- There are many ways that filmmakers save money. Director Edgar Wright, for example, decided to save those precious pennies on Shaun of the Dead by paying over 90% of his cast a single pound. Yep.

I would watch a 35 year old man drink and tell random facts.
We know. You did
I honestly thought they were about that age anyway.
35??!? Really?!
Surely not 35
Huh.
I thought they were both in their twenties.
OK then I guess.
A 35 year old man drinking and telling random facts? Sounds like a stereotypical dad in the making.
Speaking of that bit in Hot Fuzz, he specifically dropkicks a farmer's mum, which is itself a callback to an earlier joke.
"Everyone and their mum's packing round here"
"Yeah, like who?"
"Farmers..."
"And?"
"... Farmer's mums"
Brad's future is safe. He's behind the camera. It doesn't matter what he looks like. He can just replace Karl with some new kid and keep going.
it's been proven by now that you can replace a British actor in a roll with another British actor with different personalities every few years and it'd be just fine.
You don't even need the replacement to be the same gender.
Karl owns the show
@@seanhurley9216 not anymore
@@JustHaveFunVideos what do you mean he doesn't own his show?
Realistically the brightest flame burns out quicker, so if you just stay middle of the road above average youtube, you could last forever.
Voltanya048 Philip defranco
But fire and RUclips aren't really all that comparable. Sure, staying in the middle ground is all fine and good but the brightest get the money. Just look at youtubers like Markiplier and Jacksepticeye. They own their own clothing brand now.
I cracked up about the Kevin McLeod links in description...
Slightly disappointed that the outro wasn't replaced as suggested.
Same
I was an extra in the zombie movie Fido. I got paid $50, ate their food, and Billy Connelly wearing zombie makeup told me jokes until I almost pissed my pants. Best day ever..
Judge Dredd great film
As for dogs not being able to look up, it comes from spaced and one scene had a dog looking up, but the dog would not look up so nick frost thought that dogs could not look up
@@AstroLOW yeah, in the DVD commentary simon Pegg said that was the reason why it was included, as he and wright wrote the script
@@AstroLOW spaced is honestly one of the greatest shows, its got everything you love from the corneto trilogy
If you watch spaced look out for:
The old woman in the other group (sotd)
Davids other (sotd)
Liz (sotd)
One of the bar tenders (twe)
The only colourful zombie in the scene where Shaun distracts the zombies (sotd)
Pete (sotd)
@@AstroLOW yeah, I'm a huge wright/Pegg/Frost fan
Thanks for the sub :)
@@beatlemaniac-oc4dr Tyres (Michael Smiley) is also a zombie
@@chriszanf that's who I was referring to as the only colourful zombie... As it was a concise decision to put the zombies in muted neutral tones but for this cameo they kept the neon colours of his outfit
KARL I know a pub that 100% meets your description that needs somebody to run it!!!
It's called the Farmyard Inn in Youlgrave in Derbyshire... they've been looking for somebody to take over it... GET IN THERE LAD!
i would go to derbyshire just to buy a drink at karl's pub
absa-fuckin-lutely
Some times I do a British accent even tho I'm not so good at it
We all know we'd just go over to Karl's bar in morph suits holding up signs with fact fiend references
That pub would have the best bar trivia i imagine
Have a guy at the doors of the Fact Fiend bar, “Hey, ever heard of Fact Fiend?”
“What’s a Fact Fiend?”
“You’re in.”
Kevin Macleod is not only a hero, but a true genius as well. Criminally unappreciated that guy is.
Your videos are so niche with their own special quality they'll probably be evergreen. That's the real goal of youtube- Have a style that can never go stale. For some, that generally means experimenting and doing new stuff while retaining the same sense of humor and personality that sold people on the content in the first place. For others, that means having a format that makes things fun and interesting every time. As long as you never run out of things to discuss, you'll probably stay reasonably successful for a long period-- someone like Ashens is a good example of this.
I Love how Shaun explains and foreshadows the ENTIRE movie at the Winchester. Bloody Mary first thing in the morning, bite of the king's head, couple at the little princess, Etc, Etc
It's not sad what about Lindybeige he's older then 30.... and has a pretty good fanbase. He just does historical facts and is pretty funny. 778k subs as of writing this
Joe Rogan is like 50 and still going strong
Lindybeige!
@@funnygreenman6813 I love that man
Lloyd's a nerd. Nerds are immortal
Major props to whoever decided to shoot a scene where Shaun is sitting on the couch playing Timesplitters - When I saw this film as a kid, I used to have my mates around every weekend & we'd smash the fuck out of Timesplitters & Halo 2 - I really do hope Karl has played Timesplitters since it's one of the most badass game series of all time.
What's sad is I would watch RUclips videos of a 35 year old drinking and talking about facts...as long as it's Karl and Brad doing it.
You know what Spaced is so underrated and because you named that I actually think you do you research properly when I watched you guys at the start of last summer when your subs were a bit lower I’ve noticed that you guys are still sick
Spaced is underrated. It's one the few shows I've rewatched countless times. Love Edgar Wright
If fact fiend ever leaves I hope they all would still have personal vlogs or something.
The Romeo and Juliet bit in Hot Fuzz was hilarious his face when they started dancing and singing 😆
For a Hot Fuzz thing that I think not a lot of people would notice (my dad only did because we paused it just at the right moment), at the pub shootout, when the camera is pointed at the couple owning the pub while they're shooting, a small chalkboard is seen with "2 shooters 4 the price of 1" in the bottom right-hand corner that's only on screen for a few seconds
Idk if Karl knew about this, but I think it's a fun detail and adds to Edgar Wright's prowess as a director
Green man cosplayer walks into the Three Wangers and gets barred
I want to just clarify that chekhov's gun is actually originally a concept of literature, not filmmaking. But, since it's still storytelling, the concept transfers over to the new medium.
Does anyone else want them to upload completely unedited drinking videos so you can drink with Karl as he’s drinking?
They do those on Karl’s personal channel. There are occasional cuts but are mostly unedited versions of the main videos.
I am currently drinking a beer and watching him drinking.. so yeah
Wow you guys actually replaced all your links with the guy who made two finger Johnny. Nice.
I just found your channel and i am loving it my guy! 😂 keep it up i love how your vids are like a sitdown chat w a friend makes the vids really approachable and friendly
Considering the outro of this installment I find it really ironic that I stumbled upon it on Feb 2 2024, the day Karl retired the channel.
I really needed you guys tonight, it's been a sad day and you made it that little bit brighter.
Karl and Brad, y'all are amazing and make me laugh on a daily basis. Plus all of your videos have taught me something new
That end slate reminded me of that viral tweet of that guys dad being banned from a pub once. Y'know, the:
My coworker told me he got banned from a bar
when he lived in North Dakota back in 1973 and
didn’t try going back to it for 30 years but he finally
did and the moment he stepped in someone yelled
“Get the hell out of here Dennis” And that’s probably
my favorite story ever
Karl, your way of spinning a tale will never go out of fashion, particularly in a pub
Real talk, Shaun of the Dead was a great film
*Dead good* , even
...I'm not sorry
Of you give a zombie a name wouldn't that be... *Dead naming*
What the hell are you doing here krook? Go back to memeing on OW videos already!
No one ever says "dead good" lmao
You'll be sorry.
DEAD sorry!
Dont be sorry
honestly a pub run by Kyle sounds really fun. Imagine him, like 50 years old, sitting down with you while you drink and telling you funny facts and stories about the world
I mean Rick Beato has a following and he’s in his 50’s-60’s, i’d be happy to watch a drunk man give out facts no matter the age
On the whole relevancy post-script thing, I don't think you need to worry - A lot of the youtubers in the retro tech community like Techmoan and The 8 Bit Guy are easily in their 40s (or at least look like it) and seem to still have some success
Omg, that description! Fact Fiend is the best! Literally followed up on their word and removed their own links to shout out Kevin MacLeod. :D
Does anyone else just read the back green screen? Because I love all the random sort of video references they put in the back of the video.
I like the casual bottle flips he does all the time
I remember the first time I ever watched this movie. I had bought a dvd player and when I got it home and plugged it in, it immediately took me to the main menu lol
simon peg and nick frost are just the best acting duo ever
You could have said you were 22 and I would've believed you.
facts
OMG Karl would make the perfect Moe Szyslak with Moe's quick witted one liners to his hobo boxing, killer whale smuggling, and other side hustles. All Karl needs now is an apron, towel, and a queen's accent. Not to mention the loaded shot gun behind the bar just like "Hot Fuzz". I would prank call his bar every week.
"Hey, Hey, Hey! If you're gonna beat up my customers there's a 2 drink minimum " Classic Moe.
That’s what this guy reminds me of! Watching these videos is like going out to the bar and having a convertsaion with the bar tender!
The best scene is the act like a zombie moment, Nick’s stupid display and Barbara who’s just shell shocked
I have given up my life of nihilistic hedonism in part due to this channel. Finding humour in everything has become my soul purpose in life. However I will gladly degenerate back into a drunken stupor and waste all my time and money at your pub Karl.
Also, having your videos from Smallwood's pub would be perfect.
Happy belated birthday to you both. I dunno, 35yo talking about facts and drinking is eternal. Every pub. Every quiz night. Just don't go full Cliff Claven.
Spaced is one of the greatest things to have ever been on TV
Loved this. I love Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg and all, so I'd love to see them-rekated videos in the future if that's possible. That'd be great! (Obviously loved the Hot Fuzz one!)
IIRC the bit in the bar where Ed says that long drawn out plan that ends with something to the effect of "Then we come back here for shots" basically describes the entire story arc.
I remember seeing it on the DVD extras one time years ago.
I still have my Blu-Ray somewhere...
my favourtite thing about i was how nick lists of the things they should do tomorrow and its just what they do, bloody mary and ending with shots back at the pub
Two finger Johnny! I absolutely believed this was just your theme song! I can now listen to it for longer than the few seconds at the end of each video!
I wana see Karl become the "David Attenborough" of facts on RUclips 🤣
I will watch you guys as long as you guys post new videos. Love you guys.
I look forward to frequenting Ye Olde Bigge Wangere
If you don’t know Edgar Wright, imagine what you would get if Quentin Tarantino was British.
The scene of beating the zombie to Queen is one of my favorite bits
One of my favorite channels talking about one of my favorite movies....nice.
10:50 I love you lots commitment. Checked the description and it you man legit replaced the your social media with his 👏🏾
The best part of this video is that they actually did only put links to Kevin Macleod's channels. Fucken Troopers
Wow they actually put it in the description. I love these gius
I'd watch a 35 year old person drink and talk about facts
lmfao, I love this channel, you actually put kevin macleods links in the description instead of yours. you fucking legends
When I hear Two Finger Johnny, I can't help but sing "A great big convoy, A great big convoy, A great big convoy..."
You forget that it's not just facts people watch for, it's the banter and it's entertaining even when your talking about, urgh, frozen, but I still watched it and I was at work where people are more used to me listening to slayer...
Whole vid all I can think of is the Shaun the sheep theme tune. Also drinking vid at end end of a term hell yeah
Hot Fuzz is still one of my all time fav movies, but shaun of the dead was pretty damn good! Great Vid!
If Karl ends up opening up a pub one day, I will happily travel to the UK to have a pint and listen to his stories.
mate keep making them. We'll keep watching em
You should cal your pub The Fiend.
"pop down the fiend for a couple?"
"Yes lad"
If you can't afford to pay your actors and they're doing it as a favor to you because they love your work, you don't give them an uncredited part. Especially if you slather them in makeup. Holy Hell, Ed. At least pay them in exposure.
Also: Smallwood's Big Wanger.
That run in cod 4 they talk about is even funnier because at the end of it price is shouting orders for things he’s already done because the game can’t deal with him going so fast and he’s stood there for like 5 seconds shouting FLASHBANG THROUGH THE DOOR
Love the “Shredder” t-shirt
When Ed slides up in the car, "what's up, my niggas?". That's the best scene in the movie.
So many dvd sales every charity shop in the uk has at least 4 copies per store
To think this movie has traumatised me to the point I now have a phobia of zombies. Don't watch zombie movies in the dark when you a kid boys and girls
I watch Spaced about 11 years ago, It was already a bit old by the time I watched it I enjoyed it so much I invited a friend over we watched the whole thing again, over the course of the next few days. And he said it was the best thing he had seen movies/t.v. Moral of the story Spaced if fucking amazing
When he's flipping the bottle I keep seeing little skips in the vid he's definately dropping the bottle or messing up some way 😂
The best part of this video is Brad telling himself to not leave that accidental dick joke in
I never noticed Martin Freeman was in this movie until I watched this video
I managed a pub pretty much as Karl described. We had a group of retired guys who drank enough to keep the place open after the smoking ban. Love to planet old
Great video guys! Love Shaun of the Dead! The ending was a little depressing though! I’m a youtuber too and it’s terrifying to know that after 35 if I’m still doing RUclips it’s game over!!!!!! Love the vids, keep up the good work guys!
I haven't seen a vid in a while and "IT'S A DRINKING VIDEO" and I see the tattoo is more filled than I remember
Ha! I've actually used Kevin McLeod's stock music for a short film for school. He's a treasure
I look forward to the April fools episode filmed from the waist down
this
I consider that quote near the end, "more than you think, less than you'd hope," to be a Best Friends quote. Normally I'd be excited but now I'm sad.
“First rule of the Fact Fiend Pub, don’t talk about Fa-“ *immediately gets thrown out, Mr. T style*
The way that man spins that vodka while drinking scares the shit out of me
I would watch a 35 year old man drinking and talking about facts
I know id still watch, you guys are great
Being drunk during one of these drinking vids is the best.
I noticed a funny little goof just after Shaun's step dad turned into a zombie they are walking in that backyard alley if you look in the background you can see a car and a person jogging by
I'm impressed at how good these videos are, given that Fact Fiend as a name sounds like a generic top 10 list channel
"Big Wangers Pub"
You have earned one more subscriber, good sir
One of the best movie I've ever seen..still one of my favorite movies I have the sweater with the Winchester logo on it
okay, you've done a hot fuzz video and now a Shaun of the dead video. DO THE WORLDS END.
The Cornetto Trilogy is my favourite comedy of all time
The second season of spaces might be the best television ever made
