Are you all about the cornetto trilogy? Or do you prefer his trips stateside?
Both
Many of these sonic manipulations Wright stole from Raimi, & I'm sure he'd be the first admit it.
@@silverdropstudios7323 Both is good
¿Por qué no los dos?
@@timespace.productions7513 stole. It's just using similar sonic manipulation. They didn't belong to Raimi.
I will always feel excited when someone is doing an Edgar Wright Analysis
Same hahah
what if a pedophile did an edgar wright analysis, would you still feel excited?
@@JJJackson777 WTF man?
not even 9am & i've got under @@satanthesickcunt's skin, what a day
I wonder if Edgar Wright also storyboards his sounds.
no doubt!
He did in Baby Driver
Scott Pilgrim vs. The world: Best and most underated comic adaptation of all time...
This is all great stuff, but I'm amazed you didn't mention Spaced. His comedic use of cinematic action sound taken to the extreme for mundane things was tied to the way the show spoofed blockbuster movies. I expected Hot Fuzz to be entirely spoof, but it was so much more. It made me realise that Wright's so good at utilising those techniques that he achieves not only the comedic effect, but the original intended effect also, and more. Everything he does, I find wildly entertaining. Watching his films gives me the same kind of joy as watching Road Runner cartoons as a kid.
One of the best videos discussing Edgar Wright's style. Learned a lot, thanks!
i think we can all agree that his best sound design is from Spaced when tyres starts raving out of ordinary everyday sounds.
Holy shit, yes!
this video gave me whiplash
but jesus christ i really love wright's timing and edit its so good
Thanks dear for watching my movies fee free to massage me on my Google Hangouts
@@edgarwright6401 Edgar nooo
Egdar Wright is a genius, sooo overlooked. Also, I love your videos - as intricate and special as Mr Wright's sfx!
Wonderful analysis, as usual. Thanks.
Also kind of fun rewatching Spaced episodes with Wright’s inventive use of sound in mind.
I'm still salty that he never got to direct his Ant Man movie. I wonder how different it would have been to the one that was actually released.
i think we should start a movement.

He dodged a bullet. Can you emagine how depressing it would have been, for somebody so creative and unconventional, being bossed around by Disney and Marvel?
@@karlkarlos3545 I think Taika Waititi already taught them that lesson about how successful they can be if they let an unconventional genius work magic without interference
@@thezoid.withfreaky04 I don't think they are capable of learning. That's why Edgar Wright quit the cooperation in the first place.
And no disrespect to Taika Waititi, but Thor: Ragnarok could have been directed by everyone.
@@karlkarlos3545 I respectfully disagree. "anybody can direct thor" is exactly the mentality that made the previous thor movies mediocre. Taika changed the game for them with HIS approach.
Even if you watch his early tv show Spaced, which is brilliant as well, he uses sound a lot
this was genuinely excellent to watch thank you.
DUDE!
WHAT?
ITS TOTALLY REAL
WHO?
THE CHANNEL OF MY DREAMS

seriously thank you for making video! really well done!such a fascinating aspect of my favorite director
Haven't seen all his work, but all I could thing of was "punch that s#$t" glad you included it😂😊
I loved this video, TDI! I made something very similar for The Matrix. Sound is often the silent partner in our appreciation for the craft of a scene, glad to see you tackling it! xx
Amazing breakdown. Thanks a lot! :)
and now i feel compelled to rewatch one of his movies aah. Great video.
fantastic video essay, as always
Thanks dear
this was awesome.
Bro you're speaking my language Edgar Wright.
Edgar wright is a king to me 😍
I can see film students watching this in class
I mean...it also takes skilled Sound Designers to make this happen as well...
I would have thought he would’ve mentioned all the reversed sounds used throughout the movies.
un hermoso ensayo
Fuck yeah great topic
Squeaky chairs are directors' best friends..😎👍
song at 7:48?? such nostaligia
Found it: Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400
Ahhh, the classics!
How tf did i end up here. I was suppose to do some research on something way different to film analysis
Inspiration or plagiarism from every frame of paintings edgar wright video.....
It just its own video of edgar wright movies?
I dont find this style of cinema to be any more entertaining, personally. I think much of these examples of sound effects are beyond complimentary. Some of these are excessive to the point it's goofy- which may or may not be what you're going for
