Vegetarian Star

A straight man, a gay man and a vegan nurse get together for a CBS television series…You fill in the punchline.

Partners is a new show set to debut in the fall starring Joe (David Krumholtz), an accomplished architect and his gay co-worker, Louis (Michael Urie), who’s “bromance” is tested when Wyatt (Brandon Routh) and Louis get engaged.

Routh is playing another vegan, but instead of using evil powers to destroy Ramona’s boyfriend in Scott Pilgrim, he’s a nurse.

Will he be the one to make no-chicken chicken soup for the gang when they fall ill after one overtime shift too many?

Brandon Routh may have played a vegan with superpowers in the Scott Pilgrim movie, but a team of researchers from both the FDA and several universities have discovered people eating vegan diets may indeed gain abilities that their meat-eating peers lack.

These newly discovered abilities are in addition to the health benefits a vegan diet bestows, which the USDA has recently recognized as a healthy option in its nutrition guide.

Brandon Routh plays a vegan with telekinesis powers in Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, as it sure sounds like this guy has some super vegan cooking powers in real life.

According to an interview with Maxim, Routh has developed an egg and dairy allergy over the years, so he’s learned to modify one of his favorite foods and sometimes makes vegan pancakes.

Maxim: So you like pancakes?
Routh: I love pancakes. Always have. When I was grow­ing up back in Iowa, we used to have breakfast for dinner. It was the one thing my dad was good at doing, so if Mom was busy he’d make us pancakes.

Routh: I’ve actually gotten a taste for vegan pancakes. I think the vegan ones I make are as good or better than the ones with eggs, butter, and milk.”

“It’s certainly putting veganism, veganity we call it in this movie, the vegan lifestyle is put out there. Todd isn’t necessarily the nicest promoter of the vegan lifestyle but it speaks well of it to say that you get the power of telekinesis and superpowers because you’re more clear, you’re more healthy, all of those things. So I think that they all have a good sense of humor.”

–Brandon Routh, on how he thinks vegans react to the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World movie in which he plays a vegan ex boyfriend who uses superpowers the diet gives him to fight Scott Pilgrim.

The Scott Pilgram vs. the World trailer is out.

The film features Michael Cera‘s character dueling with seven evil ex boyfriends of the girl who’s heart he wants to win.

This classic love story has an even more unusual twist in that one of the exes, Todd Ingram (played by Brandon Routh), is a vegan, which gives him telekinesis powers.

Watch the clip as Ingram throws Pilgrim across a street, smacking him into a building.

This jerky guy even occasionally cheats with dairy.

Some people really need to learn some better conflict/resolution skills.

If you were given superpowers because of your vegan status, you’d surely use them in a more productive, less violent way, like making test tube meat instantly available or turning real meat in faux at the snap of the finger or solving the pet overpopuation crisis.

The vegan violence begins around part 0:48.

As previously mentioned, Brandon Routh is playing Todd Ingram, one of the evil ex boyfriends Scott Pilgrim fights in the movie Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World.

Ingram is a vegan, so it’s hard to imagine him as “evil.”

It was previously thought that Ingram had only vegan mind reading powers, but Routh is now explaining that he’s given telekinetic powers–and smacks Scott around with them.

Here’s Routh explaining a little more about his role:

“I play Todd Ingram in the film. The film stars Michael Cera as Scott Pilgrim, and he has to defeat seven evil exes of Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s character, in order to continue dating her. The seven exes basically challenge Michael, and I play one of them. I’m a vegan rock star with a blonde wig. Because I’m vegan, I have these special powers, the power of telekinesis. So, I end up having this huge bass battle with Michael Cera, as we’re playing dueling bass guitars, and I throw him around telekinetically threw walls and such. And my blonde wig becomes a faux-hawk whenever I use my powers, and then flattens back down when I’m not using them.”

Wouldn’t you love to use telekinetic powers to throw the person who put chicken broth in your restaurant made vegetable soup?

Scott Pilgrim

As reported earlier, the movie adaptation to the Scott Pilgrim comic book series, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is set for release this year and Universal Pictures has released a few photos from the film.

In both the books and the film, Scott Pilgrim, played by Michael Cera falls in love with a girl only to discover he has to fight off all her seven ex boyfriends.

One of those exes, Todd Ingram, boasts graduating at the top of his class from the Vegan Academy while disparaging non-vegans, saying they use only 10% of their brains while the rest is filled with “curds and whey.”

However, it’s later learned that Todd may not use his brain as much as he claims, as his cheats with dairy.

Take a look at the photo of a real vegan, Jason Schwartzman, who plays Gideon Graves in the movie.

Superman star Brandon Routh, who had a comic role in Zack and Miri Make a Porno, is set to gain “vegan superpowers” in the upcoming movie Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

What the heck are vegan superpowers? Do you automatically know if a product has dairy in it without asking? No. Turns out, some people feel they gain psychic abilities after they become vegan. But the abilities have more to do with being in touch with the world and nature and more in tune with your interpersonal relationships.

Not to worry lacto-ovo guy, you’re vegan girlfriend doesn’t know your checking out her sister. Well, she does, but it has less to do with her being vegan and more to do with your eyes following her sibling’s butt when she walks into a room.

The movie is adapted from a series of comedy/action/romance comic books about a 20s something bass player in a band who falls in love with a girl, but has to defeat her evil ex-boyfriends in order to date her. We’ve all been there before.

Routh plays Todd Ingram, one of the evil exes. Interestingly, in the comic book series, Ingram secretly consumes non vegan products.

Not sure if other comic book psychic vegans picked up on his secret eating habits.
