The Cornetto Trilogy : Rank the 3 films

For me it’s :
1. Hot Fuzz
2. Shaun of the Dead
3. The Worlds End

But all 3 are brilliant,and if you add Dalton,Brosnan and the Pikelet into the mix it makes them even better .... you ?

    1. Shaun of the Dead (10/10)
    2. Hot Fuzz (10/10)
    3. The World's End (6/10)

    I love the first two, some of my favorite movies of all time! The World's End isn't bad, it's just really disappointing. I've only watched it once though, so maybe it'll get better on a second viewing.

    THE WORLD'S END
    SHAUN OF THE DEAD
    HOT FUZZ

    All equally enjoyable to me. Could easily shuffle around depending on my mood.

    I love Shaun and Hot Fuzz. Strangely, World's End was NOT a big enjoyment for me. I was never in the mood to watch itagain compared to the first two.

    I really enjoy them all, and Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz in particular. I've always though of the latter as a sort of Midsomer Murders gone crazy, and I find that hilarious!

    I thought exactly the same thing after the first viewing but the second improved it immensely,I just think it’s the ending that lets it down compared to the other two films.

    I think The World’s End is absolutely amazing. However, there’s probably a level of bias from a man who adores the soundtrack and is a big fan of British pubs.

    1. Hot Fuzz
    2. Shaun Of The Dead






    3. World's End

    I don't hate WE but it falls off compared to the other, I love HF & SOTD, WE just didn't feel it.

    1. Hot Fuzz
    2. World's End, I watched this again a couple of nights ago, it gets number two spot for nostalgia reasons. Its basically what we did in my late teens and upto mid twenties, though there were more bright lights and Aliens.
    3. Shaun of the Dead

    I am generally not a fan but I guess @barryt007 's ranking would be mine as well.

    I'd probably say the same as you, but on another day I might've said Shaun of the Dead was the best. I have a hard time choosing between the two of them.

    The World's End I wouldn't put on the same level but I don't think it was disappointing. I think it falls off slightly (very slightly) towards the end as there just weren't enough jokes imo, think it got too wrapped up in the plot, and the guy playing Pete just didn't fit for me. While the first two fired on all cylinders right to the very last minute and had pitch perfect casts. But I still think it's a great film and a worthy end to the trilogy. Deserves credit I think for flipping the Pegg/Frost dynamic round and has a brilliant point to make about the death of proper British pubs as large chains snap them up.

    I'd say the first two are both 10/10 films while The World's End is a 9.

    Just resurrecting this thread to share an absolutely delightful Hot Fuzz bloopers video, containing Timothy Dalton dropping several f-bombs rather hilariously at the 7-minute mark :D

    I recently rewatched the trilogy and I think my ranking of the final two changes every time, but:

    1. Shaun of the Dead
    2. The World's End
    3. Hot Fuzz

    My current Ranking is...
    Hot Fuzz
    The World's End
    Shaun of the Dead


    The World's End reminds me so much of my youth so it is just ahead of Shaun of the Dead.

    Did anyone watch the TV show Spaced?
