    One interesting note is that during one of the audio commentaries for the film, Quentin Tarantino himself says to Edgar Wright how annoyed he was that Edgar managed to pull off a realistic way of two giants fighting in the middle of a city, which Tarantino admitted he DESPERATELY tried to think of a scenario where he could do that for Kill Bill but couldn't think of how to do it realistically, Edgar obviously pulled it off during the fight at the end in the model town :)

      DriscolDevil Yes, he did. I don't know if it's on all versions of the DVDs/Blu Rays but it's on mine and it's a very good audio commentary. Both Edgar and Quentin are obviously huge film buffs so it's very interesting to hear their thoughts on the movie and how it compares to a lot of movies that 99% of the world have never heard of as well as more famous ones :)

    My totally favourite 'easter egg' about Hot Fuzz is how one of the first scenes basically repeat the whole plot outcome and makes one of the best parallels in cinema I've ever seen.
    When Nicolas finds out about his transfer he ask for chief inspector (somewhere in London) who rather honestly explains to him that they tranfering him because he makes the rest of the police look bad as he's too good and by this he's ruining the image of the forces. Nicholas react by saying something like 'With respect Sir, you can't just make people dissapear' and chief inspector answers cheerfully: 'Oh yes, I can. I'm the chief inspector'. Then we find out that people vanish murdered in Stanford because they ruin the image of the 'Perfect village' and all of this is supported by the local chief inspector who believes he has the authority to kill people in order of maintaining the perfect village image. While Frank may seem to be evil it turns out there is not so much difference between him and another chief inspector.
    Love the film

      Also, recently I've noticed that in the scene between the finale action begins there is a poster of Romeo and Juliet on the window of the little shop. It features the two 'semi-professionals' from the dramatic society. Looks like it wanted to make their own Romeo and Juliet to show they can do it better then Mr. Blower :)

    DS Andy Wainwright: You do know there are more guns in the country than there are in the city.
    DS Andy Cartwright: Everyone and their mums is packin' round here!
    Nicholas Angel: Like who?
    DS Andy Wainwright: Farmers.
    Nicholas Angel: Who else?
    DS Andy Cartwright: Farmers' mums.
    The *FIRST* person Angel beats up when he rampages is a farmer, and the farmer says:

    And his mum shoots at them with a shotgun!

    There's a lot of attention given to the firearms some of the villagers use in the finale. Danny's father, Frank has two Colt revolvers when he appears in the pub, a reference to his western getup in the fair scene and his family photo. Joyce, one of the inn owners, uses an MP34, an SMG that was used by the Germans in WWII and is most likely a reference to the "Fascist" crossword joke.

      @@DoctorQuackenbush In name, yes. In practice they had a lot more in common with fascist regimes than socialist ones. Hitler himself tried very hard to distance the Nazi party from Marxist socialism, stating, "Marxism is anti-property; true Socialism is not." He even had to attempt to redefine the word 'socialist' in a speech in 1922:
      "Whoever is prepared to make the national cause his own to such an extent that he knows no higher ideal than the welfare of his nation, whoever in addition has understood our great national anthem, 'Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,' to mean that nothing in the wide world surpasses in his eyes this Germany, people and land, land and people - that man is a Socialist."

    Not a "something you never knew" thing, just something kind of amusing. I live in the town/city (smallest city in England) Hot Fuzz is filmed at and some people might know about an art exhibition thing some cities do where they get people to decorate statues of an animal representing the city. A few years ago Wells did swans, and someone decorated a giant swan with Hot Fuzz screenshots of the characters chasing the swan. After the statues were taken down, the police station bought the hot fuzz swan and placed it in the centre of the driveway as a big focal point. 2.bp.blogspot.com/-trZ_1oXPWgA/UEJ8v_T1seI/AAAAAAAAKME/nBulJi4OLgA/s1600/DSC01319.JPG

      ***** We voted to leave because we have problems with the free movement of immigrants, the money we send off while getting nothing in return, as well as the overriding nature of EU law, which is enacted by people who are not democratically elected. Once we've enacted Article 50 and left the EU, we can negotiate trade deals without EU intervention, and we can have an influence on the world stage without relying on the EU to get our desires out there for us.
      Being in the Union is clearly an asset over in America, but over here, we've come to the conclusion that it was a burden. And the fact is, leaving the Union is a different matter in either system; the EU has legislation for withdrawal (Article 50), but American Statehood is permanent.

    One I've noticed in all 3 is that in Shaun of the Dead both characters are heavy drinkers. In Hot Fuzz Nick's character is a heavy drinker and Simon's character doesn't drink until after some convincing and in World's End, Simon's character is a heavy drinker and Nick's character isn't until after some convincing. Not really subtle but I thought it was pretty funny the they switched the characters around.

Often the UK police are called up to deal with an escaped swan or a rowdy one blocking the road. I see it on Facebook at least 5-6 times of the year. The best one was when a swan was sitting in the middle of a road and the police put cones around it. I am not even joking!!!

      Don't think that's gonna happen. Hot Fuzz is one brilliant example of comedy, there's not a lot of review material there. The Critic usually reviews movies that are bad or don't work, and makes fun of them because of that. Hot Fuzz just works perfectly, and the more you look into it, the more amazing it gets. Edgar Wright's attention to detail is astonishing. Every gag is meticulously planned out for maximum effect. The visuals are neatly laid out, the sound is designed for perfect timing, the editing is over-the-top exactly in the right amount...
      I got sidetracked. Bottomline, the movie's too good for a Nostalgia Critic review.

    The Aaron A Aaronson joke is a reference to the Simpsons episode where Marge tells Patty & Selma that she's pregnant but not to tell Homer. So they get the phone book and start with Aaron A Aaronson (in the joke they are one of only two people they call one has a Z surname - but they are the two biggest gossips in town).
    The odd surnames are all ancient professions in the UK. So Thatcher (roofer), slater (also roofer) were a nod to this.

WTR was definitely entertaining, but Doug has done better, and I think as the creative mind behind all this, he sees it more than his audience does.

      So here I am, reading every comment under this video to find hidden gems that NC might have missed, but his audience picked up on. And sure, some people remarked on the fact that the fictional town's name is the one used in a lot of British police training exams, but other than that nothing really interesting was mentioned.
      And then, at the very bottom of the comments. The very last one, in fact... Yours... Yes, I noticed those walkies were all pointing radially inwards, and my subconscious must certainly have picked up on the similarity to a clock face, although my consciousness was probably too busy processing the storyline to even notice. But I would never have made the link to "around the clock surveillance"...
      Whereas usually, obsessively reading through all the comments in a thread only leaves me with a feeling of "well, that was a perfect waste of time I could've otherwise spent learning a language, an instrument or otherwise bettering myself", this time there was a payoff at the end.

    cunt is not that bad of a word in the UK

      It is. It's still one of the worst.

      Used to do lots of work with Aussies and was called cunt all the time. And my UK freinds ask me why we are so touchy about the word.

      David Carnahan Brits using it often doesn't mean it's okay to say. It means Brits are sexist.

      No it doesn't, it means they are a different culture and the word means a little different thing there. Like fag... You thinking they are sexest makes you look like an ignorant fool. But I expect that from more and more of the US now a days.

      David Carnahan You probably don't want to use fag as an example because Brits are also homophobic. Same-sex marriage wasn't allowed in England until 2014 and it still isn't allowed across all of the UK. Here, it's been legal across the whole country for over a decade.

    I've probably seen this film 20 times and EVERY time I watch it I find a new joke hidden in it. It's almost unbelievable how great this script is.

    The actor who played Tom Weaver, the head of the Neighborhood Watch, was Edward Woodward…who famously played another police officer, Sergeant Howie, in the original Wicker Man.

    I heard that Simon Pegg’s character was supposed to have a love interest but in order to streamline things they cut the character but gave most of her lines to Nick Frost completely unchanged.

    They're not at all bad videos, and definitely not boring, but after watching several WYNK my mind begins to wander. In this case, I'm wondering what your thoughts are on the TMNT video that got likes and comments removed?

    Glad to say I knew all of these. When this movie came out on DVD I watched so many times, and even though Shaun of the dead is my favorite movie, I can rewatch this over and over, and it's still always just as good.
