The intro is so well done, they’re not zombies, just people walking through their day feeling & acting like it.

There are lots of line and joke call-backs, like the video game Ed plays at the beginning mirrors Shawn shooting Zombies at the bar later.

Ames, as a companion to the Cornetto Trilogy, I highly recommend the short comedy series that started Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright's careers... "Spaced." It has a similar vibe to "Shaun of the Dead," "Hot Fuzz," and "The World's End." Some of the same actors show up in the TV show as well.

I feel like Cornetto trilogy hits differently at different ages. Shaun of the Dead is great if you're in your 20s, when you are at that age where you're an adult but you're not sure what to make of your life yet. Hot Fuzz is about being in your 30s, where you made your choices but you are wondering if you missed out on anything. The World's End is when you're in your 40s, when you are set on your path and you wonder if your best days are behind you.

[@dimanemchenko1047]

Verging on spoiler territory ;) but so, so true!

[@MarcoMM1]

Great reaction Ames like always, love this movie! The plan that Ed comes up with at the Winchester after Shaun gets dumped by Liz is actually a beat-for-beat summary of all the events that will go down the following day: "Have a Bloody Mary's first thing (the first zombie they encounter is named Mary), a bite at the King's Head (Phillip gets bitten in the neck), couple at the Little Princess (Liz is the princess, David and Di are the couple), stagger back here (they pretend to be zombies); bang! Back at the bar for shots (the big shootout in the third act). Watching Edgar Wright's films multiple times is pretty much a necessity due to the sheer amount of foreshadowing and hidden hints he hides in the script. And the movie never actually reveals the cause of the zombie outbreak. Just as the news reporter is about to say it at the end, Shaun changes the channel, thus leaving it a mystery to the audience. And another fun-fact: Zombie godfather himself George A. Romero loved the film so much that gave Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright cameos as zombies in his 2005 film Land of the Dead. Shaun of the Dead remains the first of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s “Cornetto Trilogy”. This was based on Cornetto ice cream, which came in three flavors or colors: red, blue, and green. Shaun of the Dead represents red (blood), Hot Fuzz represents blue (police), and The World’s End represents green (aliens). Keep up the good work.

The thing is that Sean's stepdad did tell Sean this all the time while Sean was growing up, but Sean couldn't hear it, because he couldn't get past the death of his father. He hated his stepdad for marrying his mom, because it was like proving forever that Dad would never return. Sean's stepfather was a good man who tried his best to do well by Sean and his mother. In the end it took his death for Sean to realize this, probably just like it took the death of his father to realize his father had loved him too.

What I’ve realized while digging is that Hollywood marketing really sort of sucks now, the fact that I, and so many of my friends, have never heard of 75% of them I’ll offer as some proof of that. I don’t watch broadcast TV, don’t have any streaming subscriptions, (other than Prime, cause, Fire Stick) and don’t hang out on social media (except for YT). They can’t complain about an audience not watching when nobody knows they exist. What I don’t get is why Hollywood doesn’t leverage YT reactors, there are many that have huge followings, seems like an absolutely wasted marketing channel. And not only do they not leverage it, they actively try to put them down and copyright strike them.

That is "Snake Hips" as described by Ed earlier. "Always surrounded by women". Amd of course When you see him again he's surrounded by women...zombies. mostly at his hips. The video game at the beginning of the movie is a zombie shoot em up game and the dialogue used by Ed and Sean is repeated verbatim when they are in the bar shooting actual zombies, complete with same rifle movements they used in the game earlier.

The Cornetto Trilogy spawned from a British TV show called Spaced which was written by and starred Simon Pegg and Jessica Hynes (who played Yvonne), and was directed by Edgar Wright, Nick Frost who played Ed was also a main character. The show was a trippy, surreal sitcom about two unlikely friends and flat mates who would get themselves in to odd situations that always ended ina homage to Hollywood movies. Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End aka "The Cornetto Trilogy" are a sort of spinoff from that show made by, and starring, the same folks.

"Even undead, you still have to work" - yeah, you definitely understand zombies in storytelling. This, right here, hits at the horror in the roots of zombie/zombi stories that part of the fear was the idea of eternal slavery without even the promise of rest in death - kind of amazing that it crept in as part of a gag montage in the epilogue, and the fact that the "mobile deceased" employment/enslavement industry subtly mirrors the way people hand-wave being complicit in systems of oppression on the basis that they didn't set up those systems personally ("Hey, we didn't cause the zombie outbreak" "Hey I've never enslaved anyone")...pretty great satire, intended or not
