It took me years to realise that they could only jump over that hedge because mr Webley had cut it down leading to them being there in the first place 😔

[@hoilst265]

OH MY GOD. I knew the foreshadowing is insane in this move, but jeez, I never caught that one on dozens of viewings. Thank you.

[@hoilst265]

Also, speaking of foreshadowing: every single vital point - and some of the minor ones - of this film is foreshadowed. Except the guns that justifies the giant shoot out at the end. How did they end up in Sanford? *shrugs* "Found 'em."

[@halo-1995]

It also took me years to realize that Dad told me about him! Mr. Webley is Mr. Filch, the caretaker of Hogwarts. 😂😂😂

[@IAmNumber4000]

The double translation makes me laugh every time 😂

[@hoilst265]

It is truly one of the greatest gags in comedy. Welcome to England, new accent every 32km.

[@jimtaylor294]

​@@hoilst265More like on every street 😂

[@louismcteggart]

Honestly one of the best British films ever made

[@agoodday9247]

Ha! 😂 I never noticed the reversal at "sea mine". God this is such a great film, Edgar Wright you beauty you

[@chrismassey7783]

It's a pile of shit

[@bathy85]

could you explain

[@Khiule]

I think he means the revesal of the translation. At the start it goes webley - nick frost - simon pegg. At the sea mine it goes nick frost - mr webley (i forgot the names) That would be my guess

[@phillipbath7125]

Thanks

[@1532JJ]

I always liked the detail at 1:40 when Webbley runs behind the metal container just to get out of the shot.

[@Markunator]

I don’t see anything there?

[@sid2112]

@@Markunator Go to about 1:30 and you'll see him running to his right.

Oh yeah, not a good spot to get away from an explosion haha

[@AlphaQHard]

@@sid2112 Well, OP posted the wrong timestamp. Thanks for correcting it

[@idontknow164]

I dont know why he couldn't just run out of frame. Unless the actor physically couldn't.

[@falconwind00]

Mr Webley is a fitting name! The Webley Revolver was the standard issue sidearm for the United Kingdom and throughout the British Commonwealth during the Boer War, WW1, WW2, Korea, and saw police service abroad up to the 1970’s. Originally chambered in .455 Webley, and later .38 S&W. The Webley Self-Extracting Revolver is so-called because opening the top-break mechanism operates the spring loaded extractor, automatically ejecting the spent casings from the cylinder.

[@IsaiahRichards692]

He has guns from across the ages! Old ass muskets, breach-loaders, 1910’s bolt action rifles, ww2 era sub machine guns and some FN Fal’s!

[@samalvey8168]

"That's right (DONK!) Deactivated!" I don't know what gives me more anxiety. Him whacking the sea mine or the fact that he's whacking it with the butt of a shotgun that could go off by doing that.

[@TheTdw2000]

Most firearms can't go off unless the trigger is actually physically pulled. The idea of a gun going off because it's dropped or hit hard enough is (mostly) a Hollywood thing.

[@matthederplawman3327]

Thankfully its rather unlikely it would go off by hitting the base of the sea mine. The supposed spikes act as pressure plates which naval ships would hit as they sail through the minefield detonating the mines and destroying the vessel. The early iterations of mines were never really intended for anti-infantry use. That being said just because it shouldn't go off doesn't meant it can't and whacking unexploded ordinance still poses a danger.

[@caspertoo]

I can tell you that one of the things they do great, amongst all of them, is the portrayal of having to do reports and evidence after all the cases.

[@mikester4896]

I like his style of shooting all the boring bits with quick cuts like an action movie, just adds a whole level of comedy on top of what would be a boring scene of filing paperwork or doing the line ups which keeps the movie grounded too. It's pure genius filmmaking.

[@hoilst265]

@@mikester4896 Not to mention he dual-wields pens, like a John Woo character...but for bureaucracy.

My personal favourite of the Cornetto trilogy Stupendous cast witty dialogue Edgar Wright's superb direction I really can't praise this film any more 😊

Love this film. ‘Every one and their mums are packing round here’ Like who Farmers Who else Farmers mums 😂

[@masterzombie161]

It’s funny to think every interaction Nicolas had or arrest it caused their deaths.

[@animathehallowed1380]

Filch is having a strange retirement 😂

[@callmedorian]

David Bradley is brilliant in this scene. Mr. Webbly is such an underrated character in Hot Fuzz.

[@patmcbride9853]

Except for the sea mine, it's about the right size for a Texas firearms collection. Now, if we had mined the southern coast with those, they would be in more than a few southern barns.

[@nicktechnubyte1184]

1:42 and there's the hedge they were talking about

[@gabrielm6849]

Walder Frey is back

[@richierottweiler923]

Mr Webbley a true old school soldier

[@MasterMoyle]

If only filch had access to this lot in Harry Potter they would have dealt eith Voldemort much earlier than how long it took.

[@Rydonattelo]

What a cast

[@georgeealien]

5:07 Earlier in the film, Nicolas tells Danny that "traffic collision" means it might not have been an accident, so Danny is hinting his mother's death wasn't an accident with the new term he's learned. That's cool.

[@alfredhadesworth9253]

I always thought that it was more like, it showed us why Danny calls it a traffic accident, because he didn't want to think of anyone at fault for his mother's death, all at least his mother.

[@jaydenritchie1992]

bend one of those pins, breaks a vial, electrolyte makes a battery, battery makes a circuit and then sudden the circuit fails and the battery and the whole mine. german one had a timer, if it didnt touch water it didnt complete the circuit and triggered.

[@piziskewl]

MR. Webbly is an American at heart.

[@octaviusfooks7194]

1:20 - Imagine if when he hits the sea mine, it actually blows up in their faces

[@ONEFATE9]

filtcher almost blows up a shack HD

[@alexwieland-ducher8792]

I never noticed that Mr Webley hides the wrong way around the blue chicken coop facing the barn where the explosion was supposed to come from. Also that his name is Webley, the name of a famous British pistol.

[@tombranch2261]

Sounds like he is from the same region as Gerald from Clarksons farm.

[@liamcollins9183]

Both in the West Country. This film is set in Gloucestershire, and Clarkson's Farm is in Oxfordshire.
