    As citizen of the US, both this movie and Hot Fuzz were very culturally relevant to a child of the 90’s. World’s End less so, but still a great movie.

      @-user_redacted- 11 месяцев назад +7

      Same here. Shaun of the Dead I think is what introduced me to Simon Pegg, so I was always down to see more from him.

    • @vinnie666
      @vinnie666 11 месяцев назад +7

      yup, still referred to as a trilogy pretty frequently in the States.

    @patstevens4560 11 месяцев назад +24

    I’m 25 from the US and even for people my age Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz were inescapable. I had two friends who had one each on dvd when we were kids and would watch them all the time

    As an American I can confirm that the entire Cornetto trilogy is revered and loved by most Americans.

    i have a massive soft spot for worlds end simply because i managed to go in completely blind and DAMN i thought for like 15 minutes "okay, he`s gonna wake up in a pool of his own vomit any second now. oh, its still going, wait, is this... is this happening? oh god this is actually the movie now"

  • @charleslee8313
    @charleslee8313 11 месяцев назад +9

    I'm here in the States. I've seen the movie; some of my family and friends have seen it. My favorite of the Cornetto Trilogy is Hot Fuzz, but Shaun of the Dead and The World's End are a lot of fun, too.
    Thank you for adding my FAVORITE scene from "Hot Fuzz" in this video.
    "Night Of The Living Dead" is in public domain, so technically Edgar and Simon didn't steal the line from Romero's film.

  • @raymondortiz1748

    simon pegg and nick frost bring me so much joy. hot fuzz is my second favorite movie ever but shaun is not far behind. i don't think i've ever missed an opportunity to say "you've got red on you" to any vaguely red stain on a shirt.

  • @theforkedman3030

    I love to see them do a video on "Tucker and Dale vs Evil". It's my favorite horror movie and it's great.

    I'm British but have been living in the Netherlands since I was 6 years old and I have had the privilege to introduce so many people to the cornetto trilogy! Here there are many many people whi have not been blessed by seeing these movies.

  • @_SYDGAMING_

    I will always say my favourite moment In Shaun of the dead is when Simon and nick are coming back from the Winchester pub pissed and a zombie is down the road and you hear the boys going "dibadibadiba da" you hear the loud moan from the zombie always puts me on my ass laughing

    I live in Michigan, And everyone I know loves both Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, I've never met someone who hasn't seen Shaun of the Dead. My favorite line in any movie to this day is from Hot Fuzz, "everyone and there mums got guns, round here, like who? Farmers. Who else? Farmers Mums. lmfao. I still laugh out loud every time I think about it.

    • @technounionrepresentative4274
      @technounionrepresentative4274 10 месяцев назад

    I'd just like to mention, I never thought Paul was an Edgar Wright film. I knew it had nothing to do with the Cornetto trilogy. Also, that movie is one of my favorites 😅 although i have like 75 favorites 😂

  • @Kitsune-Chaos
    @Kitsune-Chaos 11 месяцев назад +1

    From an America's viewpoint, I think if someone isn't familiar with Shaun of the Dead, they're at least familiar with Hot Fuzz -- or it's the other way around.
    If those films weren't enough to get Simon Pegg over in the US, now he's just in the Mission Impossible films, and even the influence for Hughie in The Boys comic (and Hughie's Dad in the TV show).
    Side Note: I liked Paul. Especially Sigourney Weaver's appearance as the villain. xD

  • @leelyon4321

    I'm in the USA, and if anyone in any of my social circles said they hadn't seen Shawn of the dead, that would be changed very quickly. Basically everyone has seen it.

  • @mehcutcheon2401
    @mehcutcheon2401 11 месяцев назад

    Oh man, I can't think of a single person I know who hasn't seen either of them. All their team up movies are super funny and worth watching. Shaun of the dead was known by EVERYONE LOL.

    @valliedollx 11 месяцев назад

    I'm 39 in the US. I feel like all the folks I know around my age are familiar with Shaun of the Dead best of the Cornetto Trilogy. Of my closest friends, I am sure they know Hot Fuzz, but even less so The World's End. Of the films, though, World's End is my favorite, then Shaun, and in last place I'd say Hot Fuzz. We also were fans of Spaced. I feel like my generation had a UK entertainment phase in the 2000s. I'd imagine because of the success of the Office.

    @mattday2656 11 месяцев назад

    In Canada they are huge, but UK content is huge in Canada. Growing up in the 80's and 90's there was a lot of UK content as placefiller on Canadian broadcasters, due to CanCon loopeholes and an emergent but under served canadian television landscape at that point, as the golden era of CanCon dipped to the Beach Combers and Wayne and Schuster at some point, lol. So I watched a lot of BBC stuff as a kid in the 80's and 90's.

    My brother cannot resist any opportunity to quote "There's a girl in the garden".
    Neither of us has a garden and there is rarely a garden when he says it.
    That to me is when a movie goes past cult. Misapply a quote and everybody still gets it.

    I can't really watch zombie comes films fully because one time I had a horrible nightmare, on of those where you feel like you've been in there for days, in the zombie apocalypse. I don't know why or how my brain did it but every time I start thinking of zombies I just start feeling paranoid, like the nightmare could restart any minute now and it felt so normal before he zombies started showing up that I would believe it if zombies showed up now. Has anyone else had this kind of thing?

  • @terriblej6107
    @terriblej6107 11 месяцев назад +1

    As a 39 year old guy from the Usa I think everyone I know, at least in my general age range, knows or have watched Shawn of the Dead. Hot fuzz is less watched, and The worlds end is kinda barely talked about. Hot Fuzz is my favorite, eventhough I hated it when I first saw it

  • @so1ar15

    I love all of those that were released the same year... Although I will say this, I have never seen the Notebook or The Ghibli film but I have only EVER heard positive reviews but I'm from the US my Dad is who introduced our family to Edgar Wright with Shaun of the Dead because he wanted to watch a more family friendly horror film cause my mom but she loved Shaun of the Dead so much she didn't care if it was a bit gory IT IS STILL SO DAMN GOOD

    I'm 38 and definitely played the hell out of re4 and watched this movie on repeat. Really amazing combo this movie was my favorite movie qhen it came out and has remained high on my list. One really important part was "thanks babe" it helped me to see non toxic male relationships were OK. Seems stupid but my friends and I started calling each other babe because of that scene.
    Today I would be hard pressed to choose between Shaun of the dead and Howl's moving castle. But in the year they came out no contest, went and saw Shaun of the dead twice in theaters, and it was one of the few dvds i owned.

    @Tirnel_S 11 месяцев назад

    I watched it once, years ago. Did not enjoy it. I honestly don't remember why, it's been that long, other than I didn't find it funny. In the film's defense, I was unaware it's part of a trilogy and I've not seen the other two. I was also less used to brittish humor than I am now. Perhaps I'll give it another watch in the future.
