Overview
As bass guitarist for a garage-rock band, Scott Pilgrim has never had trouble getting a girlfriend; usually, the problem is getting rid of them. But when Ramona Flowers skates into his heart, he finds she has the most troublesome baggage of all: an army of ex-boyfriends who will stop at nothing to eliminate him from her list of suitors.

2024 remastered Universal 4K Blu-ray
20th Anniversary UHDs: better than the original 2019 4K Blu-ray, but there are a few shots with heavy DNR that look worse than the old 4K Blu-ray. The 2024 France StudioCanal 4K Blu-ray has a better encode than the 2024 Universal 4K Blu-ray (but forced France subs)

There is a newer 4K restoration by L’Immagine Ritrovata, which should be of better scan quality. The 4K restoration used on all current 4K disc releases stems from a low-quality Cintel scanner. The newer restoration has yet to be released on home video.
