Quite honestly one of the best animations ever. Want to show this to me kids
The first of many good shorts featuring the duo of Wallace and Gromit.
A series of funny skits with good stop motion animation loosely connected by a story.
Probably what started all the fake moon landing theories. Amazing short
A classic! I think this had a huge role in shaping my obsession with cheese. A good ol’ time every time!
Typical Wallace and Gromit outing. Charming, looks really impressive and is funny. Not much else to it.
I know I loved it when I saw it decades ago!
How Wallace and Gromit built a fully functioning rocket in mere hours is genius.
Surpassed by the others, but a decent introduction to these iconic characters and hilarious movies. Watch before the others or don’t bother
Perhaps the best Wallace and Gromit film. Beautiful, charming with a nice feeling of adventure.
