Btw, I do reference both the movie and the comic in this video but I'm mostly going to be talking about the comics.

I know he wasn’t actually attracted to her, but a 22 year old dating a 17 year old because he wants to have a little ego boost and then dumping her without any explanation is so brutal. I feel terrible for Knives. Of course no one in this movie/comics is 100% good, but people are too hard on Knives. Also, I feel like she was shown in a more sympathetic light in the movie tbh? Also: idc what the age of consent is, a 22 year old dating a 17 year old high schooler is inappropriate!

My favorite knives moment cut from the movie...she once attacks ramona in the library, and before escaping, throws a knife with a scroll attached to it at her, yelling "Here's something to remember me by!" Ramona easily blocks the knife, confusedly unrolls the scroll, which says simply, "you're fat and i hate you!"

I 100% agree with this analysis, Knives absolutely deserves better. When i first watched Scott Pilgrim, I came away from it shocked about the fact that he was 22, dating a teenager, and there was no in-universe repercussions for that. It immediately turned me off his character and made me sympathise with Knives from the beginning, as I had been in an extremely similar relationship at Knives' age and know the damage that it can do to a person. Thank you so much for making this video and addressing it, it's the first thing i've seen actually talking about how it was an issue haha

I first read the comics and watched the movie as a little baby 11/12 year old who was very much like Knives early on in that I was obsessed with older guys who were in bands or wore alternative clothes and honestly most of my friends were like that too. It's sooooo common in alternative music communities for young, impressionable girls to get swept up in older shitty musician guys' drama and bullshit. Bryan Lee O'Malley probably saw a loooot of it in the alt music scene growing up (I know he was big into Plumtree and other Canadian punk/rock) so Knives and Scott's relationship feels so realistic. I'm not sure what it is about alt music guys and this constant arrested development they have that makes them feel like the only girls they can date have to be literal teenagers but it's there. You see it in so many pop punk bands, the genre is littered with songs about 'evil women who treat men like shit' that are actually about teenage girls who are being preyed upon by men in their 20s. Knives' arc is so special to me, I really feel such a kinship with her. I wish there was some amount of following her through college because it probably would have helped me in my early uni days so much but the story was never focussed on her. I just know she would have gone on to date a few hot women- maybe redheads who play drums.

For me, I believe casting Micheal Cera as Scott was great. If you remember in the movie he earns the power of *self respect* so to earn that power, Scott would have had to have no self respect to begin with. Micheal Cera has the ability to look awkward (even if he isn’t in real life [correct me if I’m wrong]) so I think casting him as Scott was very well done.

I don't think people realize the nuance of Scott’s character. He's not an intentional asshole, he's just inconsiderate and careless. The point of the story is for Scott to realize that just because the Evil Exes are openly jerks doesn't mean he can't be just as bad as them. That's what makes Scott likable as well, he's adorably clueless and detached from responsibility in the way only someone in their early 20s can be, he has no responsibilities. In the comics, a full year passes and it shows a lot of this growth. He gets a job and moves in with Ramona and pushes her to be better, just as Scott does. Knives is not a good fit for Scott, not only because of the age gap but because he's young and naive and thinks he's perfect. She would never push him to be better, and he would always end up treating her horribly, it would be a neglectful relationship. Ramona’s baggage forces Scott to reflect on how poorly he's treated his partners, and forces him to realize that he's sheltering himself from a lot of improvement by refusing to listen to his exes and accept that he handled things poorly. I hope this is what people are taking away from the story, not just that Scott is an asshole and that Ramona is hot. That they are two dysfunctional people who push each other to be better because of their flaws, and only when they can accept that they aren't paragons of virtue they can become better. The point is that you have to choose to be better and acknowledge that you did, not just demonize people. That's the joke of the evil exes. That they are what happens when you demonize your ex-partners so much that they just embrace it and become mutual enemies. Media literacy is dead lol.

One thing being overlooked here though: Knives doesn't hesitate for a second to manipulate Young Neil into a one-sided relationship with her that she had no sincere intentions about. We forgive her because she's young and going through some difficult new feelings, and because Neil is a wet sack of potatoes, but it's the same thing Scott was doing. Both were rebounding, both entered a fake relationship to fulfill needs, both were good enough not to cross any lines that would have made their behavior unforgivable, but neither cared that they were dooming the other person to a breakup. We rightly hold Scott to a higher standard of course. And he does appear to be aware that this relationship isn't normal or healthy.

Which I think is okay, characters don't have to be likeable. It was still a compelling movie when I saw a creep find his niche and develop power, in spite of it making his worse qualities more damaging

As much as it was clear in the beginning that Scott and Knives didn't have a future, I felt the same way about Scott and Ramona at the end. I never got the happy, Hollywood ending feels when they walk together through the door at the end. Even with Gideon's control defeated and Scott having gone through personal growth during the final battle, I always felt that Scott and Ramona were maybe going to date for a few months and then head their own separate ways. They just never seemed really right for each other. Scott was more in love with the idea of Ramona than Ramona as a person and Ramona still has some stuff to work through before she let's someone get close. It's not a bad ending per se, just not an overly cheery one. I get that same very feeling at the conclusion of another coming of age movie, American Graffiti. With American Graffiti, you get character prologues, which aren't all positive, but even without them, it's not a clean, optimistic ending, but I think it's a realistic ending.

I totally agree with everything, & i feel like the only reason he's dating someone who is underage is to explore the character archetype of 'unlikable hero you still kind of like sometimes but is a shithead'. I mean there's a lot to explore when you pair two characters like that together, innocent vs not, interest vs disinterest, i feel like most people have been in a sort of relationship where they've either dated someone they weren't that interested in or viceversa. There's a lot of awkwardness & beating-around-the-bush that adds to the complication & dynamics to characters.

She does deserve better, Scott should've told her about Ramona and ended it there. It might've hurt but it would have hurt a lot less than being cheated on. Also remember at the end of the movie where there all walking out and then Knives tells Scott that his hair is getting shaggy, that was the cutest scene in the movie for me, because it seemed like they were a thing again. I just don't like Ramona that much as a character she acts so dead all the time. So I like Knives and Scott. I think Knives is the best character morally speaking. She didn't really do anything wrong tbh. But it's hard to think about what the story would be like without her, because her being there purposefully created a lot of conflict and controversy.

Personally I dont think Scott and Knvies loved each other when they were together. Scott wanted someone easy and fun, and Knives look up to him for being older and in a band and "cool" I kind of felt that Scott dated Knives cause he felt secure and she wouldn't dump him like Envy did. There is not really any love between them, and i feel both characters are super relatable to 2 different demographics which also might be the reason they made her 17. Young love dont last, your first relationship with a someone never works out and being dumpes for the first time also completely breaks you. The other demographic are people like Scott who find a much younger partner because they might not be ready for the responsibilities of adulthood. It is more fun to play video games at the arcade and not having a care in the world than to deal with stuff like your partner might have exes that they still have feelings for.

I just watched the movie for the first time and I cried when he broke up with her.

I love this movie, the setting, the style, the humor, but something I never managed to like is both Scott and Ramona. Scott's motivation and pretty much the thing that drives the plot is Scott wants to date Ramona, that's it. I'd guess it's different in the comic, but I feel the movie kind of failed at making us care about Ramona, Scott thinks she's cute, that's pretty much it. It also didn't help that (personal opinion) the actress playing Knives is WAY more attractive than the actress playing Ramona, so pretty much building the entire movie over the fact Scott tough she was cute when he spotted her and he stalked her while she's didnt care about him and then they have some tea. Not only I cant empathize with Scott wanting to be with Ramona, I can't see either why Ramona would ever want to be with Scott. I like that movie, the randomness and never explained super powers, the video game style, but the main characters motivations are weak and rushed. #teamknives

No mention of when she dated Young Neil?

I've always been a fan a Knives. She became a cool badass woman and she does not need Scott. Scott did not deserve her or Romona.

I always see a lot of people saying Scott should have stayed with knives but that’s not the point And I like how this video actually addresses that Scott should have never dated knives in the first place, he only dated her because it was simple and easy, he did right to make the decision to break up with her, but it’s just the way he did it, and how he also cheated on her that make his actions scummy. A good way of representing this is like if someone gave you a free sandwich, you accept it but then you see a cheesecake that you truly want, but you have to buy it. The right thing to do would be to give the sandwich back to the person that gave it to you or give it to someone else so the food is not wasted, then buy the cheesecake. What Scott did was basically eat the cheesecake and then throw away the sandwich, wasting the free food

the part I like best about scott pilgrim and this part of it really, is that him dating knives is portrayed as a completely bad thing. not justified whatsoever and only adds to the pile of his shitty traits. makes his arc to accepting his mistakes and trying to grow with ramona near the end really land well for me.

Bryan Lee O'Malley has that he would be interested in going back to the Scott Pilgrim world. So maybe, hopefully, its a side story of Knives going into college or Scott and Ramona traveling around together.....OR STEPHEN AND JOSEPH.....! The possibilities are endless.

Thing about Scott Pilgrim and Ramona is that their terrible people who deserve eachother. Knives deserved a lot better of a guy than Scott to date in her life.
