Are you a fan of Wallace & Gromit? Do you prefer the shorts to the full length features?
I was really excited to see "The Curse of The Were-Rabbit" and thought that it was worth the wait. I loved all of the rabbits that were in the film and when they were going 'into the light', the expressions on their faces were incredible.

My son who turns 12 tomorrow loves Wallace and Gromit. We saw the flick at the theatre last year and with our cable company (Time Warner digital) we recently saw about three shorts - the favorite for my son was the one about the cheese.
Just the other day I was at Toys R Us and asked the girl if they had any W&G movies and I got the last one, this has several shorts my son never saw before and quite enjoyable.

These guys have got some real talent haven't they? I have seen the short ones but not seen the film yet! I saw a documentary on them over Christmas it was quite fascinating! Not sure how it will work now they have split from Dreamworks!

I love Wallace & Gromit, and so do my kids. My favorite is still the short movie "The Wrong Trousers" as it has my favorite W&G character, Feathers McGraw, the bank robbing penguin. The chase sequence qt the end on the model railroad is nothing short of brilliant.

We have the DVD compilation of the shorts and it gets played at least once a week. Feathers is a slick character but I love Shaun the sheep. The facial expressions have me rolling on the floor every single time. W&G is well made and entertaining but you'd be surprised at people who have never watched it because they think it's for kids. Heh, more Wallace, Gromit and cheese for the rest of us!

I've always liked Wallace and Gromit ~ I've been watching their little "skits" and then video's and then movies for years and years.
I think I enjoy them more than my kids! lol
I just love the dog and all his expressions - haha
All their shows/videos have been great!

I have seen just one movie and it was so cute. It has been about a year ago but I remember they was catching rabbits and finally released them at a castle. That is about all I can remember. I do know it was really cute.

i think it might have been the same one as the metal pants.

I love Wallace and Gromit alot. They are creative and the filiming of W & G The curse of were rabbit actually took 6 years to complete. Every one second of this movie needs 24 frames to complete, and it means that for every one second, they need to make 24 shots for this, and you can imagine how much time and effort they need to work on this.

The stop motion aspect of it is what makes it so time consuming to do. The shorts that they made and that were eventually released to DVD were great, entertaining and funny. It was well worth the wait for "Were-Rabbit" but I know it's going tobe at least four years before we get another full length film of W&G.

I love Wallace & Gromit! Not only is the animation amazing, like the great facial features etc, but the story lines are really good too. Gromita' expressions are just great! I thought The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was well worth the wait too, i prefer the full length films becuase you get great story lines.

I know Im repling a year later than when the discussion started but Ive only been here over 3 weeks so hello to you all!
I am massive fan of Wallace and Gromit and try to collect there stuff which is now mainly from eBay. I prefer there stuf from before Curse of the Were-rabbit which is even harder to find nowadays!!
I have got this on PS2 game and is fantasic but you definatley need 2 players to play so you can help each other out!
Im not keen on Chicken Run or Shaun the sheep now hes got his own series.
Nick Park is one genius and cantwait for anymore films if there are any!!

I don't really mind the Shaun shorts, they aren't all that long and some of them can be pretty funny.
