Winner: Mary Elizabeth Winstead. For reasons we still don’t understand, everyone ignored Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. So take our word for it: Winstead was great. You can look forward to ignoring our recommendation you see her next year in The Thing.

Finally! "Scott Pilgrim" Trailer Packs a Punch
The wait is over as director Edgar Wright's film version of "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World," starring Michael Cera, makes its innernutz debut and it does not disappoint.
Starring Michael Cera, this comic-book adaptation from director Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) tells the story of a young man who must defeat his his new love's seven evil ex-boyfriends if he wants to keep her.
It's been a tough year for Winstead, who was poised for global super-stardom before "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" was inexplicably ignored last summer by audiences and "The Thing" got pushed at least six months for reshoots.
"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," being directed by Timur Bekmambetov ("Wanted"), stars Walker as Lincoln, Dominic Cooper as his mentor Henry Sturges and Anthony Mackie. Tim Burton, who bought the rights to the book by Seth Graham Smith's after seeing the trailer, is producing.
We feel badly for McLeavy, but, hey, more Liz Winstead.
