I enjoyed Shaun of the Dead.

Hot Fuzz was pretty stupid, in my opinion. A few funny parts, but I doubt I'll ever watch it again.

Never planned on seeing Scott Pilgrim vs The World since I really hate Michael Cera, and find him to be a terrible actor. Ok, maybe not terrible, but not too good. I don't like actors who pretty play the same role in every movie, it just shows they are a one-trick pony. He does great being the nerdy-nervous teen, but come on after Arrested Devolopment I was tired of that role.

I saw ScotPilgrim recently and thought it was quite good. Much more entertaining then Shaun of the Dead in my opinion. I'm not that into Michael Cera myself.

I guess I'll have to look into it. But for some reason I still can't find the motivation to want to see it.

It's a fun movie. If you're in the mood for something ridiculous with action and video game references then you should check it out. It made me happy to hear that Beck did a lot of the music too.

Scott Pilgrim is a great movie. I suggest reading the comics after because I will say Michael Cera ruined Scott for me. He play Scott so pathetic and whiny and I hate it. Scott was an awesome cool guy but Cera just makes him so wimpy.

The comic interests me, but the art of it doesn't. I have a hard time reading comics that don't have really good art. (They're all small and "chibi" right?)

Not really chibi. It's not a japanese are style at all. The art is kinda crappy but I personally love it.

Edgar Wright is one of my many directing heroes. I love all three of his movies. I also love the Scott Pilgrim comics, so when I found out he was directing the SP movie, I was exstatic, and not disappointed in the end.

HAHA! WOW! I own Shaun Of The Dead and while I love it to death it is the weakest of his films in my opinion. Hot Fuzz is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen and is one of my all time favorite comedies. I have a thing for English Humor though.

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World is an amazing film that I felt did not get the credit it deserved in theaters. I can not say enough how much I just loved this film. I have seen it about 20 times now and Hot Fuzz I have seen an incalculable amount of times lol!

This guy has tremendous talent and I love his movies!

Cheers! ^_^

Hot Fuzz are one of my favourite films, possibly of all time. (Buddy cops! Nans with guns! That one was right up my street haha) I'm not a big fan of zombie films so I didn't enjoy Shaun of the Dead that much. Couldn't sit through more than 15 mins of Scott Pilgrim for some reason.

What I will always remember him most for, however, along with his pals Pegg and Frost, is the utterly brilliant series that is Spaced. smile

One of the most talented directors out there at the moment
