I remember reading that Darth Maul never blinked, either, which is a pretty cool thing. Not blinking is one of those small, subtle things that makes you realize that this person is hosed up.

It tells a very relevant story about immigration and the Coneheads are actual characters that you end up really rooting for. It also has a bunch of legit good sci-fi moments(narfle the garthok).

While not subtle in any way, I did appreciate in Annihilation when the backpack was shown covered in duct tape after the boathouse scene.

I finally rewatched Quantum of Solace last night, and noticed a fun little gimmick that someone else has thankfully already uploaded to YouTube. When Bond is talking to M on the phone and asking them to look someone up, he says "Greene, G - R - Double E - N - E", and the computer starts to type "GRWE", thinking the "double" was "Double-U" before correcting itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_2hroyGKSs

Perennial thread favourite Hot Fuzz. I noticed on my most recent watch that Danny really does take the effort to become a better policeman officer, and you can see him begin using the updated vocabulary guidelines throughout the movie and even reading them at one point.

I might have said this in the thread before but the old lady who calls Nick Angel a fascist uses a Sten gun in the gunfight at the end of the movie. The Sten gun was a submachine gun manufactured by the British for WWII.

Hot Fuzz is one of those movies where you can always spot something new, like one of the Andy’s trying to smoke a sopping wet cigarette in the rain scene, or that the church roof needing to be fixed was both the reason for the fair and how they were able to murder someone by pulling a piece off.

I like how all the characters have job names, like Tailor and Grocer. Except for Nicholas, because he doesn't belong there.

Although that scene was shot from behind the counter so it was almost certainly a different cheaper piece of glass brought in specifically to break. I guess there's some stupid 80's or 90's cop movie where bullets just ricochet off glass that they can say was being parodied.

Just pulled it up on Netflix. Glass shatters into a million pieces, but it's almost off frame and from a different angle so it's not the insanely expensive glass. "nothing like a bit girl on girl." I think the lady cop actress is going to be the next Queen in the Crown series.

Olivia Colman is such a fantastic actor. I don’t know if you’ve watched Broadchurch but she does such a good job in that series. If you haven’t watched it yet, fair warning, it is bleak.

Her career is just so genuinely, delightfully weird if you're not paying full attention to her. She crops up in a bunch of the internet-favorite late 00s British comedies like Mitchell and Webb and Look Around you, she's a constant fixture on Peep Show, she gets a couple bit parts in larger things like Hot Fuzz... and then you're not looking for a couple years and suddenly she's a serious dramatic actress on Broadchurch and then gets cast as the Queen. I'm sure it was a more understandable transition for people who follow British media more closely, butfor me it was just "wait, who are we talking about? Her? Is 'Olivia Colman' the same person as 'Liv Colman'?"

She’s an absolute treasure. My favourite performance of hers is in the miniseries ‘Exile’, playing the sister of John Simm’s character as they try to untangle a family mystery that only their Alzheimer’s-ridden father has the answer to. Jim Broadbent plays the dad and it’s probably a 7 out of 10 script with a 10 out of 10 cast.

Tyrannosaur is probably her best performance. It’s a highly underrated movie and I recommend everyone checks it out

The last season of Walking Dead was like that where they were just burning through thousands of rounds that didn't leave any holes or break any windows. Even when they were shooting at cars with sparks everywhere showing the bullet strikes. But I was thinking Dirty Harry where Clint Eastwood talks about weak cop guns ricocheting off windshields.

It’s called Locke, and it’s by the creator of Peaky Blinders, an excellent British show which unfortunately doesn’t have Olivia Colman (yet)
