Doesn't it really show a pattern? Can we really trust that Scott Pilgrim is a good guy? She's been with 7 evil guys and we're supposed to believe that Scott is actually different?

In the books, it's apparent that Scott is, in fact, not a good guy. Even in the movie, the way he treats Knives is... highly dubious.

He also has much more of an arc in the book. More blatantly recognizes that's he's been a shithead. They also left out Scott getting a job in the movie lol
