I tried watching Hot Fuzz a few months ago but fell asleep halfway through. I've been meaning to finish it but I found it really disappointing. When I first started it up, I was looking forward to a super funny movie since I've seen it praised here a lot. Instead, I got a movie with some clever dialogue/jokes and some occasionally funny moments but nothing worth the praise.

I want to like it but I feel like I'm missing something.

The OP leaving out The World's End is just unacceptable, especially if you have Hot Fuzz.

It isn't that good. Never understood the buzz. I have it because of the trilogy but not half as good as The World's End.

This is some advanced thread necromancy. However, I approve.

An Edgar Wright appreciation thread has to be longer than two pages. Like, by a lot.

Wow this is old.

I was about to post about how the list is missing World's End until I noticed the date.

Also, Hot Fuzz is still better than World's End. Experien is unacceptable. 😛

I did enjoy Scott Pilgrim so maybe it is just Hot Fuzz. I'll just move on and try The World's End and the other ones. If I like those I might give Hot Fuzz another shot.

Never understood the Hot Fuzz love either. Wasn't really my bag. Shaun and Pilgrim are among my favorites ever. So I should probably see his other stuff.
