Part three of a multiplayer playthrough of Scott Pilgrim vs the World, based on the comics by Bryan Lee O'Malley and movie by Universal Studios, by Ubisoft for the XBox 360. Scott Pilgrim (MacDaddyNook), Kim Pine (SunBurntKen) and Ramona Flowers (Duck) take on the world to defeat the League of Evil Exes.

Stage 2 takes place at Casa Loma where a film starring Ramona's second evil ex-boyfriend, Lucas Lee, is being filmed. Players must fight their way through various movie sets as they make their way to Lee.

Some of the most annoying enemy types in the game are introduced in this level. For starters, there are the paparazzi who stun players with their camera flashes, which can be troublesome during some of the timed portions of the level. Balding men in fire-breathing dinosaur costumes also attempt to burn players and will also try to ram them when knocked onto the floor. Finally, there's my personal vote for the most annoying enemy in the game, the aliens, which like to hide away from players and shoot them with their electrical guns.

Stage 2 is interesting as it has a few gimmicks for progression. At a couple of sections, players must destroy either a bomb or car within a given time limit (with the paparazzi interfering for added challenge). During the temple section of the level, keys will be laid out in the level and must be carried to a door further down the room; the key can be used as a weapon when carried but also limits the attacks the player holding it can use. Also periodically during the level, a director will roll the camera and film players fending off waves of enemies adding an interesting thematic spin on the "beat them all up before moving forward" method of the beat 'em up games.

At the end of the level, players will face off against Lucas Lee. For the most part, he's not too much of a threat although his stunt team will occasionally attack players on skateboards. When a skateboarding enemy is defeated, the board can be used as a weapon by players as well as Lee. When Lee has the skateboard, paparazzi will come into play in place of the stunt team. After sustaining enough damage, Lee will attempt a rail grind that will ultimately bring about his undoing.
