Fun fact: Nicholas' "girlfriend" is played by Cate Blanchett. They thought it would be hilarious to cast a beautiful woman and only show her eyeballs. She did it on condition of being uncredited and donated her salary to charity.

[@PierceArner]

So for some background, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost started out with Edgar Wright as a director back in a series called *Spaced* and Edgar Wright's stuff is absolutely JAM-PACKED with little references. There's a whole version of the show, where there are subtitles just to call out what the references are. This is why his work in *Scott Pilgrim* is just as heavily full of those things in every single scene. When it comes to the cornetto trilogy though, they all go way back, and there's a sort of family-like familiarity between them on their projects where they have a very particular flow that is just... it's why they are what they are.

[@jsmarty1]

This is definitely where Edgar Wright refined his style. I love how every beat of this movie is basically a parody of modern/90s action movies. It's so entertaining

[@soulstice94]

I love all of the lowkey sound cues like the cash register cha-ching when Danny hears about Nick being stabbed, the sound plays because he's immediately interested in his experiences. There's so many tiny details like sounds, dialogue, cuts, and placements that just add up into such a fun and fantastic film

[@TedBrogan]

Same director did Baby Driver. Lots of similarly interesting sound design aspects.

[@christopherdraper3692]

I love this movie so much. from the writing/direction to the heavy weight casting. Martin Freeman, Bill Nighy, Jim Broadbent, Olivia Colman, former James Bond Timothy Dalton plus cameos from Cate Blanchett (Janine) and Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson as the man dressed as Father Christmas

[@davidmcmaster2083]

I love the bit where Danny and the 3rd cop translate the incomprehensible local dude who has an accent so thick, it takes 2 dudes to translate it for Angel. When I was a kid, my folks went to Ireland and stopped for directions. They could not make out one word of what the local told them. They just thanked him and walked off.

[@christianwise637]

This is not only my favourite of the trilogy, it's also my favourite comedy of all time. The characters are really fun, the action scenes are great, the editing is fantastic, and the script is genuinely really clever.

Timothy Dalton just looks like he was having possibly illegal amounts of fun being in this movie.

[@tarmaque]

Two bits of trivia: 1) the mustache was his idea. He showed up on set with it and Edgar Wright loved it so much he wrote it into the movie. 2) Dalton is such a class act that he showed up on set even when he wasn't being filmed. In case you didn't know, there are a lot of times when only one actor in any given scene is being filmed, and whoever else's lines in the scene are usually read by a production assistant or someone. The other actor is rarely there. Not here. Timothy Dalton showed up _every single time_ to do his lines, even if he wasn't being filmed. Half the time he was there even if he wasn't in the scene. He just enjoyed the production that much. He is _the man!_

There’s even more brilliance in the Shaun of the Dead script. Adding to what you mentioned about making the plans... the plan Nick says in the bar ends up describing the entire movie. Have a Bloody Mary in the morning = Zombie named Mary in their garden Have a couple at the at the princesses = they pick up the bickering couple with shaun’s gf(Princess) A bite at the Kings head. = they pick up Shaun’s parents where his step dad is bitten at his neck/head Then bam! Stagger back for shots at the bar The group pretend to be zombies as they stagger back into the Winchester bar where it all ends with them taking shots...at the zombies with the Winchester Also when shooting said zombies, the dialogue and camera work directly mirrors the dialogue and video game camera work of the zombie game they are playing in the beginning of the movie

All good except for the game. While the game does have zombies, it’s nothing more than a nod at gamers. Same when they mention Tekken 2. On a side note... The level nick plays does match the position of the zombies in the end, and also, that in the last shot of the game, his character is almost dead. And in the zombie shootout, well, Ed gets bitten. Maybe it’s a stretch, but yeh.

If you haven't seen Scott Pilgrim vs The World then that should ABSOLUTELY be on your list, it's incredible.

Seldom have I been this excited for a KZbin post! This movie is beyond belief. It is so well written and executed, maybe with the exception of some overly quick-cut shaky cam towards the end, but otherwise so good! Now to watch the clip ;)

[@Topcaller]

Also, the pure fact that no one died in the big shoot-out. It's all paper work to clear it up. So good :)

[@maddiehess6468]

Favorite movie of all time! I screamed a little when I saw you'd posted this lol. Knowing how you appreciate good writing, I think you'll love it!

[@nickthepeasant]

Woop! Cornetto Trilogy continues. The winning duo of Pegg and Frost with the cream of British actors, get in (as some of us still say).

[@kimm6589]

I'm so glad you enjoyed this movie as much as I do! I think it's the best of the cornetto films imo. The small town stuff gets me every time. If you grew up in one, you KNOW. :D

[@walterlippmann6292]

this movie is so good. top to bottom. love the camera work and editing

[@GaunteroDimmm]

Finally started down the Cornetto Trilogy!!!! Glad you’re doing so well!!! Keep it up!!

[@jeffreymoore6742]

Need to watch the movie “Paul” with Simon Pegg

[@erikhopkins9548]

I agree she needs to do that one next

[@taklampan650]

Yes, great movie

[@jmo3457]

Agreed! Paul is well done!

[@jameswilson8433]

The Big Guy!

[@erikhopkins9548]

Paul is the best movie with these 2 in it

[@ChronosTachyon]

I *loved* the fact that Nick Angel originally had a lady love interest in Sandford, but they wrote the character out and gave all her lines -- unmodified -- to Danny Butterman.

[@28starwarsfan]

The editing in these movies is masterful. Entire videos have been done on how amazing it is.

[@GriffinPilgrim]

For reference "The Fuzz" is old British slang for the police. Like calling them pigs but meant somewhat less offensively.

[@GamesandNonsenseUnleashed]

Actually, linguists know for certain is that "fuzz" was first used to refer to policemen by criminals in the United States during the late 1920s and early 1930s.

[@GriffinPilgrim]

@@GamesandNonsenseUnleashed Really? Interesting. But it certainly caught on in Britain too and seems to have lasted longer there.

[@GamesandNonsenseUnleashed]

@@GriffinPilgrim Yea the hats there seem to have changed les than here.

[@Tyrconnell]

There's a 1972 Burt Reynolds/Rachel Welch picture called 'Fuzz' about police in Boston. So it was still current in the US then. Guess it went out of style more recently.

[@direnova6284]

We (Brits) got that from the US, a long time ago but it was theirs first.

[@marcuscato9083]

Man, I actually envy someone getting to watch this for the first time. Pure gold.

[@maurabewsmedia1688]

The Devil's Rejects (2005) Movie what movie name anyone plz yes next time

[@dungcheeseMORK999]

Whats amazing is there are some well known faces in this like Cate Blanchett's cameo as Jennie and Rory McCann (The Hound in GoT) as Armstrong.

[@soulsimplistic]

I love Nat Bangs. It's like the mood is a lot more relaxed and usually funny AF

This trilogy is supreme. And I cannot even with the "they're annoying. They'll die." You have no idea how right you are XD

[@glennluxon8195]

Wooo so excited for this one!

[@easthalldesignmiami]

My favorite is the 3rd one (World's End) - great films! Cheers

[@ThatBlakeCampbell]

It’s really under-appreciated. I think it’s the funniest and most well written of the three.

[@jamescampbell8910]

"He's turned into a full-blown badass, he's got a toothpick and everything." Horse: "uh... what?"

[@dracoargentum9783]

Horse: Nay, Nay...

[@Sabaition]

They play very different characters in each movie... They both have really great ranges actors. Being that they do a lot of comedy they're super underrated.

[@alexle6105]

Another comedy recommendation, and my personal favourite movie of all time, is Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I believe it's Robert Downey Jr's first leading role after his last drug drama but before Iron Man. Him and Val Kilmer have a great dynamic with a lot of very fast intelligent and quick witted dialogue, the writing for the movie is great and it's just a fun spin on a modern LA detective movie.

[@rogerfarley7823]

If you are digging Simon and Nick comedy, then Paul has to be on the list!

[@zairac2564]

I probably laughed as much watching your reaction as originally watching the movie. Maybe, someday copyright holders will realize that you're providing free marketing for them. I'm sure lots of people buy or rewatch movies after being reminded how great they are by a great reaction like yours.

[@tildessmoo]

The thing about the Cornetto Trilogy is that the comedy remains consistently amazing, the quality of the filmmaking goes up throughout (which is amazing considering you're starting from "Shaun of the Dead"), and the writing gets more sophisticated with each iteration, going from a zombie comedy with some social commentary and great character arcs, to a biting commentary on social contract theory, to an exploration of existential philosophy... all hidden in some of the most entertaining movies ever made.

[@ToastyJunebugs]

This is my favorite movie. I think I've watched it 10+ times and each time I notice something new! Edit: I like how Angel rides back into town with two shotguns strapped to his back on a white horse and you say he's a badass bc he has a toothpick!

[@Glaiceana]

Fastest I've clicked on a video haha, one of my favourite films!

[@Alexeya13]

Same. Saw notification. Click!!

[@SylviusTheMad]

Q: Is this movie a parody? A: Yarp.

[@chadfalardeau5396]

I think it's more of a lampoon, since it references a genre rather than a specific movie

[@HenryFurnell]

I am so chuffed you enjoyed this film, still watching it now it makes me chuckle.

[@Shadowman4710]

This is pretty much a perfect movie. There are no wasted scenes, and it never lags. It sets everything up, gives you the appropriate clues.... ...and then blows the entire thing to Hell. It's sheer brilliance.

[@nopewmopan]

My favorite Nick Frost characters: Santa Claus in Dr Who and Gus in Truth Seekers.

[@WhiskyCanuck]

Truth Seekers was really good. Sad there won't be a second season.

[@ThatBlakeCampbell]

Probably Capaldi’s best episode tbh.
