Hot Fuzz/Trivia: Difference between revisions

* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Of course, [[Shaun of the Dead|Shaun]]/[[Spaced|Tim]] as Nicholas Angel and [[Shaun of the Dead|Ed]]/[[Spaced|Mike]] as Danny Butterman.

** Stephen Merchant, co-creator of ''[[The Office]]'' as P.I. Staker.

** The bad guy from ''The Mask of Zorro'' is a doctor. He'll deal with it.

*** Yeah, motherfucker.

** DC Cartwright is played by [[Shaun of the Dead|Noel/Noodle]], and DS Wainwright is [[The Bourne Ultimatum|Simon Ross]].

** [[Peep Show|Sophie]] as PC Doris Thatcher

** Manny from [[Black Books]] is an administrator for the local Police Service.

*** And The Cleaner is the other Sgt. Fisher.

*** According to the DVD commentary, the ''[[Shaun of the Dead]]'' DVD was actually the Spanish version of the film, title and all.

**** Another shout out to ''[[Shaun of the Dead]]'', when Nicholas and Danny are chasing the shoplifter, they come across a row of fences where Nick says "What, you've never taken a shortcut before?"

** Outsider cop visits a small town and discovers an evil's cult plot? Sounds like ''[[The Wicker Man]]''. Bonus points since Edward Woodward (who played the cop in the original Wicker Man) appears in the film.

*** Well technically, the {{spoiler|NWA}} is not an evil cult, but a [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]] association [[Gone Horribly Wrong]].

*** Looks more like The Mariachi in [[Desperado]]

** The lines in the beginning of ''[[Shaun of the Dead]]''.

'''Nicholas Angel''': Cornetto. }}

** [[Shaun of the Dead|"You've got red on you."]]

** {{spoiler|Mr. Thatcher}} firing a Winchester Model 1887 - sawn off - is a reference to ''Terminator2''.
