Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)

It's 'vege-mania' in Wallace and Gromit's neighborhood, and our two enterprising chums are cashing in with their humane pest-control outfit, "Anti-Pesto." With only days to go before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, business is booming, but Wallace & Gromit are finding out that running a "humane" pest control outfit has its drawbacks as their West Wallaby Street home fills to the brim with captive rabbits. Suddenly, a huge, mysterious, veg-ravaging "beast" begins attacking the town's sacred vegetable plots at night, and the competition hostess, Lady Tottington, commissions Anti-Pesto to catch it and save the day. Lying in wait, however, is Lady Tottington's snobby suitor, Victor Quartermaine, who'd rather shoot the beast and secure the position of local hero-not to mention Lady Tottingon's hand in marriage. With the fate of the competition in the balance, Lady Tottington is eventually forced to allow Victor to hunt down the vegetable chomping marauder. Little does she know that Victor's real intent could have dire consequences for her ...and our two heroes.

:/ First I'd heard of it. Ai, I feel so out of the loop sometimes. It opens the week after 'Serenity', though! :)

Saw a promo display for it, including some of the miniatures they used, at ComicCon. I can't wait!

aww!

It's our annual vacation, and the only thing still on my con/conference list as a must-do.

Though, next year - Worldcon in my hometown, woot! Never been to one -

How come you can't go?

Much the same reason I haven't been able to go to D*con for ages. That and the sucky way vacation was managed this year. [waves farewell to bank account as house tax payment drops]

Ergh. Gotcha.

I'd been hoping we could get out to SD for a long weekend - I need zoo and Sea World pretty bad - but don't think we're going to be able to find the $$. Which means, vacation in, well, well, there's next year's ComicCon... :P

I can't wait for it to open. I've been giggling since I saw the first previews! I own the tapes of all thier previous films, several t-shirts and other Wallace & Grommit stuff... plus, of course, the large Shaun the Sheep Purse. =)

You. Sheep purse. Of course.

I just want a Shaun doll, but the last time I looked at a price, I went 'Gack!'

It's opened down here in Oz, we got the world premiere. Not sure whether I'm going to have time to see it, but I bought a little plush rabbit from it :)

You get Serenity first, too, by about... 39 hours, I think!
