Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

…is a classic. Superb gags, inside jokes, references to other movies, very clever puns, Simpsons-like text that only appears on-screen for a split second, cute bunnies, perfect comic timing (and expression, especially on Gromit’s face) make this a movie I’d watch again and again.

Lord Victor Quartermaine: No, you idiot. My hair is in there.
Wallace: Oh, no, only rabbits in there. I think you’ll find the hare is a much larger creature.

    As for all of you who wanna help out, where the heck would we do it? I’ll do the Transformers one myself. Besides, I’ve been animating Transformers since 1998. 😛

    I have always, always wanted to do stop-motion. I used to draw animated strips of people running, stickmen fighting and transforming into something else on the edges of textbooks. Part of this desire to animate was satiated in 1999 to 2000, where I ma…
