SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Wallace and Gromit are Oscar winning stars that are in 3 famous short films.And in 2002 they are come to our TV screens with Wallace and Gromit's cracking contraptions.Nick park and the crew have made this the same style as the shorts and the feature film.I love these, they made me grin then laugh then scream with joy! I like snowmanatron best.It is funny and a good scene to watch.So now with more success Wallace and Gromit are coming to the CBBC channel with a 40-part series with Shaun the sheep.As we know a lot of people love Shaun but my best is the evil robot/cooker from Wallace and Gromit's first film, a grand day out.If you don't like cracking contraptions you are not a real Fan.So stay tuned to CBBC for more Adventures.

These here are a collection of 2 minute shorts of Wallace and Gromit.They were made 3 years before the movie and 6 years after the Close Shave.What's cool about them is each one features a different new gadget.A lot of the gadgets are cool looking too.Still features Peter Sallis as Wallace. And Gromit is still a smart dog.Sure each one is short, but if you see them all at once, that's like seeing a 20 minute short film.There's at least one laugh to each of the shorts. Some of them might features something familiar from the 3 old shorts too.This collection of shorts is a must see for all the die hard Wallace and Gromit fans out there.These use to be shorts only shown in England, but now it's easier to see now that it's released on the new Wallace and Gromit DVD.I give this collection an 8 out of 10.

Possible minor spoilers'Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions' is a collection of ten short animated movies about inventions of Wallace. Some of them work almost the entire time, some of them do things they should not do, some of them explode, some of them have side effects, some of them attack Wallace or Gromit and two of them perfectly work, although that was not what Gromit was hoping for.With inventions like the snowmanotron, the 525 crackervac, the bully proof vest and the tellyscope, my personal favorite together with the snoozatron, you know there are going to be some very hard laughs. The enthusiastic Wallace and the worried dog Gromit are very funny characters and in animated shorts like this they are perfect. Very well done.

In a series of very short films, Wallace the inventor demonstrates his newest inventions to his faithful dog Gromit. Some are useful but more often than not they cause more trouble than they're worth. Trouble that usually has to be remedied by Gromit.Who doesn't like W&G? For at least three Christmas times on the BBC we had a new 30 minute film from them that was always wonderful but now I understand they are working on a full length film they haven't been making them for the BBC anymore. Happily Christmas 2002 was different as they made a series of very short (3 minutes generally) films to be shown randomly throughout the BBC1 schedule. I wasn't able to see all of them but saw a few.Generally they are clever, witty and to the point - a western-style stand-off between a cracker hoover and Gromit was a nice touch, and there are other examples in each short or their unique touches. It's always pleasing to hear Sallis as Gromit - I enjoy Last of the Summer Wine and Wallace just reminds me so much of Sallis' character in that.I don't know where you are able to see these shorts. I suspect they will be made into a 30 minute video for sale or will turn up as extras on the DVD of the feature length movie at a later stage. By themselves they are just about worth trying to find - but at 3 minutes they'll be tricky. However spread over the Christmas schedule these were quite refreshing little treats.
