OK Shaun of the Dead is hilarious.

[texas1928]

This is a great movie.

[Wickerman]

1. FUCK-A-DOODLE-DO!

Who died and made you fucking king of the zombies?

[texas1928]

9. THe part where his friend wrecks the car.

"but you were parked."

Great.

[DS1]

2. Pretty good, yeah

:-)

[theshadow]

Yes it is.

We rented it, not knowing if it was going to be funny or stupid. To our surprise.... it was (as you said) hilarious.

[motely36]

3. It is the best movie I have seen in a while

Funny, funny, funny.

[Kraklen]

4. Agreed.

It's a fantastic comedy, and as a zombie movie it's actually a better zombie movie than any of the recent others, even ignoring the satire.

[democracyindanger]

5. You watching it on DVD or Cinemax?

There's some great extra stuff on the DVD, like what happened when he led the zombies away from the pub.

[texas1928]

22. Watching it on Cinemax

Decided I needed to see it.

[Kerrytravelers]

6. We saw it when it opened in America. Loved it.

We absolutely cracked up. We're great fans of the Romero "... of the Dead" movies, so we really had a charge with Shaun.

I understand that these characters or the storyline is something that the British recognize. Maybe a skit from a SNL-esque show? Je ne sais pas, but it was hysterical!

[biscodawg]

can i get you

cunts anything to drink? :rofl:

[WCGreen]

11. That's when my sister made my nephew

take the DVD out of the player...

I caved and said, yes Elliot, you shouldn't listen to words like that.....

[biscodawg]

14. well in the states i can see that

but in GB from what I understand its not a big taboo like it is here. Still I took my mom to see it and she "lol"ed at that.

[Wcross]

19. Thats when the nephew should have went outside to play.

Then you and your sis could have enjoyed a great movie! I always look at the ratings to see if its appropriate for everyone who is going to watch the movie. If not, the underage individual is sent elsewhere. BTW- why did your sis think this movie was something her kid should watch?

[WCGreen]

21. The kid is 16....

I think sis went off on the deep end because of the "c" word

[Wcross]

23. I can see that aspect of it.

Women hate that term for some reason. It wasn't for the sake of the kid the dvd was ejected.

[bicentennial_baby]

7. Yes, it is

This zombie film afficionado gives it 2 bloody thumbs up! :D

[sundog]

8. classic stuff

i saw it twice :7

[ghostsofgiants]

10. Shit yes

Have you seen the TV series "Spaced"? It's like Shaun of the Dead without the zombies. Great stuff.

[texas1928]

12. Nope I haven't but I may have too.

this is hilarious.

[ghostsofgiants]

15. You must...

it's my second favourite "britcom" after 'Black Books,' which stars Dylan Moran, the dude who played David in 'Shaun'.

[LeftyDarthBrodie]

25. Spaced is brilliant

I wish American tv was as good as British tv. In terms of sitcoms we've got Arrested Development and Scrubs and they've got The Office, Extras, Da Ali G. Show and Spaced.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

13. Holds up under many repeated viewings.

It's funny, yes, but I've seen funny movies that I've tried to watch a second time and went "what was I THINKING?"

This one is funny the second, third, fourth time...and beyond. The part with the record collection slays me EVERY time. IT's one of those "more cowbell" moments...brilliant.

:toast:

[name not needed]

16. You've got red on ya.

I fuckin' love that movie.

[texas1928]

17. He chased me around the garden with a bit of wood.

You have to catch all the dialog going on.

[DrGonzoLives]

18. Alriiiight, gaaay

That movie is an instant classic.

[biscodawg]

20. your signature

is the best ever!!!

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

24. Did you notice how they "zombyfied" the general populace b4 the

real zombies took over?


Rich!
