"Jambareeqi Shorts" - The Wallace & Gromit Anthology 

I like Grand day out the most because it didn't have a villian villian. He was just a robot who wanted to go skiing. Plus they build a rocket and go to the moon to get cheese! Somehow they make an out there concept feel grounded.

Wallace and Gromit is a timeless series. It truly broke my heart when you said he died...

Despite it's flaws, my personal favorite short is "A Close Shave". I mainly like it because I think Preston is an intimidating villain with him rustling sheep and turning them into dog food, him abusing and manipulating Wendelene, and the fact he tries to kill not only the sheep, but also Wallace and Wendelene. Though "The Wrong Trousers" is a close second in my eyes.

I think it should be illegal for anyone to dislike Wallace & Gromit

Fun Fact: Gromit was going to speak, he was going to have the voice of Peter Hawking, Nick had trouble animating the mouth, he made him silent when he discovered the eyebrows can help him express.

R.I.P Peter Sallis. ;_;

God, the memories this brings back! I love Wallace and Gromit and Aardman studios: Back when my mum could eat cheese, her absolute favourite was Wensleydale and Cranberry; I collected the magazine series, watched the DVDs all the time, I was in a rabbit phase with Curse of the Were Rabbit and Watership Down, I started snacking on crackers with butter, I bought a lovely brown teapot, I planted by own vegetable garden and I even remember drawing some pictures based around them to help me learn maths! XD So yeah, I LOVED these two as a kid. At first I didn't want to be too sad with Sallis’s death. He had a good career with both this and Last of the Summer Wine. Plus he was in his 90s, so he wasn't gone too soon. Then it really hit me, like, wow… no more Wallace and Gromit… Gromit’s on his own now. :( I love what the shorts managed to do with characters like the Robot from the first short and Feathers McGraw, it’s pretty amazing how they managed to make them so expressive and threatening, despite how they cant even move their faces. It’s no wonder we all found that penguin shit-scary! I think that moment where he pulls his gun out makes everyone go “Fuckin’ ‘ell!” @___@ I love your description of Piella (or however her names spelt), I can vouch that those kinds off utterly detestable and two-faced villains are a lot of fun to write and seeing people’s reactions for. Then again, you’d know, given the General from Echogeddon. Wallace and Gromit were always a beloved part of my life, but only now as an adult do I truly appreciate it’s britishness and how genuine it is. Especially with how Northern it is.

2:58 And I don't think anyone could've replaced him. Rest in peace, Peter. =(

Did you know that A Grand Day Out was going to be a 40 minute movie that included the robot, Aliens, a Spoof of Star Wars, a fast food restaurant on the moon, and Wallace getting thrown in jail and Gromit was to rescue him. But someone at Aardman said it would take forever to make it so he scrapped everything except the robot.

18:10 hey look at the mirror in the background! it’s that same windmill you see at the beginning of the Thomas and Friends intro!

All 'Wallace and Gromit' films (short or feature-length) were treasures. If Peter Sallis passing means that this is the end of the franchise, however, I say it's for the better-especially in a day and age where so many Hollywood executives desperately try to drag a franchise/series for their own greedy needs. Aardman will always be one of the greatest animation studios in my opinion (I mean, if the worse they can do is 'Flushed Away', which is still not bad, you know you've got a good studio). Even if they can't live on forever, hopefully they can inspire someone else to come in and be as new and as great as they are. As timeless as'Wallace and Gromit' is, and while we still have 'Shaun the Sheep', maybe it'll be high time for it to inspire a new, great stop-motion franchise for this generation.

I understand that stop motion animation is a LOT of hard work, time and patience to put into something that runs for 30 minutes in the finished product, but I REALLY hope that they continue with the Wallace and Gromit series, and I hope the new voice actor of Wallace will carry on Peter Sallis' legacy in the series!

I LOVED Wallace and gromit. My cousin introduced it to me when I was like around 4 or 5. I remember that old tune that would start every episode. My favorite episode was the wrong trousers. I loved trains so since there was a train, the wrong trousers became my favorite

Even though gromit doesn't talk, he still has a lot to say

Aardman always create great villains they’re either really well developed and sympathetic like Paella or The Toad, hilariously over the top like Victor Quartermaine or A. Trumper or they’re unsettlingly creepy like Feathers McGraw or Preston

Apparently Gromit was going to have a voice. And famous British voice actor Peter Hawkins was going to play the part.

A close shave is my favourite of the four

The voice of piella is actually one of my favourite soap opera characters which both have the same name sally Lindsey from coronation street

I used to wonder if Feathers already had a plan to steal the diamond and if he was always going to before seeing what the techno trousers could do, cos to me after that is when he's starts going out and getting everything ready. 🐧💎

I LOVE in a matter of loaf and death Wallace yells out IVE GOT A BOMB IN ME PANTS

ahhhh wallace and gromit. i have A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers, A Close Shave all on dvd in one set and spent fair ammout of time watching them as a kid. good times...good times

This was my favorite claymation of all time! I remember seeing a few shorts on tv back when I was five or six and just was stunned by seeing clay figures move around like live people. It was the first time I'd ever seen stopmotion/claymation in ever. I even remember the shorts I saw, the ending of "A Grand Day Out" and the whole short "A Close Shave". After that I got two of the short films on VHS (A Grand Day Out, and The Wrong Trousers) and recorded the third off a library copy. Saw the movie in theater, loved it and still do. Wallace and Gromit got me into stopmotion and I'll forever be thankful for this series to inspire me in stopmotion animation, showing me that 2D cell animation and later 3D animation or live action isn't the only way to tell a story. I'm glad this series is as popular as it is even here in the U.S. RIP Peter Sallis

*Wallace and Gromit are one of my favorite characters in animation they are an amazing duo they’re best friends🩵❤️*

Agrees with a Matter of loaf and death.

I like The Wrong Trousers most, I love the way they show Wallace as naive but well-meaning, Gromitt as vulnerable but able to fight back and Feathers is my favourite villain of the series due to how silently creepy he is

Wallace and gromit is one of the best stop motion series of all time, and I recommend it HIGHLY to anyone who hasn't seen it

True! That penguin's expressionless expressions were really scary and spooked me and gromit out.I watched this in Pogo channel here in India 14 to 15 years back.To me its a feel good,simple,calm and slow series with everything happening subtly in the episodes.This is a show u truly enjoy if you watch in a silent atmosphere with some sweet milk tea and yummy crackers.Those beautiful days!!!😭😭😭😭

I enjoyed watching the three original Wallace and Gromit shorts when I was a child and as an adult I enjoyed A Matter of Loaf and Death as well as The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. I was saddened to hear about the passing of Peter Sallis. May he rest in peace.

I always wondered what made the red man red. It was just his suit, tie, and his hat.

You should review wallace & gromit: the curse of the were-rabbit, which was made by Dreamworks with Aardman animations.

FUN FACT: Feathers MacGraw made cameos in ReBoot until enough was enough to prevent copyright infringement from Aardman and Nick Park.

2:31 I went to Sheffield Hallam University as well! I feel honoured that I went to the same school as you and Nick Park

I LOVED PETER SALLIS AS THE VOICE OF WALLACE.

The wallace and Gromit shorts always play on tv every Christmas and Easter in Australia still till this day 🇦🇺

I think Gromit was more Sherlock Holmes than Batman.

I love stop motion because what you see physically exists. Great video as always, and happy 5th year anniversary! Also where does the name "Jambareeqi" come from?

Wallace's face at 7:56

15:07 there’s that dish again that looks like whipped cream and hot dogs mashed together! the same one I saw in that Shaun the sheep episode!....what is that thing?!

Aardman should do a Gromit and fluffles series it would be cute.

i think that if they recast somebody as wallace right then the series can go on so i don't think it just mean the series should end

I love Wallace and Gromit

My favorite was "A Close Shave"

it's very hard to pick, but my favorite one is the wrong trousers because it introduced me to the series.

I hope Wallace and Gromit rests well. I don't want Aardman to ever needs to revisit this series because it's literally perfect

Man, Wallace had a great voice actor

This is the first time I heard anyone call Loaf & Death their fav. Interesting

In the Grand Adventures game, a robot and two dogs were jailed in a human prison.

Jambareeqi, love your video of it and from beginning to the end of the video you just got peter sallis's blessing if he was still alive and to let you know I miss him too

15:03: Counting/sentence fail: Short says it’s a Baker’s Dozen (13), yet the reviewer says it’s a dozen bakers (12). Perhaps he could've said "kill a baker's dozen of pastry cooks as revenge, with Wallace being her 13th victim.”

I like how the shorts get darker as each one goes on

My favorite Wallace and Gromit short is a matter of loath and death: the reason is because of the great villian and the mystery that is represented in the short. Oddly enough I just watched today cause it's been awhile since I have seen it and one thing that I noticed in the scene where Piella comes up stairs to her bedroom she sees her photo album with all the other bakers she has killed opened. Anyone would just assume she had just left it open but I think she knew that Gromit was in the bedroom and she acted like he wasn't when she closed the book and when she moved the mirror a second later. Fluffles also knows he's here when she catches his scent, which acts as red herring for the audience to only think that fluffles is the only one who knows he is in the room. Another tip to the fact that Piella also knows he is or was in the room is when he has a dream about him falling on top of her only for it to be revealed as a nightmare as well noticing she wasn't there. And what follows next is Gromit trying to protect Wallace with the whole airport security and it was at that point she knew she had to step up her game and since she knew fluffles and Gromit had feelings for each other she knew how to lure him away from Wallace. Out of all of the Aardman villains she is probably the smartest one. She's like a combination between a James Bond villain and professor Moriarty with a hint of a Batman villain. Second favorite is more of tie between a close shave and wrong trousers because both have an intriguing twist and turns along with two great villains. Third favorite is a grand day out and that short is actually pretty much fun to watch to with some cheese and crackers. As for the movie well it's not as good as the shorts but it's one of aadrmans' best feature films and a nice twist on the kids horror movie genre with some good comedy and great twist. The villain is weak and is more like Gaston from beauty and the beast but the were rabbit transformation is just awesome. All of the adventures of Wallace and Gromit is a pure Hitchcock with some great British humor. As an American I will gladly take enjoy the fantastic world of Aardman Animation one slow movement at a time.

I can see why you wouldn't want anymore Wallace and Gromit shorts and I share some of your feelings towards it. But at the same time, I really don't want the last things Wallace and Gromit related to be a 7 episode educational series and a theme park attraction (which is really awesome but that's besides the point) Also, Wallace and Gromit are just too iconic to drop. They're now these timeless characters that will come always come back. They are the British Mickey Mouse or Looney Tunes and they're going to be kept around forever (even if that means going through different voice actors).

Great to see you talking about Wallace and Gromit. Especially as a remembrance to the voice actor of Wallace, Peter Sallis.

LOVE the Wallace and Gromit shorts, as well as the movie.

Have you heard the news? There’s going to be a new Wallace & Gromit movie coming to Netflix in 2024

God rest Peter, he was the best voice actor for Wallace. ✌️😇

I just enjoy Wallace and Gromit; R.I.P. Peter sallies 😔

Here are my opinion of the Wallace and Gromit shorts Antagonists: *1. Feathers McGraw from The Wrong Trousers (1993) is very silent, but deadly type of animal villain. *2. Preston from A Close Shave (1995) is a cyberpet have gone rogue and He is also very silent, but deadly type of robot villain. *3. Piella Bakewell from A Matter Of Loaf and Death (2008) is a baker-hating serial killer.

Wasn't Gromit actually locked up in the zoo? The same as Feathers?

Wait that music in the background for the grand day out segment. That's the same music Jobbythehong uses in his videos.

What do you think of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Ware Rabbit?

I’d rank the shorts: 1. The Wrong Trousers 2. A Close Shave 3.A Grand Day Out 4. A Matter Of Loaf And Death I enjoy them all tho.

My favorite is a matter of loaf or death Because of the cute little poodle the romance between her and Gromit the fact that the title is a pun and I really love the part where what was her name again fluffles? I like the ending when she comes back to confront her abuser.

I love this franchise, especially i too is a Cheese lover. And they are freakin' hilarious too.

What about cracking contraptions

I Love Wallace & Gromit

Actually the fight with pie ella is a reference to the doctor who episode voyage of the dammned

"16:18 it's not that gromits a mute it's that he's a dog and dogs can't talk😂 are you sighnafing that some dogs aren't mute that can speak"

Hay jam can you do a review of classic horror films like a nightmare on elm street,Friday the 13th,and the shinning. P.S I know you like animated movies more than non animated movies I am just curious.

The Wrong Trousers is easily my favourite of the bunch.

Will you go to see "Early Man"?

I really want to watch the shorts (I've never seen them), and I wanted to ask, what is the best way to watch them? As in, are they on DVD or digital. I tried doing some research but couldn't find much.

Even tho it does have it's moments, I've always thought A Matter of Loaf and Death is the weakest one. I'm not saying it's bad or anything, I just prefer the other three over it.

Id love to see you do a review of curse of the wear rabbit

Actually, Wallace and Gromit had way more than 4 shorts.

[13.01]-[13.05] Jambareeqi, you have to understand that W&G has a very low budget compared to other animated films. Which do you think is cheaper- having Wallace sitting around reading papers or having to build an entire new set with puppets as the judge, jury and audience, etc. However there is no evidence that he didn’t attend the trials.

I wanna see a Gromit short with him as a James Bond 007 parody.

I’ve never met someone who haven’t watched all the shorts

Me and my Dad are huge fans of these

R.I.P Wallace

I know this an old video, but heres how i think Jambareeqi ranks the "Wallce and Gromit" shorts from Best to Worst 4. A Close Shave 3. A Grand Day Out 2. The Wrong Trousers 1. A Matter of Loaf and Death

My favourite Wallace and Gromit movie 🎬 is The Wrong 👎 Trousers 👖 because it's a funny 😄 part and the best part was when Gromit slides out of Wallace's bed went into Wallace's clothing black to front then Gromit had jam in his face thought it was toast lol

Holy shit! Happy Feet is packin' heat!

I wish this was a tv show. Though I know shawn the sheep got his own spin off.

Awesome video. Did you ever play the Wallace and Gromit video games btw?

What I hav enoticed is that in every film after the wrong trousers Wallace and Gromit have some kind of business, and they take in a lodger cos they need money, nice continuity. (Btw a close shave is actually my favorite)

Awesome review of 4 wonderful shorts Jam. Did you also like Curse of the Were Rabbit?

Did you know piella is sally linsday from coronation Street

They made 5 Short movies & 1 long movie

JAMBAREEQI: I just don't think anyone can even come close to doing Peter Sallis's Wallace voice. BEN WHITEHEAD: Hold my cheese! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZfOGAcyGsCA.html

1st The Curse of the Were Rabbit 2nd The wrong trousers 3rd A close shave 4th A grand day out 5th Cracking contraptions 6th A matter of loaf and death A grand day out 5/10 The wrong trousers 8/10 A close shave 7/10 Cracking contraptions 5/10 The Curse of the Were Rabbit 8/10 A matter of loaf and death 2/10

Jambareeqi+ Since it's Sad that Peter Sallis passed away on June 2nd last month after the whole years of him voicing in our Childhood. Actually Ben Whitehead did the voice of Wallace in The NPower and Holiday Advert on TV and now there's no rumor that Wallace and Gromit will have anymore shorts. Michael Bond the author of Paddington also Sadly Passed Away and now Paddington 2 will have to Dedicate for Memory in the End Credit when Paddington 2 is out on November if you have seen the Paddington Movie.

I completely agree that no-one else could do Wallace justice but the late Peter Sallis. Personally, I think the franchise is near-perfect as it is: just the four short films and the feature-length movie. I love them all, they're some of my absolute favourite animated productions. Rest in peace Peter Sallis.

What's more interesting about Piella, is that she is like a combination of Feathers and Preston. She is a manipulative and cunning schemer, tricking Wallace with a false personality, but also a cruel and brutal abuser. Wonder if this was Nick Park's intentions. And that's just something i have just realized today!

I'm honestly a big Wallace and Gromit fan! Curse of the were rabbit was one of my FAVOURITE films as a kid! Do you consider reviewing that one any time?

I agree with your opinion because my opinions are your opinions as well. I always wanna write comic books as an adult. When I see a bad movie, I cringe a lot. And I mean A LOT.

An awesome video. :) By the way, did you ever play any of the Wallace and Gromit video games? Some of them did feature Peter Sallis as the voice of Wallace.

I personally haven't watched any of the shorts. I only saw Curse of the Were-Rabbit, which I really enjoyed. I love how charming Wallace is, and Gromit is a very expressive character. I would love to give these shorts a watch, but they don't seem to be on here.

17:19 pun intended?

But my favorite wallace and gromit short is A matter of loaf and death because the character fluffles reminds me of fifi from the peanuts movie.
