Im starting with a new movie..but I probably wont do new movies very often..because
well they just don't make them the way they used to so its very seldom that I watch a new one anymore and even more seldom that I like it.
but first..................
I probably do a mix of different movies and with a Halloween around the corner ..lots of them :)
I have a bad..I mean terrible movie addiction I watch movies pretty much everyday and all day if im not out doing something and on weekdays im usually inside with them watching them from 4pm-6am
I have 2 large over flowing shelves and more movies stored away.
I still watch vhs movies because I really prefer there film quality plus I grew up with them so its hard to just toss them away and act like they never existed just because something new came out besides they are already starting to faze dvd out for blueray.. I say old is better.
ok on with the movie
My husband got some free movie tickets from his work for being there for so long
and I have been looking forward to watching this movie for along time now waiting and watching for it to come to theaters..because I knew that it would be the best movie all year..
and I was right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So if you watched Shaun of the Dead and Hot fuzz and even the show spaced you will know that Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are the best team ever
This movie was great even better than I expected really..I still think I prefer Shaun of the Dead and Hot fuzz a bit more but still this was great!
One of the things I enjoy about these movies are all the familiar things the reuse of the fence and the cornetto the reuse of the same actors,
The plot of the movie ( maybe a couple of spoilers )
Gary king ( simon pegg ) decides to track down his old high school chums for the unfinished golden mile ( pub jumping ) they had attempted it 20 years earlier and had failed and that left Gary deeply troubled
when they get to the town..the notice everything has changed no one remembers them for the most part and the pubs seem different.
Gary goes to the bathroom and incounters a strange young man and talks to him the boy is rude and they get into a fight and the kid is STRONG will eventually his head gets knocked off and blue paint comes out..( it looked like blue paint )
the town has turned into robots.
Its a refreshing little science fiction comedy film
and it was the best movie that's came out in a really really really long time.
I guess Ill go ahead and talk about them while im at it :)
Hot fuzz 2007
When Josh asks whether I like Shaun of the dead or Hot fuzz best..I get brain freeze
I have no idea they are both great in so many different ways
though I probably watch Hot fuzz more than I do Shaun of the Dead..but I do own a Shaun of the Dead shirt..hmm
Some spoilers
Anyways Hot fuzz is great it reminds me of the Wicker man ( original not the crappy one with Nicholas Cage ) really its like Wicker Man lethal weapon or something
I love the whole idea of a murderous little English village who kills people who get in its way of winning the village of the year award
The village is like something out of Ms Marple or The Avengers ( not the comic but the 60s British tv show )
Its pretty much everything I could ask for in a movie it has it all
Comedy
Action
Murder
some mystery
small English town
cops
Out of my collection of movies this is probably one of my most watched.
"Point Break or Bad Boys II? "
Shaun of the Dead 2004
Comedy horror film..very light horror I got my mom to watch this awhile back and she actually liked it she tried saying later that she didn't ..but if she didn't like it why was she laughing..????
Shaun of the dead is the first of the movies
This is by far the best zombie movie..and it taught me that comedy goes along way with horror
I like the fact that this is on the light side because so many zombie movies aren't really scary they are just gross ( for example City of the living dead ) if I do a worst of I might mention that movie.
My only complaint with this movie is it always seems short..but I don't think it is..I think its just that I didn't want it to end.
The soundtrack is great everything about this movie is great!
After watching all of these if you haven't check out "Spaced"
you can probably find it on Netflix
That's it for now
subscribe and watch out for more.
