Nick and Simon worked together for years as waiters before Simon's career took off so as soon he could he helped his friend get his start in acting so much of their comedy is built on their long close friendship and this shines through in everything they do.
You should check out Nick's biography "Truths, Half Truths and Little White Lies", it's a great read. Btw, Simon was the waiter, Nick was a chef, and yes just as you would expect they would fuck with people's food if they were rude. I've always said be polite to the people who handle your food :D
the more times you watch it, the more foreshadowing moments you notice, it truly is GENIUS
Which is a lot harder than it looks.
Like the others in this series.
It was clearly written backwards.
Very clever set up and writing.
One of the best things about Edgar wright films are the amount of brilliant callbacks and jokes that resurface. Watched this film about 100 times (it’s shown basically every Saturday in UK on ITV2), and watching this reaction I’ve noticed the exacerbated gag (Shaun asks what it means and then uses it later on, then Ed asks what it means further down the line) and the line at the start where Pete says Ed should live in the shed becuase he’s an animal (foreshadowing the end). Also where one of the supermarket zombies is Neal from the electronic store earlier in the movie. Such genius writing!
One of the things I love most about this channel - and believe me, this is NOT a criticism - is Spencer’s ability to absolutely miss every point in the stuff you watch! I’m guessing this isn’t deliberate - but my god, it makes these reactions hilarious! Never change, Spencer!
The near-constant misreads are quite impressive
This film has such amazing writing, they tell you everything that's going to happen at the start.... "why don't you go live in the shed?", "the next time I see him he'll be dead". The writing is impeccable!
The Cornetto movies...fantastically silly but greatly entertaining. Hot Fuzz is one I can watch over and over.
Hot fuzz is my favourite. So many callbacks
I love that the entire plot and what will happen is fully laid out in the pub by Ed at the start when they are getting pissed.
Oh look Dylan Moran is in this (the Irish one) , if people are commenting in the IT Crowd reactions "you missed Black Books" by going directly to the IT Crowd after Father Ted. Watching a film with Dylan Moran in it will fuel it further ;)
Every time I hear Queen don't stop me now reminds me of the pub scene
The genius of Edgar Wright is so understated in this movie & the others in the trilogy. One of my all time favourites.
Trilogy? Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End?
@@Lazarus404yes, known as the cornetto trilogy. Daniel and Spencer actually refer to it as such in the intro.
All directed by Edgar Wright & starring Nick Frost & Simon Pegg, written by Wright & Pegg.
I love how we use the word 'cunt' as a term of endearment amongst friends and acquaintances as well as using it as an insult. Same with loads of other swearies. It's all about context.
Australians do so even more often.
To answer this seriously, I was brought up thinking that word was the worst, total end of the line, never to be used. Then I got a job as a litigator at a firm of solicitors. To say it was used every second word would be an understatement. By every one - young, old, male, female, disabled, black, white, religious, not religious.... It was a word that depending on its deployment, COULD be nasty, aggressive - but usually was friendly, loving. Trying to "unlearn" the use of the word when I left was very hard - even now 20 years later it's still in my "auto say" mind-set and I have to block it in certain company!
I think it's also very much a regional thing, thinking of somewhere like Glasgow for example where it's widely used as a greeting but it's still always depends on the context as to how offensive it is@@damightyshabba439
@damightyshabba439 Language is so flexible. I love to flex language. Flexing turns nouns into verbs. And verbs flex into adjectives. Those adjectives are so flexy. Which doesn't even flexabulate us back to the beginning.
You don't need to swear to have fun with language. But it possibly helps.
@@Varksterable One of my favourite insults was on twitter when someone called that syrup-wearing tory politician michael fabric-cunt an "utter trombone".
It doesn't work so well these days, but the "meeting the other crew" gag, was that everyone in the other group was a slightly more famous and accomplished actors than in Shaun's group (and handling the situation in a better way), with multiple people appearing the in same shows and/or playing the same types of character. This was before Frost and Pegg made it big, and whenLittle Britain, Black Books, Office (UK) were some of the hottest shows on UK TV.
Have they said that that was the gag or is that your own interpretation?
@@GoggledAgog They have said that.
One of my fav things is that all of the people on the TV are real TV personalities from the time - the news reader is the real news reader at the time!
A rare easter egg is when Shaun is on the phone with his mother and he is going to go to her house, Ed yells, "We're coming to get you, Barbara" In the original movie, Night of the Living Dead, Johnny and Barbara are in a the car together going to visit their mother in a remote cemetery. He constantly teases Barbara with the line, "They're coming to get you Barbara".
Yeah, I was disappointed they didn't get on to that. Obviously not zombie film buffs
This movie is a homage to the father of zombie movies, George A Romero. He loved it so much that he gave Simon Pegg and director Edgar Wright cameos as zombies in his movie Land of the Dead.
Yeah, we know.
No, we didn't@@dougdougw
@@dougdougw I didn't, so kindly do not speak for me.
@@krashdYou didn't know that Shaun of the Dead was a play on 'Dawn' of the Dead? Good grief.
@@dougdougwmore likely they didn't know Nick and Simon had cameos.
"We are coming to get you Barbara!" is from Night of the Living Dead, rewatch this movie in a few years and films and your gonna see a lot more references.
The thing I like the most about this movie is the more subtle bits with the juxtoposition of the daily grind of city life against the cliche zombie horror flick and how nearly indistinguishable they are. Anyone who has had to travel on the London Underground every day will know that it's hardly a metaphor, people really do just look and behave like zombies. That kind of social commentary is present in lots of zombie films, Jacob's Ladder being a great example, but Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg do a great job here of turning it into observational comedy.
The irish guy, Dylan Moran starred and co-wrote Black Books with Graham Linehan- a really funny sitcom. It also stars Tamsin Greig who is one of the other people in that line of doppelgangers led by Jessica Hynes, who starred and co-wrote spaced with Simon Pegg, another great sitcom directed by Edgar Wright. It's like 2 degrees of seperation when it comes to UK comedy.
'we're coming to get you Barbara', a nod to the original zombie film 'night of the living dead' by George A Romero in 1968, 'they're coming to get you Barbara' both brilliant films, great reaction guys!
Love the whole story arc where Shaun is forced to step up, adopt responsibility and become the man he should for his partner and to enable his life to move on, where Ed didn’t need to and basically ends the film unchanged but in a more healthy compartmentalised role in Shaun’s life
just in case you were wondering why Shaun was the only one hitting the zombies coming out of the flat that's because all the other people had real weapons not props
The old "bendy cricket bat" scene where you can clearly see his cricket bat is made out of some sort of hard foam.
Bill Nighy who plays the Step-dad is a great actor. There is one film in particular that is a very good comedy. He plays a hitman and it is called Wild Target.
He was also in one episode of a comedy series called People Like Us. The episode was called The Photographer. The sries was a mockumentary where a man called Roy Mallard follows people around in their jobs.
There is a film that is one of Simon Pegg's lesser known ones, which he did with David Schwimmer, called Big Nothing, which is also excellent comedy - one of the best I've seen.
Penelope Wilton is such a great mum. She's only in the movie for 15-20 minutes but she's the perfect mum in that time and when she dies you really feel it.
Movies to check out: Attack the Block, Four Lions, and Son of Rambow and you should watch Spaced sometime. Also if you want something spooky for Halloween watch Garth Merenghi’s Dark Place, you’ll see some familiar faces there x
If you guys like this have a look at Spaced. Great sitcom with a lot of the cast from this.
Couldn't agree more. Spaced, The Office & The League of Gentlemen are the three greatest British comedies of all time. It's not just about taste, they ARE better. I don't have time to explain why. 😜
Black books. Saw 2 characters from that in this saw fran briefly
So much foreshadowing in this movie and I've watched it many, many times but, I've only just caught the final news clip "claims that the virus was caused by rage infected monkey's have now been dismissed as bonkers "- it's a slight jab at the zombie movie '28 Days Later' which was released two years earlier.
Not sure if its been mentioned but "Noodle" who Ed talks to on the phone throughout the film is Noel, the teenager that works with Shaun
Omg the movies these two do together are pure gold, great pick. So excited for this reaction
The ice cream is called a cornetto. That’s why it’s called the cornetto trilogy after the ice cream
great movie. Cornetto trilogy as a whole is amazing. Hot Fuz z is my personal fav.
Anything with Simon Pegg is guaranteed gold, especially if it has Nick Frost too
Totally agree.
Their sitcom Spaced is good.
@@RobertTaylor-gz2fu haven't seen that. Will have to watch it.
@@valeriewalker3886you're in for a treat
*fried gold
Great video, Shaun of the Dead is a cult classic in the UK, along with Hot Fuzz and Paul (other films with these two stars). Those films are also highly recommended. I think you are now at a point where you really "get" UK humour, understated, self deprecating, proper taking the piss, and proper sarcasm, etc. Cheers
Great reaction, one of your best. The ice cream is 'The Cornetto', they feature in all 3 films. Cornetto's became a UK staple in the heatwave of '76 but were invented in Italy way before this.
I'd forgotten how good this film is.
Can't wait for hot fuzz, the best of the 3 in my opinion. Surely you guys have seen it before?
Love hanging out with you guys, it’s so cool being able to watch someone seeing this stuff for the first time. Your British passports are in the mail 🇬🇧🇺🇸
When you watch Hot Fuzz (not a spoiler) make sure you watch all the end credits 👍
Love this film some great actors in this. Hot fuzz and worlds end are great as well.
I really hope they react to the others in this series too. I'm going to re-watch them right now anyway; this has made me just need more of this understated-overstated kind of humour that sets British comedy apart.
Some of it is so clever. Some of it is just ridiculous.
But it never fails to entertain in a way that popcorn, mainstream, high-budget films seldom do.
It's pure genius.
Just when you thought Hollywood was the only game in town.
The before and after “z-day” longshots of Shaun walking to the shop and back are just brilliant. The fact he is too hungover, self-obsessed and stuck in his groove to notice the apocalypse is one of my all-time favourite visual gags
They were also both filmed on the first day of shooting, because the crew saw Edgar Wright as a bit of an upstart, so he felt the need to prove himself by directing two complex intricate one-shots back-to-back.
K Horror and J Horror is something very specific to their own genres but B Horror is sadly often overlooked because British cinema is known more for its comedy and romance than terror. Putting the three together creates a classic piece of cinematography
You have got to watch Simon Pegg in "Run Fat Boy, Run"....brilliant film
"I ran it under the cold tap!" Peak Britishness.
👌😂 One of my faves, typical Brit. humour. You need to watch a few times to catch all the gags, genius writing ❤😂
I like the fact that in Paul they got to star with the Boss Lady Sigourney Weaver
A top UK cult movie is Withnail and I, its very funny and bleak with some great dialogue.
Fun fact about what you said about a Shawn of the dead game. This film was partially inspired by an episode of Spaced a comedy series Simon and Nick both starred in and at the beginning of one episode Simon’s character was playing a zombie video game but it was playing in real time so it’s a little nod to that
Al Gore's rhythms bought me here and you two are just awesome. Lovely rapport, genuine reactions, insightful commentary and so funny (plus easy on the eyes too ❤❤❤) Shaun of the dead came out when I was 19 and I went back to see it in cinemas several times to catch everything. Before you could jump on socials and find all the easter eggs. It's my favorite of the Cornetto trilogy by far.
Anyway, new subscriber here and gonna check out some of your other reactions 😊
It’s funny because I already follow the Arias and the nation channel and enjoyed your journey discovering FiR (one of my favourite bands).. now I have just had this channel recommended by CZcams, and as a Brit I’m also loving this content. Cheers
in that line-up you had Martin Freeman (from The Office) - Reece Shearsmith (from League of Gentlemen) - Julia Deakin (from I'm Alan Partridge) and Matt Lucas (from Little Britain & Shooting Stars)
I love that you know Matt Lucas as George Dawes. It’s very British niche
So proud
Great reaction guys - my oh my, what a worm-hole you've dug or yourselves! Can't wait to see more!
Ahhhh, Spencer’s jacket, and the lockup, those were the days guys😜😂😂😂👍🏼🍻
A Great film to welcome Halloween with! Thanks fellows!Even better because I know Spencer more a music than film person!
"We're coming to get you, Barbera." Great Night of the Living Dead reference.
"Spaced" would be a good one fir you guys, its a edgar wright, simon Pegg, Nick Frost team up again, FULL of pop culture references. In fact, this film is a spin off of an episode with zombies. I guess they had so much fun that they decided to go big with it!
If you guys liked this, then you’ll like the UK version of the Office, it has 2 people from this (Bilbo Baggins and the girl they called a failed actress), Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and the guy who plays Ragetti in Pirates of Caribbean
liked the easter egg when he was on the phone and ed says we`re coming to get you barbara as it`s a line from night of the living dead
WHAT?!
I could swear you'd both seen this before? lol
Such an entertaining movie. A modern classic.
The World's End is also good, but it does get a bit weird.
I think it's one of those films which gets better after repeat viewings, though.
Also, Simon Pegg was extra hilarious in it. He plays one of the best characters ever created.
You may not have appreciated that Nick was eating a Cornetto Ice Cream (actually a Strawberry flavour), while they sat on the couch. The name of the 'Cornetto Trilogy' comes from a very specific 'Easter egg' in each movie: a Cornetto ice cream, with each movie featuring a different flavour. In 'Shaun of the Dead', the colours represent blood and zombies; 'Hot Fuzz' features Danny and Nicholas eating a Classico Cornetto, with its blue colour representing the police; and 'The World’s End' has its Cornetto moment at the end, when a Mint Cornetto wrapper flies by in front of Andy, and this flavour’s green color represents sci-fi and aliens...
Interesting fact Pete (Peter serafinowiz) is the voice of darth maul in the movies
You need to watch cockneys vs zombies with Alan ford (brick top from snatch) in it
Hilarious also
A 'henry' is a Henry the 8th - an 1/8 ounce (3.5g)of weed, a Janet is a Janet Street Porter - Quarter (7g) and a Louis is a Louis the 16th, 16th of an ounce (1.7g)
Plaese do "Tropic Thunder"! A review/reaction to this very movie by you, gentlemen, will be a gem of entertainment!
The "bizarro" team are all connected to the others. "Yvonne" Shaun's female opposite starred alongside Shaun and Ed's actors in "Spaced", a sitcom directed by the director of this movie.
Martin Freeman, you know, Reece Shearsmith who plays David's opposite is one of the creative minds behinds BBC comedy...thing? The League Of Gentlemen. Tamsin Greg who plays the bizarro version of Dianne co-starred with David's actor, Dylan Moran, in Black Books, Yvonne's mum is Julia Deakin, also a main cast member in Spaced, and Ed's opposite number is Matt Lucas, who also starred in tons of british comedy, most famously Little Britain.
They're all modestly well known in British comedy, or would be after this.
the bit with the other team of people are one from each classic show of the time, spaced, the office, league of gentleman, black books and little britian
I was amazed to find when I first saw this that Shaun lives where I grew up, I work just along the same road where Shaun works, and I live less than a minute from Shaun's girlfriend!
These two are made some great movies together.
If you ever get a chance to watch ‘Spaced’ with was a short series (maybe 3 or 4 seasons) with Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and quite a few other actors from this film, as well as Edgar Wright who directed it. It’s so worth it. You can totally see how movies like Shaun of the Dead got it’s start.
One of the episodes is the reason they decided to try and make this film.
Only two series sadly.
I have been waiting for you guys to watch this hahaha it’s one of my fav movies and Simon and Nick are comedic geniuses, another great reaction video and I just love you two ❤❤❤❤ have you ever seen the movie Paul ? If not it’s another one you should cover haha
I watched this at the cinema at the time and loved it. When I realised the whole screenplay is symmetrical. I was amazed!
Claim to fame - I know 2 of the zombies, they are twin brothers Kevin and Nicky Wilson, and I went to school with their older brother. Great film to react to guys, I love the fact that they were killing zombies to Queen, that is sooo British! 😊
The guy at the back was Matt Lucas from little Britain
Great reaction guys, dipping your toes into movies is the right move. 👍👍
Back in the day we used to live in a shared house in the black area of the local town, and right where the "frontline" was where drugs was sold was a little asian shop. We used to know the shop keeper and he'd tell us which booze was the best, we bought Polish pure spirit cos of him once lol. that bit in Shaun where the shop keeper asks him about beer always reminds me of those times, so accurate.
Hitting like before i even start watching cause i know you're going to love it
You guys are brilliant, more than welcome to come for a few pints in London lads
I always find it hard to pin down why british comedy is different and end up saying that it looks really low brow and simple but the fundamentals of comedy are always well done
This was great but can't wait for Hot Fuzz! The best of the trilogy for me
Always a great reaction from “Spencer of the Daniel”
Awesome love this, please do more movies. Much love from 🇬🇧
Hello long time watcher first time commenter. I am English and not a fan of zombie films but I love Shaun of the dead. So British love it 👍 makes me want to drink tea until it's safe to go out 😅
That's weird! ... After all this time I JUST got the 'We're coming to get you Barbera' line! Du-Oh! :D
One of those films where you see something different each time you watch.
A timeless classic. I love all their films. Wright, Park, Pegg and Frost... Excellent... Watch everything!
Spaced is great, you just saw the characters too.
I love the content you’re doing now, so fun!
I hope you’ll watch these next:
Extras (Ricky Gervais)
What we do in the Shadows (the series)
Black Books
Chris Martin from Coldplay is also a zombie outside the pub, Now you have to read the castlist and watch it again
The shop Sean goes into has been a regular stop for me when driving home (that way) and I need some emergency groceries like milk or bread, because it's easy to park for a couple of minutes outside... Only 5 minutes from where I live in North London.
Story based on real life, Simon carrying his mate through life
It always bothered me that they didn’t decide to make Molotov fire bombs they are in a pub they have sprites in a pub you know the flammable liquids all pubs serve I mean when they left they should have made some to torch the place then escaped through seller the second they started to swarm the pub.
The 'Winchester' was my local in New Cross, south east London. It was turned into flats after they filmed this
Y’know, for the videogame part, that videogame would be on the Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, PC/Mac, PlayStation 2, and Nintendo DS, and it would be published by Vivendi Universal Games.
One that gets better and better each time you say it
Cheers chaps, and I'm glad you've got the british frame of referenece
There is a cornetto ice cream featured in every movie of this trilogy.
I wonder how many people notice this 😉
That other team also has matt Lucas from little britan at the end.
What a choice! Fantastic! Bravo chaps!👏👏👏
Top Reaction seen this film lots of times loved watching it with you guys. Grew up in north london so knowing lots of the places where its filmed and based. Also used to frequent the real Winchester pub which it's based on sadly they didnt use it in the film ❤
you guys are in for a treat with Hot Fuzz and World's End.
Definitely the best performer I have seen in years, he can sing anything and is really a role model for younger singers. Also through him and starting to research you tube, starting to find other good artists. Can't find another Dan, but found good vocalists like Noapology (female, very good, maybe 1 your wife might accept) and Daniela Andrade, Daisy Gray, Bad Wolves. He is starting to broaden my music interests, especially into online singers, which has good singers that is not so well known as your mainline singers. I hope that 1 day there would be a reaction channel that can showcase these singers. But please keep your Dan Tuesdays
One of my favorites love it
The angry flatmate, is the voice actor of darth maul..
Not sure if anyone else has commented this, but the house mate is the voice of Darth Maul. He's a Scouser.
