Good morning juicers! This single post episodic blog series is about whatever is in my head when I am awake. Since Maggie and I finished up Hot Fuzz last night, a movie by Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, I thought I would say a few interesting things about it.

For everyone who has seen Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, you may have noticed that they follow in the same comedic style of movie rediculousness. They were partially parody (Shaun of the Dead being zombie horror and Hot Fuzz being an action flick) but at the same time remained much more true to the content than other parody films like Scary Movie or Spartains or any of those films. The style is very unique. And yet his other films, like Run Fatboy Run, are not in this same vein. In order to categorize these films, he has put Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz into a trilogy that he calls the “Blood and Ice Cream” trilogy, clearly for their ridicilousness. The third movie has yet to be released, was called or codenamed “The World’s End” and is a science fiction spoof. Ice cream plays a role in all of these films, where red strawberry ice cream played a part in Shaun of the Dead (representing blood), blue ice cream in hot fuzz (for the police force) and green ice cream will likely be featured in the next movie.
Anyhow. Thats all. Just my thoughts for the morning!

Oh, and Simon Pegg and his doofy partner Nick Frost were flatmates before doing movies. Which Maggie thought was cute.

Favorite quote of the movie Hot Fuzz: “Did you tell him to cool off?”

Final post thought. I would properly link this post up and quote and reference but if I don’t pay attention to Maggie right now she is going to kill me. Sorry Brian. Blame her.
