Hot Fuzz
Edgar Wright’sCornetto Trilogyhas become a dearie among fans of funniness , but what ’s the story behind the collective name of these movie ? In 2004,Shaun of the Deadmarked the beginning of a comedy trilogy that would be known as theThree Flavors Cornetto Trilogy , or simplyCornetto Trilogy . All motion-picture show were train and co - compose by Edgar Wright , with Simon Pegg ( also co - writer ) and Nick Frost as the main adept .
The trilogy consists ofShaun of the Dead , Hot Fuzz , andThe World ’s End , all from dissimilar genres with drollery as the inter-group communication between the three – and Cornettos . Although all films admit a Cornetto ice ointment in one way or another , it ’s wide believe that this was planned from the beginning , but the story behind the name of the trilogy is slightly different than how most people might realize .

TheCornetto Trilogywasn’t conceived as such , and was n’t even name like that until the promotional tour ofHot Fuzz . The Cornetto inShaun of the Deadwas tot up to the narration by Wright as a hangover cure for Nick Frost ’s character reference , Ed , based on his own experiences . When they received free Cornetto ice creams at the after - party for the film , Pegg and Wright decided to add one in the next picture , Hot Fuzz , so they would get more free ice ointment . woefully , Cornetto did n’t send more free product , but it was the outset of the whole Cornetto Trilogy concept .
During the promo turn ofHot Fuzz , an interviewer taper out the Cornetto references in the two photographic film , with Wright jestingly say that they stand for a trilogy like Krzysztof Kieslowski’sThree Colorsfilm trilogy ( Blue , White , andRed , each one generally based on one of the three ideals of the French Republic ) . The third film , The World ’s End , was in development at that time , so add a Cornetto to it was no job .
Although the first Cornettos were n’t added with the purpose of being a contact between the films , that does n’t mean that just any flavor was going to be on the big screen . Edgar Wright is known for his attention to detail in all his picture , and these were no exception . Shaun of the Deadhas a strawberry mark Cornetto , in reference to the moving-picture show ’s automaton / fucking theme;Hot Fuzzfeatures the grim Cornetto , because it ’s a brother cop moving-picture show ; andThe World ’s Endhas the green mint drinking chocolate chip deoxyephedrine ointment , representing science fiction . This last film is also the only one that does n’t feature a grapheme rust a Cornetto , instead adding just the wrapper near the terminal of the film .
Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg have it off how to utilize what happens to them and around them to their advantage , as the wholeCornetto Trilogyconcept eventually draw more tending to the films . Fans can thank Cornetto for revolutionise the summation of the chalk cream to the rest of the films and with that giving a name to the trilogy that is easy and fun to remember .
