I used to think this was by far the weakest of the trilogy and Hot Fuzz was my easy favourite. It still is, but each time I watch this one, whilst the plot is not as "clever" as the other two, the performances blow me away. Pegg's portrail of Gary has real depth. At the start he just seems like a wastrel and a loser. But you slowly realise what a desperately sad and tragic character he is, planning one last pub crawl with his friends before ending himself (having tried before - hence the bandages on his wrists). It is then that the realisation sets in that the opening scene isn't an Alcoholics Anonymous session, but rather it is a mental health group therapy session for people who have attempted it... Nick Frost really gives 100% in his performance too. His character is 180 degrees different to those he normally plays yet he pulls it off with aplomb. Do either of them look out of their depth? I don't think they do despite being surrounded by acting heavyweights like Eddie Marsan (Vera Drake, Happy Go Lucky), Martin Freeman (The Hobbit, Fargo TV series), Paddy Considine (Dead man's Shoes, House of the Dragon). Pub Names :- The First Post - 1st Pub they visit. The Old Familiar - 2nd Pub looks identical to the 1st. The Famous Cock - 3rd Pub is where Gary is barred for being a dick. He's famous enough to be recognised years later and thrown out. The Cross Hands - 4th Pub. Crossed hands can be a symbol for teamwork. The guys have to work together in the toilet fight. The Good Companions - 5th Pub. So as not to attract attention, the guys pretend to have a good time with each other. The Trusty Servant - 6th Pub. Gary approaches the drug dealer to find out if he can trust him. Gary is told Robot means slave or servant in Czech. The Two-Headed Dog - 7th Pub, Sam meets the Twins, who talk in unison as if they are a two headed person. The Mermaid - 8th Pub. Just as mermaids seduced sailors, the marmalade sandwich seduce 3 of the guys to get their DNA. Also the pub sign is a redhead with a blonde either side. The Beehive - 9th Pub. Pierce Brosnan explains how the Robots work. Sounds like how an Ants nest or Bees are organised. The King's Head - 10th Pub. Look closely at the sign, looks like the face of Simon Pegg ie Gary KING's head. The Hole in the Wall - 11th pub. Car crashes into the pub, making a hole in the wall. The World's End - 12th pub. Our remaining heroes persuade the Aliens to sod off - leading to the end of the world. The Rising Sun. The pub that Gary and his blank buddies visit for "5 waters please..." Gary watched the sun rise looking over the town as a teenager after failing to do the Golden Mile. Also it's a new beginning for Gary symbolically.

I didn't like it as much as the other's originally, but it's really grown on me, I really like it now, but then I'm a similar age as the guys in this so the sound track is very nostalgic.

I don't care what others say - this is the best movie of the three. 👍

Most of the young reactors now haven’t seen the classic movies,suit,and couldn’t recognise most of the characters in that trailer,its just sad…..

Just out of curiosity who would you least want for company during an apocalypse Gary King or Ed from Shawn of the dead?

Try watching a film called Paul . Sort of number 4 in the trilogy !

The whole reason that Gary was doing the golden mile was so he could kill himself at the end, going out on a high. He brought no luggage with him because he knew he wouldn't need anything. Andy did not realise the full extent of Gary's plan until he saw the bandages from a previous attempt (so not actually an _AA_ group at the beginning) but he had realised that letting him keep drinking was only letting him head to destruction. Gary had essentially put on his full dress uniform with his 90's gear just like a soldier planning to end it all wearing his finery.

I thought this was the weakest of the trilogy. If I had seen it without any knowledge of the other two I probably wouldn't have made it through to the end.

If you like the 2 guys in this and Shaun of the Dead, you have to watch "Paul" from 2011

I completely understand why you prefer the other two over this one. I did too. Honestly I actually felt a little dissapointed first time I watched t The Worlds End. But since then I have watched all three of them DOZENS of times, and now this is by far my favourite. The callbacks and jokes are at least on par with hot fuzz, the action is surprisingly GREAT, but the story, the emotion, man it is just unmatched.

My fave movie of all time. Thank you so much guys for this upload. You rock!

If you can get an invading alien race to go "ah fuck it" and give up, then I think you can count the day as a win.

Yes! Someone laughed at "Kill the Queen!" That always makes me laugh and so many people think nothing of it.

I definitely liked The World's End better during repeat watchings. For one, it's a totally different thing when you go in already knowing Gary's deal. Though, as someone who was a goth and Sisters of Mercy fan who graduated high school in 1991, there were a few Easter eggs in here for me that might go past some people.

It's worth noting that, like Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, absolutely _everything_ that happens in the film is telegraphed beforehand. Take note, in the beginning (when he's describing the previous go) of what happens to every crew member: what bar they left at, why, and the exact wording used to describe what happens. It tells you the whole plot of the movie in about two minutes, but you never realize it until you are able to get all of the puns and references. It's brilliant.

There are that many pubs everywhere! My childhood highst had like 15 in a 1mile radius.

I wasn’t impressed upon first viewing - I was enjoying the film it started out as. But nowadays it’s my favourite. Although I think Hot Fuzz is objectively the best, by a pretty big margin.

My favourite of the three. I find Hot Fuzz funnier, but this reminds of a glorious night in 1998, in the summer between leaving school and going to uni. A completely impromptu piss-up; just three of us, bored, on a Friday night, and then more people just kept showing up. We were 18, just passed all our exams, had fuck all to do until September... epic night that came out of nowhere.

Hot Fuzz is definitely the funniest of the three. But in terms of personal opinion, this one is my favourite. I think it's the most emotionally driven of the three. Also, it came out at a time where it felt like all of my friends were moving on with their lives, where as I was kind of stuck in a rut. So there were some parts of Gary's character that resonated with me.

"I don't believe this, a man of your legendary drinking prowess drinking fucking rain."

Just found you guys (and subbed) and looking forward to more. Also hope you guys do the ten episode series Haunting of Hill House (best series ever) and Doctor Sleep, essentially the Shining part two, if you haven't seen either yet!! Regardless, I am exciting to see more from you two!!!

The other 'Andy' from hot fuzz was being shown around the house, by Martin at the start.

This is the most emotionally resonant of the cornetto trilogy. It is deeply underrated. Gary is so tragic. Also it's disturbing how many people are for Gary taking that last drink. It's like the whole Alcoholism and enabling aspect of the film just flies over peoples heads.

"To err is human, to forgive is divine"

Of the three this is the one I've seen grow on people more after subsequent watches, I liked it first time but liked it more after rewatching it and even rate it up there with Shaun of the Dead now, with Hot Fuzz being my favourite of the three, I just think Hot Fuzz was almost perfect and sooooo funny! It's been fun watching you react to all 3, has it tempted you to watch the tv series 'Spaced'? Which is where the Pegg and Frost onscreen bromance started, Wright also directed it.

I've always loved all three, but when I first saw them this was my least favourite of the trilogy. Now that I'm older, it's easily my favourite of the three.

👊🏻

👊🏻

Masterful performance by Eddie Marsan, both tragic and hilarious, a brilliant actor ( see Happy-Go-Lucky) 😊😊😊

The Finest of the Cornetto Trilogy for me, a masterpiece of a movie, not a wasted scene, no wasted dialogue and Gary King easily the best Character Simon Pegg ever did.

Hi guys, it's great you've finished the cornetto trilogy, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are a great double act. Please react to their hilarious stand alone movie; Paul (2011) They star as 2 nerds visiting ufo sites in America and encounter and alien of the title and help him to get back to his home planet. It's so funny!

Thanks for this guys. I love watching these reactions! My favourite channel on here! 😂 can't wait for more! All the best! :)

Sure, perhaps the least funny of the trilogy. But its standout feature is the portrayal of nostalgia. Not quite my time: I was young in the 1980s, but I'm sure those who were young in the 1990s (in the UK) will recognise a lot of the cultural vibe here. It's also a very moving depiction of a man who never grew up, desperate for his life to mean something. In my opinion one of Simon Pegg's best performances - the science fiction plot is there to make it crazy, and very necessary to keep things moving, but I don't think it's the primary theme at all.

You shouldn't ever say "I won't watch this again" about an Edgar Wright film, because until you've seen it ten times there are probably things you've still missed...

3:07 Haha! Good one. I always think this opening is a bit like The Blues Brothers too, but you're the first person I've seen mentioning it.

Thank you all for watching and completing the Cornetto Trilogy with us! Apologies about the audio at parts. We're going to try and upgrade our set up as soon as we can. Thank you all again!

This guy is so random it’s hilarious

Krypton is gonna save the movie.

The cameos in this are epic, the girlfriend at the start is Cate Blanchett! And the Santa with a knife is Peter Jackson of LOTR directorial fame!

I'm british, and I understood all 3 translations 😂

Not a Thompson ....think its a Bren Gun

Comic book accurate ! Love it !

Simon Skinner was played by Timothy Dalton, and Simon Pegg said in an interview that it was a thrill to exchange gunfire and win a fight with a former James Bond.

You ain’t seen hot fuzz (it’s a joke from the movie don’t hang me)

The World's End next. Then the TV series Spaced.

A perfect homely movie. Filmed 30 mins from me, this is genuinely what many of us sound like 🫠

Whatever you did to the sound in the editing is annoying af
