Everything GREAT About The World's End!

[@adamruiz3683]

I always interpreted the ending not as Gary abandoning his friends for the Blanks and choosing to stay in the past, but Gary letting his friends go because he realized just how much of a toxic influence he was to them and going off on his own to recover, travelling with the Blanks for some companionship, and possibly because he doesn't trust himself enough to be on his own. The ending would've been a bit too bitter instead of bittersweet if it ended with Gary all on his own.

[@craigmarriott6759]

I interpreted the ending as Gary taking responsibility for the results of his actions. The Blanks of his friends wouldn't exist without his actions and he's guiding and protecting them in a world that hates them for what they are.

[@zanite8650]

A King going off to lead people who need him.

[@shapeshifter7676]

Those blanks are abandoned and left behind, completely alone and hated by everyone, much like Gary himself. So, they're all helping each other. While his human friends are living their own lives

[@oscargill423]

Indeed, CinemaWins pointed out that Gary had clearly grown because he decapitated his blank younger self, something he'd never do usually. Why would he revert back to his old self out of nowhere, especially since he apologised, teary-eyed, on the hill, implying his change wasn't just heat-of-the-moment?

[@drakmendoa]

I interpreted it as something of both. He let his friends go because he realized that he is holding them back from whatever live they want to have, but on the other side he himself could not commit to that and so he kind of stayed in the past and stayed by the Blanks. In his mind it was too late for him to really start a own life so he took that one that was closest to his past.

[@charliefielding2297]

An underlying character trait of Gary's that they show throughout the film is that he is genuinely really smart. He keeps coming out with these speeches that include historical information, uses sort-of Shakespearean language at times, and comes up with arguments his friends (including the actual lawyer) can't argue back to. He tells all the others that Andy is coming, and approaches Andy last knowing that he'll come now that he's convinced the others. Heck, even the scam of keeping the car in Peter's name and changing the address whenever he moved. It just all goes to show that he had so much potential, and could have easily found the same success as his friends. If he didn't develop this mental illness and crippling addiction. It adds so much to the tragedy.

[@TheThoerlChannel]

I think Hot Fuzz is the most finely crafted comedy probably ever, but "It's all I've got" cements this as my favorite Cornetto film. It's so raw.

[@katarzynaw4664]

Yes! I was trying to rank those films in my mind by different criteria an my heart wanted "The World's End" at the top by the reason could not compute. So it became my favorite but not objectively the best. It's the message and personal tone that got me in this one, "It's all I've got" and "I thought we were home" and "They tell me where to got to bed, me!" that pull the strings.

[@boblionia]

Considering the significant hate this one got on release, it's great seeing that with time many people are realising how absolutely genius World's End really is. Not the funniest of the trilogy but by far the most heart

[@montyswift5661]

I especially like how Andy is set up as a rugby player, and as such, he's the only competent fighter amongst them. I feel like most other films would have portrayed him as pretty useless because of his weight, so I'm really glad they didn't go down that road. It's a minor point, but it's appreciated. Also Gary mentions Dutch courage, and sure enough, the more he drinks, the stronger he seems to be.

[@LG-cz6ls]

“they told me where to go to bed” Assuming that's a typo. Being ordered to bed is a very annoying part of being an inpatient, Especially when you know that it's because staff on the night shift want to sleep rather than do their job. And if you go to bed too early, they wake you up to give you a sleeper... And _we're_ supposed to be the mad ones...

Try placing a towel or something over the top of the door so that it doesn't make a racket and they chuck it on the floor. Not all staff are key swingers, TBF.

The scene where Gary explains the car replacements has a dual meaning as well, the idea that you can swap every single component of the car and it still be considered the same car seems like a joke but really it’s a reference to the town and how almost every aspect of the town has been gutted in order for the blanks to gain control.

[@Hermititis]

Ship of Theseus. But also, it happens naturally. Like the idea that you can never go back home, because either home has changed, you have changed, or both. It's why noone but Gary is initially disturbed by all the changes, because the more mundane answer is the more probable...things change all the time. [Edit: Oops, just noticed the video made this point at 23:48 ]

The moment when Gary almost punches the bathroom wall in the exact spot he punched it as a teenager was the most heart-wrenching scene for me. I think the B plot of this movie is far better than the main story. A portrait of a man realising he has nothing to offer his adult self...

[@connor48880]

oh man that’s deep that last sentence…

[@overlydramaticpanda]

An extra thought on the scene where they all prove they're not Blanks by showing scars from past injuries with Gary listing his friends' scars from injuries he caused (just because I've seen people say it's a "plothole" that Gary has a selective memory but can rattle off injuries from years ago): as well as tying into Gary's whole "stuck in the past" attitude, it actually ties back into his depression as well. Essentially, the fact that he exclusively focuses on instances where his friends getting hurt was down to him demonstrates that, while he has a selective memory on a lot of things regarding his friends, what he *does* remember are the times when he actively caused harm and was a danger to other people. And when you have depression, it causes you to focus on the most negative aspects of yourself and your behaviour; you remember things from years ago that literally no one else will remember or think about but where you know you did something wrong or have feelings of embarrassment associated with it. Same for the flashbacks at the start of the film - if you pay attention, the vast majority of them aren't just providing exposition and showing Gary to be an awful person, they're also focusing on Gary demonstrating harmful behaviour, either to himself or to those around him. And since Gary's narrating (despite what he's saying not always matching up with what we see), we can assume the flashbacks are his memories and/or are from his POV.

[@bleachers97]

[@overlydramaticpanda]

@@bleachers97 Oh no, as someone who does struggle with depression and considering the people making the film have repeatedly demonstrated in other films that pretty much everything is worth paying attention to, I can almost certainly guarantee that we *are* meant to read that much into it; it's just one more hint before the reveal of Gary's bandaged wrists and hospital tag that there's a lot more going on than Gary just being an irresponsible git who never grew up. Sure, his friends all clearly remember in broad strokes various awful things he did...but then they're not the ones who describe the injuries and how they got them; Gary "I can't remember what someone told me literally 2 seconds ago" King does.

One thing that was pointed out in another video, is that the flavour of Cornetto you see in each film is a flavour that colour-codes the wrapper depending on the overall theme of the film: Shaun of the Dead - Strawberry - Red - Zombies Hot Fuzz - Vanilla - Blue - Police The World’s End - Mint - Green - Aliens Very typical of Edgar Wright’s insane attention to detail.

I think this movie is an absolute masterclass in how genre fiction and literary fiction can be blended together. It's a wacky, comedic sci-fi film, but its heart is a largely universal story about Depression and loneliness and the inability to let go. It's part of why I think the end is a triumph for Gary--he rejects his past self, and is rewarded with some hint of the past without actually returning to it. He's not a positive influence on his friends--they've drifted apart, they have different priorities and values, and Gary was NEVER good for them except for a few shining moments like we see through the movie. He lets them live their lives, moving on from what he used to have. The Blank versions of his friends are a reminder of that past, but they AREN'T the same people, and narrow-minded Gary King getting sober to defend these 'robots' as their leader and protector--an actual positive influence--is a second chance to do things right. I saw this movie before either of the other two Cornetto trilogy, and I think it absolutely stands up on its own and is just as emotionally poignant

[@laotasurfs1110]

Something nobody ever points out in these types of videos: In the last shot of the movie, Gary's not dressed like a post-apocalypse cowboy. He's STILL dressed like Andrew Eldritch from Sisters of Mercy! I love this movie so much. It's endlessly funny, great music and action, Gary is a painfully nostalgic character for anyone who had a similar friend (a lot of us knew a charismatic dude in high school who seemed like he had so much potential but peaked as a teenager and mostly just pisses everyone off now), and it's got an appropriate melancholy to it the other films in the trilogy don't have. It FEELS like the end. I wish people could appreciate it. It's so full of feeling.

[@danielwhite181]

This film didn't sit with me when I first saw it 10 years ago at the age of 15. Now 10 years has passed. Having me and my friends all gone down our own paths and grown, there is something now weirdly bittersweet about this film that resonates with me waaaaaay more than it used to.

My favourite is Gary's line about the "Five Musketeers" as he says "They missed the trick having three because they could have killed two of them off and still had 3 left." This is exactly what happens in the movie with the gang losing Oliver and Pete to the blanks. Perfect Foreshadowing. There's also a line where Gary mixes up "The Good Companions" and "The Trusty Servant" which i believe is Edgar Wright foreshadowing Oliver's conversion to the blanks as obviously one of his good companions becomes a trusty servant of the network.

As someone who has been hospitalized, who has done the group therapy and all that, the lack of control, the impulsivity, self-hatred, insecurity and self-destruction that Gary imbues throughout the movie is something I can relate with heavily.

I LOVE this detail, on my most recent rewatch I noticed while Gary lies a LOT, he can’t look people in the eye when he lies, like in the beginning when he lies about being at Peter’s house he doesn’t look him in the eye. When he lies to Andy he doesn’t look him in the eye when he brings up his mom, but when he says he was his best friend he looks him directly in the eye, he can’t beat lying to people when he’s looking them in the eye, he loves them too much.

With Asteroid City out, I would love to see you cover some Wes Anderson movies. The Grand Budapest Hotel is one of my favorite films of all time, so that would be a great start IMO. Love the breakdowns, it's always fun finding new things to enjoy about movies I love or didn't care for all the same. Also the "fuck off back to Legoland" quote is one of my favorite movie quotes ever.

[@jordanverbeek5121]

20 Seconds To Comply is sheer brilliant music choice. You've got a punchy beat and it subliminally refers to the "choice" the Network presents to Gary.

[@JimiPain]

6:07 Not only are the light fixtures different, there also is a poster for the school disco dance and the disabled toilets has an Out of Order sign

[@bananaleg82]

0:16, I think I disagree with the idea that that line had a double meaning, I think it would have been written way differently if that was actually the case. Gary wouldn't have pointed out that that specific night started out like any other if he was talking about the night the movie takes place, because that night was very different from the routine he fell into after his friends went away

[@angelicbeast7793]

Oh my god, after several rewatches I finally understand that the 12 pubs is also a subtle nod to 12 step programs.

[@HotCherry]

Shaun of the Dead, in my opinion, is one of, if not the best written comedies of all time. I've watched it I don't know how many times. However, despite it not resonating with me on first viewing, more recently I feel significantly connected to The World's End on a level I didn't think I could. For the first time in my life, I've struggled with my mental health, and since that struggle started, I've watched it at least once a week, and I'm genuinely excited to watch it again this weekend. I get goosebumps every time Gary screams, "it's all I've got!", and I notice something new in the dialog and blocking every time! I truly believe this film was ahead of it's time, or at least ahead of my time anyway.

I love any movie with these 2.

[@FlamesAndShadows]

Love how it portrays men of different levels of (in)compentence, non of them professional, perfect or equally brave, fighting for their life. Just something so refreshing to see something approximating reality, each bearing a mark of their personality and prior experince, all lovingly shot, vs camera either oogling sluggish stage fighting or changing cameras constantly to hide stunt doubles who stand in for star's badassery.

*"Paul"* is a movie from 2011 starring Pegg and Frost, and I feel it deserves a mention even if it isn't part of the trilogy, because going on a roadtrip with ET seems ..fitting. 😅

[@true_equal]

the double edgar wright upload, you love to see it

[@viridian5maureen853]

This movie had a few more points to offer if you were a Sisters of Mercy fan. For example, I was the only person in the theater who laughed when the choir opening of SoM's "This Corrosion" played to announce the appearance of young Blank Gary. The thumb holes was also a goth thing so it didn't ping for me that he might be hiding something with them until it became obvious. Gary isn't frugal but between his personality and his addictions I think it'd be hard for him to hold down a job, and his poverty probably reinforces even more his being stuck in the past, because he can't afford new things and is reinforced in really loving his old stuff anyway, so there. Like, living on the margins, it's easier to replace an old car's parts piece by piece than the hassle, expense, and credit checks of buying a new one. When the Network basically tells Gary that it gave humanity iThings, Gary doesn't even know what it's talking about.

[@ninjabluefyre3815]

"We've got to get out of here." "To the car?" "To the Trusty Servant. Oh, it's the Good Companions next. I always get those two mixed up." Such a good summation of where Gary's mind always is.

[@WinstonSmith685]

Just one thing, the banknote that Gary holds up at 18:14 is a £20 note, not a £5. The £5 note is green/blue, the £10 is orange, the £20 is purple and the £50 is red.

[@oliverklosov5153]

11:56 I believe the phrase "oh crumbs" was in reference to a catchphrase from Danger Mouse, a British animated series from the 80s.

[@nicolepowell5470]

Best line for me was when Gary says shut up you big lamp to the network. Gary is holding a £20 note not a £5

[@edsp666]

*So.* I have such a mixed soft spot for this movie and gary king as a character, I adore it for usual edgar-simon-nick-ness, wit, heart and everything else but gary as a character hits *so* painfully close to home. When I watched it for the first time in the cinema and saw the bandages on his wrists and put all the things theyd built up with him together- it felt like my stomach dropped through the earth. I think because he's someone I so easily could have become had things not gotten better in my life, it was like looking at an alternate version of myself, except ruder and with a bit more bluster. I caught myself crying without even realising I'd started, and after my friends laughed and said they thought his story was sad but not enough to cry over and I played it off as me just crying easily over things, they didnt know at the time that id just had a *totally* different experience in the theatre to them 😂 so even though this film gets called the worst of the trilogy (which means nothing as theyre all amazing) and even though gary remains a jerk (and thats important) its a movie and a character that I hold with so much softness in my heart.

[@KaydenCraig-z8p]

Double upload from CinemaWins is a true blessing. As a recovering alcholic, this movie hit the spot..

[@kerutlj]

Thank you for your positivity and sharing your love of movies! 😁

[@calvinsnapemusic]

I need to go re watch this film, love the video. Just have to point out, in the 5th pub he holds five fingers up but that note is £20, not £5

[@Omnicharlizard]

one more win is the amount of small details you dont notice because theyre so natural, In the crossed hands Oliver unbuttons his jacket for the upcoming fight

[@DaniAl-pb8ln]

A double cinemawins video is a good day

[@LeDameMarciana]

Hot Fuzz is the best Cornetto film objectively but this one has been my favorite one since it came out a decade ago. "It's all I've got" had me crying harder than I did at the mom death in "Shaun," AND the soundtrack of this film is INCREDIBLE. Rewatching it now nearly 10 years after, after so much has happened to the world and to me, makes me love the film even more.

[@ApolloHypnosQueerestGods]

When i watched this the first time when I was twelve, a couple of months after I had first watched Sherlock, I bawled when "John Watson" died and mulched. Now that im rewatching it as an adult, with a couple attemps under my belt myself it means so much more to me and a lot of it is super effective. Studying some of the cornette trilogy in Film so it's a thrill to come back to it; fantastic film

[@kiadayo]

Seeing this video pop up today got me to finally watch this one after seeing the first two many times! My favorite little detail that you didn’t touch on was the seventh pub having a “Two for One” (2+4+1=7) special.

[@mindwarp921]

And for some reason the Dead Meat channel wont make a kill count on this in fact they actively make it a point to say this movie isn't horror while making kill counts for mortal kombat games

[@anwarbojorges]

It's my favorite movie of all time... like the Hot fuzz video, are you doing the Cornetto trilogy again?

[@anonymoususer2756]

I love all the little moments where a character says something metaphorical and then a moment later what they say happens literally. “you gave me the sign” - a minute later Sam gives Gary the “out of order” sign “you’re not gonna wriggle out of it this time” - it immediately cuts to the headless blank wriggling out of Gary’s arms “there is nothing between me and Gary King” - then one of the twins appears between Sam and Gary “we are going to get to The World’s End if it kills us” - just before Peter is killed Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz didn’t have a lot of that type of stuff. I wish there was more stuff like that in those films.

[@joetjaden5921]

I am a little behind everyone as this just made my watch suggestions and if someone else made this observation, my sincere apologies for bringing it up again. But one of my favorite things about the details they put in this movie is that each pub has subtle hints as to which one it is in line. The first bar has several ones on the wall, the second has twos, the third is threes, and so on through the movie. Just a neat way to help you keep track of where they have progressed to.

[@Blub_blubby]

18:14 That's not a fiver. It's actually a £20 note. You can tell because a fiver (£5 note) is always green. a tenner (£10 note) are orange and twenty's are purple. On top of this, you can kinda see the "20" in the corner of the Queen's head, and she is surrounded by purple compared to that of the old fiver they're using where it would be blank around her head instead. (no colour)

[@ItsFreakinHarding.]

11:30 Watching drunk Andy, aka Nick Frost say "So F**k it!" And just Pummel into the door, break the glass and not even care had me laughing so freaking much!!😂😂 when I first got this on DVD I must have rewound this scene like 10 times laughing harder every time!

[@gracereads2917]

That final shot of Gary saying "They call me the King" and his Blank friends lighting up like a Christmas tree is always a win in my books, and such an iconic moment with him holding Excalibur

[@ItsFreakinHarding.]

10:45 I have watched this movie several times since its release and I never, ever noticed that when they're in the bathroom talking during this scene, that there were people doubling them in the background! Cuz it's not a mirror, it's just an open frame! I guess that's how they got away with no camera reflecting.

[@Therealkae2]

I watched this on my birthday last month i luuuuve this film

[@kryhaj]

saw this vid, and i am so glad i decided to pause it, watch the movie first, then go back to and play this. it is soooooo goooooooood. both the movie and this video.

[@gregmeyer9595]

Love this series of movies, Simon Pegg is a unique actor and the blend of comedy and action is perfect. Would LOVE to see either (or both but I am not even close to greedy, just wanted to give you more than one choice for my personal request) Little Miss Sunshine or The Full Monty Forget everything you know or heard and watch them with a clean slate focused on mainly the wonderful acting and relationships between the characters… both with make you smile, laugh and cry. Put aside the odd sexual overtones, they’re incidental, the soundtracks and scripts are phenomenal and ALL the acting is spot on. Low budget independents and made good money based just on the feelings they create. Thanks!!!

[@kingfleckshabbadoo4734]

One of the reasons that Gary is recovering from his depression at the Morning After is that he discovered a sense of purpose. He even mentions that he is going on a quest.
