and have had. As someone in Gen Z, it's so easy to feel like we're going to be crushed under the weight of everything. But it eases some of my anxiety when Jono and Alan are able to say, "Sometimes things suck. They sucked for us, but we got through it. We're still getting through it. And it's hard, but it gets easier over time." I just really appreciate the authenticity and transparency that this channel operates with.

Something I like from the movie is that, while it's ostensibly about Scott confronting Ramona's exes and beating them up, in the process we also get some closure with Scott's exes - Kim Pine is still a part of Scott's life, and gets an apology by the end. Natalie "Envy" Adams is revealed to be a bitch now (and possibly then) but hints at a softer side while leaving. Knives Chau is too cool for Scott anyway, and Ramona is at least working on her habit of ditching relationships.

unrelated to this video, I just casually drop a suggestion of a non-ghibli anime movie (and even if for once I'm early, I'm still totally aware that you must get thousands of those and I won't stand a chance as just a simple youtube commentor and not even patreon etc. I still do once more) The award winning fantasy drama " *Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms* ". Not only is the art style very beautiful, but mostly it is a really thought provoking tale about motherhood, love and more. I'm sure you would like it. And bawl your eyes out. It's beautifully sad.
