This week we continue our Divergent Month with a look at a themed trilogy where the only thing that connects its parts is a tasty treat: Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy! We go through Shaun of the Dead (2004), Hot Fuzz (2007), and The World's End (2013) while discussing what makes these films unique, and what holds them all together as a series. Along the way we discuss which film suffered from the law of diminishing returns, the subtextual issues of masculinity and vulnerability that permeate and influence the entire trilogy, and how thrilled we were that Nick Frost finally got to flex his dramatic muscles.
