If you've never watched Spaced, you have no idea how soothing it is to hear Julia Deakin's voice saying "Broian?" in your head no matter what role you see her perform. I love that she is the audience for Simon Pegg's trademark speech as Gary King.

Marmalade Sandwich (#155)
This is one in a series of these that you'll be flooded with from now until (and probably after) the release of the The World's End on Blu-ray. I like pointing at this bit when making "miniature Odyssey" comparisons to the World's End narrative.
THE WORLD'S END Blu-ray Review
Three years ago, I wrote a comprehensive review of the Blu-ray for Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim vs the World Blu-ray roughly 18 hours after it arrived on my doorstep. The Blu-ray of his most recent movie arrived a couple of days ago, and I've finished plowing through every last featurette and commentary. The World's End hits Blu-ray in the US two weeks from today.
As always, screengrabs are taken direct from the disc, then resized to 1000pixel width and compressed from PNG to JPG.

My exhaustively comprehensive review of the Blu-ray is almost finished. Three years ago, I did the same for his ultra-stacked Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.
