Fuzzy This Morning

We saw Hot Fuzz last night at the local theater. We'd seen it before, of course - we have it on DVD and re-watch every few years, because it is a well-done action film/buddy cop satire. It's also really tightly written, which I appreciate. But we had never seen it on the big screen.
Anyway. This was billed as a "party movie night" so they allowed you to interact with the movie, presumably much-lower Rocky Horror style. It didn't really work. I think we were the only ones who yelled out "The Greater Good!" each time it was chanted. But it was fun, and of course the explosions and gunfire were much more over the top on a professional sound system. They also gave us aviator glasses, a fake moustache to look like the Andys, and a police badge. No one put them on during the show but the wife and I will take a picture later today.
I did catch a Doris sex joke that I hadn't noticed before - at the village fair she is standing with two men, looking at a roast pig, and says "That'll be me in a few hours." Because it's spit-roasted. I laughed.
Tired because we got home later than I usually do on a work night, but I had planned to work from home today to at least give me a bit more time in the morning.
