Do you think this is the best?

The Wrong Trousers is a 1993 animated film directed by Nick Park at Aardman Animations in Bristol, featuring his characters Wallace and Gromit. It was his second half-hour short featuring the eccentric inventor Wallace and his quiet but intelligent dog Gromit, following 1989’s A Grand Day Out and preceding 1995’s A Close Shave.
As in A Grand Day Out, the 30 minute film uses sight gags and exaggerated physical comedy, as well as a few subtle film parodies. Voice acting is the sole duty of Peter Sallis as the voice of Wallace, as both Gromit and Feathers remain silent throughout.
The film premiered in the UK on 26 December 1993 and won the 1993 Academy Award for Animated Short Film.

Members that think Penguin (Wallace and Gromit) is the best!

That penguin just irks me. He makes Gromit sleep outside in a doghouse. Blasphemy. Yet, he’s such a clever villian.
“Good grief, it’s you!”
It took me years to notice that at one point Wallace uses a hair dryer which makes his ears flap about.
He’s bald.
Brilliant film. The oddest thing about it is that I can tell that Nick Park comes from Lancashire – the general feel of the setting strongly suggests Preston, or maybe Blackburn.
One of my favourite lines, as Wallace’s wardrobe succumbs to the Techno-Trousers, is “There goes me knotted pine!”
Have you seen this chicken?
Hate penguins for the rest of your life? Never!
I said it was a good reason to hate penguins…; I didn’t say I hate penguins! ;)
He is a prick, but he has his reasons.
