Feel free to move this to Off-Subject Discussion if it warrants further discussion about the series.


What's your favorite Wallace and Gromit film? There has been quite a few of them now, with a new short planned to be released later this year entitled A Matter of Loaf and Death.

My favorite film has to be The Wrong Trousers, mainly because of how awesome of a character Feathers McGraw was. It was also the first Wallace and Gromit short that I watched when there was a marathon of them shown on Easter many years ago.

I like it, because I've seen little snippets here and there, but I haven't watched enough of a single short to form an opinion.

It was so hard to pick. I love all of them, but I haven't seen the latest one. And I've only seen a couple of the shorts on the internet.

A close shave came out on top.

EDIT: What about spinoffs? I love the Shaun the Sheep series they have on at the moment.

Hmmmm. Tough one. I think I've watched them all, but I forget what happened in the original three for the most part because I was like five when I watched them. So I can't really say.

Wrong Trousers was brilliant.

Wererabbit I didn't care for.

It was close between the first three, they're all good.
But Wrong Trousers will always be the best.
"Gromiiiit!"

Close Shave. Don't get me wrong, I love Wrong Trousers. But Close Shave has that wickedly awesome feeling. I mean evil dog cyborg! Trying to gnash the sheep, people and dog into dog food! That's messed up, man!

Either A Close Shave or Curse of the Were-Rabbit, I haven't seen either recently enough to be able to tell which is better. They're all great, though. Out of the original three, the Wrong Trousers comes very close to being my favourite.

Protip: A Close Shave is the second newest one to date.

Myself, I'm a fan of The Wrong Trousers. Can't go wrong with penguins and techno pants.

Change my mind. The Wrong Trousers was actually pretty good.

Wow, I'm surprised anybody else even knows about the old Wallace and Gromit shorts XD

I like all of the older shorts, but I guess it would have to be wrong trousers. I mean, what's not to like about a penguin that looks like a chicken robbing a bank?

I'm going to say Curse of the Wererabbit, the big screen doesn't always ruin things when adapted.
