He's back to fat nowaydays.

While Rogen isn't The Green Hornet-slim anymore, he's not back to Knocked Up-fat either. He's in the middle.

And I didn't know someone's weight attributed to the fact if they're funny or not.

Nothing will ever touch the near perfection that is 'Hot Fuzz'. Man that is one of those rare films where everything is right. This new film is almost sure to be a letdown, I mean I hope it's even better and I'll definitely see it, but it's not likely.

I felt the same way about Shaun of the Dead, but I was pleasantly surprised by Hot Fuzz.

Heck, I felt the same way about Paul but I really enjoyed it. Not as good as Shaun or Fuzz, but it's a respectable (if distant) third. At least until we get the boys in Nuke Green post-apoc action!

Shaun of the Dead is a classic but Hot Fuzz was a big letdown for me, so my expectations aren't as high as others.

Looking forward to seeing this for sure!! These three are great together and really haven't done anything I've disliked.

I liked Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz a lot, especially Shaun of the Dead. I don't really understand why Paul gets hate though. I liked it well enough, it may have been slightly less funny compared to Shaun and Hot Fuzz but I still thought it was pretty good (especially with all the geek references).

But didn't you hear? He's fat, godamnit! And that means he's awful - as a human being and an actor! Fucking fattie...

The first time I saw Hot Fuzz, I didn't care for it much. I grew to love it after a couple of viewings.
Shaun was a great zombie movie made by people who are obviously huge fans of the genre.

Although, both movies might overdo the self referential wink-wink humor just a bit.
