Another great Wallace and Gromit story, must see for fans
So damn enjoyable, and loved the Terminator aspect of the villain.
So damn loveable. A true cornerstone in family cinema.
As charming as ever. You even get a little twist thrown in. Thank goodness for Shawn. Top notch stop motion creativity.
Shaun meets Wallace and Gromit?!?! I’m down for this
The longest film in the series up to this point, not as memorable as the previous entry but it’s still a creative and fun claymation
Point out the person who doesn't like Wallace and gromit we must duel.
An old favourite , can't go wrong with Wallace and gromit
I mean, who doesn't like Wallace and Gromit? Great movie for kids
I must say, this isn't my favourite W&G short but it's still brilliant.

Brian Cohen is an average young Jewish man, but through a series of ridiculous events, he gains a reputation as the Messiah. When he's not dodging his followers or being scolded by his shrill mother, the hapless Brian has to contend with the pompous Pontius Pilate and acronym-obsessed members of a separatist movement. Rife with Monty Python's signature absurdity, the tale finds Brian's life paralleling Biblical lore, albeit with many more laughs.
The Fantastic Mr. Fox, bored with his current life, plans a heist against the three local farmers. The farmers, tired of sharing their chickens with the sly fox, seek revenge against him and his family.
A hapless inventor finally finds success with a flying car, which a dictator from a foreign government sets out to take for himself.
King Arthur, accompanied by his squire, recruits his Knights of the Round Table, including Sir Bedevere the Wise, Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot and Sir Galahad the Pure. On the way, Arthur battles the Black Knight who, despite having had all his limbs chopped off, insists he can still fight. They reach Camelot, but Arthur decides not to enter, as "it is a silly place".

Wallace rents out Gromit's former bedroom to a penguin, who takes up an interest in the techno trousers created by Wallace. However, Gromit later learns that the penguin is a wanted criminal.

Wallace and Gromit have run out of cheese, and this provides an excellent excuse for the duo to take their holiday to the moon, where, as everyone knows, there is ample cheese.

Wallace and Gromit open a bakery, accidentally getting tied up with a murder mystery in the process. But when Wallace falls in love, Gromit is left to solve the case by himself.
Cheese-loving eccentric Wallace and his cunning canine pal Gromit run a business ridding the town of garden pests. Using only humane methods, which turns their home into a halfway house for evicted vermin, the pair stumble upon a mystery involving a voracious vegetarian monster that threatens to ruin the annual veggie-growing contest.
