Post by: TakingBackSunday on August 24, 2013, 02:12:00 AM: yeah forgot to mention this in the movies thread, but Frost is absolutely the shining star of this movie. Emotional center, most powerful acting force in any of the scenes, as well as being the source for all the physical humor and action scenes. Dude was a fucking beast in the fight scenes.

his depressing disappointment when the cornetto wrapper drifted away in the wind :lol

great great movie. I'd put it Hot Fuzz > Worlds End > Shaun

Post by: headwalk on August 24, 2013, 11:59:56 AM: frost was just about the only thing i liked about this movie. the rest kinda felt like a depressing BBC3 sitcom mixed with a doctor who episode.
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: demi on August 24, 2013, 01:02:52 PM: Would agree that the rest of the crew beyond Gary and Andy were just kinda there. But I enjoyed their company and struggles.

Post by: Polari on August 24, 2013, 01:34:01 PM: Still good but the weakest of the three. I thought Frost was good as the straight man but Pegg not so much as the funny man.
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: Tucah on August 24, 2013, 04:06:40 PM: I can't rank it yet but I liked it a ton. Frost was so good as the straight man and although I was iffy on Pegg at the beginning he worked well in his role by the end. I can't wait to see it again.

Post by: TakingBackSunday on August 24, 2013, 04:17:48 PM: you're placement of this movie among the others is highly dependent on what particular techniques and themes you've liked in the past Wright films. Wright covers a lot of different areas of specialization in filmmaking, and there are plenty of things some people prefer over some other ones. If you preferred his work in Hot Fuzz, you'll probably like this more than Shaun. If you enjoyed Shaun the most, you'll probably rank this below Shaun as well.

have nothing particularly meaningful to say. it was a pretty entertaining movie. great jokes, good story and style.
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: nudemacusers on August 24, 2013, 04:24:18 PM: Wait, are these meant to be a trilogy of a sort? I've only seen shaun of the dead.

not literally. just a trilogy of movies with the same actors/director/writers
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: nudemacusers on August 24, 2013, 04:38:43 PM: Ah, ok. I thought it might be some weird alt-universe type thing.
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: TakingBackSunday on August 24, 2013, 04:43:08 PM: its a trilogy in the sense that all three movies touch on the same themes and conflicts and ultimately very similar resolutions to said conflicts.

oh and that all three have cornettos in them

Post by: Polari on August 24, 2013, 04:50:36 PM: If we're doing this, Hot Fuzz > Shaun > World's
Title: Re: the world's end is so good
Post by: Joe Molotov on August 24, 2013, 06:22:41 PM: So good. :aah

Nick Frost for Best Supporting Actor or the Academy is a bag of cunts.

This is me, as well.

Hot Fuzz didn't do anything for me. It was okay, but not really amazeballs like Shaun had been.

Movie made me want to drink beer, as my Untappd stream will attest, as will later streams.

It reminded me a little of From Dusk 'Till Dawn , in that the first half and second half are essentially different movies.

Shaun=Fuzz=World's
