"Nothing like a bit of girl on girl!" - Oscar Winner Olivia Colman.
Haha, right? Love her so much.
Well... pretty much the plot of The Favourite...
Worst joke and delivery in the movie.
Nah thats Bev off the car insurance adverts
@@mikemath9508 what do you mean? seems pretty par for British humor.
The Cornetto Trilogy is satire of 3 genres, zombie horror, mystery thriller and sci-fi. Nick and Simon also starred in Paul, a comedy about a pair of comic fans on a road trip who meet an alien named Paul voiced by Seth Rogan.
Paul is a great movie 🤟🏻😂
Don't forget that in all three movies there's some random scene where the wrapper for the Cornetto ice cream cone shows up. I believe it's a satire of director/writer cameos in movie franchises. ;)
Simon also stars as Scotty in all the new Star Trek films, and has been in the last 4 or 5 Mission Impossible movies, along with lots of other films. He and Nick are also in a new show on Amazon called Truth Seekers, that they both co-created.
нυмαη ƒєllα, totally right. It is also 3 stages of life where the character is not adjusted to like:
- Person in his 20s who is late to grow up.
- Person in his 30s who is wed to his job.
- Person in his 40s who wants to relive his teenage years.
@@jksgameshelf3378 I watched Truth Seekers, good show. More Star Wars fan than Star Trek though, Simon was in The Force Awakens as the junk dealer too.
Also "Michael "Yarp!" is the hound from Game of Thrones.
Also the old guy with all the guns is Walder Frey, aka Filch from Harry Potter :P
@@generic_sauce And the police chief is Archmaester Ebrose from series 7.
Oh yeah, and Sgt Fisher played a couple of roles in GoT too.
And skinner was James Bond
Nicolas' ex on the forensics team is world treasure Cate Blanchett
The rewatch value of this movie (and Edgar Wright movies in general) is masterful! One of the reasons as to why Edgar Wright is one of my favorite directors.
Hopefully one day we will get to see his original idea for AntMan.
Looking forward to Edgar’s ‘Last Night In Soho’, when cinemas open
So many things you don't notice on first viewing, like at 24:30 when Nicholas rides back into town there's a poster in the shop window for Romeo and Juliet, with the new actors.
Hot fuzz is fantastic movie the chemistry between Simon Pegg and Nick frost is amazing
nice actors but i dont like comedy near someone killed..
That’ll be the 20+ years they’ve known/have been working with each other
you need to watch spaced its a series with them both in
Nick Frost is an asshole! Guy thinks he's Judge Judy and executioner!
They're best friends in real life. When Simon Pegg was homeless he slept on Nick Frost and his wife's couch. They've known each other well beyond this entertainment stuff.
“Nothing like a bit of girl on girl!”- and the academy award for best actress goes to...
To Her Majesty.
The production of Romeo and Juliet in the movie is a reference to a movie version in the 90's directed by Baz Lurman.
12 minutes of Duaffy taking Simon Pegg seriously was priceless
You can tell the twins apart by the books they are reading, either Iain Banks (modern fiction) or Iain M Banks (sci fi). I always thought that was a wonderful little touch.
And Iain Banks was an amazing writer.
@@unicyclist97 both of him
Well spotted, I completely missed that 👍😎
My favourite bit is the swear box
The great thing about the cornetto trilogy is that they manage to be brilliant comedies and parodies without losing track of the essence of the thing they're parodying. Shaun of the Dead is a very competent zombie movie, Hot Fuzz a very competent Cop Buddy movie and At Worlds End - well, you get it.
Oof! _Smooth way to phrase it...!_
Yeah, it's why I consider Shaun to be horror-comedy, rather than horror parody. The horror is played straight, it's the characters who make it funny.
This will always remain the greatest of the trilogy as it's where Edgar Wright showed the greatest skill of a director and where he earned the title of master of transitions.
While it's hard to compete with Lord of the Rings and Star Wars (ROTK is probably always going to be my #1 movie ever made by every metric and Star Wars basically changed cinema and moviemaking forever and more than any other movie) I wouldn't be too upset at now that you made me think about it honestly to put it at #3 (4? Perfectly honest, I truly believe Emperor Palpatine's story arc is the greatest bit of storytelling ever since the dawn of human language, so I damn near put III as the top movie. Still, I agree LOTR, Star Wars, Cornetto) If nothing else for them being a literal complete masterclass in filmmaking and directing from Edgar Wright because there is literally every trick in the book somewhere in one of the 3.
The PISTAKER joke always gets me 😂😂😂
"Oh, really? Pisstaker? COME ON!"
Then that awkward "...yes, Mr. Staker..." lol
@@ojtheviking the cut to him addressing him as “Mr. Staker” was perfect 😂😂
I love Stephen Merchant
My favourite joke is the whole Fascist, Hag gag. Especially when if you pay attention, in the crossword, fascist was from left to right, and hag was from up to down. And the in the shooting scene, she shoots at him from left to right while yelling fascist, and he shoots the flower pot that falls down on her when he says hag.
@@Klaital1 I never noticed the directional aspect but I still love that joke 😂😂
My fav part of the whole thing, oddly enough, is Timothy Dalton talking while his face is impaled... "This reeeeally hurts" had me on the floor 😂
Duaffy: *does the song from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly while he's riding the horse*
Me: So...she's a treasure.
Get used to it!
I remember seeing this in the theater and being completely dumbfounded as to where the movie was going when the killer first showed up lol
Duaffy's giggles and eraser-laughs are still the best :D
This is the simultaneously the most serious and comedic cop movie I've ever seen
“Hot Fuzz” is one of the greatest British action comedies of all time, and probably the best film of the Cornetto Trilogy since “Shaun of the Dead”. Hope you also react to “Shaun of the Dead” and “The World’s End” as well. Couldn’t wait for Edgar Wright’s latest film “Last Night in Soho” this year.
You are so sweet and adorable Duaffy! Hot Fuzz is one of my all-time favorite comedies! It cleverly plays upon the buddy cop genre of film. Your smile, giggles, and humor make this all the more better!
As was mentioned, this is the second film of the Cornetto Trilogy. You don't need to watch them in any particular order. The first one made was "Shaun of the Dead," "Hot Fuzz" the second, and "The World's End" the third. They are not narratively related at all, but they are thematically related in that each is an over-the-top parody of a different genre: zombie apocalypse, police action movie, and science fiction.
It's called the Cornetto Trilogy because a cornetto ice cream shows up somewhere in each one.
Strawberry (red) Cornetto for "Shaun of the Dead", original (blue) for "Hot Fuzz and mint with chocolate chips (green) Cornetto for "World's End".
Cornetto is not a brand that's traveled across the pond, so the niceties of different varieties are lost over here.
I'm so glad you're checking this out! I believe it was the 2nd out of the trilogy, but this is one of the very few movie trilogies where the order doesn't matter at all 😊
SPOILERS AHEAD
The "shortcut" joke lands better if you watch Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead and World's End in that order...
"Sandford" is actually Wells in the UK. It's the smallest city in England last I knew. I live 15 minutes away in Cheddar. The home of the cheese.
I think Wells is where Edgar Wright grew up, and the 'Best Village' committe members are Edgar and Simon's mums, plus a teacher of Edgar's, if I remember right.
Not only is it where Edgar Wright is from, if I remember correctly, the supermarket in this is the exact same one where he had his first job.
@@hoticehilda6296 - Yeah, Edgar is in the background of one shot in the grocery store pushing a large pile of groceries.
"Sandford" is also a fictionalised town used in police training and promotion exams when reference is required to an address
@@pinkyperky3506 Well it's also a 32 minute drive from Wells. Lol. It's where Thatchers Cider is made.
Did you catch how many times in this movie certain lines are repeated but take on whole new contexts the second time around?
Hag
@@atmbcito Right - what he said.
I love it when people who don't know anything about Hot Fuzz see the first murder scene.
“Yarp. I knew it.”
Priceless.
Duaffy,
Yarp was played by Rory McCann, the same actor that plays Sandor Clegain, The Hound, in Game of Thrones.
Supreme editing on this video, excellent selection on what 10 minutes to show. You maintained the structure of the film and kept every plot point, allowing the audience to follow along. Even had they not seen the film before, a viewer could watch this and understand exactly how the story unfolded, and how the two main characters grew.
I particularly enjoyed the way you edited the small moments of Sgt. Angel doing his job, painstakingly showing each part of being a police officer in a small town: meeting the residents; orientation at the station; coordinating with Neighbourhood Watch (or similar orgs); community outreach and local school presentations; responding to non-emergency calls from citizens; patrolling a beat; shopping/errands while on duty; setting up a speedtrap; maintaining a police cordon; providing security at a local festival; paperwork. The film injects drama every opportunity it gets, but these are all real, every-day things that police might do on any given day as part of their job, and you took great care to keep all that in, while still finding moments to allow your wonderful personality and reaction to come through. Well done.
Very rare to see that level of awareness and effort, most reactors keep in the jokes, punchlines, and situational comedy, at the expense of the narrative structure. Fantastic work, Ms. Duaffy, you have earned a subscriber, today.
Despite I do edit most of my videos myself (but I am no professional), this one was edited by Koalaxy. In the description box you can find more about him. I'll let him know your comment. I am sure he will be very happy 😊 Thank you so much for taking your time writing it 💝 Have a great day!
@@DuaffyMS Apologies, I completely forgot to check your description box before posting, it's right there at the top! Nevertheless, I stand by it. Although this video was edited by another, it was but one in a line of reactions of yours I was impressed with. This one simply sealed the deal, love your content.
You must do “Shaun of the dead”, it’s amazing. The movie they did before this one.
"Technically he's doing the right thing...well no, technically he's according to the law."
Making this distinction automatically makes you smarter than roughly 80% of the planet.
It's unintuitive maybe, but you only have to think of a law that you don't fully agree with to understand the concept.
Timothy Dalton makes a better villain or anti-hero that a straight hero. Loved him here and in Flash Gordon
The rocketeer also
James Bond..#
To be fair, he is one of the very best James Bonds
He was a fantastic Bond!
Funniest part is that literally his first line in the movie to Angel was 'I am a slasher!' basically revealing who the villain was right away.
“I love swans!” They are mean ass birds.
The desk sergeant 'twins' are both played by Bill Bailey, a very talented comedian and musician. There are lots of clips of his shows up on youtube if you're interested
Love him as Manny from Black Books❤
I got the DVD box set of Hot Fuzz with the multiple commentary tracks. One of them is with the villains, and it's delightful. It's a bunch of elderly British actors who have been friends for years telling stories and only occasionally talking about the movie.
Hearing your laugh brings a smile to my face, great reaction as always Duaffy 🙂🙂
In 2018 Olivia Coleman who played the police woman Doris went on to win the Oscar for Best Actress
She was also nominated for a Best Supporting Oscar this past weekend (and was great in 'The Father', as she is in everything). I loved her so much in Broadchurch and Fleabag, too. Two amazing shows.
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost could be in any type of movie and I know I'd love it. I'm glad they used the mine at the end. After all, a mine is a terrible thing to waste 🤣
One of my favorite parts is having an ex-James Bond impaled on a steeple through his chin and mouth in the most gruesome manner follow it up with "Owwwwwwww, this reaaally hurts. I'm going to need some ice cream." And Timothy Dalton was fabulous in this role.
oh it IS a comedy its a BRITISH comedy xD and for that, thats even a light one xD
This movie is so much fun, but the gag I love the best is in the casting - an outsider cop is sent to a village where things aren't quite what they seem... of course Edward Woodward is there. Great shout out to The Wicker Man.
"... oh god no."
I'm so happy you've watched this, it's one of my favourites.
I'm currently trying to join the police in England and I know this will be a movie I quote WAY too often
I wish you the best of luck!!! 😁
@@DuaffyMS thank you 🙇 😁
@@DuaffyMS Why did u say oh No please
@@MarvelFan-kc8or where?
@@DuaffyMS When thet weed on the floor in the pub
The final fight takes part in a 'model village', which is a play on the phrase model village (an ideal village).
The Desk Sergeant(s) are always reading an Iain Banks novel. Skinner is Timothy Dalton, who played James Bond.
This was fun to watch with you! Thank you for sharing! :)
This was one of the strangest movie theater experiences I've ever had. My girlfriend and I were laughing hysterically throughout the whole film, but everyone else in the theater was DEAD SILENT.
As an actor who has appeared in many of Shakespeare's plays, I was rolling on the floor laughing at the Romeo and Juliet scene. Truly worthy of death.
The line in he reveal where Nicholas says “you didn’t have to kill him” and Skinner flatly replies “well he killed Bill Shakespeare” gets me every time
That movie is PACKED with comedy. Second, third or 50th watch, you'll always find a funny detail. Brilliant! Like your commentary - subbed! 😄
Me: It's a comedy/horror/drama
Michael: Yarp!
Thank you for the reaction. This is my favourite film. I've seen it multiple times, but this is the first time I've seen with someone else.
Your laughter is adorable. This movie was well written Simon and Nick are great together. I had fun with your reaction! Keep up the good work!!
You might be interested to know that the actor who played Skinner played James Bond at one point.
He was also in Flash Gordon. Timothy Dalton is such an underrated actor.
James Bond, Mr Rochester, King Phillip II, ruler of all the Time Lords, Timothy Dalton had done it all
Love how you have a little hamster in your video cover picture! Its so cute!
🐳My Gills are smiling, my tail is flipping and my scales are tingling!
🐳Great job my friend!
🐳 I'mma order a chilli dog from door dash because im starvin like Marvin!
I'm surprised how many times you've called it. For your first time watching this movie, you're rather spot-on.
When you said “I can’t believe this is how it is actually happening” referring to Angel and Butterman carrying weapons and ammo to the evidence room, it reminded me of a story I heard from my friend, a Russian police officer.
There are still quite a few landmines and unexploded artillery rounds in Russia on the old battlefields of the Second World War (most have been cleaned up, but some remain). One day, a local farmer called the police and informed them he found something that appears to be an unexploded artillery shell. It proved to be exactly that, but, due to it being in a poorly accessible rural area, the sapper team could only arrive to take care of it tomorrow. The police still had to ensure that no one would stumble upon this shell and harm themselves before that, so they left an officer to guard it until the morning. However, the weather was bad, and the officer did not really feel like spending the entire night under cold rain. Instead, he loaded the shell into his car, drove home, spend a night there, and in the morning brought the shell back to the place it was found.
Bottom line: yes, the handling of arms, ammunition, and explosives in law enforcement can absolutely take absurdly comical forms.
One of my favorite references in this film is that his badge number is 777, a number associated with Jesus Christ and the Christian religion, his name is Angel and he rides in on a pale horse (or death) with Wings made from guns.
Comedy gore is a real thing, most of them are called "splattstick" - perfect examples are Evil Dead 2 and the early Peter Jackson-movies Bad Taste & Brain Dead (Dead Alive). Speaking of Jackson, he has a cameo as the knife stabbing Santa in this movie =) *Yarp*
Tucker and Dale vs Evil
@@unicyclist97 That's right! Forgot about that one.
I would definitely enjoy your reaction to the entire "Cornetto trilogy" (apparently so named because there is Cornetto ice cream in all three). They're all similarly delightful, funny, twisty movies. :)
You have just made my day. Just got in from work, and this is waiting..... 🥰
Shaun of the Dead next! It is dark & gory in a similar kind of way to Hot Fuzz but in my opinion the dialogue is at it's best in Shaun of The Dead so many great moments & quotes.
Then The World’s End next
Duaffy's movie reactions are most clever ones I know. I love them! Thumbs Up!
This team has shown itself to be fantastic story tellers. I love this movie.
The guy who plays the main bad guy in this was also one the actors who played James Bond in the past Timothy Dalton :)
As others have already commented, this is part of the Cornetto trilogy (Cornetto is an ice cream brand) and it's the second movie of three. They can be watched in any order since their stories aren't connected, only the actors, director and style.
In order of release you've got the wonderful "Shaun of the Dead", "Hot Fuzz" and "World's End". I really hope you watch the other two as well since my personal favorite Shaun of the Dead is better than Hot Fuzz (in my personal opinion) but I love all three. I do think I prefer Shaun of the Dead and World's End over Hot Fuzz but that's just me.
If you felt this movie took a sudden turn halfway through, wait until you watch the third and last movie in the Cornetto trilogy "World's End". It shocked even me at first. ;)
the world's end is the worst of the 3. it's not bad ofc, only compared to the other 2. shaun & hot fuzz... they are seriously debated in the web, currently i like hot fuzz better, but honestly both are great.
@@szepi79 Well, in the end it comes down to personal preference/subjective opinion. As far as my personal enjoyment ranking I'd put Shaun first, World's End second and Hot Fuzz last. They're all good so it's more a question of "Okay, I feel like watching a movie in the cornetto trilogy" and which one I'd like to watch most from a purely personal perspective.
"No luck catching them killers, eh" was the line i knew the ENTIRE NWA was in on the murder plots. still genius reveal a few minutes later though
This is cute. Someday do get around to do all three of them.
Hot Fuzz is one of the movies which i'll pick up above Princess Bride. But i think both are equally good. I prefer this a tiny bit more. Because i prefer crime and mystery setting over medieval romance. But both are great movies. So rewatchable.
Hi from Alantic City 🌆 , Simon Pegg is Awesome... The Inheritance, Shaun of the Dead, Absolutely Anything he's in... Paul.
I'm actually from Gloucestershire... it has its moments ;) Love the reaction, best wishes
There are 3 movies known as the "Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy" or "Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy"
"Shaun of the Dead" is the first one followed by "Hot Fuzz," and "The World’s End" is the third one.
You gotta see them all 'cause Edgar Wright is a friggin' genius.
2/3 of this film actually works as a brilliant mystery/thriller (and the superb comedy doesn't really get in the way)
LoL the brain freeze scene kills me every time
Whoa. Your channel and commentary has improved so much over the past year.
The tall guy , Michael, who says “yarp” is the guy who plays The Hound on Game Of Thrones (Rory McCann).
This is such an amazing movie. You are such a great reactor and deserve so many more subs.
“When’s your birthday?”
“22nd of February.”
“What year?”
“Every year.”
“Get out!”
Duaffy you are a very keen observer and always notice logical missteps with scenes and the plot. I wish some studios would hire you as a consultant!
Duaffy humming "lovefool" was so adorable
Loved this reaction, please do Shawn of the Dead and World's End aswell.
The farmer with all the guns is Walder Frey from game of thrones
I have this on DVD. There's commentary from Edgar Wright and Quentin Tarantino which is entertaining.
Michael in the supermarket - Yarp - is played by the guy who played the Hound in Game of THrones.
13:15 Notice how Danny makes it over the hedge. He's already learning!
I don’t know if you know but this film is part of a series of films called the ‘Cornetto Trilogy’ They’re all directed by Edgar Wright and consist of a similar cast. You might notice that the editing of this is series it’s truly amazing like scene transitions and quick edits, they’re all done by Edgar Wright and he is renown for his editing style. Would highly advise watching Shaun of the Dead and World’s End as they are the other two! Would be great to see your reaction to those!
Fun fact: Edgar Wright also directed baby driver, you can tell by the quick edits and music choices
My absolute favourite film 😍 thanks for reacting to this one x
That Santa Clause that stabbed Sgt Angel at the beginning was Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings).
Another movie that starts out as a genre satire, but finishes as just a really good example of the genre it’s satirizing: Galaxy Quest (1999)
This is actually the second movie in a trilogy with Simon Pegg. The first is Shaun of the dead, the last is At world's end. Great movies.
Besides The Hound from GoT, the guy in the cottage with all the weapons played Walder Frey.
I disagree with you, I laughed all the way through this film! This is a fantastic comedy. 😂
great super chaotic movie in a good meaning..
next you need to react to Snatch
This movie is even better if you watch “Shaun of the Dead” first. A lot of references to that movie in this one and they’re fantastic!
Great reaction D! Wright, Pegg, & Frost are comedic geniuses! Looking forward to you reacting to "The World's End" -
Twists and turns. Yeah...makes a good story! Thank you Duaffy!
OMG so excited for this reaction before I've even watched it. I love the Cornetto Trilogy films so much (and everything else Edgar Wright has directed). As a gamer you HAVE to watch Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, along with Baby Driver and Shaun of the Dead and The World's End! All of them!! Also, the Santa that stabs Nicolas in the hand is director Peter Jackson, and his girlfriend is an uncredited Cate Blanchett. The jumping over the fence scene is an update on the same scene in Shaun of the Dead, and many of the NWA members are well-known British actors who starred in films like 'The Wicker Man' (the original), 'The Exorcist' (the original), etc.
There are many more than that too, the trilogy has many of the same actors appearing in all three and almost the entire cast of Spaced (the bbc show Pegg, Frost, and Wright made before the movies) appears across the trilogy. Katy Carmichael is the only one who never appeared for whatever reason
@@SuperTicklemonsters - Yeah, absolutely. So many great cameos, especially in Shaun of the Dead with characters from Spaced, and a lot of the zombies were fans of the show who go to be in the movie. Chris Martin from Coldplay is a zombie in one scene at the end, as well.
Ayyy, right on time for me to watch while eating lunch lol.
the surreal and light tone of this film reminds me of the 60's UK TV series The Avengers.
This is the only character in a movie that is close to how i operate
That's the power of British Comedy, love
that flip book was pretty impressive actually...
Was duaffy having a 404 error. The confusion on her face😂
The "yarp guy" is The Mountain from Game of Thrones!
