"With respect, sir, you can't just make people disappear." "Yes I can I'm the Chief Inspector." Which is exactly what Chief Inspector Butterman had been doing for years.
At the beginning of the movie, Sgt.Angel was jogging. Everyone in the village greeted him "morning sargeant". Only when he came back to the village on a horse with tons of guns he replied back saying "morning".
With the notebook, I think it is more reference to when Danny stabs Angel into his notebook to fool others that he kills him. Notebook literally saved his life by stopping knife.
no, that was just a red herring, Danny fakes Angel's death with the ketchup trick he showed him earlier, Danny put the ketchup packet in Angel's pocket WITH the Notebook
There’s also a joke with the Tim Messenger scene because the phrase “You’re number’s up” means someone is in danger or near death, but the reverend says it because of how Tim’s name was chosen from the raffle
and the reverend says at the start of the church fate scenes "someone will be in for a surprise at 3 o clock" which is exactly when tim messenger was murdered
Danny shooting the doctor in the leg with an air rifle is a reference to Shaun of the Dead where Ed talks about how he once shot his sister in the leg with an air rifle.
7:09 judging by the actors costumes for Romeo and Juliet being Romeo's Knight and Juliet's angel costume from the 1996 Romeo + Juliet movie with Leonardo DiCaprio, and the modern song added. I suspect this is not a reference to Monty python, but is instead a referenced to the previously mentioned 1996 Romeo + Juliet, in which the actors wore those costumes to the Capulets party. More importantly the movie is weirdly a modern adaptation and quite meme worthy with 90s Italian gang families rocking guns sword 9mm engraved onto them. It also featured the song during the movie.
The whole movie is basically a series of continous foreshadowing, making a running gag of twists in police stories. The gag being that in reality, the most obvious solution is often right.
You forgot another consistent 'Cornetto trilogy' element that is more obvious in this one and shaun of the dead: "Want anything from the shop?" "Cornetto"
On the topic of "More guns in the country than there are in the city." the accidental stash of firearms that Arthur Webley has in his shed. (Plus Webley is the name of a single/double action revolver used by the British Army, Navy and Air Force for the past 100 years.) So there's a firearms reference too.
During the begining of the movie Nicholas tells the head of the london police department that they cant just make people disappear, refrencing how the NWA literally make people "disappear"
In the beginning of the movie you can see Nicholas Angle answering every multiple choice question with "C". This is a mini easter egg for the common unprepared student tactic of choosing to answer all C's on a multiple choice test because they think a good amount of correct answers will be C.
6:20 (from Shaun of the Dead) Shaun: What's the matter, David? Never taken a shortcut before? 6:01 (from Hot Fuzz) Nicholas Angel: What's the matter, Danny? You never taken a shortcut before? 6:31 (from The World's End) Gary King: Oh, no! (Me: (Laughs) What's the matter, Gary? You never taken a shortcut before?)
7:11 Besides the Baz Luhrman version, this Romeo and Juliet scene is referencing one in the play Nicholas Nickleby, where the entire company gets up and sings. David Threlfall, the "Romeo", was one of the stars of the 1982 production.
The play happening was Romeo and Julliet, and the song that Skinner had playing was Romeo and Julliet by Dire Straits. Same sorta thing with Fire by Bruce Springsteen (I think) when he drives past the scene of the fire.
there was the irl foreshadowing too, it was filmed in wells, Tim's head was crushed by the church roof, and in Storm Eunice, Wells Cathedral's roof fell off
In the beginning montage, some of Sargent Angel's abilities include martial arts and fencing. He employs both against Mr Cooper during the climax in the same order.
I haven’t seen anyone talk about how the end shoot out of hot fuzz when angel walks in on horse back to the town centre is a massive copy/ nod to the end of a fist full of dollars. They are a 1:1 copy pretty much. And hot fuzz is in the corneto trilogy and a fist full of dollars is in the spaghetti western trilogy. That’s not a coincidence.
At the start when he's in the bit he stays at with the recruits and if you pause it before the camera quickly turns to angel you can see a photo of his pedal car he talks about to Danny
You also forgot the thing with "shoot all the little people and you can waltz off with the cuddly monkey" - cut to the rainy scene - "[...] and it's high time you realize that, you and your monkey!" "did he mean me or that?" (and also the scene where Nick shoots all the NWA members at the market place)
I love this movie. They have two hidden cameos. Father Christmas (on screen for 1/2 a 12:25 second) was actually Peter Jackson, the director of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The ex-girlfriend was Kate Blanchett. She is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood, and the director, Edgar Wright, has her hidden in a CSI suit. I also thought the Neighborhood Watch Alliance was a cheeky reference to the NWA. This movie is so full of Easter eggs that it is impossible to count them all. Luckily, there is a RUclips video that gives you everything. Just do a search of Hot Fuzz Easter eggs and you will see how much was crammed into this movie.
The references i know in this movie are Point Break (1991) Romeo + Juliet (1996) Face/Off (1997) the scene where Angel and Danny fire their guns while jumping through the air is similar to the scene in Face/Off where the villain Castor Troy fires his golden guns while jumping through the air. The NWA members in hooded Cloaks is a reference to those Horror films Angel riding his horse into the town is a reference to the classic Westerns
@@josefengelhardt2767 it also refrences a passage from revelations I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider was Death, and hell followed close behind him
This one might be a bit of a stretch but whatever in the scene where nicholas is talking about how there is always something going on (where he talks about mr treacher,lurch and the “fuck ugly guy”) for me it kind of mirrors the scene where ed is talking about how all the patrons at the winchester have interesting pasts
The slo-mo shot of the police car jumping into the model village is recreated from the parking valets joyriding in Cameron's dad's Ferrari in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
"With respect, sir, you can't just make people disappear."
"Yes I can I'm the Chief Inspector."
Which is exactly what Chief Inspector Butterman had been doing for years.
Idea for a sequel: Chief Inspector Nicholas Angell has to take down Bill Nighy
That's exactly what Bill Nighy's character does in The World's End!
@@noeighteen1 That is some next level referencing...

@@neo-warkid4edwards222 That doesn’t invalidate OPs comment
Timothy Daulton shouts "Splat the rat!" at the village fair before the reporter gets splattered.
Also rat being slang for some who tells the secrets they know, which Tim Messenger was about to do. Also hence the decision to call him Messenger.
There’s also a joke with the Tim Messenger scene because the phrase “You’re number’s up” means someone is in danger or near death, but the reverend says it because of how Tim’s name was chosen from the raffle
Also, Skinner barking "splat the rat!" while glaring at Tim.
and the reverend says at the start of the church fate scenes "someone will be in for a surprise at 3 o clock" which is exactly when tim messenger was murdered
The old women who said fascist was holding a German gun
Could’ve been a British Lanchester sub machine gun. That’s a British copy of German mp34
Looks more like a British sten gun to me
@Ben Jackson Definitely not a STEN, either an MP 34 or Lanchester SMG (Copy of the MP 34)
@@memelord2799 huh, seems like a wasted opertunity
Huh, i did not know there's a copy of the sten machine gun
Danny shooting the doctor in the leg with an air rifle is a reference to Shaun of the Dead where Ed talks about how he once shot his sister in the leg with an air rifle.
I thought I was the only one who got it?
When the camera sort of circles around them as they talk and look cool is also a reference to bad boys 2 which they watched one night in danny's place

An occam's razor of movies
You forgot another consistent 'Cornetto trilogy' element that is more obvious in this one and shaun of the dead:
"Want anything from the shop?"
"Cornetto"
The fact that the two characters with references to them acting were shot and reacted in the most dramatic fashion
Ayyy a fellow George Hill. And watching hot fuzz, a man of culture also I see.
When Danny throws the DVD back into the bargain bin you can see Shaun of the Dead in the bargain bin too.
On the topic of "More guns in the country than there are in the city." the accidental stash of firearms that Arthur Webley has in his shed. (Plus Webley is the name of a single/double action revolver used by the British Army, Navy and Air Force for the past 100 years.) So there's a firearms reference too.

You'd better fix that, or your gonna get splattered
5:03 "no luck catching them killers then?" 'The Killers' poster in the background
And she gave the NWA away unintentionally too
had to go back to see if there was a poster for the band Swans… wishful thinking on my part
Wow! Not only that! It's a poster for their debut album, Hot Fuss!
6:20 (from Shaun of the Dead) Shaun: What's the matter, David? Never taken a shortcut before?
6:01 (from Hot Fuzz) Nicholas Angel: What's the matter, Danny? You never taken a shortcut before?
6:31 (from The World's End) Gary King: Oh, no! (Me: (Laughs) What's the matter, Gary? You never taken a shortcut before?)
Such a brilliantly written script!

Nice one
Subtle reference, Sanford is also a fictional town used for police training exercises
The play happening was Romeo and Julliet, and the song that Skinner had playing was Romeo and Julliet by Dire Straits. Same sorta thing with Fire by Bruce Springsteen (I think) when he drives past the scene of the fire.
Dire Straights was one of the records Simon Pegg allowed Frost to throw in Shaun of the Dead.
Fire was by Arthur Brown.
there was the irl foreshadowing too, it was filmed in wells, Tim's head was crushed by the church roof, and in Storm Eunice, Wells Cathedral's roof fell off
They were raising money via swear jar for the Church roof...
In the beginning montage, some of Sargent Angel's abilities include martial arts and fencing. He employs both against Mr Cooper during the climax in the same order.
When Nick Frost stabs himself in the eye and then does the same with the knife.
The goose storyline pops up at the end as well
It's a swan
Nicholas’s writing pad saved him when Danny ‘stabs’ him in the church, Danny knew he had it
Edgar Wright has to be my favorite director. Hot Fuzz and Baby Driver are in my Top 10, with Baby Driver topping the list.
0:50 Note the gun she used in that scene as well. It's a Solothurn S1-100, also known as the MP-34. Guess who used it in the year it was manufactored?
“Zos Vacky Germans”
Oh my god, the Fascist-Hag one was incredible!
The foreshadowing about the swan breaking an arm
I haven’t seen anyone talk about how the end shoot out of hot fuzz when angel walks in on horse back to the town centre is a massive copy/ nod to the end of a fist full of dollars. They are a 1:1 copy pretty much. And hot fuzz is in the corneto trilogy and a fist full of dollars is in the spaghetti western trilogy. That’s not a coincidence.
The 7 across 12 down is actually so cool
Doesnt Inspector Butterman also have two western style pistols at the end because he likes cowboys?
At the start when he's in the bit he stays at with the recruits and if you pause it before the camera quickly turns to angel you can see a photo of his pedal car he talks about to Danny
"Fascism, wonderful"
Man, Uncle Edgar really understands rural types
You also forgot the thing with "shoot all the little people and you can waltz off with the cuddly monkey" - cut to the rainy scene - "[...] and it's high time you realize that, you and your monkey!" "did he mean me or that?" (and also the scene where Nick shoots all the NWA members at the market place)
And the icecream is Chunky Monkey!

What about the notebook saving Nicholas' skin then Danny stabbing Nicholas where the notebook was? Literally saving his skin
The references i know in this movie are
Point Break (1991)
Romeo + Juliet (1996)
Face/Off (1997) the scene where Angel and Danny fire their guns while jumping through the air is similar to the scene in Face/Off where the villain Castor Troy fires his golden guns while jumping through the air.
The NWA members in hooded Cloaks is a reference to those Horror films
Angel riding his horse into the town is a reference to the classic Westerns
Love how you can see Angel and Danny assimilating things of each other, like good partners.
I wish they make sequel to all 3 movies.
Excellent work
I'm pretty sure the "it's" guy at the end is a reference to Monty Python
You missed when Nicholas said "you csnt make people disappear"
"Im the inspector yes i can"
1:22
Angel: How can this be for the greater good?
NWA: (in unison) The greater good.
Angel: SHUT IT!
LOL
5:43 the music playing in the background is also played in Spaced season 1 episode 2
0:30 The gran is my favourite villager.
this is called good writing :)
Good? More like phenomenal
The scene where Angel rides his horse into the town before the shootout begins is a reference to those classic Westerns.
@@josefengelhardt2767 it also refrences a passage from revelations
I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider was Death, and hell followed close behind him
The extra from "Straw Dogs" getting a bear trap on his head is also a reference to that same movie.
My favorite is china town refence.
This one might be a bit of a stretch but whatever
in the scene where nicholas is talking about how there is always something going on (where he talks about mr treacher,lurch and the “fuck ugly guy”) for me it kind of mirrors the scene where ed is talking about how all the patrons at the winchester have interesting pasts
i think #39 is also a reference to Shaun of the dead where Nick Frost's character shot his sister in the leg with an air rifle if i remember it right
The slo-mo shot of the police car jumping into the model village is recreated from the parking valets joyriding in Cameron's dad's Ferrari in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
I really dont think the Monty Python thing is a reference. Just because they dance around? Wat?
Yeah, some of these were a bit of a stretch
0:56 😂😂😂😂
LOVED the Rome reference
They also put multiple references in one shot, like the spinny camera from Bad Boys etc
In the bargain bin Shaun Of The Dead is in the bin. But it called Zombie Party In The UK.
4:29 - Wow. Never even knew that until now!
Not a single line of dialog in this movie is a throwaway
There's also the first time when Danny stabs his eye with a fork but it's just ketchup
Would help if the audio levels weren’t all over the place
This one movie has more continuity than the whole MCU
OMG 12 down - 12 guage shotgun downing a flower pot, how did you catch that?
Please tell me you cover the whole swan saga?
From PI Staker to the escape
I think you missed this one:
-They listed her age as 55.
-When actually I'm 53!
25... was tenuous. It was nothing to do with Monty Python
Is this method the same with the the attraction of consonance? It gives rhythm i guess..repetetive pattern
Brilliant film.😊
Wow the audio levels are all over the place...
4:51
If you want your mind blown, pay attention to everyone’s surnames.
Dude you’re not allowed to upload the entire movie
isn,t mr treacher a reference to treackers farm in straw dogs??
Why can't I find this on any streaming service?
I dont agree with number 25 but the rest were pretty good
And as for 10, it’s not foreshadowing unless you talk about it BEFORE it happens
The volume balancing on this video is horrendous, but I enjoyed the video anyway
I have no idea how anyone could actually enjoy this properly lol
Who was the person who cut their leg on the glass in the chase?
Number 7 threw me off
Imagine watching this without having seen the movie first
I'm having trouble hearing what the first song is on #31
It's Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits.
I don't get #7
Brah, learn to balance your audio.
terrible audio mix
Very lazy writing.
It’s quite the opposite actually
