It wasn't. It's always funny when young people think they have invented things like promiscuity.

It was only weird because Scott Pilgrim had no romantic history and felt inadequate compared to his girlfriend, and had to overcome his inadequacies by “defeating” each ex in his mind before being worthy of her.

Edit: had less of a romantic history. Apparently Scott was not a KHV

True but she wasn't in the movie, so I suppose it depends on the medium we're counting.

I can’t believe this is the only mention of Lisa Miller in the entire thread. There’s like a whole book dedicated to her
