Of all the comic books that have been optioned into movies, few have done so more successfully than Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World . The film is a refreshing departure from the capes and cowls crew and an incredibly enjoyable romantic adventure comedy.

Next month marks the 10 Year Anniversary of the film’s theatrical release.

So in order to help celebrate this incredible milestone, check out these 10+ Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World behind the scenes secrets that fans didn’t know!

Creator Bryan Lee O’Malley named the character Scott Pilgrim after a song.

The track was written by an old Canadian pop-punk band called Plumtree. If you watch carefully, you can see Scott wearing one of the band’s t-shirts in the film.

Their song is also included on the soundtrack !

Jason Schwartzman was always goofing around in-between takes.

“There are normally people who crack up – Jason Schwartzman doesn’t crack up a lot, but he does goof around in between takes,” Wright admitted during an interview. He credits Jason’s positivity and energy for helping the crew pull through the final phase of filming.

Scott plays one pricey bass guitar.

In the film, Scott plays a Rickenbacker 4003 series bass.

These guitars, beautiful as they are, can get expensive very quickly. Even an entry-level model will run you around $2500 CAD and that’s without any customization.

Bryan Lee O’Malley makes a cameo appearance in the film!

Both he and his wife, Hope Larson , can be spotted in the crowd right after Sex Bob-Omb comes off stage.

It’s not a Stan Lee caliber cameo but it’s not bad, especially for fans of the graphic novel!

Ramona’s phone number is the real deal…sort of.

Her number in the film is 212-664-7665 . In actuality, this is a real number that’s owned by Universal Studios. It has appeared in several different films over the years to help add an element of realness.

Otherwise, films are forced to use the standard “555” area code.

Scott’s Puck-Man story that he tells Ramona in the film is actually true!

Sounds fake, I know. Apparently, the American subsidiary company was concerned that vandals might be tempted to turn a ‘P’ into an ‘F’!

Therefore, the name (and spelling) was changed to Pac-Man.

Bill Hader is The Voice!

Hader plays the role of the narrator , essentially replacing the written text and subtitles of the comics.

Bill does all of the voice work, even during the Ninja Ninja Revolution scene! How wild is that?!

Brandon Routh is a serious gamer in real life.

According to Brandon, he’s poured countless hours into the popular RPG World of Warcraft. “I’m kind of a gamer ,” he admits.

I’m sure Brandon is “kind of” a gamer in the same way that I “kind of” enjoy chocolate cake.

Scott doesn’t end up with Ramona in the books!

It’s Knives Chau who ultimately wins his heart in the end of the graphic novel series. I don’t know about you but I kind of like the original ending better.

What do you think?

There’s *This Is Spinal Tap* reference you may have missed.

It happens when Scott fights the twins, the 5th and 6th of Ramona’s evil exes. During the attack, the pair turn their volume up to the Japanese character for 11.

In the film This Is Spinal Tap , the band’s amplifiers have all been customized to go to 11.

Director Edgar Wright wanted Michael Cera right from the beginning.

“Michael was my first and only choice for the role,” Wright said during an interview.

He also admitted that during his initial development stages for the film, he was watching a lot of Arrested Development .

Mary Elizabeth Winstead has a lot in common with Ramona.

Universal Pictures

“She is from the same area as Ramona , which is spooky and I didn’t know at the time. Ramona, in the books, is from North Carolina and so is Mary Winstead,” Wright said during an interview.

Beck wrote an entire album’s worth of songs for the film.

All of the songs that you hear performed in the film are written by actual bands and musicians. The majority of which were penned by Beck .

If you check the credits in the film or soundtrack, you’ll see his name plastered all over.

The actors were not allowed to blink on-camera.

Image credit: Universal Pictures
Universal Pictures

That sounds insane, right? Apparently it was something that Wright insisted on in order to help create more of a manga feel.

My eyes are watering just at the thought of it.

Each one of Ramona’s exes has a visual representation tied to their number.

Take Matthew, for example, he has a single chevron on his jacket sleeve. Scott and Roxy due battle in a club aptly named “4”. Heck, Todd even has a giant #3 emblazoned on his chest.

You get the point, they’re not hard to spot.
