What I always find fascinating about Paul, is just how much it feels like an addition to the Cornetto Trilogy (by way of a Seth Rogan film) in terms of the screenwriting. It really highlights Simon Pegg's contribution to the style and comedy of those films.

I love this film, the scifi references run rampant throughout and Pegg and Frost are hilarious

My thoughts exactly its so good but no one reacts to it

Can't say I expected this movie to pop up but man am I glad it did. Haven't seen it in years but it always holds a place in my heart. So many of my favorite comedic actors throughout the whole movie and just a fun time all around.

20:14 Same thing Han Solo said in Episode 4 after shooting the intercom when they were on the Death Star rescuing the princess. So many solid references and performances in this movie.

Hi James, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’ve been watching you reactions for about a year and a half, your unique take on my favourite films have given me much more of an appreciation for them than I originally had. Your criticism has opened my eyes to the artistic beauty within films I “thought” I knew. From one artist to another, thank you for the education in cinema that I wasn’t looking for, but am glad I received. I’m anticipating many more, many thanks, Kurt 💙

Fun fact: the fun scene where they're play-fighting with one of them dressed as a Star Trek "Gorn" was filmed at Vasquez Rocks - which is where the Star Trek episode featuring the Gorn ("Arena") was filmed.

Jason Bateman's deadpan delivery is too good, his expressions speak so much more than words speaking of which he was fantastic in Bad Words.

An absolute classic comedy this film - love it! big love & respect to you James as always

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are huge fans of Invincible. During one of the shooting days, Robert Kirkman (creator of Invincible) and Ryan Ottley (main artist behind Invincible) were on the set of Paul. One of the masked individuals with Sigourney Weaver at the end of the movie was Ryan and they got permission from Robert to use the multiple references of Invincible in the movie. The father of the girl was Norm from Fargo as well. I literally just watched your Fargo reaction from years ago this morning, so that's why I noticed it haha

bro you have been on a fucking ROLL with the Patreon picks, all of these are gold. I’ll get tired of your enthusiasm and I’m still looking forward to the grind house you said you were going to make ;)

I’m happy to see you reacting to this film. Hopefully this will get some other reactors to take a look as well🤞

10:21, Its so weird seeing an Invincible reference from 2011 before it even became popular.

20:09 This is a reference to A New Hope. Whilst disguised as Stormtroopers, Han Solo shoots the communication device to 'hang up' Then says "Boring conversation anyway."

I'm just so happy. I don't know what else to say. THANK you for this one, James.

Anchorman, What dreams may come and now Paul. Greatest week of reactions ever.

God this movie is underrated. I watched this movie around Christmas time with my dad and brothers back in like freshman year, so this is a Christmas movie for me. God good times.

Please confirm what this is James??,

I got this movie from the $5 bin a few years back and absolutely love it! I have always loved aliens and comedy, this movie is absolutely nerd gold!

Forgot to mention, both Simon Pegg and Nick Frost appeared separately on the BBC comedy series Black Books, starring stand up comic Dylan Moran aka "David" from Shaun of the Dead, Bill Bailey another noted stand up from across the pond and Tamsin Grieg, who is less well known but had a cameo in Shaun, playing a member of Yvonne's mirror group that they run into while trying to make it to the Winchester. It's a funny short series worth a watch.

Paul is so underrated💙😂💙, people usually watch there are other films and forget about this one.

Such a underrated movie

I love this movie. Watched it I don’t know how many times. Might be my favorite Pegg/Frost film. I love the alien, road trip vibe.

Finally someone reacting to this movie 👍

Awesome, haven't seen this hilarious movie on any other channel. Another brilliant selection...kick-ass job. 👍

No freaking way. I'm so happy you reacted to this man.

Love the casting

grew up watching this movie

I watch this movie about once a week. Just spark one up and enjoy the ride! The Adam Shadowchild jokes never get old.

5:49 Thing is, the story is seen from the perspective of two British nerds, so the strange and unusual world they're caught up in is America. That's why the actual 'alien' in the movie talks 100% like an American dude.

James the spaceballs joke was genius

I'm a bit surprised that you didn't mention the famous movie quotes in this one. "I'm on a mission from God." - The Blues Brothers "Boring conversation anyway." (after shooting the radio) - Star Wars: A New Hope And, of course, even though it wasn't seen in this edit: "Get away from her you bitch!" when punching Sigourney Weaver 🤣

I love this movie so much I was actually a little worried how you’d react to it because if you didn’t like it it would hurt my feelings 😂😭

I was just looking for this the other day

Moorcroft, Wyoming isn't just a single farmhouse on an empty plain, and there's no ravine of that size anywhere near it. It is a small town of about 1100 people, but it's also not right next to Devil's Tower. That'd be Hulett. But that's the movies for you.

aaaaah ive watched this a fair few times but i just got it, when the agent shoots the car radio "boring conversation anyway" thats han solos line from star wars, how did i not see that before

Movie is a gem. Saw this in theaters. Another one I pat myself on the back for picking back then.

I really enjoy the nods to other sci-fi movies. Probably my favorite is the band in the country bar playing the song from the cantina scene in Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope. On the DVD commentary they said that the band didn't have to learn the song. They already knew it, because they played it at a wedding at the request of the newlyweds.

@@cirrustate8674 Yeah that's a good one. Then the firework they used to signal Paul's ship was called 5-tone and they played 5 musical notes at the fireworks store. That was reference to Close Encounters of the Third Kind. And when the old lady says to Sigourney Weaver's character to "Get away from her you bitch!" That was a line that Weaver said in the movie Aliens. This movie is just full of those references. I called it the test to see how much a sci-fi nerd a person is. How many references do they understand from the movie?

A good just for fun movie with great sci fi references throughout, reminds me a bit of Galaxy Quest, but instead of focusing on a single franchise, it has fun with the whole genre.

I live near where they filmed most of this movie (northern New Mexico). I was just driving down one of the roads from the final car chase.

Thanks for this, great movie!

Great reaction to a great and funny movie!!! Thank you for this 👍👍👍

Did you notice the fact that the music the band was playing in the bar when the fight broke out was the "Cantina Band" theme from Star Wars? :) Also, when Jason Bateman shoots his radio and says "boring conversation anyway", that's exactly what Han Solo did on the Death Star in Star Wars. And do I even have to mention "Get away from her, you BITCH!" :)

Highly recommend anyone watch Harley Davidson and the Marlboro man. It’s a classic early 90’s western biker action movie, it honestly feels a lot like an old western set in a more modern age.

Pretty sure Bill hader and Jason Bateman used these roles as a reference that got BARRY and Ozarks backing (not that they'd need it, but to show to potential shareholders or whoever in the pipeline as an example of more serious role capability coming off of Arrested Development, and hader from SNL and other comedy films), it's cool to see the like career trajectory timeline of actors to see how they evolved (BARRY and Ozark are 2 phenomenal series btw)

Ohh yesss. This movie is soo good. Simon and Nick is such a goated duo.

galaxy quest is some what like this.lol cheers love the star wars canteena music in the bar fight..

When it comes to alien comedies, the first thing that comes to mind is My Stepmother is an Alien from '88, with Basinger and Akroyd.

8:25 The "farmers" line feels like a reference to _Hot Fuzz_ ("Everyone and their mum is packing around here.") And I could never fully buy into the Sherlock Holmes story _The Hound of the Baskervilles_ because (spoilers) the victim was an American rancher who somehow didn't think to carry a gun.

You seem to have missed so many pop culture movie references in this film, which just shows you have a lot of movies still to see.

Bill Hader... started as a PA, absolutely love that dude for his weirdness and comedy funny. And his Bravo to be an industry leader!

This movie is one of my families favorites. Seen it probly 20+ times. Just feel good and great all around.

Love this movie

It's still a fun sci-fi comedy film.

Attack The Block is a funny alien film that also has Nick Frost in it.

The movie that is similar to this are Galaxy Quest and an English movie called Attack the Block its Sci fi comedy horror it's made on a small budget but it's good. It's filmed on a council estate which is a hood in the UK with gangs drugs etc.

"THE WATCH" is another good Alien comedy movie. Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill
