[@sardomaitland8156]

+magmablock Wouldn't you want to watch the movie first? :)

[@zachmorley9566]

Nah. You're missing the point. They're great because they've been allowed full control of their work. Splitting one movie among two big dogs would ruin the movie.

[@somberlight]

as long as tarantino ISN'T writing, should be fine.

[@Jo8Nathan]

for example the new star wars

[@AGameNetwork]

Zach Morley But he has a co-writer on almost all of his movies INCLUDING the cornetto trilogy. I'm not saying that these two should make a movie together I'm just arguing that saying they shouldn't definitely isn't "missing the point". I will say though while they maybe could co write their individual visions would probably be too hard to mesh together.

[@RowanJColeman]

I want Edgar Wright to do a Western. Or at least another Western.

[@JustAwesomeT]

Rowan J Coleman Props for remembering his first Western.

[@AceIOMUK]

JustAwesomeT A western with Pegg and Frost :D

[@suburbanbliss85]

+Rowan J Coleman He has, it was his first film and it's hilarious. A fistfull of fingers.

[@RowanJColeman]

suburbanbliss85 Hence why I said "another Western"

[@stalfithrildi]

+Rowan J Coleman I always consider Hot Fuzz a Western (or a South-Western, at least); a Lawman arrives in town and cleans the place up, at one point riding in on horseback!

[@kevtb874]

Tarantino is such an enigma to me. He is a cinematic encyclopaedia and yet I can't imagine him sitting still for 2 hours. I imagine him to be the kind of guy who chats throughout a movie and yet he still seems to absorb everything.

[@Tipzyyy]

Kevtb87 the opposite. if he's watching a movie for the first time, i believe he's one of those who will kick you out if you sneeze during dialogue

[@TheGoodChap]

He does know absolutely everything though. One thing that really made me stop and think for awhile because it's sort of poignant and I'm surprised I never thought about it but theres an interview with Tarantino on some late night show where he mentions he spent his whole life becoming a film encyclopedia where you had to watch every movie ever and memorize the director, actors, dps, etc because without the internet there were no books you could get to know every role an actor was in or every film a director worked on so he could give advice if someone liked something and wanted to see more like it Quentin could do that. But he was sort of lamenting that with IMDB it made it so anyone can know everything and he spent his whole lifetime perfecting that! Its got to be a weird feeling for him

[@williamshakespeare9815]

​@@TheGoodChapI guess it's the same for a lot of people when technology improves. For e.g you can get amazing photos and videos on your phone now, which is sh*t for people who spent years learning ISO, f-stop on DSLR's.

[@TimeLimey]

These two need to do a movie together in some form.

[@josefjahnke]

[@JujuAdams]

+Stanley Kubrick Bam.

[@TimeLimey]

+Stanley Kubrick Oh yeah, forgot about Grindhouse. Good call.

[@hardcorecordock]

+TimeLimey it's a shame it was only a trailer. But was he under tarantinos or rodrequiezs' direction?

[@TheGoodChap]

+TimeLimey they need to *write* a film together

[@obscureentertainment8303]

I have made it my mission in life to watch every single movie that is mentioned on this commentary.

[@philipviele]

+Obscure Entertainment So it's your mission to watch every movie ever made?

[@TheGoodChap]

+Obscure Entertainment It's funny. I saw this movie in a local theater in 2007 and became completely obsessed with it. I bought the film and started watching every special feature there, and the commentary with just Edgar Wright on it. When I saw that for the second time I decided to take notes and write down every single film Wright mentions in his commentary and watched almost all of them that summer. Still need to see all the rest of the ones brought up in this interview but I'll be watching them all year. Me and my friends used to watch this movie literally every single time we hung out, fell asleep to Hot Fuzz probably as many times as I've seen it around 100 times I'd guess. 23 now and I feel so old and nostalgic thinking about it or watching it again.

[@Rotinaj37]

+TheGoodChap I watched a lot of them too, and passed out many times with this or shaun of the dead on in the background. Love this movie so much. I wish I could be involved with making movies like this or something, good film is like magic.

[@philipviele]

is Brannigan any good?

[@EXHUMEnCONSUME]

Shut the fuck up.

[@ezrasky3761]

Its cool that Quentin is a fan of Edgar... and vice versa. Wouldn't it be awesome if Quentin wrote a script that Edgar directed? I know Quentin is a stubborn stick when it comes to writing a script for someone else to direct now a days..but damn it would be classic.

[@TooCooFoYou]

I'm sure Tarantino and/or Edgar would love to work together, but it's understandable if Tarantino doesn't want anyone to direct one of his scripts, especially after what Oliver Stone did to Natural Born Killers.

[@vicentemorales2533]

Ezra Sky From dusk until dawn was written by Tarantino and directed by Robert Rodriguez, so he would be open to do something similar with Wright

[@jacklame7464]

Ezra Sky they should write a film together

[@user-mq6kd6mf1v]

What if I told you Edgar Wright is the front runner to direct Tarantino’s Star Trek movie. Told you here. Too bad it won’t ever happen. Simon Pegg would also be a Key co writer. I don’t have sources so don’t believe me though

[@sunnyside4624]

I'm not 20 minutes in and my mind has exploded by the number of film references. These guys are bloody encyclopaedias!

1:05:00 "Like" I used to say "inny" a lot, which is an abbreviation of "Aint he" which is an abbreviation of "Isn't he" which is an abbreviation of "Is he not". Which is used colloquially for "Thou art" 11:11:50 "Kind of"

[@venimusvidimus6684]

... this is a thing? Brilliant.

[@thevoivod]

Awesome commentary. But what I take most from it is: "But it's funny, like, sort of, like, y'know, kind of, like, if you talk to kind of, like..." and "Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!"

+The Voivod This exactly how I talk.

[@gocsa]

+The Voivod Yeah, they're two great filmmakers, and both are pretty intelligent but so not well-spoken it's almost shocking...

[@stephengleason3487]

gocsa it's not that they're not well spoken. It's that their brains are faster than their mouths. If that makes sense. Everything they're saying is coming off the top of their heads. The language center of the brain needs a chance to catch up. It's honestly pretty common amongst creative types. You'll hear people start sentences six different ways before landing on the way they want to say it.

[@hyperworm3004]

Surely not being able to get a sentence out would mean the mouth was faster than the brain? A fast brain should be able to structure sentences even quicker than the average person. Maybe they just don't have well-developed language centres.

[@Jack-yx5wf]

For anyone else wondering this (and was so slow they couldn't figure it out), this commentary doesn't need to be (and imo shouldn't be) listened to while watching the film. Like, you can hear the film in the background of them talking here so you *can* play it alongside them talking, but overall this is just a great interview/interaction between two directors with encyclopedic film knowledge. It doesn't add to the film. they're just riffing and talking about what pops into their heads (which doesn't usually entail the particular scene happening at the time). Still great, though!

[@allasFCB3]

I'm half way through it and...when do they start talking about hot fuzz?

After the second half: "So like, if it's, like, sort of like, it's kind of, well like kinda umm, it's like.. sort of this thing where like....." Et cetera, there's plenty more but that's a QUOTE! Anyway, I really liked the video, thanks for the upload. I Love both of these Hyper-Referencial, pretentious, ORIGINAL directors.. They hardly talk about "Hot Fuzz" at all

[@coalhalo]

The DVD versions of Edgar Wright's films usually have several commentaries. So if you want to hear Edgar actually talk about Hot Fuzz, pick up a DVD/blu-ray copy of it and you'll have about a half dozen to choose from. And if you want to hear Edgar and Tarantino talk some more, pick up a copy of his tv series "Spaced". Tarantino is on one of the commentary tracks as well as Kevin Smith, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and the rest of the main cast.
