Hey! UK AICN READERS - Here's A Hot Fuzztival for you + a DVD signing with the boys!!!!
Hey folks - Harry here with a note from Edgar Wright regarding an event he's hosting in London... with a live commentary for HOT FUZZ thrown in. You UKers often gripe about having the short end of the stick, but this time, that short end is being fellated nicely. Get your ass in line and get in. It'll be a blast! Here ya go with the details...
Come to The Hot Fuzztival
It’s Free!!!
Join Hot Fuzz Director, Edgar Wright at the Prince Charles Cinema on June 10th as he takes you through his film inspirations for the action comedy box office smash Hot Fuzz. The film out to own and rent on DVD from June 11th will be shown along with exclusive live commentary from the director and cast from the film in the evening…and it’s all free!
Showing times are as follows:
11:00 Hard Boiled
13:45 Last Boy Scout
16:30 Point Break
20:00 Hot Fuzz with LIVE AUDIO COMMENTARY FROM EDGAR WRIGHT AND CAST FROM THE FILM!
Still not persuaded? Well here are some wise words from your Hot Fuzztival host…
“Hey muddy funsters. Join me at the Prince Charles Cinema on June the 10th for a marathon of hot cop action. Not only will we screen three of our favourite actions films, but you will get to see a totally unique live commentary from myself, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, as well as other special guests from our Bad Bobby opus HOT FUZZ.
And who can argue with the triple whammy of John Woo's classic HARD BOILED, the bruising, hilarious LAST BOY SCOUT and the palpable homo erotic tension of POINT BREAK.
I will be your host for the day, will join you in watching the marathon of bad-assery and will be flinging a few goodies and surprises your way.
Come join. First come, first served. And totally free.
Get there early. The hardcore will be duly rewarded.
Edgar”
If you’re one of the few yet to see Hot Fuzz it offers a hilarious and ultimately British take on a classic Hollywood genre. Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) is the finest police officer London has to offer, with an arrest record 400% higher than any other officer on the force. He’s so good, he makes everyone else look bad. As a result, Angel’s superiors send him to a place where his talents won’t be quite so embarrassing – the sleepy and seemingly crime-free village of Sandford.
With garden fêtes and neighbourhood watch meetings replacing the action of the city, Angel struggles to adapt to his situation. He finds himself partnered with Danny Butterman (Nick Frost), an oafish but well meaning young Constable. Just when Angel consigns himself to policing wilderness, a string of outrageously violent and bizarre ‘accidents’ lead him to believe that Sandford is not as idyllic as it initially seemed.
Determined to investigate these mysterious ‘accidents’ with his loyal partner PC Butterman by his side, he sets out to uncover the dark underbelly this small town could be hiding. Is Angel simply losing his mind in the safest, sweetest village in Britain? Or is something far more sinister at work? A small village is about to get some big city justice.
The film also features a killer supporting cast including Jim Broadbent, Timothy Dalton, Edward Woodward, Rafe Spall, Paddy Considine, Billie Whitelaw, Anne Reid, Olivia Colman, Bill Bailey, Martin Freeman, David Bradley, Stewart Wilson and Paul Freeman and plenty of other INCREDIBLE surprises!
Don’t miss out on the MUST OWN action comedy of the year on DVD 11th June.
There's also a signing with Edgar, Nick and Simon the day after the Fuzztival (June 11th to be exact - ie UK DVD release day) at the HMV - 150 Oxford St. London W1 The Sharpies start flying at 1pm. More signings to be announced soon, but that's a definite! Enjoy, you lucky Londoners!
