Love Shaun of the Dead! Couldn't get into Hot Fuzz for some reason, but I like the last one a lot.

I love when the creator chimes in on videos like these and is like... "I wasn't thinking about that at all, but sure!"

Hot Fuzz is one you'll like more each time you watch it imho

i didn't really like it too much the first time i watched it but now i think it's pretty close to perfect

[scriptedending]

That's definitely possible, I've only seen it once! Will have to give it a rewatch at some point.

I second HF being one for a re-watch!. I could honestly rewatch it over and over and still cry laughing, but wasn’t too keen on it at first.

lol, I love The World's End, and I know I'm largely alone in that. But Simon's performance is so fantastic.

It's really good, I think! It's been too long since I've seen Shaun of the Dead, whereas I've watched The World's End more recently, so I can't really judge between those two (whereas I know Hot Fuzz is my favourite), but I do know I love it. I thought Simon was great in it, they all were. I was really happy that he played the "fuck up" for once and Nick played the straight man.

My husband put this on last night. We don’t watch it like the others so it’s a special treat when it is on.

When it first came out I felt it was "meh" but rewatched a few weeks ago and loved it. I think I needed to add on 5 years to my age to connect to the desperate attempt to reconnect with your youth.

The order that they came out. Shaun of the dead had that amazing ‘ Don’t Stop Me Now’ sequence. Hot Fuzz was pretty good too, and world’s end had so much hype around it that it kinda put alot of expectation on the movie.
