  • Wallace & Grommit appreciation thread

    I watched the Curse of the Were Rabbit last night - the first W&G film I've watched for a while, and I'd forgotten how brilliant it all was. Apart from good storyline and a strong script, the facial expressions are awesome - they give Grommit an entire personality without ever saying anything.

    The DVD came with the usual extra stuff about how they made it etc. They spent a whole *year* animating just a few seconds of the were-rabbit morphing. Unbelievable!

    I gather there has been some international success. Are these characters known and loved in your country?

              I've loved W&G for years.
              Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

                          Gromit gets his revenge in some of the 'Cracking Contraptions' shorts that came on the 'extra' DVD. Therapeutic stuff for Gromit fans.

                              I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.
