Please don't let it end
22 August 2013
Everyone remembers the best night of their life. The one thing we all have in common with our best nights is that you never wanted it to end. You and your friends all have those stories, the ones we tell about that perfect night. Well I am going to assure you, that you and your friends don't have a story like this group of guys. Well unless your story can top saving the world, all while making a pub run… didn't think so.

Gary (Simon Pegg) was the cool guy in High School you wanted to be like. Good looking, fun, and didn't care about what anyone thought of him. Gary had a group of friends who followed him; there was Oliver (Martin Freeman), Steven (Paddy Considine), Peter (Eddie Marsan) and Andy (Nick Frost). In 1990 they tried to do the golden mile, a trip to twelve pubs ending at The World's End. They did not make it, but it was still one of those nights you won't forget. Flash forward twenty years later and Gary wants to finish what they couldn't finish twenty years earlier. Things have changed though, only Gary has remained the same, somehow he convinces the group to get to give it another try, and they head back home to finish the golden mile. Something about the town is different though, and not the normal time passage different, it is more like the town has been taken over by robots different. That doesn't stop Gary from wanting to complete what he came to do. All he and his friends have to do is fight the evil robots and make it to The World's End.

What is the perfect trilogy? That can be an easy question to answer, if you think of a trilogy in the normal sense. Yeah you have trilogies like "Star Wars" "The Godfather", and "The Matrix" series, but what about the 'Cornetto' Trilogy? Some of you may be asking what the 'Cornetto' trilogy is, well let me tell you. It is "Shaun of the Dead, "Hot Fuzz", and the grand finale "The World's End". The series gets its name from Cornetto Ice Cream, which makes an appearance in all three films. The other thing all three films have in common is that they were all written by Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg and directed by Edgar Wright. You hope this is not the end of this perfect partnership, a partnership that goes back to 1999 on a great TV series called "Spaced". It is really hard to not enjoy a movie like "The World's End" a movie that provides you with everything you need, it is like the perfect balanced meal. It is easy to say "Edgar Wright has done it again", but he really has. I implore you to go to your local cinema and watch one of the best movies of the summer and would make any day a perfect day. In fact the only thing that could make it any better, would be to enjoy a Cornetto, while you watch the perfect way to end the Cornetto Trilogy.
