| Tonight my wife Jay & I just got back from seeing the new ‘Wallace & Gromit’ film, and as I sit here typing, a big part of me feels like hopping back in the car and rushing back to watch it again. I was reminded why I love movies in the first place, and also why I love stop-motion animation. I think anyone who loves movies would feel the same way after seeing this one. For one thing, it’s made for people who love movies, particularly those partial to monster movies and classic sci-fi/horror films. There are homages to Metropolis, King Kong, The Wolfman, American Werewolf in London, the Hammer horror genre, Beauty & the Beast, and touches of Rube Goldberg, Chaplin, and a unique brand of British humor that is purely Aardman, made famous by the genius of Wallace & Gromit’s creator Nick Park himself. The familiar elements are all there: the elderly fire-and-brimstone vicar, the forbidden romance, the villainous ‘Gaston’-type, carrying the damsel to the rooftop, the rooftop chase and the death/resurrection ending. It was all stuff we’ve seen before, but we were glad to see it. There was nothing forced or fake about it…it was pure cinema. —Continued on the blog
