That would be awesome.  That's the kind of town I'd want to live in.  I'd be the resident Anglican Equalizer.

I'd want to live I that village fromHot Fuzz. I'd slash prices.

That movie disappointed me.  But for some reason I liked it the second and third times I watched it.

Shaun of the Dead is a slice of fried gold.

[Ed Anger]

I'm slashing grammar this morning apparently as well.

I've never given Hot Fuzz another try after my initial disappointment.

Well the wife and then her mom wanted to watch it, otherwise I might not've either.  I think I paid all of $1.99 for it on HD-DVD

Don't get the Hot Fuzz hate.  I thought it was wickedly funny on more levels than Shaun.

Maybe it's a cop thing, I dunno.

[garbon]

I didn't hate it - just didn't find it funny.

I think I enjoyed the earlier bits the most - where it's about a very "by the book" cop doing things a real cop would actually do, and everyone's reactions to that.

But it may be a prosecutor thing.

[Grey Fox]

Hot Fuzz was awesome.

[Razgovory]

I thought it was hilarious.

[FunkMonk]

Hot Fuzz was very funny.

 I wrote another sonnet today, elegy for a sunken city

As she slowly sinks into the sea
half-immersed in an earlier time
gondolas glide under st. mark's chimes
like traitors, giving tourists guides
to vaunted Venezia's sacred sights
assailed by the Adriatic's tides
declaring canals reflect dimming lights
what paean to Padania's past
will wake her from this fitful rest?
her glories were great, her grandeur vast
who else in Europe was so truly blessed
save for Florence and its savants,
those fellow remnants of the Rennaisance

[The Brain]

I didn't write a sonnet today.

[The Larch]

Hot Fuzz was worthy just for Timothy Dalton alone.
