I don't mind anyone mentioning Hugh Grant as long as it's not in a positive context. If you want to talk about a Hugh in a good way then make sure it's Laurie since he's awesomeness personified. :monster:

Thank God for Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright for giving British comedy films some goddamn respect after years of sappy crap.
 
The only Simon Pegg things i have seen are Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, which i thought were awesome! Haven't seen Run Fatboy Run yet though, but i want to :D
 
I've heard Run, Fat Boy, Run isn't of their usual standard, probably because Frost isn't in it. I've had it on my laptop for months now, but never got around to watching it.
 
You'll be right, it's not as good as other Pegg films but still decent enough to warrant a viewing although it is a very hit/miss film depending on who you are. It's a different sort of comedy from the Pegg/Wright films since it's directed by Schwimmer this time, none of the Spaced/SotD/HF apart from Pegg was involved with it. Still Dylan Moran makes a great duo with Pegg and makes up for a lack of Frost.

PA I'd suggest you'd watch Spaced if you've loved SotD and Hot Fuzz, I can't recommend it enough.

If he was it wasn't as a main character or even as a lesser one, I think some of the cast of Spaced were some of the runners in the marathon so if he was there it was probably being involved with that.
