And I think my friends are going to lynch me now, but I didn’t get what all the fuss was about. Maybe I was expecting too much due to hype, or maybe it’s because the copy I was watching had sub-par audio, but it’s a comedy; that shouldn’t matter yeah?
I just…didn’t think it was that funny. There were a few good one-liners, but I was somehow anticipating more, I dunno, volume.
It did have an interesting style to it, but there wasn’t enough movie underneath that for me I guess.
Now one useful thing I can say is: those old incomprehensible British guys? That is *sort of* what old people from where I grew up sound like, except in a different way (since I didn’t grow up in England).

How man shitty cop movies from the 80’s have you seen?
None that bore any resemblance to the first hour or so of Hot Fuzz.
Well, right. The comedy is in the transition from a modern looking and feeling movie into shitty cop movie tropes, demonstrating just how absurd the shitty cop movies are.
I agreed with you, Seth. I thought it would be funnier than it actually was. I remember the promo being so funny but was disappointed in the movie overall.
