But seriously, what's so hard to get?

It's my idea! I thought of it first! Okay, maybe not, but I plan on doing this, too.

"Learing English: The Hot Fuzz Way"

Repeat after me: "Off the fucking chain!"
"AWF TEH FAH-KIN-GU CHAI-NU."

:lol:

It's humor derived from contrast. Whities from England aren't supposed to say "Off the chain!!!" It's the fact that the humor is presented so nonchalantly without always having to use gesticulation to portray it. Don't get me wrong, Hot Fuzz isn't really high-brow, but when you compare a lot of British comedy to American comedy, you'll get it.

Hot Fuzz is just a semi-tongue-in-cheek parody of old cop flicks, just as Shaun of the Dead was an openly satirical film based on movies pertaining to the "Zed" word. It's the moments where they say, "Kill the Queen!" "What?" "The jukebox! Turn off the jukebox!" that make me want to lawl.

"Getting a joke" isn't the same thing as "understanding a joke." *sigh*

Ever meet someone who laughs at T.V. or movies at the funny parts because they catch on that it's time to laugh without knowing why? *sigh* I have.

@sheer: My dictionary says "17. Grasp with the mind or develop an understanding of. "did you get it?"; "She didn't get the joke"; "I just don't get him""

That's what I meant.

Don't get me wrong. I don't like to argue and I don't want any enemies. For me, discussion over.

They played it on the plane from Japan. I watched it in Japanese dub. lol This guy I was on the plane with and I were watching it together. He was cool. The movie was better than Shrek the IIIrd or Spiderman 3.
