Can wait for your guess dr strange 2 reaction when the movie is release on disney plus
You guys should react to Dead Alive aka Braindead
I recommend you guys react to HACKSAW RIDGE as well. One of my favorite movies of all time! It’s definitely worth your time.
Please, react to Turning Red
Hey guys fun fact my old art teacher designed and made the miniature Sanford set at the end of the film
Hot Fuzz is probably the closest to a "perfect" movie ever made. Everything is set up properly, every scene is filled with so many details it shouldn't be possible and the editing is absolutely flawless.
Not a second wasted. Every inch is either foreshadowing, a set up, or a pay off.
The transitions are so great!
Movies with Mikey has a brilliant episode covering this. It's so good, i highly recommend looking it up.
Absolutely. One of only 5 movies, I've given a 10/10 rating to and on a technical level it is absolutely the most perfect of those 5.
It's the definition of all killer no filler.
Tight script, great performances, brilliant editing, fantastic direction... Just exceptional.
His girlfriend that he breaks-up with is actually Cate Blanchett. They thought it would be funny if you got such a big name but you couldn’t tell that was her 😆
I cant remember his name, but they used a big name Lord of the Rings actor for the Santa Claus as well.
@@shaniamonde7341 That's actually Peter Jackson, the director of the LotR and Hobbit trilogies!
Her eyes are quite striking if you know to look for her
That was a little dig at the studio - they wanted them to include some bigger names so they cast Cate Blanchett and made her unrecognisable.
Another celebrity gag they pull is the ranking of officers at the station in regards to that actors current fame, starting from tv to film to UKs beloved
Also, fun fact about Hot Fuzz; The village of Sandford is a police in-joke.
In the exams or training exercises the UK police participate in the location where all of the training events happen is called Sandford. So them saying "This is Sandford, nothing ever happens around here." was a joke specifically for the UK cops in the audience.
Nicolas dropkicking the grandma will never stop being funny.
Let's be honest everytime someone dropkick a grandma on screen, it's gonna be hilarious
"You can't just make people disappear"
"Er, yes I can - I'm the Chief Inspector"
"There hasn't been a RECORDED murder in Sandford for 20 years."
They literally spell everything out for you! It just never occurs to you that the lines have so much meaning.
I literally never connected the Chief Inspector comment with Sandford like that.. thanks man..
The line "A love strucken Romeo..." from the Dire Straights played on Skinner's radio when he drove away from the 'road crash'.
Considering that our terrible actor played Romeo so horribly, it was kind of fitting.
Later on it was another line from a song that played on Skinner's radio: "And I bring you... fire" from the song "Fire" by the 'Crazy World of Arthur James Brown.
Better known as "I am the god of hellfire, and I bring you.... FIRE!"
Right when he drove up to the charred husk of the Fridge Magnate beyond the police cordon.
I love that EVERYTHING in this movie is so revealing once you dissect it.
@@RustyDust101 All the songs in this movie fit with the murers. And all people got names with meanings. Skinner or Tim Messenger (the rat) for example. Angel as the hero aswell.
@@Verhoeven1980 also Angel's name fits his badge number of 777 and he came in riding on a pale horse like the angel of death. He was judgment.
They *figuratively* spelled it out.
“The greater good” lives in my head rent free Everytime someone says it I just have to repeat in an ominous voice
I do the same!
The greater good..
@@alexisnaranjo the greater good!
the greater good
@@BassLineProductionsI the Greater good
Fun fact: a really big expense in the movie was the rights to show the DVDs of Bad Boys and Point Break. Edgar Wright said that the shot of all the DVDs was probably the most expensive shot in the whole film.
That and cgi ing out the MASSIVE cathedral 👽 Paul next please...and Dredd ( not judge stallone)
Damn, I feel like he could've come to that conclusion without seeing them.
thats just sad, idiots should pay hott fuzz instead
@@darksoulsspeedrunner5912 yeah, those movies are pygmies compared to the monumental masterpiece that is Hot Fuzz
I love how the line “if you wanna be a big cop in a smal town, fuck of up to the model village” is payed of with the literal fight there at the end, genius.
Also the kid is Aaron A. Aaronson.
Also also: DS Wainwright and DC Cartwright. Wainwright is an archaic name for someone who makes wagons or carts. So is Cartwright.
Amazing, I never noticed that
Off* twice
I love how tight this script is, perfect example of “Chekhov’s Gun” where everything shown/discussed in Act 1 & 2 pays off in Act 3.
Literally everything single thing in the film is either a set-up, a pay-off, or both. Incredible
They have an entire Chekhov's armoury, including a Chekhov's sea mine.
@@NumenoreanNazgul Sea mine!
I mean that's pretty much Edgar Wright's speciality. Every single seemingly innocuous detail established in the first half of his films always (and I mean always) comes back in a significant way in the second
@@christianwise637 I know right like the dialogue. “Everybody and their mums is packing” then later with the farmer “MOM!”.
Just noticed, Nicholas stopping Skinner punch with left hand, and we see at the beginning that Nicholas training left hand with hand grippers. Edgar Wright do love to put so many minor details
Is that also the hand that he got stabbed in that's "Still a bit stiff?"
@@sebastianjoseph2828 yeah that's why he's using the grip trainer it's for his hands rehab.
Fun fact: the fight at the supermarket (grocery store that Skinner owns), is an old chain from the U.K. called sommerfields. Simon Pegg dubbed it "the battle of sommerfield", a reference to the battle of somme, which is in itself genius. The whole film is very British and a lot of jokes are almost inside jokes if you know the kind of area this is set in.
A lot of the guns they use in the store are WWI ish vintage too.
Sandford is the name used for fictional towns in UK police training exercisess
Apparently the car chase is Timothy Dalton's favourite scene he's ever had to do, hell he enjoyed doing this movie so much he showed up first thing in the morning to film scenes where he wasn't gonna be on camera just so Simon Pegg had someone to work with in the Manager's Office scene (they filmed the same scenes focusing on Dalton the day before)
Dude... thats awesome
@I steal NFT's Nah that's Danny Boyle
@I steal NFT's He made that Beetles movie, Yesterday.
@I steal NFT's he made the film Yesterday in like 2019
When he was a young actor working on his first movie The Lion in Winter with Katharine Hepburn he was in a similar situation. His first scene on his first day shooting was sitting opposite Katharine & they filmed her face on doing her line & cut at the end of the day saying “Katharine you can have the day off” when they were to film his response. She said “but I talk to Tim in the scene! I am coming in tomorrow morning” & she came in the following day just to say the line to him from off camera. He obviously remembered how this big star treated him as a rookie actor & vowed to do the same for others he worked with. Nice guy as well as a fantastic actor.
I love how Danny gets to do everything he asked Angel if he’d done by the end of the movie. Great writing
Very similar to Shaun of the Dead where the entire plot of the movie is planned out by Ed at the beginning. I don’t remember all the details, but it’s stuff like “then we’ll stumble back here, play some pool, maybe get a quick bite” and at the end of the movie they literally stumble back there (because they’re pretending to be zombies), fight the zombies off with pool cues, and Ed gets bitten.
Cornetto trilogy makes me laugh more than most comedies these days
Visual comedy at its finest
all comedies*
@@madtitan0825 Edgar Wright is a visual comedy master!
@@aleaanderson6600 amen, honestly more comedy should try more daring stuffs like this, I’m not saying copying Wright but like do some unique stuffs instead of just hiring comedians to do improv on screen constantly, the stage is their playground don’t afraid to go wild
@@ItsZareh Don't exaggerate.
Simon Pegg’s face during the “homage” to Romeo and Juliet is iconic. The way they’re dressed, the gun, and the song they sang are all references to the Baz Luhrmann’s film adaptation of the play starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes.
But that movie is so good lol
It's my favorite joke of the movie. Its literally the most hackneyed version of Romeo and Juliet that could be preformed and I would pay so much money to see it.
It’s funny because Leonardo DiCaprio(Who murdered Bill Shakespeare) only dates Eve Drapers aka women 20 years younger than him LOL
That's the first thing I thought when the scene started. I was like wait a minute that's the movie version. Leo?
You can see the rest of the NWA behind him smiling and you can honestly tell they're thinking "These people are gonna DIE TONIGHT."
Seeing people reconcile that the motive breaks down to "they made the village look bad" so most of the "crimes" are extremely petty is always so fun.
“You wanna be a Big Cop in a Small Town? Then fuck off up the Model Village!”
Final scene takes place in the model village as a Godzilla fight lmao
It's also honestly realistic in a way. Most crimes are crimes of passion, and are often for the stupidest of reasons.
petty? petty? have you been to some of the small 'Little England' towns, my own still has a ducking stool! lmao!
no, most of the crimes were people being shitheads
just be a decent person and you don't need to get reprimanded
@@SomeUnsoberIdiot maybe drink more, get less unsober. I hate this overall argument. The police are not judge, jury and executioner, neither are they Judge Judy and executioner. And neither are the NWA. And being a shit head might deserve some kind of reprimand but get bent if you think people deserve to die without any due process for what they killed them for.
The "narp" joke is the greatest one-word joke in comedy history
"You're a Doctor, deal with it" I quote this movie almost daily lol
Spotted a foreshadowing for the first time that I haven't seen any other videos note, when at the fair shooting game, the fella says to Angel "take down all the people and you get to walk away with the monkey" the monkey being Danny.
Danny accidentally shooting the doctor in the foot with the air-rifle on the shooting stand. Exactly the same foot he shot him with his shotgun when he threw it away in the big gunfight.
@@RustyDust101 And he's a doctor he can deal with it
I've always wondered if there was a running 'ape' joke through Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz. In Shaun Of The Dead, Ed says 'Shall I do Clyde?' in reference to his Gorilla impression, in Hot Fuzz, Danny is symbolised by the cuddly monkey.
One of my favorite facts about this movie: It's popular among real police officers because it shows something that cop movies almost never do, the paperwork.
Hear me out:
Hot Fuzz has a perfect script!
You can say any line from this movie, no matter how mundane, and anyone who's seen Hot Fuzz knows you're quoting Hot Fuzz.
no luck catchin them killers then?
@@IxRL3W15 It's just the one killer actually!
@@PokerPlayerJames I read those in the proper voices
"Ohhh we're already Firm friends!"
The Greater Good!
Kinda crazy seeing all the cameos in this movie. Olivia Coleman is one of the cops, and the Yarp guy is The Hound from Game of Thrones
I had no idea it was Sandor Clegane
My fav is Kate Blanchett. She's his girlfriend.
also, Peter Jackson was the Santa guy who stabbed him
@I steal NFT's no they were all famous before
Not cameos though.
"Everybody and their moms are packing round here" a single line sets up the final gunfight, amazing.
Even though Timothy Dalton is the most obvious villain casting. Some of the NWA is made up by known villain actors. The Doctor played Don Raphael in The Mask of Zorro. The Priest was Belloq in Raiders of the Lost Ark and Ivan Ooze in The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie.
Oh my GOD, the priest is Belloq AND Ivan Ooze?? Ivan Ooze is played by the same guy who played Belloq?? WHY have i never known this fact before??
@@Dylan_Platt Your reaction mirrors my own. This is mind boggling.
I LOVE Don Raphael. SUCH A GREAT VILLIAN!
@@Dylan_Platt Exactly what I was about to type. 🤣
And the innkeeper also played Mrs Baylock, the evil Satanic nanny in The Omen (the original one from the 70s)
This is Edgar Wright's best film. Say what you will about Shaun of the Dead, The World's End, Baby Driver, or Last Night in Soho. They all have their strengths, absolutely, but not one of them is as well written, tightly edited, or quotably funny as HF.
It's criminal that you left out Scott Pilgrim in the list of films
Spot on.....this is a near perfect film........
definitely!! 👍
Well I mean, we could grab Liz, kill Philip, grab mum, go to the Winchester and have a nice cold pint to discuss this
@@darkglasses87 Definitely a fantastic film, but I was admittedly thinking more along the lines of his “original” features as opposed to adaptation. But you’re right!
32:54 I've seen this movie and reactions to it at least a dozen times. This is the first time I noticed he used the hand he was rehabbing from getting stabbed by St. Nick to grab the punch and turn the tide in the fight. His insane dedication is indeed the turning point.
St. Nick was actually Peter Jackson.
The best thing about this film full of absolutely amazing things is that Janine (Nick's girlfriend in the crime scene unit) was played by an uncredited Cate Blanchett.
Another uncredited masked cameo with a Lord Of The Rings tie is Peter Jackson himself, as the Father Christmas Stabber in the opening montage.
Cate asked to be part of the film because she loved Shaun of the Dead.
What I love about this movie is it gave so many legendary British character actors one more chance in their later years to be in a big blockbuster close to home and have fun with old friends. The behind the scenes stuff looked genuinely like the atmosphere on set was laughter and camaraderie all the way and it shows on screen.
Such a great way for Simon and Edgar to honour the on screen heroes of their youth
I see it a different way. Pegg, Frost and Wright are funny, clever people who have made friends across the spectrum of the British acting world. So, in answer to the question,
"Are you doing anything next 'whenever'? There is no money in it, but it will be a laugh," everyone showed up for a few hours, or days, or weeks, for 'shits and giggles'.
Nobody was given 'one more chance', they were there because they knew it would be good and also, a production of 'laughter and camaraderie all the way'.
Love this movie.
Also, Janine is played by Cate Blanchett??? When I first found out I didn't believe it.
The one and ONLY Galadriel!
Don't forget that stabby Santa is played by Peter Jackson.
Also, Bill Bailey, who plays the twin police officers, once played a character in Spaced named Bilbo Bagshot.
And the hound from game of thrones plays the Yarp guy
Yeah, her eyes are so unique. First time i see her, i was like: "Wait a min...."
@@DeskIsUndead can't believe that's him!
It's called "The Cornetto Trilogy" because in every one of them, one of the main characters eats a Cornetto ice cream on screen. In this it's blue, in Shaun Of The Dead it's red and in The World's End it's green.
Also, Nick's girlfriend at the start is played by Cate Blanchett, which I didn't realise for years.
Also those Cornetto colours have another meaning but I don't want to spoil it for anyone that hasn't watched all 3 films
"in Shaun Of The Dead it's red"
... so he had some red on him?
@@joevictor53 Really? I want to know. Label it a SPOILER & spill it please.
POSSIBLE SPOILER:
All I can think of is:-
Blue for boys in blue, red for "You've got red on you" & green for 'little green men'. Am i right?
@@kereminde Hahaha! Something like that?
No Cornetto was eaten on screen in The World's End.
There’s so many subtle things you don’t catch the first watch. The neighbourhood watch alliance being the group name, the N.W.A 😂, and the fact that Skinner plays Romeo & Juliet by Dire Straits in his car as he drives away after the two that played them have been killed were two for me. Olivia Colman’s dirty jokes are great but the one when she’s looking at the spit roast and says “that’s me after a couple of pints” 😂
This movie begs to be watched multiple times. I've seen it a ton and I'm still finding new callbacks/ payoffs.
A pig on a spit roast, no less.
Exactly I don't know how the missed NWA whose most famous song is "f**k tha police"
I just want to say, I appreciate Calvin saying "he's stealing biscuits", British film deserves British terminology / correct terminology😜
Its the only terminology
*incorrect terminology
There, fixed it for ya 😜
@@CmdrShepard95 Invent your own language then talk about correct terminology.
@@joeloates1685 It’s a joke
@@CmdrShepard95 I know. Just my opinion. There ARE Americans who believe they speak the proper English.
I love Aaron sitting up when the murderer shows up. You can see him instantly being more interested and wondering what's going to happen :D.
"if you want to be a big cop in a small town, fuck off up the model village" has got to be one of the funniest almost missable lines ever written or acted 🤣
Fun fact: the actor who played the Priest, Paul Freeman, also played Ivan Ooze in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie!
No way!
WHAT!!!
Belloq in Raiders, and the bald guy who worked for skinner was The Hound in Game of Thrones
WHOA. Okay, then. Had no idea.
And a terrible van damme movie🙈
People who react to Hot Fuzz are doing it For The Greater Good.
This is my favourite of the trilogy, it just hits with every line and every shot and delivers a callback on every single thing that's setup. The clash of small country town and hot police action is just genius. I loved the disbelief of your faces at the motives - petty small town grievences - was perfect.
The Greater Good
The Greater Good…
The greater good

I really miss seeing Nick Frost and Simon Pegg do these type of movies. Their chemistry is just amazing! Great reaction guys. I don’t know why I’m so surprised you know who Bill Bailey is but that’s so cool to me.
I like them in Paul. It’s a cracking film.
@@fayesouthall6604 yeah Paul is a great film imo, I know quite a lot of people didn’t really like it compared to their others but I think it’s a great fun movie.
When they run from the mine they jump over a hedge. The only reason they can jump over it is because the farmer clipped it, which is why they were there in the first place.
Edgar Wright, the master of the edit. So efficient never wastes a shot. Everything is in service of telling the story. And the script is so, so clever too. Masterful stuff.
I might argue this is a perfect movie, only ever gets better with rewatches.
Literally one of my favourite movies of all time, so good
Same
Love that they cast edward Woodward, the original 1980's 'Equalizer' as the head of the neighbourhood watch. He also starred in the Wicker man which this film definitely pays homage to.
Billie Whitelaw - the woman who ran the hotel - was also in the Wicker Man. Edgar Wright told her during shooting that someone was remaking it and she was horrified (an entirely reasonable response given how the Nic Cage version turned out)
10:12 “he’s stealing biscuits”
The one rare occasion I’ve heard an American call them biscuits, which i’m so happy about, but technically the biscuits he’s stealing are Maryland cookies lol which is still a type of biscuit for us Brits but “cookies” would also have been correct in this instance. Thanks for your effort though we appreciate it 😉
The part straight after the first murder and Angel picks up the phone in bed and says "Decaffeinated?" Is one of my favourite lines xD
I've seen this movie dozens of times and just recently I caught something I've missed that's one of my favorite setups. The Andys say something like "you wanna play big cop in a small town? why don't you go fuck about the model village?" and that's where Angel ends up in his final fight. So many quick lines, everything is setup, I love how when Angel is taking out members of the NWA they are all designed to look like accidents, this is such a perfect movie.
Aaron’s theory that the living statue was the murderer was one of the things I enjoyed most about this reaction. And Rick’s constant hysterics. Such a great movie, it was fun watching it with you all.
Apprently when Timmothy dalton got the call from his agent he hung up on him because he thought they were taking the piss it wasnt until Simon pegg rang him and said look i know you said you had retired but i really want you to be in this film that he read the script and immediatley joined the cast love stories like that
Just a heads up for the "why did you swerve?!" Swans in England and Wales are owned by the queen and harming one is technically illegal. While she only really exercises that owner ship in the area of the Windsor and down the River Themes, it's just sort of taboo to hurt a swan in the rest of England.
Mate, my cousin and a few others spent the day shooting rabbits which had overridden a particular area, then he almost crashed the Landrover, on the way home, swerving to avoid a bloody rabbit!
I know, it makes no sense.
People brake and swerve in order to avoid killing things. It has nowt to do with who is supposed to own them.
You have no idea how long your British viewers have been waiting for this one.
"I can't tell anyone apart!" Yes Aaron... that's the joke xD this movie is hilarious. Kind of like a british Naked Gun.
Such a great way of putting it. Never thought of that before. Great job
The funniest and most memorable scene of this whole movie is the old man with the extremely thick countryside British accent (played by David Bradley aka Mr. Filtch from Harry Potter) and the 3 person telephone game needed to understand him!
I die laughing every single time I see it!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also the woman who plays Simon Pegg’s girlfriend in the beginning is Cate Blanchett aka Galadriel aka Hela from Thor Ragnarok.
Also Walter Frey in GoT. And Jim Broadbent, who played Inspector Butterman , also played Archmaester Ebrose who mentored Sam in the Citadel. And Professor Slugthorn.
i love the shot where danny “stabs” nick. it has such a great double meaning. the first time you watch it, nick looking in shock at his chest is “oh god, he betrayed me”. then the second time it’s him processing “why didn’t that hurt? oh, because of the notebook, OH he’s on my side ok i’ll play along”. and it works perfectly for both. so good.
“they don’t have any police guns?!” well, no. it’s england lol. police forces here have specific firearms teams but not every officer has a gun. and i don’t even know if a town as small as the one in this film would have such a team or not.
I have seen this movie roughly eight billion times. To see Aaron quoting that “Fascist” “Hag” exchange at the end after just one watch filled my heart with joy. You guys are the best.
After you’ve seen this movie multiple times you realise it’s truly perfect! Enjoy it just as much each time after too 👍
I love that when Nick asks for the cell to be open we can hear "Danny can you open 4" before we even "meet" him :)
Hot Fuzz is one of my favorite comedy movies, if not my #1 favorite. Simon Pegg is a genius and I love him
After seeing Timothy Dalton's performance in this movie, I would be very surprised if he didn't absolutely love doing this.
I've seen this movie so many times and still notice new little things each time I watch it. It took me ages to catch the "Fridge Magnate" gag.
Weird how Auntie Jackie's Sister's Brother's Boy played virtually the same role, and had an identical chase-through-the-houses scene, in the third episode of Torchwood the following year.
Aaron should know by now that the UK only has 10 actors.
More actors per capita than anywhere, like half of the main characters in the mcu.
Nah brodie most of them just put on a fake American accent and steal mf’s jobs and until an interview comes out and they tell everyone they actually are British
I mean not really. A lot of actors like Christian bale are mistaken for American when they’re actual British. We just have the superior acting talent
@@erosion271 To be fair the US has quite a bit of talent too. I genuinely thought Johnny Depp was british for the longest time
@@georgewillis592 Oh I know bro america has some fine actors. But they’ve also got some of the worst too. Depp though is an elite level performer no arguments there
I love how different Rory McCann is in this as the Yarp guy, to GOT as the Hound
The thing Aaron has seen about editing is Every Frame a Painting which did a video on Edgar Wright and is a great video worth watching
I love that channel just wished he continued making vids.
The movie reference nobody gets: Romeo + Juliet with Leonardo Decaprio and Claire Danes.
The bad play is actually the stage version of the ridiculous 1996 "modern take" on the play.
What an amazing joke nobody gets.
Simon’s face when he saw it got it.
I never realized this bit but at soon as I read it I couldn't believe it hadn't clicked before
We just spent a week in the village where this was filmed. It was so great seeing all these locations. My favorite comedy of all time
One thing you may not be aware of. The code for the evidence locker is 999, which is the UK emergency services number, equivalent to your 911.
With the cameos, the Santa who stabs him in the hand was Peter Jackson, and Janine was Cate Blanchett. So you have three people from LotR / The Hobbit. Bob from the crime scene was Joe Cornish, who directed and wrote Attack the Block. He used to do the Adam & Joe Show with Adam Buxton, who played Tim Messenger in this.
This film has a lot of the best foreshadowing of any movie, ever.
The colour of the Cornetto in each movie relates to the story. Red for blood in Shaun of the Dead. Blue for police in Hot Fuzz. Green for who the bad guys are in The World's End.
It's worthy to note that the beginning foreshadows the twist, as in what happens to Angel mirrors the town. He was making them look bad and was "disappeared" with him even saying "you can't just make people disappear" being replied to with "yes I can, I'm the chief inspector."
Here’s a fun bit of trivia, early in the film’s development Simon Pegg’s character was supposed to have a female love interest, but as the story evolved the character was cut and most of her lines were given to Nick Frost’s character completely unchanged.
Calvin also pointed that out on 43:00
Maybe watch the full video first yeh?
I have never seen another movie so thoroughly apply the concept of chekhov's gun. It seems like in the first three quarters of the movie, nearly every line of dialogue, every character, every literal gun has a later payoff. It's insane.
When I 1st saw this in the cinema, it immediately went into my top 10. Nothing had made me laugh as much and as loudly since the likes of Airplane & Blazing Saddles, especially when the farmer's mother is drop kicked, the comedic horror of Tim's murder, & "nothing like a bit of girl on girl" from future Oscar winner Olivia Coleman.
The editing is superb, as is the casting (a who's who of great British talent, including the original Equaliser, Edward Woodwood), and the soundtrack, ie. Romeo & Juliet (Dire Straits) is the song playing from Skinner's car when he drives by the traffic 'accident'.
Trivia: Bill Bailey, the desk officer, known primarily as a brilliant musical comedian, won 2020's Strictly Come Dancing, the UK's version of Dancing with the Stars.☺
Been getting my friends to watch Hot Fuzz and I still laugh every time I watch it with them. Fantastic movie.
It took me this long to get the joke on "fridge magnate" and I'm angry at myself now.
For years I thought he'd just called him the fridge magnet because he was a fat fucker...I never even got that it was fridge magnate 😂
Reason why it is called a cornetto trilogy:
The name originates from a "silly joke" during the promotion of Hot Fuzz. Wright had written in Cornetto ice cream as a hangover cure for Frost's character in Shaun of the Dead, based on his own experiences.
This movie is a masterclass in moviemaking.
My favourite comedy ever….. very pleased you guys have watched this British cultural icon! I quote shit from this every day basically……”any luck catching them swans?” “Morning Angle” I very happy surprise to the channel 🤩
Anytime I'm severely depressed, I watch Hot Fuzz. Always works at cheering me up
With how much you're enjoying the Cornetto Trilogy I would love for you all, with Eric, to do Spaced too. There's only two seasons, seven episodes apiece, so it won't take you long. Simon and Nick super early in their careers, loads of actors you'll recognise from Sci-Fi and British tv/films generally; it's really nerdy and you'll love all the many references throughout and it's a fun time generally.
Do also give Paul a watch too. It's not part of the Trilogy technically but it's still the same duo in a fun, reference-filled film which is definitely worth checking out for some easy watching.
Spaced? the finest & most emotional slo' mo' finger gunfight ever!!!!!!!! ;)
@@grizzlynad "This in't grass, it's oregano" "How can you tell?" "I'm a catering student" 😂
@@TheSpectre223 🤣 it's comedy gold, as was the paint balling episode (I owned a paintball site at the time it came out lol)
I was just about to recommend spaced. I started rewatching this morning and i can't believe nobody has reacted to it yet.
He's not angry, he's intense.
This is by far my most watched movie of all time. I am SO tickled to watch y'all watch and share my joy. Thank you, guys - looking forward to what comes next!
The World's End has some really heavy emotional sadness and grimness to it, which affects how people rate it, but I think its just as great as the rest of the Cornetto Trilogy. And its full of tight editing and quick wit and excitement too.
I was a bit shocked when I saw this and realized that Danny gave him the notebook because he knew what Angel was going to find and that is how Danny was going to help him out of the situation
Love this film! The scene where Danny dives in front of Sgt Angel to take the bullet is a reference to Edgar Wrights old TV show Spaced (which you should totally react to as well!)
Can't Believe its taken you guys this long to get around to Hot Fuzz... Such a brilliant modern classic and one of, if not Edgar Wright's best film. Timeless comedy and never stops being hilarious!
I remember I never had any interest in seeing this movie but I reluctantly agreed to watch it with an ex. Probably the best thing that came out of that relationship 😂 I love this movie so much
Wish they would react to Spaced. It’s a short 2 season series and was an earlier collaboration between Wright, Pegg, and Frost. Also has a lot of pop culture references prior to that time (1999).
I’ve seen this film about 100 times and it never gets boring, I like about half an hour from where it was filmed.
Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Worlds End are a "trilogy" in one sense. They're known as the Cornetto trilogy. The three flavors are in each movie. So...it's a trilogy but only ice cream wise.
The constant smile on Ricks face is me every time I watch this masterpiece
Possibly my favourite film of all time. The script is so perfect it's just impressive!
Omg I can’t believe you guys are reacting to this! This was one of my favorite movies growing up! But I remember always skipping the end where the guy gets stabbed from under his chin cause it freaked me out as a kid lmao
Definitely my favorite of the three, and my favorite cop movie of all times.
Now THIS is something I’ve wanted to see for a long time. My favourite guys watching my favourite movie!
One of the best written, acted, directed & edited comedy movies of all time! Every rewatch gets better lol
There was also Edward Woodward who played Tom Weaver...he was in the main character in the UK tv series "The Equalizer"..1985 - 89
Holy sh*t! Michael is the Hound from Game of Thrones! He looks so weird with no beard.
YES HE IS!
@@ReneReacts NO. NO. NO. YARP 😆
Walder fray (GOT) was the guy with the sea mine too
I love this movie so much. Was so hyped to see y’all reacting to it!
One thing I’ve always loved is the editing and the sound. They are so perfect.
The Farmers and farmers mums packing heat is my favorite set up joke. Once he comes back on the horse and meets the farmer and his mum with the shotgun
The kid constantly on his phone at Shaun's job in SOTD is also one of the Andys in Hot Fuzz.
13:04 fucking broke me. I was dying of laughter when I saw it the first time. Just the use of the gun and the lights cutting out, the little ditty, to the song choice was just incredibly funny to me and I couldn’t stop laughing for like a whole minute.
Nicholas's face as the lights came up KILLED me!
The whole trilogy is fantastic. I have probably seen hot fuzz over 20 times and I never get tired of this one. Pure masterpiece. Everything from the humor to the jump cuts 👌
This movie is pure genius, honoring every sort of movie genre out there, except sci-fi. Comedy, horror, action, suspense, mystery, drama, bromance... Incredible cast as well, aside from Dalton. The script is perfect too with all the callbacks. I never get tired of watching this. It's my favorite Edgar Wright film. Some cameos were Peter Jackson as Santa and Kate Blanchette as Janine.
