Just saw Wallace & Gromit...
Thank God for Nick Park and the art of hand animation! I am praying he has another W&G film in the works...

3. I love the humanity of their work
Its like getting a 7 course meal in liberal/progressive ideology all while laughing your butt off.

8. In time their probably will be another film
The only problem is that the studio building where "Wallace and Gromit" was made burned down in a fire. And this was just after the movie had taken the No 1 spot for box office receipts. Very sad.

Hollywood loves a money maker so it's likely some major studio will back another film for W&G.

The film was wonderful stuff! It amazed me how they could get Gromit to display any range of emotion with just the eyes and that brow!

9. Meh, Wallace and Grommit have had brushes with disaster before...
... and yet they persevere:

In 1997 they were accidentally left in the trunk of a NY taxi, but they were returned unscathed.
