This is such good news for the creators since their studio and all of it's historic contents burned down last year.

Kudos to the claymen, clay on, clay more!

Just too bad I saw the film on the plane, not the best of theatres. Will rent it when it gets out on DVD (or HD-DVD, or Blueray)

I liked "A close Shave" best followed by the one on the moon, of which I have forgotten the title. It was W & C that made me try out Wensleydale and red Leicester cheese while in the UK recently, but I am not particular to it. My favourite remains blue stilton (on baguette or ciabata with a nice full-bodied red wine).

I'm saying a prayer that he lives another 10 or 15 years but at 85 years old you have to be realistic.

One thing is certain when Peter is gone Wallace and Gromit are gone, there cant be a W&G without Peter Sallis

It did win the Oscar and rightly so. A great animated film to add to the list of truly inspired and innovative efforts like "Spirited Away." W&G is way up on the list to add to my permanent DVD collection alongside SA (well, and, of course "Monsters, Inc.")

I thought I was going to hate this when my boyfriend (who is a big animation guru) drug me out to check it out -- but I loved it so much. Although, I'm typically a big fan of the newer looking cartoons like the The Wild and the big Pixar films- this was a great litttle change of pace. Golf Claps for W&G

Hello again. I'm partial to this most delicious fresh Monterey jack that you can only find at this little mom'n pop grocer in Santa Cruz. It just melts in your mouth! Particularly over eggs with some spicy salsa. Delightful!

Ohhhh! Trade Joe's has a great Monterey Jack and every reasonable, although I have been know to be extravagant and buy some at Bristol Farms. Target has some great bottled salsa right now and they don't always seem to have it. It's thick enough to coat the eggs and has some multiple beans added in. I do add a little more cayenne and some hot sauce. Good for the circulation.

The First Trader Joes just opened in Albuquerque last week. Now I can shop there as I did in California.
