Hot Fuzz

Postby Immortalicide on Mon Feb 26, 2007 10:19 am

Went to watch this film last nite, and laffed all the way through it, funny as fuck. Anyone else seen it??? The village it centres around is sooooo like Stratford upon avon, where my girlfriend works, it was uncanny. Great spoof film with loads of totally OTT bits in it.

Fucking brilliant! Wasn't quite what I expected, being a massive Shaun of the Dead fan, but if anything it was even greater because of it. There were so many brilliant moments, and they got the serious moments so spot on as well. Nick Frost as always was fucking great, so was Timothy Dalton, who would believe it!

I think Nick Frost is hilarious! I haven't watched Hot Fuzz, but for once it's a film I'd be up for seeing.

I've been watching sketches from the sketch show Nick Frost is in called Man Stroke Woman... some really funny stuff :lol:

I've just been making my way through Spaced series 2 on the old ntl (or now Virgin fucking central) on demand feature, I've got one episode left to watch, it's fucking brilliant! I love the endless film references (there's a great Pulp Fiction one at the beginning of one of the episodes), and Nick Frost really is an absolute legend of a man. The one where Simon Pegg's character gets sacked for having a difference of opinion about The Phantom Menace with his manager is probabaly my favourite so far ("You weren't there at the beginning! You don't know what it was like!" genius). But the Robot Wars one with the legendary Reece is also amazing. What a great programme!

I saw some of Man Stroke Woman when it was on BBC3 last year and didn't find it that funny, but the one's with Nick Frost in them were always quite good. And the Nathan Barley man was also good! For more Nick Frost shenanigans, you should check out Danger! 50,000 Volts. It's a brilliant thing, jamie introduced it to me last year and I loved it immensely. Pure greatness indeed!

If you're fans of Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, this is a link to a radio show they both did.
You can download all the episodes.

Oh yeh they are both cool blokes. Big Train is also an old classic. The first series had a cast of geniuses - Simon Pegg, Mark Heap, Kevin Eldon, Julia Davies and... that other woman.

Man stroke womans ok, but doesn't get close to Big Train.

I know what you mean, Hot Fuzz wasn't really a laugh-out-loud (sorry, i mean LOL) hilarious film, it was more smaller sized chuckles all the way through, unlike Shaun of the Dead, which I can't ever stop laughing at all the way through when I watch it. But there was something else about Hot Fuzz that made it amazing. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it was just really really brilliant. I'm going to see it again this week, and I imagine it will be even better the second time round, now that I know what to expect and realise it's nothing like Shaun of the Dead.
