You ALWAYS finish the pub crawl. And never regret leaving someone behind. You honor them with a drink at the next pub. And crawl on. 😂
Them’s the rules!
I am impressed! You guys tumbled to Gary's problems much earlier than most reactors watching the film. Gary's on a suicide mission and the pub crawl is his version of a last meal. One could argue that the film is a tragedy except for Gary's last minute redemption. Of course it cost the whole world for him to save himself - and the world.
He didn't save himself; he might have stopped drinking, but he still had an addiction to romanticize the past to the point of not being able to have a functional life
@@carlalussini I think he just wants to do right this time. He hurt his friends a lot in the past, now he uses their "blanks" to redeem himself in some way. They were stranded here due to him so he probably thinks it's his responsibility to help them live now.
@@carlalussini I would say it's somewhat functional now that he has the purpose of being a sort of pirate king, if you will, just in the sense that he's living a nomadic life of adventure, but with the blanks he took in along the way, as pandyssianrat pointed out. It's sort of brilliant in a way, because clearly, regular society was the square to his round hole. Now the attempt to take his own life has led to a chain reaction ultimately resulting in a circle society for his round hole to fill in at last. The puzzle is finally whole and complete. It's honestly quite beautiful in that sense. A phoenix tale.
Next to "Paul" which is NOT apart of the Cornetto Trilogy but still keeping Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as the main characters, this is the best movie with them.
Yeah, Paul is good. Recommended.
Someone bet me to recommending it - i love the film but feel like the trailer ruined all the jokes for me
Oh yes. Paul next. Absolutely.
I think "Paul" is as good as any of the Cornettos. Loced it.
@@StevenKnowles1995 Definitely, movie ended up being a bit meh for me.
Gary going with the blank versions of his friends was him letting his real friends go after realizing the hurt he caused them.
Hot Fuzz perfected the techniques, but World's End used them to say something; this one is my favorite of the Cornetto trilogy, and I appreciate that Stella picked up on the fact that Gary was doing this as a send-off for being sick, just not physiologically sick. He brought no luggage. 😢
Edit: Sorry, it was Hayley that picked that up.
Way they revealed Gary's bandages from suicide attempts. Brilliantly made scene.
Of note that two superb dramatic actors in Eddie Marsan and Paddy Considine play excellent comedic roles ( especially Marsan, who also had the most heartbreaking speech about being bullied)
A fine reaction 😊😊😊😊
Also there is a cameo from one of the best writer/actors around today, being the brilliant Reece Shearsmith ( League of Gentlemen, Psychoville and Inside No 9) 😊😊😊😊
Allegory.
Midlife Crisis.
Entire Cornetto Trilogy = meta-allegory
Shaun of the Dead -> struggles during early career
Hot Fuzz -> obstacles during career high, peak success, hypercompetence
The World’s End -> end of career, mid-life crisis
We all know Edgar Wright loves his foreshadowing. The giveaway that everyone is a Blank in the villiage is the cars. They're all the same car, a hybrid.
I've seen this at least 20 times and never clocked that detail. Fantastic.
Glad to see you guys back! Wish you all the success with your channel
Since you finished the Cornetto Trilogy I highly recommend the both of you reacting to _Baby Driver_ and especially _Scott Pilgrim vs the World_ as the both of them are directed by Edgar Wright.
We've got a pub called The World's End in Edinburgh, and it makes giving directions to tourists around there fun; "go down past the world's end", "if you get to the world's end you've gone too far" etc.
The twin sisters remind of one of the earliest Simpsons jokes, with Dr Nick Riviera. " If it isn't my old friend Mr Mcgreg, with a leg for an arm and an arm for a leg" 😅
My personal favorite of the trilogy. World's End was a surprise when i first watched it & it's so inspired. People diss on it simply cause it's the newest. It had the best twists, best plot, best characterization. I mean Gary is such a real person. I know people very fucking similar. And the way the guys react to his antics is so true to life.
I just love this movie, great reaction
The depiction of a teenage lads 80's pub crawl is sadly quite accurate, back then they'd start at 16 if you had pubs that would serve you but by 17/18 there was always a few bars and even clubs where you knew you could get served even if you looked young, and then you'd start as a large group and get whittled down and scattered during the events of the evening, the next day was largely made up of conversations trying to work out what happened to who the night before and where they ended up, I'm the same age as Simon Pegg and and woke up in some strange places at that time, in a telephone box, church, on a roundabout and actually inside a town hall with little recollection of how I got there.
I feel like this is the most tragic of the trilogy for sure, but the rewatchability is outstanding, as is it with the others. So many bits of foreshadowing peppered throughout.
as someone with substance abuse issues when he says "it never got better than that night" makes me want to cry.
For me the ranking is Shaun at #1, Fuzz at #2, then World at #3. The first two are essentially a tie and can swap places depending on my mood. I still love this one, but it just doesn't land as well as the others for me. Glad to see you still reacting!!!🎉
Love you both, don't stop ❤
The soundtrack to this film is sublime.
The middle aged men kicking ass against robots was a fun surprise when I first watched it too. Loved it 💙
Shaun of the dead is my favourite. Mostly because I loved the show they did called Spaced and the hype for that film in England when it was released was really high.
Sci-fi horror allegory about Gen X mid-life crisis, the past ~30 years of Starbuckization/Walmartization of society and nostalgia's diminishing returns.
Brilliant analysis and totally agree. Where my Class of 86 homies at?! Probably at either Walmart or Starbucks.
Some of us have entirely given up on the BS goals and milestones our Boomer parents indoctrinated us with and have done all we can to build a full and enjoyable life in spite of them.
@@BouillaBased Your blaming your 'boomer' parents? Speak for yourself.
@@secondchance6603 To be fair, it's a pretty Gen X thing to do.
Whoa. Stella swore.
I love all 3 in different ways, but Idk I kinda love this one for how outrageous it is and how well it still works even still. Its so well done!
This feels like an episode of Doctor Who where the Doctor isn't available.
Been a fan for several years, I had no idea you were continuing reactions so imagine my delight when the algorithm suggested I give you a watch?! Better late than never!
Welcome back ladies! So happy you’ve gotten your own channel.
The 12 pub crawl is just a UK friday tbh 😂
This is a movie about a secret robot cabal from outer space taking over the world and the most unbelievable part is that he managed to get 5 pints for £20
I don't know if i have a favorite, I think the movies are different enough so one van enjoy them all equally.
Having Pierce Brosnan in this film and Timothy Dalton in HF makes me wish that Edgar Wright had somehow gotten another James Bond actor to be in SotD. Just for symmertry.
Sad you didn't edit in the Wtf joke, it's one of my favorites, but great reaction as usual thanks ladies! :)
they also left out Gary's reunion w/ O man's sister in the disableds, Nick Frost putting his drunken hand through the glass, and potty humor w/the voice at the end. Like geeez man..... Fun movie though.
I wonder if these 2 girls have watched 'TROPIC THUNDER' and whether it would survive Hayley's editing process LOL
They left out “king gay”
The warm tones and cool tones of y'all's backgrounds/fits tho
9:09 - I’ve gone back for two High School reunions, but much like Gary’s friends, there’s nothing that makes me feel like I have to return.
Hot Fuzz is my favorite of the three. I didn't get The World's End on the first watch but liked it better on a second watch and after thinking about it more. Knowing Gary's deal from the very beginning makes it a nearly different movie. Plus, there's the usual Cornetto thing of seeing the many, many bits of foreshadowing on the next watches.
I graduated high school in 1991 and was a goth and Sisters of Mercy fan, and there are some bits in the movie that hit different for goths and SoM fans.
Hot Fuzz is the EAAAAAAASY favorite. It's BY FAR the best one.
Hot Fuzz is INCREDIBLE.
Shaun Of The Dead is great.
The World's End is........just good.
I feel this movie... my idenitcal Sisters Of Mercy shirt and black trench-coat... that had to be put away after constantly being called Neo. btw... the other 2 from your old channel were nice, but I tuned in for yourselves! Great to see you continuing
I'm biased to liking zombies, but Hot Fuzz is my personal favorite. I don't mind depressing downer elements in movies, but Hot Fuzz is an air-tight script, a well crafted mystery and excellently handled action that perfectly pays tribute to its action movie roots. I appreciate the nod to Hong Kong action films that The World's End does, and I'm not opposed to beating the final logical boss with words, but I feel like the final conversation wasn't handled very well.
To see where the Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright collaboration all started then the UK comedy series Spaced is a must .. although it does have a lot of 90's UK references you may not get but still is a fantastic comedy series ...
I'm so happy to see you both back❤
Thanks for the reaction! Great set of movies.
Hi Stella & Hayley!😊 Jeez Stella, you caught that there would be a double meaning to the title right away, impressive!👏 See, that's why you are my favorite.😉 You and Hayley make a good pair of reactors. Bill Nighy is the voice of The Network. Great reactions to the final film in the Cornetto Trilogy, Ladies!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 "Hot Fuzz" is still my favorite!🏆
There’s been several reactions where their early “What if” comments have been pretty spot on.
“This is the end”
Next pls lol
Upvoted and commented, love the reactions.
I've been following Pegg & co. Since Spaced TV show... They came closest to catching the vibe of a bunch of house sharing pennyless 90s stoners with that, and continued with the emblem of that through the movies... As it was almost a slogan, when someone mustered the energy to get up, and go to the corner shop: "anyone want anything?" ....(In unison) "Cornetto!"
We basically lived on Chinese takeaway food and Cornettos 😊
Hot Fuzz is my favourite but this movie holds more meaning to me.
Notes
Hot Fuzz akso had a change of genre around the 40 minute mark
Shoutout to Paddy Considine. An amazing dramatic actor and an interesting writer/director. You might know him as an actor from House of the Dragon. Or, if you want to hear him with a decent American accent, he was in a miniseries based on Stephen King, The Outsider.
I always enjoy this film as it was filmed in an area I know well.
I LOVE this film and your reactions are superb 😊 the fact it was filmed in the towns either side of where I live SLIGHTLY added to it but it's more nuanced than Hot Fuzz and I love them both
"it took 40 minutes for the smashy-smashy egg men to smashy-smashy egg men"
Gary's story becomes a little darker as recently Simon Pegg has come out with his own experience with alcoholism and mental health struggles which makes his performance more heartbreaking towards the end. I believe he was in the process of getting sober around the time of filming this and Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.
Me and my best friend were too young to watch this in the cinema when this came out back in 2013 however I recall getting the blu-ray once it got released on home video and laughing all the way through. It wasn't my favourite at first but growing up and learning more about mental health and having my own 'golden mile', I believe The World's End ever so slightly beats Hot Fuzz on a good day in my book.
Yay you guys have your own channel!?
Why lie, I'm just here for a incredible movie experience paired with Stella's equally incredible beauty and charm. #angelface 😇
There's always one.
@@ivankawnartist I can't help it 😞
@@dsc5754 That's just your member talking.
@@ivankawnartist don't say that 😞
I got to see "Shaun of the Dead" months before it came out in the States and, as a big fan of the original "Dawn of the Dead" and other zombie films, and as a huge Anglophile and lover of British comedies/films, I was absolutely gobsmacked at SotD. Out of the trilogy, it's still my favorite although I agree that "Hot Fuzz" is the better film between the first two in the 'trilogy'. This film took me a little while to fully warm up to as its tone was darker, but I really like it now and know it's importance to Simon Pegg as it really dealt with his alchoholism so he put a lot into the script dealing with that. If you want to see Simon & Nick's first project together, which Edgar Wright directed and where the idea for SotD first came about, watch the British TV series "Spaced". So many actors from that series reappeared in all the Cornetto Trilogy films, especially SotD, but all the way through this film, as well. SotD has a load of Easter Eggs in it just calling back to "Spaced" and it's a really fun series and you can really see Edgar's style develop over the 2 seasons. Your reactions were great and I'm so glad you two continued with your own reaction channel.
The line "they told me when to go to bed!" is brilliantly written and acted by Pegg. It is a simple kind of funny statement but it means so much if you think about it. To Gary, it indicates how he lost his agency, his humanity when he was institutionalised following his suicide attempt. He was reduced to a child again, no longer trusted to make decisions for himself.
Hot Fuzz is my favorite film in the trilogy, but Gary King is my favorite character.
The monologue Gary does at the beginning where he describes the original pub crawl when they were kids - it basically describes what happens to them when they do the crawl as adults. O-Man disappearing at one of the pubs, Sam showing up and going into the bathroom with Gary, how it ends with them sitting on a hill under a red sky looking at the town, etc. It's really well written and works for both versions of the crawl.
Hi Hayley and Stella! Love your reactions! Best of luck to y’all on the channel!
I❤This Simon Pegg Movies! One Of Favorites Is Hector And The Search For Happiness & Man Up! Though Shawn Of The Dead This Movie Are Great Movies Too ! Im A Big Scott Pilgrim Fan Edgar Wrights Movies Are Grand! I Just ❤Simon & Nick's Movies!
Love this film, wish it got more love.
Much more depth on repeat viewings :)
7:19 it’s the Granada Mark II of Theseus
Fantastic reaction^^ anyway i hope you two are having a blasted day so far!
Honestly since you watched the corentto series there is another movie with Simon pegg and Nick Frost its called Paul.
28:20 there's a theory that Gary was planning to kill himself after the Golden Mile.
Shaun of the Dead is my favorite because it was the first I watched and watched a dozen times and memorized and as a horror-fan loved all the homages.
Hot Fuzz is my favorite because it's fucking hilarious. By far the funniest movie of the trio.
The World's End is my favorite because it's grown on me the most on rewatches and it has real emotional depth to it.
So there.
I love all 3 of the Cornetto Trilogy, but if I'm asked which I like the best, it's Hot Fuzz. It's the one I choose the watch the most. It's followed by Shawn of the Dead, then The Worlds End. But again, I love them all
happy ending for everyone (even the King!), despite the end of the world! who would have guessed!? 😅
Now you've gotta watch Scot Pilgrim VS The World and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (which is a sequel to Scott Pilgrim VS The World, not a remake).
I wonder if this film was, in some way, therapeutic for Simon Pegg, because he suffered depression.
I've seen the reactions to Shaun of the dead and Hot fuzz on White Noise Reacts already and enjoyed those and I enjoyed this. Love the videos on Hayley and Stella. 👍 I liked Hot fuzz as well.
You’ll be hard pressed to find many that put this as their favourite of the trilogy. For most, including me, I think it’s Hot Fuzz, Shaun then this one
Wait these two are still doing reactions omgggg I'm so happy
I'm british too and it's true we act a different way on alcohol😂
Hot Fuzz is my favorite, I remember seeing one in the theaters and thinking it was ok but it is one that rewatching every few years improves each time, probably because it's about growing up. The blanks lighting up is one of my favorite effects in any scifi.
Hey, cool to see you guys spun off together!
1 Hot Fuzz = I love whudunnit
2 World's end = I prefer sci_fi over zombie
3 Shaun of The Dead = I prefer sci_fi over zombie
and most of people recommending Paul
I agree
My favourite is always Hot Fuzz, but has as been said earlier, Paul is well worth a watch even if not directed by Edgar.
7:34 Yes, The Ship of Theseus. Or in this case, the Granada Mark II of Theseus.
Gary King is the tragic figure of a guy who peaked in high school and has finally realized it. And that's before we get further into the story and learn how deep things really go.
Andy's freakout is my favorite single moment in the movie. Been there. Just not with alien robots.
Hot fuzz is my number one, world's end is second, Shaun of the dead last, but they're all really good
Ahh my favorite buddy road trip, coming of age, martial arts, zombie, alien invasion, romantic comedy movie - best of its genre.
The Marmalade sandwich scene terrified me because you never know this could happen in a horrifying way.
For me Hot Fuzz is my favourite. I love seeing the old people packing heat 😂and you can't beat a fist fight with James Bond 😊
You could watch the Edgar Wright British TV show Spaced next. They pretty much has every cast member from the trilogy in it, and pretty much every theme in the trilogy is in the TV show. It’s just even geekier.
worlds end, hot fuzz, Shaun of the dead. you guys should check out Paul, it's got these two in it with a ton of big stars and is really good.
Glad you guys finished the series of movies. Hot Fuzz it's my favorite of the three. I can see what you mean about the Blanks being more frightening then Zombies cuz they have a goal to seek out the group and they look normal still the idea that a corpse of those you love is chasing you is upsetting but then again hearing what happens to the Empties isn't any better. The huge twist in this is jarring at first but also fun, the energy picks up.
The Worlds End is my favourite, but I'm the same age as the characters & so this hits me with a level of grim melancholic nostalgia younger viewers may miss. Just give it time! 😉
This movie is really fun to watch on an ipad, in the middle of the woods with nobody within 20 miles at night.
Please consider the original Planet of the Apes from 1968 🙏
Gotta love these two.
The REAL reason anyone watched WNR.
Also love this trilogy.
Hot Fuzz … Shaun of the Dead … The World’s End
When I hear about pub crawls I always think, thats not a lot of drinking, like maybe I am missing something or just an alco but 12 drinks over I assume several hours doesnt seem that extreme.
Like the hardest part sounds like the walking several miles on your way to each pub.
This one is my favorite but i'm just a sucker for any alien movie
congrats in making new videos , sad to see the other guys leave , onward and upward .
Hot Fuzz probably my favorite. Shawn of the dead introduced me to Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright so I am very grateful for that!
Love you guys' reactions, if i may, you should watch Paul, Frost and Pegg agai with Seth Rogan. Absolutely brilliant watch! Great work guys, i wish you all the best for your new channel 👍.
Shaun 1, Fuzz 2, World's 3
You have probably seen Forrest Gump already but can you react to it and pretend like you’ve never seen it before. Or starship troopers?
I second for Forrest Gump it could just be a regular reaction
Glad you finally have your own channel. You two deserve it. Quite a flick this one is eh? Think I'll have a pint. Subscribed to help you out.
You guys should watch Society of the Snow. It’s an incredible film, can be very dark and emotional at times, but overall it’s an amazing film.
You guys should watch Spaced if you want more of this trio. Personally I prefer it to at least two of the three Cornetto films.
I don't know if I'd call this my favorite of the "trilogy" but it definitely has the better acting by Pegg and Frost. In SotD and HF Pegg plays a likeable person who is heroic. But in TWE he starts off as annoying and by the end of the film you realize how far this character has fallen and that there is nothing heroic about him. It's really great acting by Pegg that despite how awful Gary is, you still kind of like him (a bit).
And Frost kind of played the Gary role in SotD and then a dim-witted goofball in HF, but TWE he's pretty much the straight man who who has turned his life around since he last saw Gary and immediately knows how toxic Gary being around is to him.
