I've Liked You for a Thousand Years...






Princess Melawesome had some work-related stuff to do in Toronto so I went with her. While we were there we got to search for Scott Pilgrim locations! We did not have a lot of time to search for them, but we found all of them that I wanted to see.

For the rest of this post I will add a picture of the location from the comics, then one from the movie, and finally one that I or or Princess Melawesome took. All pics are either from a Google Image search or taken by us.

Let's start with food.

We were very happy to get some pizza from Pizza Pizza!





Here Knives and Scott are eating Pizza Pizza and we can see Pizza Pizza behind them.





Eating at Pizza Pizza in the movie.









We ate at the Pizza Pizza near our hotel. It wasn't the one from the comic or the movie, but it was delicious. I wish I was eating Pizza Pizza right now.

And then there's Second Cup.






Julie and Stacey work at Second Cup in the comic.





Here's April, I mean Julie working at Second Cup in the movie.


Ramona and Scott holding Second Cup cups in the movie.





Again, near our hotel. Not the actual Second Cup from comic or movie.


I wish I had a Second Cup in my house and I could get coffee there every morning.

Next up is the library where Scott first sees Ramona.

















Our library steps pic was snapped quick by Princess Melawesome so as to not get shushed by the librarians.

We drove by Honest Ed's and Sonic Boom Records, but did not have time to go inside.





I think it is only shown in the background in the movie.





Here are more pics taken by Princess Melawesome. I was driving.













Sonic Boom Records, where Scott and Knives broke up.











I was very happy to stumble across both places.





 Casa Loma!!!!



















It's beautiful!










And the Baldwin Steps! Where Lucas Lee did a grind thingy!









Then he explodes!





Lucas was right. Those rails are garbage. They have lots of knobs and would be impossible to do a grind thingy on for very long!






Oh look! Coins!











And the final location! Hillcrest Park! Where Scott and Romona had their first date which was "an unmitigated disaster!"























































And that's all the locations we visited! 

It was fun, but fast trip. We saw all of the locations that I wanted to see. Well... most of them. We didn't visit any of the clubs or houses because we didn't want to bother anybody. We took the pictures quickly and moved on to the next place! Maybe we'll visit again sometime when it's warmer and find some of the other locations.

And now for some bonus stuff!

1-ups!
















I got mine, not in Toronto, but in Indianapolis whilst running on the canal!

And that's it! Thanks for reading!
