This one was a fun one! Very captivating and an amazing soundtrack. I watched this on Amazon Prime for those who are curious. 

Until the next one, take care. Hope you're all doing well and stay golden!

Happy to see Natalie enjoy a musical.

If you want to see more Jon Hamm, I recommend Confess, Fletch available on Paramount+.

I can attest the truest part of this movie is the Atlanta traffic

Like all Edgar Wright movies, this is one that actually gets better with each rewatch, regardless if there's character or plot depth. It comes down to his talent for layering microdetails into the movie that are fun to catch upon subsequent viewings. With the music, there's obvious examples of Baby being in sync with the world around him. But also the entire movie is in sync with the music if you really look at it. Even little things like laying money on a table, or the gunshots when the last heist goes south, or just how the editing is in sync with all the music. Many movements from the actors in nearly every scene are in sync with the music, as are the cuts. It is very much a 1 hour 52 minute music video. (Which is based on a concept from an actual music video that Edgar Wright created early in his career.) There's also the opening credits scene where all the graffiti on walls and poles surrounding Baby contain the lyrics to the song Harlem Shuffle. The actors' movements, the editing, the sound effects, it's all slave to the music for nearly two hours. And you mentioned how his sunglasses keep getting broken or lost once his groove is lost. Even I didn't quite pay much attention to that until now, and I've watched this movie a few times. (Also, there is zero rhythm whenever we hear the tinnitis.) Again, it's not a deep movie, but Edgar Wright is nonetheless a master of execution. Of how to move a camera, editing, editing with music, and just making whatever it is happening not only interesting, but also have all these wonderful little easter eggs along the way. (There's sooooo many in the Cornetto Trilogy, I'm sure people have told you about, like all the names of the twelve pubs in The World's End describing what's going to happen and often what happened in 1990. And the fountain plaque in Hot Fuzz towards the beginning lists everyone whodunnit.) I really enjoyed rewatching this with you. Not just to see your reaction, but because I started seeing things I missed before that I only just noticed! I have that experience with EVERY Edgar Wright movie! (Last Night in Soho, his latest film, is great too by the way. It's has a few flaws as his weakest film, but it's still solid.)

I love Nat’s surprise at a fast and agile Subaru. Literally one of the best racing car companies of all time.

I love that bit near the start where baby is flipping channels at home and it literally tells the entire plot of the movie channel by channel. A moment meant entirely for your second viewing. So smart.

Random movie suggestion that I hope ends up in a future poll: Midnight Run (assuming Nat hasn't seen it, and I'd be a little shocked if she had).

JC Evitt

One of my favorites for sure. I hope you react to Peaky Blinders some time, i watch it all the way through a few times every year.

First time watch and I really enjoyed it! 😁 Also, hear me out, Jon Hamm’s character was great right up until the deafening part 😅 even when he was trying to kill Baby, my dude just lost his wife 😔 I don’t condone his actions but I understand them 😂 Really thought he was gonna help Baby get out of the game after he was relating to his music 😮‍💨

This movie hits special to me. I was in a car accident as a kid and had terrible tinnitus ever since. No one died though. Completely unrelated, I have been in a police chase but thats a story for another day.
