Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

Saw this this evening, and must say, it was excellent.

I won't give out any spoilers (unless you ask for them), but I will say that the script was extremely witty, with things for both kids and adults.
Some of the jokes were ancient, but still hilarious If I tell you that they were from the Airplane school of bad jokes, I think you'll get the picture. (Don't get me wrong. I love Airplane!)

Cheers,
Malcolm

yeah it was good. No sheep like in "The close shave" user added image

. Still good though. Even though Aardman Studios burned down a couple of days later.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

It wasn't the studio that was destroyed, it was their storage facility, but it was a terrible loss. Luckily the original Wallace & Gromit figures were elsewhere in Bristol at the time.

Just watched it tonight and yep kennez, I agree with you on the jokes user added image

It's good fun, not quite like grand day out or the others but it was entertaining and a good laugh. Can't wait to watch it again to catch the bits that you often miss.
