From Spaced to Hot Fuzz to Baby Driver, Edgar Wright is one of the most original directors working today. His first feature film, Shaun of the Dead, holds up as a bonafide classic. It's not just a great zombie movie. It's an excellent comedy. Inspired by an episode of the 1999 sitcom Spaced, Shaun of the Dead reunites a ton of old collaborators, including Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright himself. Today I'll be looking at one of the main ways Pegg and Wright use repetition to construct a near-perfect script in Shaun of the Dead.

Great stuff. Shaun of the Dead is one of my all time favorites. Could you also consider looking at it from the perspective of being a satire of the Heroes Journey. Everything from assembling an unlikely group of heroes to having to face your [step] father and ultimately defeat him a la Oedipus, it's all there beat for beat.
"this is the tightest comedy dialogue ever"? Do you even Bob's Burgers? most jokes per line of dialogue
Please Review The Basketball diaries(1995) and Titanic
For me the first two movies were about Bill Nighy. After he realizes he was about to die, he tries to explain wanting to toughen up Sean. Then he dies, and I’m “No! I want to hear this.” Next time we see Bill, he’s explaining to Nicolas, how he’s been too good. For me, “Yes I can, I’m the Chief Inspector!” Is a call back. And a glorious one at that.
I honestly believe that Hot Fuzz's script will become a goto for film classes in future years. It's perfect. Every single line of dialogue either advances the plot or sets up a gag, if it isn't doing both at the same time.
It's all for the greater good.
@@LittleMAC78The greater good.
I agree, and I also think an important touchstone that wasn't mentioned in the video is Back to the Future, which similarly doesn't have a single line of dialogue in the first of half of the movie that doesn't have repercussions or an answer in the second half. Shaun and Hot Fuzz channel the spirit of that so well, with it reaching an almost preposterous density in Hot Fuzz. I have to admit, when I first saw Hot Fuzz I thought it was overstuffed and baggy, until repeated viewings made me realise how meaningful every moment if it is. If I have one criticism of it all, I've never thought, "You've got red on you," was such a good line, it's a bit unnatural and shoehorned in to me.
@@LittleMAC78the greater good. O_O
Even the little things like the songs Skinner is playing in his car at the crime scenes he shows up at, it’s all so brilliantly thought out
There are layers upon layers upon layers of callbacks in the Cornetto Trilogy. What Wright/Pegg/Frost achieve in them is beyond hilarious - comedy as art.
I've said it for years, Hot Fuzz might very just be The Perfect Movie. It has absolutely zero, zilch, nilch, nada flaws.
That's absolutely right. Comedies often don't get considered that way, but this trilogy deserves all the praise and respect it receives.
Sadly the 3rd movie wasn't anywhere near the same calibre. The World's End is a boring mess. The other two though, yes the Cornetteo Duology is masterpiece
@@ytsucksnowwiththisrealname1096The worlds end was great too. It was slightly weaker than the predecessors but to call it a mess is objectively wrong.
@@cardrop33 it's not objectively wrong because it's an opinion. You could say it's subjectively wrong. However it is messy by most conceptions. Barely any laughs, Simon pegg isn't the straight man, over egged and boring.
I love the detail where it turns out Shaun is the one that keeps leaving the door open not ed. when Shaun goes to the shop in the morning he leaves the door open and the one armed zombie gets in because of it.
I've watched it loads of times and never noticed that.
This movie is so tightly packed
Well spotted 👍
I missed that! That means I have to go back and watch it AGAIN to see if I missed anything else. Drat!
I love how even though the lines repeat/mirror, nothing feels artificial or stilted. Everything feels like something that would just be said normally. And that's art.
That's truly incredible. To have a line feel organic even though you had to set up a whole scene just to say it is pretty remarkable.
The tv scene always gets me “Literally being, *Eaten alive*
one of the best on-screen duos ever
Most British TV and films and like that, whereas American stuff is very fake and artificial.
*are
Shaun of the dead and hot fuzz are completely untouchable in my eyes
What about The World's End?
Have you seen Cuban Fury? Decent little comedy @@micahjohansson7573
@@micahjohansson7573Less so.
@@micahjohansson7573 *wiggles hand* Eeeeeh.
You could say those movies are... Penske material? ba-dum-tsss
I still think that Hot Fuzz is the tightest of the trilogy, with the callbacks truly perfect.
Agreed. I was in pain for days after watching Hot Fuzz. There are entire salvos where the jokes and references come so fast you've only barely processed one before you're hit again.
It's my favorite of the three. When Timothy Dalton smiles the exact smile as the picture behind him? Goddamn, it kills me every time.
I haven't seen them in ages, but I remember liking the World's End movie the most. This was however like a decade ago, so I should probably rewatch them pretty soon. :)
Interesting. I thing World's End was my least favorite. I'd rank them: Hot Fuzz>Shaun of the Dead>World's End.
@@Wrenchmonkey1 I find the ranking changes with age. When I was younger the ranking was Shaun of the dead, Hot fuzz, then World's end, when I was in my mid-to-late 20's it was Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the dead, then World's End, and now that I'm in my 30's it's still Hot fuzz as #1, but funnily enough I find myself enjoying and appreciating World's end more and more. I expect it to eventually overtake the other 2 with age. I'll probably always consider Hot Fuzz the funniest of the trilogy.
I’ve loved Edgar Wrights comedy since spaced and I love how he juggles the likability of the characters and the comedy. Paired with purposeful direction and well thought out funny characters I can’t think of one project of his I have disliked.
Ever seen Asylum?
I think that his attempt at a thriller with Last night in Soho wasn’t on par with the rest of his production
@@gio1890 Yeah, I saw it lately. Edgar either doesn't have a new dream goal after finally making his beloved Baby Driver. Or he tries to learn something new and temporally abandoned all his signature moves in order to experiment with something new. I hope he gets on the right track soon and delivers yet another masterpiece
@@huornaldarion781 No I haven’t.
@@TheDefiniteArticle_ it's basically the first tv show Edgar Wright and Simon pegg did together if I am not mistaken. It's on KZhead but quality is no good. Jessica Stevenson / Hynes is also in it.
The way Nick Frost just collapses through the fence in Hot Fuzz is top-notch physical comedy
I've seen it at least 20 times, and it's STILL so funny
It's the scene that really made me fall in love with the film, Danny's "woah, cool!!" face and then the flailing *SMASH*, I absolutely lost it the first time. The snappy dialog and cleverly tight editing are there from the beginning, but it's this precise moment when the movie loudly announces to the audience: "Righto, you best strap yourselves in because things might get a wee bit silly before we're done here".
It felt like a Simpsons gag from 1992, that they naively forced upon us as their own, much like all three films
@@pullitupjamie810 You sound kinda subhuman
@@pullitupjamie810 The nitpicking is hilarious. it’s just a dumb fun callback gag. don’t cry!
my favorite dialog-based callbacks are the ones that get recontextualized, like the "cock it" and the "glad somebody made it". there's a specific tragedy to the "i'll stop doing them when you stop laughing" "i'm not laughing" exchange being recontextualized from "i'm not laughing, that joke was stupid and i'm cheekily letting you know that" to "i'm not laughing, these are tears. i'm crying." some other dialog-based callbacks that i only noticed on later rewatches: - pete's "stop defending him, shaun! all he ever does is hold you back!" gets brought back by ed himself as his reasoning for shaun leaving him behind ("all i ever do is hold you back.") - the whole film, every time ed decides to leave to do something, he says "two seconds." every time. at the very end of the movie, after shaun tells liz he's going to pop into the garden to visit him in the shed, he says to himself "two seconds." that ones makes me tear up sometimes. - when liz first breaks up with shaun, she starts her spiel by saying "look, if i don't do something..." and shaun's only response is "what do you mean 'do something'?" and then later when shaun needs to drive the zombie hoard away from the winchester he says they'll follow them in unless he does something, and this time it's liz who responds "what do you mean 'do something'?" amazing film.
I love the writing as he's flicking through channels and the snippets of sentences make one long sentence telling the real story
Ah yes, it is in every Video Essayist’s destiny to make a video about the great Edgar Wright. It warms the heart.
I've watched Shaun of the Dead probably several hundred times since it's release. Along with many of the movies Simon Pegg and Nick Frost star in, I truly believe they are the perfect comedic duo.
Did we just become best friends? 😂😂😂
So true...loved them on Staged going at it with David Tennant and Michael Sheen...
Good lord... I think I've seen this movie nearly 20 times and you still managed to show me new parallels that I'd never noticed before. HOW IS THIS MOVIE SO GOOD?
About to blow your mind. Hot Fuzz Act 3 is entirely comprised of new punchlines for the jokes already made in Acts 1 and 2. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it, but thankfully it’s a beautiful thing.
"We're coming to get you Barbra" I COMPLETELY missed that reference Literally perfect movies.
I thought that was the entire point
Simple, it's not American.
Edgar's comedy is so quick and snappy, with such tightly woven plots and character beats that make for not only some of the funniest films I've watched, but also most heartfelt films too. With the jokes being so quick you pick up on them all, but different jokes hit you harder every time, maybe you'll notice something you missed last time, overall they're bloody brilliant. But hell, the repetition works phenomenally, it's done so well. Edgar Wright never misses. Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Scott Pilgrim, World's Ends, Baby Driver and Last Night in Soho are all phenomenal. He's probably my favourite director cause his style works for so many film genres. Light-hearted low stakes shows, zombies, cop drama, comic adaptation, sci-fi apocalypse, heist and supernatural timetravel, he's so dynamic and seems to hit every beat he needs to and then some. Love everything I've watched of his and look forward to the future
His work is like the best music. You can listen over and over again and still love every second, no matter how many times you've listened
Thank you for sharing that. I'm going to start paying attention to this guy's work. I'll be honest, in the mid 2000s, I looked my nose up most mainstream American/UK movies like the one you mentioned cuz it looked like nothing new was being created (another cgi heavy zombie/comedy/edgy, etc). I need to revisit films of the mid 2000s.
It gives me hoppe to know those abstmurdd anomalioioles
So basically this movie--which I actually rewatched a month or two ago--is even more brilliant than I thought it was. Half of those callbacks I didn't even notice.
One of the most competently achieved productions in the history of cinema. There isn't a single word or frame that isn't *entirely* required, relevant or referential Top 3 British movies of all time - absolute perfection
The easiest way i can describe the comedy in these movie are comfy level of humor. The chemistry with everyone and how the joke lands make these movies timeless classic, i wish to see more Simon Pegg in future. Its sad he is not in the movies anymore as main lead.
We've prob missed out on some classic comedys because he caught the eye of hollywood & he got to be #1 comedy relief. But hes living his dream! Maybe in later yrs that gives him the clout to get his stuff done. Or when hes older & cant act the stuff hes written he just writes pure gold
Shaun of the Dead is one of those movies that always makes me feel better. I've watched it so many times with family and friends it just radiates with that warmth of familiarity mixed with nostalgia.
In film class in 2007, people were asked what their favorite movie was. I said Sean. Everyone groaned because it was a "zombie movie." I said, it's a romance, comedy, horror, action, social commentary, brilliant dialogue and perfect direction. Edit: For those wondering, calling it Sean is an inside joke between me and my friends based on how they changed certain things for American audiences, like "drunk" instead of "pissed." So, change Shaun to Sean and turn it back. It's just a joke.
Thanks for the cool story
@@theredhotrevival8932 You're welcome.
Why did people groan?
@@TY-gj6fbcause they were infected
@@TY-gj6fb They were zombies
God I love Spaced. That whole team is amazing, everything they do is fantastic
I've seen Shaun of the Dead probably 20 or 30 times. It is the most incredibly tight script. Full of foreshadowing, callbacks, double entendre. Absolutely brilliant.
When I first saw Hot Fuzz on its release, I thought it was too long. It's 20 minutes longer than Shaun of the Dead, and generally speaking comedies don't really need to be over 100 minutes. But Hot Fuzz is just so, so packed with these cross-references, set-ups, call-backs etc. that its rewatchability is off the charts and it's now my favourite of the three.
There are so many utterly brilliant visual gags in Hot Fuzz too, like the combination to the Evidence Locker being 999 but my favourite is when we are first introduced to the two detectives. On the wall behind them is a Year Planner chart which is completely empty apart from their respective holidays, emphasising how little work they have on in crime-free Sandford.
@@GorgeDawes That is also one of my favourite scenes, but for a different reason - the way the bin is thrown in Nick Frost's face is just perfection!
I prefer the pacing of Hot Fuzz too, by the start of the third act it just really makes you want to point your gun in the air and scream AAAaaargh
Watching SPACED is kind of like a rite of passage for all university students in the UK. Well, at least it was in my day before tiktok and nonsense podcasts. It''s fcking phenomenal.
Agreed until you turned into my grandad.
Agreed but even Grandad is still cutting shapes in the rave - its impossible not too!
@@somerandomguy2073bloody hoodies loitering in the comment section. Something ought to be done about them, Frank.
@@stalfithrildi5366 for the greater good.
Great breakdowns! I'm sooo glad they didn't remove that 2nd long shot. IMHO that one is key to the identity of the movie and its parallels to leading a "zombie" life, going through the motions. It 100% needed to be in there to parallel the first walk to the store. One of the best zombie movie starts out there.
I think my late husband got a copy of it out of a Wal-Mart bin after someone he worked with recommended it. We didn't know what we were going to watch, other than something zombie-related (which we both agreed was getting pretty old because everything was zombie-related at the time). But we laughed the whole way through and absolutely loved it. It became an instant favorite.
I went and watched this film again last night only because I saw you were uploading this today and I wanted it fresh to appreciate the little details even more.
:D
@@CinemaStix holy crap you actually replied to a comment.
i’ve always thought this every time i watch this movie. no movie has done comedy this perfectly before or since.
Definitely not since. Some like it Hot and The Life of Brian, Dr Strangelove might eclipse it but it is now a comedy great rubbing shoulders with it.
I would like to technically argue with you and say that i think hot fuzz is better. But that really comes down to genre preference,
@@christopherbowers7236 Hot Fuzz is better, I think most people would agree. It has a much better ending.
They are both very good as is the trilogy. Words End isn't bad either. @@christopherbowers7236
Game Night is also a great comedy with a tight script. I keep catching new details upon each rewatch.
It is amazing how rewarding a set up and callback like the ones in Wright’s films can feel. My personal favourite’s from Scott Pilgrim. Scott: I can never beat Nega Ninja. Knives: Don’t beat yourself up about it. *cut to end of the movie, Nega Scott appears, Scott wins by not fighting.
I just love that Nega Scott is actually really nice and reasonable because Regular Scott isn't. Nega doesn't mean they are evil XD
Okay, this is the only zombie thing I might watch because you really sold it.
You will not regret it. I can promise you that.
I'm not really big on zombie and horror/thriller movies myself, but... The original 2 Evil Dead movies - _Evil Dead_ and _Army of Darkness_ - are well worth it. They're in the same vein as _Sean of the Dead_ similar, in that they are campy-comedy "horrors" _(although, Evil Dead was actually trying to be a legitimate horror, but they embraced the comedy with Army)_ Then, for a serious 'Zombie flick', I can't recommend enough both _28 Days Later,_ and it's sequel _28 Weeks Later._ For whatever reason, despite not being too into the genre, I loved those 2 movies! Hence why I figure you may also enjoy these. 😊
@@DUKE_of_RAMBLE Thanks! I accidentally watched 28 days later during the pandemic because people kept talking about it and I thought it's about a real pandemic. It was great. Very well made. Good story. I do have an imagination. And like horror. But I'm allergic to zombies for some reason. For example Max Brooks, what is he famous for? The Zombie Survival Guide series. World War Z and that stuff. What book of his I have read and loved? Devolution. And it's about Yetis. Something as ridiculous as zombies maybe but I liked it and it was well written and I would watch it if they adapt it for tv show or a movie.
You are in for a treat!
@@IAmFJ1 The thing that makes Shawn of the Dead great is it's a zombie movie but it doesn't take itself severely seriously and drag into being dull and uninteresting
I could be wrong, but I feel like this video was also a nod to Every Frame a Painting.
his whole channel is. He picked up right where they left off
@@comment_deleted it's definitely why I watch. I more meant the list of things Edgar Wright does near the beginning of the video felt like a very direct nod to the video from that channel on the same subject.
"My name is Tony and this is Every Frame a Painting" yea I totally felt that as well lol
@@SoulOfGmod That's a good name
SECOND TIME watching this vid. I love how well everything in this is so succintly arranged - its the perfect intro for a 3-hour video essay on what makes the movie great that doesnt need to exist. Great thesis. Great summary. Great abstract. Ace work. Nailed it
this trilogy is one of my favorites. Especially Hot Fuzz, that one is so rewatchable
Cinemastix really is the successor to Every Frame A Painting. I remember the the video from him who made his Edgar Wright visual comedy video.
All 3 films from the Cornetto Trilogy are phenomenal. Yes the worlds end doesn’t get the same praise as the first two and I can understand why, but all 3 are epic.
Dude, that "where can I smoke?" line is one of those hysterical but absolutely legitimate questions.
Edgar weight is my favorite film maker because of this shit. He puts so much love and detail into every single thing he does. Nothing is ever random or just a coincidence.
His storyboarding is crazy
This video is essentially every point I want to make to people when I tell them _"Shaun Of The Dead is like someone made the perfect movie for me"_ (which, sidenote, is crazy since I've always hated zombie flicks until recently) Fantastic work, stellar as always
I love Hot Fuzz and Shawn of the dead. So much nostalgia with these movies, i watched it with my friends when i was still in high school.
I love this channel so much. Really makes me appreciate film more than I already do with each video.
Simon and Nick are the coolest .. can't get enough of their comedy .. love their banter and delivery everytime. ✌
It’s still one of the greatest films I’ve ever seen. It’s the culmination of all that hard work they put into Spaced that comes together cinematically to create a movie that really is a gem from its time. I remember being so excited to see it when it came to the cinema and it definitely did not disappoint. Great video!
Going just off the title of this video and the thumbnail, I already agree with every assertion in this video. Shaun of the Dead is magical. Brilliant dialogue and direction. MasterClass.
Having just watched the video, I still agree with everything AND I learned about some gags and callbacks that I hadn’t known about before. Excellent video (as always). Thanks for sharing this with everyone.
@ClanMcDuck Whoo! And heck yeah. Sharing good stuff with new people-always the goal. :) -Danny
Easily one of my favorite films, and thankfully holds up (near) timelessly
This, in part, feels like a love letter to the DVD extras for the movie. I recognize all of them and they almost feel as nostalgic as the movie.
I adore all of Edgar Wright's stuff man. The cornetto trilogy is a slice of fried gold.
these films, and the people who made them what they are, made me glad I stayed alive for this long. It's truly something golden, and glad I got to witness it with everyone else.
This channel always manages to point out things I've never noticed about my favorite films. Big help while I study for my cinema degree!
Thanks heaps for putting this together. Greatly appreciate you pointing out this great stuff.
I've caught a few of these lately and really like them. Short, enjoyable and enlightening. For me there will never be a better movie than Hot Fuzz. It was the first of the Cornetto Trilogy that I watched. I watched Shaun of the Dead later and although I like it, it took me a couple of viewings to warm totally to it. As I said short with very succinct scene breakdowns.
If you're reading this, you need to watch Spaced.
No. Because I remember it on Channel 4 and I don’t want reminding just how long ago that was!
This channel has reignited my passion in film. Your videos are very insightful and knowledgeable!
This is really great! Thank you! Spaced was really great as are pretty much all of the movies mentioned referenced. I didn't realize that there were so many levels of call backs and references.
Hot Fuzz has been my favorite movie since 2007, obviously, and together with Spaced and Shaun of the Dead it represents so much of what I love about cinema and comedy.
This is one of the very few zombie movies I've ever enjoyed. Hilarious af.
Edgar Wright is pure talent, it's common for the writing or the acting in a movie to steal the show but Edgar's movies are so special for their direction. Everything from the choreography, to the camera shots, to the music choices and the delivery is all a joy to watch :D
Kudos on the video, man! I LOVE the Cornetto trilogy and happened across this vid. Well done!!
Great film. One of my favourite visual jokes not mentioned here was when the group was making their way down a back lane and encountered a group with essentially the same characters in the same sequence.
I thought you were going to make it through the entire video and not mention/reference the TV news clips hinting at the plot, one of my favorite subtle details. Saved it right at the end.
Just watched this again last weekend, and now here you have a video on it. Nice.
An October must.
Shaun of the Dead has always been my favorite of the trilogy. What a great showcase of it! Thank you
I truly do look forward to my Saturdays because of cinemastix uploads
:)
I had this movie on while my mom did laundry in the back room, she ended sitting down and watching the whole movie with me. We had a great laugh together until the end of the movie
I've just discovered your channel today, and I've just watch three straight videos and breakdowns. I'm hooked.
Thank you for picking up the tour h that Every Frame A Painting left behind! Loved that channel and I love this one too.
I love Edgar and hope he gets to make whatever he wants be I really want more comedy movies like these. Baby driver was fun too. But these “low budget” smaller movies are the best of his imo. Give us more Edgar!
I find the fence gag in the World's End (the weakest in the trilogy) to be the best gag, the slightly elongated "On no", being a great full stop to it.
Recently rewatched and i still miss some of these. Reminds me a bit of 'In Bruges' where every rewatch i catch some other small detail/event that affects the outcome in drastic ways.
I seriously need to watch this again, because I missed a lot of these call backs ! I seriously need to rewatch this again because I don't remember half of those outtakes.
Sean of the Dead was genius. My uncle and I went at the opening expecting a horror film for Halloween. What a shock that was.
I love this movie so much. I cam watch it over amd over again, and have done so since I first saw it as a tween well over a decade ago. I showed it to my girlfriend and she just doesn't get it at all. Tragic.
I can't honestly imagine 'not getting' SOTD. My condolences.
@_Wombat I know, right? It's a good thing I love her a whole lot.
One of the best callbacks is in The World's End. When Rosamund Pike tells Simon Pegg "There comes a time when you have to go forwards not backwards." Then, at the end of the movie, during the car get away, she starts off by driving backwards and then forwards, doing the opposite of what she said earlier.
One of my favorite shows... I'm so glad someone has cast some light on this woefully underrated show...
Never gets old. That and Hot Fuzz (Which you should do too). I'm sorry, no... *I'm sorry*
I’m sure I’ll see this again when I do cover it, but Hot Fuzz is just.. pitch perfect. My most watched Wright movie by far.
@@CinemaStix Agreed, I've probably seen Hot Fuzz 20 odd times. It's golden. Thanks for covering SoTD! The *sorry* is when Ed let's rip in his last scene 😉
I’ve always loved Pegg & Frost’s output. Spaced was a classic of its period, 20 something life in 90s urban England distilled to its essence! And SotD and Hot Fuzz were ace too - unlike anything else being filmed at the time.
Great video. Great analysis. Huge fan of this movie, and I learned a few things I hadn't noticed before. Thanks
How do you rehearse comedy that much without completly losing it and wanting to rewrite everything because you said it so much you can't even see how it was ever funny anymore in the first place?
Absolutely LOVE these two together!
Absolutely fantastic breakdown. Shaun of the Dead was on of the few films I bought twice. On DVD and later Blu-ray.
This is still one of my favourite films ever. The visual beats, call backs or repeats are so funny when he does it. Makes a lot of American dialog based comedy look quite stale tbf
Bros channel is literally just stating the obvious.
Amazing analysis of one of my fave films! Great pick
To this day, whenever someone ask me if I want anything from the shop, my first response is always ‘Cornetto’
Thanks for pointing out these details ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such an incredible group of comedic writers and actors. I got to meet these guys in the mid- oughts during a junket for Shaun of the Dead, incredibly nice and incredibly funny.
It’s just so good! Shawn and hot fuzz ate still my top wtf comedy. Just great work, and brilliant writing.
Absolutely loved Spaced. Fantastic characters and hilarious fast paced comedy. Some in jokes with the burning of all the Star Wars memorabilia - subtle but brilliantly observed. Another great effort is "Phone Shop". which came out a couple of years later.
The cast, script and timing are impeccable. I love these movies.
One of my favorite movies of all time! Thanks for this
It's so nice to see tightly written dialogue, after so many more recent comedies have basically just done hours of improv per scene and then just edited it together. Something's lost there, I think.
Hot Fuzz will always be one of my favourite films of all time. Perfect in every way. They're a brilliant team.
I love everything about the cadence of your storytelling.
My favorite part of the shop walk is when he slips after we see the handprint on the cooler!!😆😆 my daughter just had her 20th birthday yesterday and she got a right you are my love tattoo!! 😁😁
I rented SotD just after it came out on video not knowing anything about it. Absolutely laughed and jump scared through the entire thing. I couldnt believe how brilliant it all worked. One favorite part was the channel surfing moment where the entire zombie saga is described by all the different selected scenes on the channels.😂
I love the trilogy so much. Shaun of the dead is such a well crafted movie. rewatched it recently when I am now older and the subtle social commentary and relatability impressed me. Need to rewatch hot fuzz. That scene with the grandma getting dropkicked was so funny I was crying when I first saw it. At worlds end is also quite relatable if your from a boring small town in the uk.
So good! The movie and this retrospective!
This is what won me over to be a huge Edgar Wright fan. My friend forced me to watch Shaun of the Dead and when the whole movie started repeating itself I was IN AWE and obsessed.
One of my favorites of all time and I've never noticed the PlayStation call back in the Bar at the end!! ha ha, great spot!
Love the whole trilogy of films and yet somehow I missed the fence callback reference until you pointed it out lol
spaced is an awesome show! so glad I found it a few yrs ago. loved the characters n dialogue
