Do American brehs like Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz? As a UK breh they're two of my favourite movies, so funny and endlessly re watchable, but wondering if people across the pond share the same sentiment?

i LOVE both of those movies. Hot Fuzz is so fukking amazing.

Really good movie, so good not even Ansel Elgort could fukk it up.
And shockingly the theater I went to was packed which has not been the case for any Edgar Wright movie I have seen.

I liked it. I didn't love it.

Eiza Gonzalez though

Had me in the theater like

Damn brehs this movie is THAT good? I was initially thrown off cause the premise seems like it had been done so many times before (skilled youth gets involved with some shady characters, one of which he happens to fall for before realizing there's a Judas in the group). Still on the fence about going to pay for it but I may have to check this out

Hm. Probably Scott Pilgrim. Doesn't mean its bad just my least favorite

Scott Pilgrim is a modern day Ghostbusters in my book.

 

[Lord Beasley]

For a movie with a shytty name, it was one of the best films I've ever seen.

Auditory bliss

Both do almost everything and do it well. Both are loaded with comedy, drama, action, supernatural, romance etc. Memorable side characters, quotables for days, great VFX, great music, main villain is the least interesting part in both films, both can be watched as popcorn films but both are much deeper, works for kids and adults.

Scott Pilgrim is masterful filmmaking. it'll never get its due though... i mean, lets be real for a sec, the story is pretty damn stupid. i'm sure that didn't connect with most people, not to mention they dont't like Michael Cera for some reason

Most ppl don't like him because he's a Canacac, for lack of a better term

Personally I don't think there are stupid stories, only stupid ways to tell them. I think the biggest problem was the timing of it's release, it was ahead of the times. I'd be really shocked if the avg. american 15 year old would not love this movie if it came out in 2017.

Amazing movie

Visual, directing, humor, action, storytelling was fresh and pace kept moving quickly

That's not even the plot.

Although the actual plot has been done many times before again too.
