Honestly this movie is everything you could ever want out of one single movie. Action, comedy, romance, amazing sound track, fucking good car chases. Some of the cars are even fuckin automatic, so you don't see shifting every two seconds. Its a really fucking good movie, I think its kind of sad that its five times harder to make original shit in Hollywood because, when its good, its really good, and its new and fresh and surprising which I can't say about any franchise movie. Well done, Edgar.

[@jackberry]

Jackson Roemers amen to that

[@88freys]

this movie was so insanely good that i don't know how to put it in words. do yourself a favor and go see it a million times

[@monky6520]

theres no hidden meaning, no key details every half a second, no requirements for the viewer to give an insane amount of thought. its just a really fun movie and i love that about it

[@donnalombardo212]

No thank you

[@thisisseanwilcock]

Edgar Wright is one of the best Writer-Directors we've seen so far. Baby Driver is the only film this year I'm truly excited to go see!

[@bon2yan88]

it was an unexplainable adrenaline. 10/10

[@bornnraised5812]

It was utterly brilliant!

[@umpygoodness2369]

I THOUGHT Baby Driver was really limp and weak. And SO many stupid plotholes! ex: when ditching a car and switching to another, do you LEAVE THE CAR DOORS OPEN or close them? (In this movie, they repeatedly leave the doors open, to CLUE the cops that they've switched vehicles. MORONIC.) ex: when doing HIGH-PROFILE crimes, would YOU only wear sunglasses as Baby does, as your "disguise" for cameras etc? NEVER. These facts ALONE prove Edgar isn't very smart. SOOOO disappointing.

[@adil9772]

One of the best movies this year so far, hands down!

[@joppekim]

Baby driver is one of the very very few movies i search up scenes on KZbin afterwards to watch again to spot things i've missed. It is incredible the attention to detail through this whole movie.

[@jacksonohno]

SoulScr3am There's some really annoying tropes in the film but it's so cool regardless and I think it's near my top list. It's a weird film

[@StephenIsTrying]

This is a really good interview, props to the interviewer

[@samsavc123]

Loved this interviewer asking all the in-depth nerdy questions. And, of course, Edgar Wright and Ansel.

[@xad836]

Pfft. Like what? Prefacing the question with "maybe this'll be a little too nerdy" doesn't automatically make it so. Every time he said that it's just basic crap.

[@domremyuk]

xAdamBr You sound really jealous lol

[@SuperMovieLvr933]

One of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

[@herreguda6199]

I wanna see Ansel's audition tape for this, with that improv scene!

[@KKAkuoku]

The first time I saw Baby Driver was without question the most EXHILARATING movie-going experience I've ever experienced, one of those moments where it pays to be present while watching a film.

[@jjgaming9860]

baby driver is awesome, and I mean that its one of those flicks that the more you think about it the more you love it. Edgar wright is a master along with matthew vaughn and shane black. the three best movies that I have seen in the last three yrs are the nice guys, hell or high water, and baby driver. A close 4th in the kingsmen

[@macwatson7227]

I know recent bias may be an influence here, but holy fuck this is the best action movie I've ever seen.

[@farmansiddiqui9279]

Edgar Wright is a genius. End of. I see he made this movie. I watch

[@lueysixty-six7300]

I looove this Edgar Wright character - he's so Anti Hollywood. He's like your best mate that was neither handsome nor ugly, neither popular nor outcast...just a cool dude to hang with. Not pretentious at all. The Polar opposite of Shamalahn & Bay. And I didn't even know it was him behind all these movies I've enjoyed over the years...Scott Pilgrim...Shaun of the Dead & World's End & Hot Fuzz....Baby Driver...

[@westofley]

I've got to say, he is such a great host. Hist questions are top notch.

[@kethanyhudison4713]

We want a sequel of this movie!!

[@JohntheNobleSavage]

Edgar is a genius pure and simple, This movie, the creativity, the synchronicity and harmony between the actors. Perhaps the best movie of the year in that Edgar takes the discipline into an entirely new direction and dimension.

[@AlexLove631]

In my top 3 of 2017 so far. Cannot wait to see it again tomorrow! Edgar is one of the best directors working now. He's just the type of dude who inspires you to make your own shit. Really hope Baby Driver does really well since it's the only new movie this weekend worth seeing.

[@gasol18]

Alex Love what are your first two? This movie looks insane, and I've seen almost everything worth seeing this year, I have no idea what you would have ahead of this at this point in the year

[@AlexLove631]

gasol18, 1. Logan 2. Baby Driver 3. Get Out

[@gasol18]

Alex Love have to disagree about Logan, it was solid, but not in my top 5, most likely top 10. Get Out was better imo

[@SoCloseToToast]

you have taste

[@umpygoodness2369]

well ya gotta tell us your top 5, dude! I can tell you the WORST was the 110% predictable, corny, and forgettable Wonder Woman! Logan was very good, but I want my movies to push the envelope further, like MAD MAX FURY ROAD. Seeing Baby Driver this weekend. Let's hope it's ARTSY!

[@AlexandraO6]

being able to sit there and experience this was such a blessing I miss them both so much

[@AgentMcQueen]

Stunning movie from Edgar, loved it.

amazing interview

[@enigmatic474]

damn, the kid can sing!

[@afonsolucas2219]

Just got to that part!

[@janebarry-fraundorf4623]

He's AMAZING!! Check Ansel Elgort, ("Baby"), out in the new, BRILLIANT, Steven Spielberg Directed, 2021 West Side Story Movie, if you like Ansel here and in "Baby Driver"! He is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL as Tony in it and is TRULY a triple threat!!; (Singing, Dancing, Acting)!!

[@alexam5942]

24:43 that look that Ansel gives. Yes.

[@hmoore9133]

That opening animation was amazing, man.

[@eppurse]

I love how Edgar looks straight up to answer questions Usually people either look up to the left to recall visual things and up to the right to create visions- he stays in the middle- might be why he makes great films

[@vicx05]

Ansel Elgort and Miles Teller are 2 actors I've really been surprised by lately, they can only get better from here.

[@girlenchanted]

lol a year later and mamma mia: here we go again has been released

[@hessu275]

My favourite film of this year

[@ThinkingSpeck]

Brilliant movie, absolutely loved it. It occurs to me, the nearest reference point I have for this kind of music-driven action movie is Lola Rennt / Run Lola Run (1998).

[@rogerclark3229]

Excellent interview - intelligent and interesting questions and great answers. Don't worry about so-called 'nerdy' questions amongst many others. This is an interview by someone who really knows about movies and directors and actors respond.

[@scottbogfoot]

1:41 I remember that shot from the other side, did they mirror that one shot of baby running just for the trailer?

[@Space_Cadet_inc]

yes. it was the other direction in the actual movie.

[@TonyElevathingal]

Cool interview. Thanks for posting.

[@ChrisCarmona]

29:02 .... uh La La Land? or is Ricky more of a Moonlight guy

[@WithLoveThomas]

Chris Carmona La La Land was an homage that was Umbrellas of Cherbourg and Singing in the Rain combined.

[@NESherv]

Yeah, but it was still a completely original musical.

[@matthewmcneany]

I can't get over the feeling that Baby Driver is technically the best film ever put together. Everything in the film is just syncretic. The action and dialogue work like music would in any normal film, the music and colour palette behave like plot.

[@lylehimself9287]

haha, the third guy's question for Ansel just forgot by the interviewer, "one more question, please." no, i think its just everybody got so immersed in Edgar's talking such an amazing director!

[@rogerclark3229]

But Ansel didn't forgot. He answered it when it came to the next question. And he answered that, tooo.

[@pineapplejester7191]

i love how edgar wright predicted mama mia 2

[@StrobeFireStudios]

Film of the year for sure.

[@NCSheriff7]

movie was fun but nothing more. the actionendfight baby vs buddy was overloaded. James Dean as Baby would be more fitting and if the story was a little bit better maybe the best movie ever.

[@paulaward3976]

I have seen it twice in the last three days!

[@fable23]

Ansel looks like a giant next to Edgar. Is Ansel just comically huge or is Edgar just tiny? Or is it both?

I love to describe this film as a feature film long music video, because it's not a musical it's like a story told around music

[@EliFromSaalt]

Só Edgar predicting “mama mia 2 here we go again” this man is a genius

[@chrissnyder2497]

check out the Blue Song by mint royal Edgar Wright directed the music video and its very similar to baby driver plus it has Nick Frost and Noel Fielding in it

[@sinnyboy9317]

I don't want to try and ruin or spoil anything about this movie. I freaking love it!! What Ansel said though about everything coming back around is wrong though. One section of the film doesn't with the introduction of a character played by Jon Bernthal. He comes in, does his part to further the story along, then we never see him again. I wonder if in a previous cut he came back, or Edgar intentionally left his fate open ended for a sequel later on to come back in a big way. I'm just wondering because he played a pretty decent role, and he is a pretty well known name. I know Flea had been in it to and didn't really come back around but he didn't do quite as much. Just curious about it all. Needless to say apart from that one bit the rest of this movie was fantastic, and such a joy to watch. I love Edgar trying something a bit different from his normal style. Just a whole lot of fun and really something worth seeing on multiple viewings, and getting on Blu Ray when it comes out!

[@mateusalves9436]

It does honestly, at one point Doc says that he never picks the same crew twice (wich also explain why we dont see Flea again) and also after they get paid for the first heist Joe Bernthal's character's says something like "if you dont see me again its because i died" and we dont see him again hahaha.

[@babydriverfan1198]

Man what a movie

[@TheSoapyandPhil]

I noticed all the lines from the TV the first time watching the film, without having seen this interview first.

[@mikekasabion]

SoapyandPhil I don't think it's true, there's a bit of diaglogue on the TV about bulls (because a matador is being shown) and when does baby say the lines from Fight Club "And hows that working out for ya?"

[@Fronjo]

matt mendez with the bull, (SPOILER ALERT), it's probably foreshadowing the point when he jumps over the cop car Jon Hamm tries to run him over with.

[@Fronjo]

matt mendez I'd have to watch it again, but I think Lily James says that line about the "How's that working for ya?" When she's asking him about quitting his job as a driver.

[@colinbastian7633]

r/iamverysmart

[@marenkuether-ulberg3311]

Like Akira Kurosawa's films where there is nothing in the scene that he didn't intend; Edgar Wright crafted "Baby Driver" as a complete and complex piece of film art. It's a film that deserves to learn about as a craft, and to watch in delight over and over again. Oh, as a cool insight into part of it -- check out : "Baby Driver / Color Coded Characters" Film Radar (on KZbin).

[@shadow80y]

I could see Edgar Wright directing a Galavant film if they ever made one.

[@alexam5942]

The coffee run in the beginning also sets up for when they kill J.D.

[@hughesthatguy783]

Baby Driver is awesome sauce! A must see :)

[@Gleem1313]

Interviewer doesn't understand what musicals are. Sheesh. Musicals use music to drive the plot and characterization. Musical numbers don't just appear out of nowhere as a soundtrack to the action; it propels the action AND the plot. Baby Driver is such an amazing film, but it is not a musical. The music creates the environment the characters move through perhaps. So good. (And IF it were a musical, the ultimate litmus test is that my husband would NOT see it. We saw it twice. )

[@afonsolucas2219]

Baby Driver isn't a musical, what he's trying to say, and some people agree, is that the movie functions like a musical.

[@chicken0w044]

[@ytsejam58]

My problem with franchise movies is just the frequency. The original star wars trilogy came out in 1977, 1980, and 1983. That's 3 years between each movie. Giving people time to digest what they saw and build suspense for the next installment. The Force awakens came out in 2015, Rogue One came out in 2016, and now The Last Jedi is coming out in a few months! Like... guys. I like a good Star Wars movie but ease up a bit! Same with the Marvel cimematic universe. Just too many movies all at once. It's tiring. I'm getting burned out. I don't care about these characters or this universe anymore. So when a movie like Baby Driver comes out and not only is it a kick-ass heist movie with a killer soundtrack directed by someone with an amazing back-catalogue and excruitiating attention to detail, I will pay ten times over for this movie that whatever marvel or Disney decide to shovel out next. I don't care is Spider Man was a good movie, I don't care about learning about Hans Solo as a kid. and for that matter... did you know there is going to be a Big Bang Theory spin off show about Sheldon as a kid?! What the hell is that? Just franchise the freak out of everything now!

This was a truly great interview. I just wish Gracie put her foot in the mouth here.

[@Longshotsz]

I Love Edgar Wrights films, i think baby driver ranks low on his list (still a good film but nowhere near as great as some of his others) but i think he raises a point of why this film is less consequential with the Harlem Shuffle opening scene (right after the opening car chase). it serves nearly no purpose asides from showing us he isn't 100% a criminal, something it doesn't even do well, it does make baby more likable but besides that and some nice moments for rewatches, the scene doesn't contribute to the film. i think an additional draft could have solved a lot of the story problems, especially in the third act. Btw my Edgar Wright Film Rankings are: 1. The Worlds End 2. Scott Pilgrim vs The World 3. Hot Fuzz 4. Shawn of the Dead 5. Baby Driver 6. A Fistful of Fingers Haven't seen Sparks yet but i plan to

[@evilbritishguy3581]

Ngl, I found myself rather bored by Baby Driver. The Passive Protagonist, uninteresting love interest and flat supporting characters didn't exactly excite me as much as I was hoping. The opening sequence was probably the best part stylistically but after that, I couldn't help but wonder why 'Baby' was making a twat of himself at times.

[@afonsolucas2219]

I kinda agree on the whole uninteresting love interest, but passive protagonist? He wanted to quit the business but was forced into it again, then he tried to escape it! It wasn't easy when he had a shotgun to his face in all times.
