WALLACE & GROMIT: VENGEANCE MOST FOWL | Film Threat Reviews

[@sonicmaestro]

Don't forget all the storytelling done with Gromit (who can't speak) and the titles to all the books he reads. That was such a cool device they used for the character.

[@andymayo720]

This was the main thing I was looking forward to this Christmas. Watched it twice, absolutely brilliant.

[@Jordyio]

Wallace & Gromit films are always a blast to watch.

[@timcowell2626]

I come from a town just north of where of where Nick Park comes from. The humour in W&G is what I come across every day. Just like Paddington, the W&G films are a joy.

[@WarDog793]

The scene in "The Wrong Trousers" when Gromit and the penguin are riding that model trains makes me laugh SO HARD my stomach hurts.

[@sigmacademy]

Then you will love this one. They show 2 canal boats in a furious race with each other, then poke fun at how slow such boats are by having an elderly person walk past them with a dog on the side walk. XD

[@WarDog793]

@@sigmacademy Umm, what title should I search for to get this?

[@sigmacademy]

The gnome charging cycle was glorious. XD

[@sigmacademy]

Now, Asterix and Obelix The Big Fight is next on my list, together with I am what I am, both cgi animated projects.

[@bulldogsbob]

Wallace and Gromit in addiction to be hilarious are works of art in an age of all CGI animation. Given Nick Park’s age and how long it takes to make a Wallace and Gromit film, this could be a de facto series finale for the lovable duo and what a finale it would be.

[@MarkHWillson]

One can hope the IP stays in the hands of someone who cares about it, and eventually if they decide to resurrect it, it would be for a good reason. 🤞

[@terrystewart1973]

Wow! A franchise that hasn't been ruined - don't tell Disney!

[@ashesfrombones]

we do not mention that name!

[@Belloqs]

It is top-tier Aardman. Hilarious and beautifully made.

[@Doooooooooooood]

A lot of hidden references in the movie too that might only make sense to Brits. Those little details make the movie very special.

[@MasticinaAkicta]

It is out? HOORAY! You can't go wrong with Wallace and Gromit!

[@DutchMcHolland]

Just seeing the penguin with the glove is enough to make me laugh. 😃 That gnome tho, that's pure nightmare fuel. 😧 I'm going to rewatch every Aardman movie I can find. Some funny, innocent comedy is just what I need.

[@sigmacademy]

The posters in the background (especially the "no monkeying around" workplace safety poster) was hilarious.

[@DutchMcHolland]

@@sigmacademy Yeah, background jokes are great. Funny, and also shows that the creators put some thought into their work. Haven't seen this movie yet, but I'll make sure to scour the entire screen. 😀

[@shawnb1457]

Wallace and Gromit are like Inspector Gadget and Brain, the Dog is the one protecting the other

[@minicle426]

Feathers: I'll get you next time, Wallace, next time... Seal: * BARK! *

[@AlexFehrTheLoneWolf]

Own all these movies including the first 2 on VHS that I watched growing up all the time, always inspired me to want to make stop motion myself! Wallace & Gromit had a wonderful impact on my life, can't wait to see this!

[@darthlaurel]

An evil penguin masquerading as a rooster - it's a great gig if you can get it!

[@sigmacademy]

Watch the last parts of this movie, where the police woman has a bunch of photos pinned to a board - it shows all its different disguises, including a lampshade. :P

[@Novabug]

Train sequence? Do you guys mean the canal boat sequence from Vengeance most Fowl or the model train sequence from The Wrong Trousers? Both are great however

[@sigmacademy]

You forgot the sub sequence. :P

[@ashesfrombones]

it was so damn good! as call back, as parody, as a stand alone, it works! but if you combined the 3, its so damn good!

[@candlefire8411]

Thought this was excellent. Film for all the family at last.

[@writerpatrick]

We use to get 10 films a year this good. Now we're lucky to get one.

[@laurenceblount2878]

Thank you. Will watch it tomorrow. We'll... later today.

[@E3Ops]

I'm excited to see this. My daughter and I loved watching show.

[@michaelmikeykellymikeydama5405]

This aired immediately after Doctor Who and STILL had more than twice the number of views.

[@williamking7631]

I also love Shawn The Sheep, which maybe done by the same people.

[@terrystewart1973]

Shawn the Sheep first appeared in the Wallace and Gromit film, 'A Close Shave'. The one with the Terminator dog Preston.

[@Geese-farting-in-the-wind]

The Farmer from Shaun the Sheep makes a cameo in this film.

[@jasongoldsmith2222]

I didn't hear anything about this. Lovely surprise but I wish it was in theaters

[@matttheking1655]

Feathers was the MVP👍😊

[@davidsanders5652]

Cheers. I actually made a point of not watching it at Christmas as Peter Sallis, being dead, could not voice Wallace. I may now reconsider.

[@dickybird6916]

@@davidsanders5652 whitehead absolutely nails Sallis voice in vengeance most fowl. He also voiced wallace in the telltale point and click adventure game episodes but at the time they were made hadn't fully dialled in the impression.

[@joshuacalkins]

I think the new fella has been around quite a while. The Curse of the Wererabbit was an excellent film, and I assume he was the voice.

[@davidsanders5652]

@@joshuacalkins Nope, that was Sallis. He died in 2017 and pretty much worked to the end. Easier to do once you've pretty much retired to just voice acting. You can (and he did) do it at home.

[@davidsanders5652]

@@dickybird6916 Cheers. I'd done when Sallis died...maybe I should go back and view this.

[@joshuacalkins]

@@davidsanders5652 Wow! Good for him. I then suspect that he wasn’t doing ALL of the W+G projects, as someone mentioned he didn’t do the video game for some reason.

[@kaosthecosmicreviewer1055]

Saw this as soon as it was released on Netflix, unfortunately I didn't like it as much as curse of the were-rabbit.

[@sterling7]

Watched it tonight; laughed a lot, and enjoyed it tremendously. If I was to make one criticism, it would be this: did Wallace _really_ make it through "The Wrong Trousers" without learning to appreciate Gromit more than this? It seems like the central conflict dynamic borrows more than a little from that earlier movie.

[@bulldogsbob]

I think Wallace is very forgettful.

[@flytetime7637]

For me it was a Christmas Day chuckle-fest. Although not as good as Were-Rabbit.

[@DuckSith]

They're great aren't they. God bless Ardman.

[@gr3154]

Peter kay stole the show for me😂

[@RobAryeeArc]

For the glory of the almighty algorithm.

[@rogerborg]

It's superbly made, and reflects the reality of the colonisation of Yorkshire. However, it peddles a fantasy of integration that doesn't match the parallel (or orthogonal) communities there. You will find Constable Mukherjee, but not talking like a native, or policing in native interests. And of _course_ it had to have Strong Blackwhamen Judge, voiced by the angriest and most bitter of professional victimhood race-grifters, Adjoa Andoh. "Don't think about it, it's for kids", goes the refrain, because propaganda works best on the young.

[@anthonyparkinson4517]

Careful, your bigotry is showing.

[@andylikesstuffchannel]

Where you from mate?

[@AncientRylanor69]

😁😄🦧

[@denroy3]

Better than 'Curse of the Were Rabbit'?

[@MrWillyMrBrightside]

Smaller budget it being Netflix rather than DreamWorks, though I really enjoyed it.

[@ShallowDepression]

Chicken Run 2 was a vegan propaganda movie 😔

[@tdog5035]

Its about chickens. Its hardly going to be pro meat is it?

[@AbrasiousProductions]

@@tdog5035 exactly, what the hell is this guy thinking?! wouldn't that apply to the first film as well given this guys thoughts?

[@rogerborg]

An effective one: my daughter cites it as her reason for being a vegetardarian.

[@bulldogsbob]

What do you expect. It’s a film where the main characters are chickens,

[@ShallowDepression]

@@rogerborg Sorry to hear that :(

[@madmeh2929]

The effects and scenes are top notch, but the woke influences are difficult to ignore. Thought the theme was overall too dark compared to the upbeat nature of previous films.

[@AbrasiousProductions]

what's woke about it? not trying to be pedantic I'm just curious.

[@joshuacalkins]

Sounds very ominous…. I have a wokeness intolerance.

[@someblokes2022]

They say it's woke because there are people who are not white in the film it's just ridiculous there's woke media out there but a movie having characters who are of a different race than white is not woke people saying it's woke is their way of being racist

[@graemetonks7825]

It's a must see. The funniest thing on Telly this Xmas.😂

[@tdog5035]

Don't be daft.

[@kpsk8031]

I disagree, this is one of the weaker Wallace and Gromit films. They extended a 40 minutes story to 75 minutes.

[@Midwinter2]

This film was so disappointing. They took a 30-minute film and stretched it out to 80 minutes. Horribly unfunny, boring, and stale - just not up to the standard of the previous W&G films. This in no way diminishes the outstanding work of the artists, animators and technicians. This is mainly a problem with the writing. Please return to the 30-minute format!

[@michaelmikeykellymikeydama5405]

😂😂😂

[@MrWillyMrBrightside]

Put simply, there isn't the money for that anymore. It has to be a certain length for Netflix to fund it

[@Midwinter2]

@@MrWillyMrBrightside Fair enough. Actually, I would have no problem with a full-length W&G film if it was well-written. "Curse of the Were-rabbit" was brilliant, in my view. But "vengeance Most Fowl" fell flat for me.

[@doomraven0]

This is going to be the most exciting film of the year for me, hands down. The Wallace and Gromit shorts and Wererabbit movie are all perfection, so i can't wait for a new one.
