This video was SUPPOSED to be out a little over a month ago, before the release of 'Vengeance Most Fowl' at Christmas. Now a month later I can say, this is probably the most I’ve ever worked on anything. This being the video topic that I’ve worked the most on probably tells you a lot about me as a person. There came many times where I thought I would never finish it. So if I hear any of you complaining that I didn’t talk about vengeance most fowl… shut up ok, i'm sensitive. (I’ll probably do another video specifically about that soon) Anyway, stan Nick Park
You're a little younger than my sister. She used to make me play the Wallace and Gromit song ad nauseum on guitar when I would babysit, until she fell asleep. I'm old as fuck. Now I stress hum the tune in traffic while late to work. Time is an illusion; lunch time, doubly so. We live in the best of all possible worlds.
I'm fascinated that there's apparently an advanced age where badly using youth slang becomes charming instead of cringe. Those clips were absolutely precious.
I think it's because rather than having the "how do you do fellow kids" energy of older generations trying to appeal to "the youth", it was done in like a way to show respect of appreciation for gen z interest in his work. like rather than trying to be "hip" it had that humility of "well they like my stuff, so let me try speaking their language"
I live in South Korea. Wallace and Gromit was somewhat popular a while back but not nearly a staple like it is in the uk. However, everywhere you look, you will see Gromit. Gromit is a beloved icon, particularly as a bag charm. Teen girls and young women en masse have little Gromit plushies on their backpacks, each with their own custom outfits and hats. Since then, Vengeance Most Fowl has come out and all these people with Gromit plushies are discovering that the little dog they’ve loved for so long is an established character in a really good movie. Stan Gromit, the Korean fashion icon.
I cannot read this without laughing. The British dog is a beloved icon in Korea and this is just normal to you. The world is (sometimes) so unserious lmao
I've seen those little charms and it made me so jealous that we don't even have any here! We never really have merch for any of our beloved media for some reason
I’ve loved Wallace and Gromit since I was basically a toddler. Silly story, but when I was a kid, I went to this interactive children’s museum that had a big pretend ship with a phone inside the cabin. For what, to my preschool-aged brain, were utterly magical reasons, I could sometimes talk to Wallace on the pretend phone! What I didn’t know was that there was a second phone connected to that line in another part of the museum, so my dad was actually doing a fantastic Wallace impression and tricking me. 😂
love love LOVE your point about british mundanity, something about sunday evenings and listening to the charts while having a roast or going for a long walk in the cold, w&g frequently feels like a positive version of everyday is like sunday
The chase scene in 'The Wrong Trousers' is hands down the best in the history of cinema. Better than 'The Great Escape', 'Vanishing Point', 'The Road Warrior' and 'The French Connection'.
The children’s hospital in Bristol is full of Wallace and Gromit stuff, and when I went there they played the movies on repeat while everyone was waiting 6 hours in A&E lol! Love all the Wallace and Gromit events and statues everywhere in the town, it really adds something to the atmosphere :)
I met two British backpackers in Australia who were from Bristol. They told me they used to work for a nationwide company at their Bristol office. The city of Bristol has a “Wrong Trousers Day” that is a fundraiser for Bristol Children’s Hospital, where everyone in Bristol wears comically bad trousers with their usual work uniforms. They had a meeting in the London office of their company, so commuted in their work suit and tie but wore bright purple trousers that looked really ugly. The London office had no idea about “Wrong Trousers Day” and were staring at them like WTF is going on?
I'm still baffled that a student film has such a banger of a theme tune. Also what a guy Peter Sallis is for doing Wallace, while in Last of The Summer Wine and goes along to voice a student project.
As an American, I’ll have you know that I grew up on Wallace & Gromit AND my family owned that video game, I remember playing it but I don’t remember if I ever played it through to the end lol. Love the video, it was a wonderful look back on a delightful part of my childhood
This video just made my Saturday night! Wallace and Gromit and Aardman make me so proud to be British. I mean how much popular media is set in the north of England? Basically none.
I visited the @Bristol curse of the were rabbit exhibition in 2005 right around when the Aardman studio burned down (my family drove past the destruction and it was heart breaking) and I still think about it AT LEAST annually 🥺 I have excellent pics of me with Hutch and Lady Tottington that are some of my most treasured
As a Prestonian Millennial I’m hard wired to love Wallace and Gromit. There were so many Preston/Lancashire jokes in Vengeance Most Fowl it made my Christmas.
I'm 35, American, and I grew up watching Wallace and Gromit every chance I could way back as a kid and even nowadays. 😊 And my favorite is Matter of Loaf and Death. (Fluffles is too cute. 🥺) However I haven't gotten a chance to see the newest installment yet. Anywho, thank you for this video. It was really entertaining and it was great revisiting all of the films. I'd say this video was definitely worth all of your hard work! ⭐ PS Yes, PLEASE do a video on Chicken Run! 🐓🍲🥧 PSS That Wallace face has been burned into my brain because of this, I hope you're happy, lawl!
thanks so much for taking the time on this project. it must have been SO much work with all the footage you had to aquire. Easy sub. Looking forward to hearing you go all crazy about chicken run, i love that film. we had it on vhs so i watched it so many times as a child.
Wallace and gromit a grand night out was the first show I ever saw in a theatre. I remember bits very well as it scared me so much. A woman with a prosthetic nose dressed as Gwendolyn appeared at the back of the theatre and ran down the isles at one point. Also, the penguin kept appearing above the proximium arch. I think we only watched the first act (if there was a 2nd act) as I was so scared and about 10. Weird and scary show for kids.
You have coined the term for that thing I could never explain! The British Mundane... It's that strange sort of comfort in the things we normally moan about but miss the second we're gone. 💗
Can we talk about how on point the journalists are in this country town? There's a vegetable massacre overnight without warning and they have a front page story written about it by the next morning.
Commenting (which I never do) purely to boost this as I already know how good it's going to be and how much effort and hard work has gone into putting this video together. Also, your hair looks glorious and your vibe is also immaculate. Thanks Joseph!
I can't imagine my childhood without A Grand Day Out and The Wrong Trousers. The former made me feel all cosy, watching Wallace design a rocket from scratch, and the latter crushed me when it shows Gromit leaving with that bindle stick over his shoulder. The robot from AGDO would upset me too, so misunderstood lol. At least it's happy by the end. You have to love the cheesy puns too (pun intended.) They're absolutely everywhere, from the dialogue to the newspaper headlines to shop names and products.
I've been terrified of A Grand Day Out Wallace my entire life. My nightmares still look like that damn film. Cheekless Wallace is just SO creepy looking.
Oh, oh how I have missed you! When I got this notification I made certain not to swipe it away until I had time to watch it so I wouldn’t forget. It is now time and I’m so excited Edit: PLEASE GIVE US THE CHICKEN RUN VIDEO
These two were my childhood augh... I can remember how terrified some of the films made me as an eight year old (Preston, Paella, the scene of Wallace turning into the were-rabbit). But I still love the films anyway, so quirky and active! Thank you for making this video!
This was great!!! I live in America, but I remember loving Wallace and Gromit as a kid, and especially Chicken Run!!! This made me definitely want to check out all the films. Animation is one of my favorite art forms, and wow they do such incredible work on this. I love that they still have a tight knit studio that virtually runs on the same model. In an age where everything charming seems to get bought out immediately, it's just so good. Please do Chicken Run soon!!! I would love to see that!!!
One of my earliest and most formative memories as a child is a nightmare I had about the villains in Chicken Run. Since before I was even 5 years old, this specific style of claymation has struck fear into my heart. A piece of me has remained apprehensive to Aardman style of claymation films... But I think the British Mundanity of Wallace and Gromit eases most of my worries. Thank you for making this video!! I'm happy to learn about the success and legacy of the people behind these movies. Now, I wish you all the best on your Chicken Run video, but I will not be able to watch that.
1:30:52 the fate of Gromits marrow actually made me sob as a kid but since I was 5 I couldn't put it into words so I just sobbed "THAT WAS MY BEST MARROW" and never lived it down
I always thought the robot never knew about skiing until reading the magazine, and then has a day dream about himself doing that and gets sad about its existence on the moon - always loved seeing him get his happy ending too.
your videos NEVER miss. you're the only creator i have full notificatrions for- i don't EVER wanna to miss a single one. My favorite vid of yours is the Amy Winehouse biopic review. You always tell it like it is with good humor & insights. KEEP POSTING AND PLS NEVER STOP
Thank you for this video - The Wrong Trousers is one of the few movies I remember watching with my parents when I was 3 or 4 and remember all of us laughing hysterically. And now I can watch it with my wife and our kids and still laugh just as hard. Big love to ya! ❤
Joseph I love your work so much. It feels like your EQ is really high-dominant, consonants like S or T just utterly blasting. It doesn’t keep me from watching but you could change my life with one audio filter
My friend has a real Gromit mug and for Christmas I got him a gromit mug mug. He did a stream where he took a sip out of the real mug and put it down, before taking another sip out of the gromit mug mug AND NOBODY NOTICED
I've only been on fringes of Wallace & Gromit, never really seeing fully any of the shorts or films (wasn't even aware most of them were only shorts). I was more familiar with Chicken Run, but the other day I saw Vegence Most Fowl and absolutely was delighted the whole time. I didn't know any of the backstory or the typical themes of Wallace and Gromit, but it didn't matter in the face of the charming movie. Seeing your recap of the whole series made me point to the screen like "OH THIS IS WHERE THAT CAME FROM!" the whole time. Loved all the work you put it and I definitely want to see all the other Wallace & Gromit works now!
I agree that Frog and Toad FEEL very British, but I am sorry to inform you that they are not. :( (I've been on a Frog and Toad kick with my kid, which has included listening to the audiobooks read by the author, Arnold Lobel.)
21:40 I never saw the ending of A Grand Day Out as a happy ending. The robot isn't just trying to escape the moon because it doesn't have any skiing. It's trying to escape because each time his time runs out, his lights turn out and he becomes dead. On Earth, people would keep him powered on. But alone on the moon, humans rarely came to put coins in him, and he was left alone to power off. So the ending of him alone on the moon, the robot knows that it only has a minute or so of life left until he switches off, not knowing he would be woken up in a year or a hundred years or a thousand years.
its bitter sweet. hes doing what he wanted to try on earth. his final moments he spends living his dream. we should all be very lucky to go out like that.
One of the English (As Second Language) teachers at our school used to show all Wallace and Gromit shorts during the first two lessons of the year to the 5th graders who were just starting out, vecause he said they were the perfect introduction to British culture
Fun fact: the British Council (premier British English teaching org in the world) collaborated with Aardmam to produce an ESL curriculum for young children. It’s called Learning Time with Timmy, based on the character of Timmy from Shaun the Sheep. It’s actually brilliant and Timmy is the cutest animated character in history.
I'm millenial and have always loved Wallece & Gromit. It's clear that the animations are a labour of love. The quirks of the mundane mixed with the weird and sometimes supernatural make the movies work so well.
I was a kid in the US who thankfully grew up with Wallace and Gromit. My family had a VHS box set of A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers and A Close Shave. Not a lot of other kids really knew about it, but when The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was announced, I was so excited.
You missed out Cracking Contraptions, a series of Wallace & Gromit shorts from 2002, not amazing stuff, but it still got missed. Also, more importantly, you failed to mention The Grand Appeal, Aardman's charity raising money for Bristol children's hospital. They've raised millions over the years and have really helped improve the lives of countless people. Also there's an elevator in the wing of the hospital they funded that also has Wallace's voice, which is neat.
I loved clay animation movies so much as a kid and to this day Wallace and Gromit holds a very special place in my heart as does chicken run, Shawn the sheep and a few others. Thank you for this very serious work
As a 30 year old nostalgic child I still absolutely love that scene of Wallace drawing the plans for the space ship and he’s got the little stick figure of himself and Gromit and then he just SCRIBBLES the flames
Phenomenal video, no notes, I appreciate your dedication to want to protect Gromit, I feel this too. (I named my own dog Gromit, so maybe that has something to do with it as well) Anyway add one more for the list of people who would ADORE a Chicken Run video. That is straight up a near-PERFECT movie and I would love to see you gush about it the same way as you did with these guys. I would watch it even if it was 3 hours, and would probably be ecstatic if it were. Chicken Run rules. Also, I did grow up with the Were-Rabbit PS2 game. It was actually a ton of fun as a kid. I had another called Wallace & Gromit: Project Zoo, and in my heart it's canon Feathers McGraw schemery.
This video was SUPPOSED to be out a little over a month ago, before the release of 'Vengeance Most Fowl' at Christmas. Now a month later I can say, this is probably the most I’ve ever worked on anything. This being the video topic that I’ve worked the most on probably tells you a lot about me as a person. There came many times where I thought I would never finish it.
So if I hear any of you complaining that I didn’t talk about vengeance most fowl… shut up ok, i'm sensitive. (I’ll probably do another video specifically about that soon)
Anyway, stan Nick Park
Like clay animation, perfection takes time
At least it didn't take six years
You're a little younger than my sister. She used to make me play the Wallace and Gromit song ad nauseum on guitar when I would babysit, until she fell asleep. I'm old as fuck.

Yeah, I agree. It was done fully tongue in cheek, knowing the joke is that it's incongruous to hear an older guy speak like that
I think it was because he was in on the joke, not just badly using slang he’s too old for.

Something abt a soft spoken British man talking about Wallace and Gromit is like a salve for the soul
As long as you're not tied to a chair and he's not naked.
Perfectly written
@noneofyourbusiness4616 i beg to differ...
I WILL be waiting IMPATIENTLY for the Chicken Run video, thank you very much.
Me too!!!
I took a wrong train from Pisa to fucking nowhere so this came just in time thank
stay safe I guess?
@@JosephFish3rim in good hands this is a Masterpiece!!!
europe moment
Did you get back safe? 😂
when they make gromit cry with his shiny wet eyes they make me cry too

oh i really love this. such a simple moment but it contains so much love. your dad sounds wonderful.
That’s so sweet😊
A little faith in humanity restored that’s so wholesome ☺️

Nice opinion
Preston is fucking terrifying. I know we all love Feathers, there's no emotion behind his eyes, but Preston? He has one emotion, and it is Hate
I thought you meant the city and was like ye you right
@@megaslend There is nothing more british than calling every british town a shithole.
The children’s hospital in Bristol is full of Wallace and Gromit stuff, and when I went there they played the movies on repeat while everyone was waiting 6 hours in A&E lol! Love all the Wallace and Gromit events and statues everywhere in the town, it really adds something to the atmosphere :)

ALSO there was another W&G video game called Project Zoo that we had, it was very strange but pretty fun
Ok I knew it was going to be long, but I didn’t expect I would be watching this for the rest of my evening
This video just made my Saturday night!
Wallace and Gromit and Aardman make me so proud to be British. I mean how much popular media is set in the north of England? Basically none.

As a Prestonian Millennial I’m hard wired to love Wallace and Gromit. There were so many Preston/Lancashire jokes in Vengeance Most Fowl it made my Christmas.
"thank you joseph" we all chant in unison
No room for Morph, but a top corner spot for Whoopi Goldberg?
Claymation and Stopmotion are drastically underappreciated art forms
30:47 I’m actually crying right now it’s his birthday that’s so unfair
Can I also mention that Wallace’s pajamas are very Troy Sivan coded
26:11 og's will remember the card used to play the Happy Birthday song, before the owner of the song copyrighted anyone who used it
And also "who's that doggie in the window" playing on gromits radio in the wrong trousers
I remember that! I remember hearing it change as a kid and it drove me crazy 😂
Wait, I remember that! I’m an American who would watch these with rented videos from the library.
Aardman’s early work is actual nightmare fuel, also fun fact the variation of 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree' at 28:48 is lost media
big up the aardman shorts!! theyre on youtube for free in a big playlist
I'm 35, American, and I grew up watching Wallace and Gromit every chance I could way back as a kid and even nowadays. 😊
And my favorite is Matter of Loaf and Death. (Fluffles is too cute. 🥺) However I haven't gotten a chance to see the newest installment yet.
Anywho, thank you for this video. It was really entertaining and it was great revisiting all of the films. I'd say this video was definitely worth all of your hard work! ⭐
PS Yes, PLEASE do a video on Chicken Run! 🐓🍲🥧
PSS That Wallace face has been burned into my brain because of this, I hope you're happy, lawl!
I’ve been following the journey of this video for over a month😭😭 hyped for this shiii luv u king 🤴
Did anyone else have that DVD that had the three shorts on it and the menu was Wallace reading the newspaper? I did and I watched it RELIGIOUSLY!
I did a full rewatch of every other Wallace and Gromit film before I watched the new one. So much fun and holds up so well. Excellent video.
thanks so much for taking the time on this project. it must have been SO much work with all the footage you had to aquire. Easy sub. Looking forward to hearing you go all crazy about chicken run, i love that film. we had it on vhs so i watched it so many times as a child.

I used to play the 3 telltale wallace and gromit games constantly as a kid, they were so fun
Thanks for all the fabulous content, legend. Big love from Australia
Commenting (which I never do) purely to boost this as I already know how good it's going to be and how much effort and hard work has gone into putting this video together. Also, your hair looks glorious and your vibe is also immaculate. Thanks Joseph!
i had been fighting it off, but this video is what tipped me over the edge and convinced me to take the plunge and buy the gromit mug
so cheers joseph
I can't imagine my childhood without A Grand Day Out and The Wrong Trousers. The former made me feel all cosy, watching Wallace design a rocket from scratch, and the latter crushed me when it shows Gromit leaving with that bindle stick over his shoulder. The robot from AGDO would upset me too, so misunderstood lol. At least it's happy by the end.
You have to love the cheesy puns too (pun intended.) They're absolutely everywhere, from the dialogue to the newspaper headlines to shop names and products.
I've been terrified of A Grand Day Out Wallace my entire life. My nightmares still look like that damn film. Cheekless Wallace is just SO creepy looking.
This video is your own ‘Grand day out’! Well done Joseph.
Oh, oh how I have missed you!
When I got this notification I made certain not to swipe it away until I had time to watch it so I wouldn’t forget. It is now time and I’m so excited
Edit: PLEASE GIVE US THE CHICKEN RUN VIDEO
The cheese I need in these trying times. My lactose intolerance won't stop me.
Wallace and Gromit might be the one thing to unite all generations, Boomer, Millennial, X, Z
I love how Joseph looks like the photo of a young Wallace with baby Gromit, sans moustache 😁
I've been waiting too long for this... FINALLY
oh i really love how you dressed like wallace for the video, so good
as joes manager
please fucking help- joes been missing for months. he comes back and now he cant stop doing a wallace impression. somebody help me
I can back this up

You have no idea how much i needed a wallace and gromit deep dive.
Crackin video, Joseph!
Feathers McGraw is the scariest bowling pin with eyes
The bow ties are great
this video is blessed ❤

waiting to see if you or anyone will address whoopi goldberg on the mood board
this video is glorious cinema, and i will advocate for a shaun the sheep legacy video.

29:08 to be fair it is a room in a flat in Wigan
Thank you for this video - The Wrong Trousers is one of the few movies I remember watching with my parents when I was 3 or 4 and remember all of us laughing hysterically. And now I can watch it with my wife and our kids and still laugh just as hard. Big love to ya! ❤
Getting to 1hr 30min and realising I haven't seen the latest movie. So I have to pause this and go and check it out
a grand day out made that moon cheese look so good, probs why I ate so much play dough as a kid just chasing that high
Joseph I love your work so much. It feels like your EQ is really high-dominant, consonants like S or T just utterly blasting. It doesn’t keep me from watching but you could change my life with one audio filter
This was such a well researched and edited video. It was a joy to watch!
Please review Vengeful most fowl as well because this video is fantastic

Curse of the were-rabbit was my introduction to body horror at 4 years old. Idk how to feel about that
50:35 shout out to all the Aussie viewers 😅
This video was great!!! I hope the chicken run video comes out sooner than later 🫶
This video is so great I enjoyed it so much!! Thank you Joseph
this is exactly what I’ve been searching for my whole life
i love wallace and gromit! I love an in depth video from someone who I can tell really appreciates the work!
Joseph I have to say, I really do want you to speak about Chicken Run - and yes I am scared
I love Wallace and Gromit!! This is my first introduction to your channel, and your voice is so nice to listen to
Quality content I didn't know I needed.
oh my god you have no idea how excited i got when i saw this was finally out..
This is about to become my comfort video
I'm millenial and have always loved Wallece & Gromit. It's clear that the animations are a labour of love. The quirks of the mundane mixed with the weird and sometimes supernatural make the movies work so well.
27:22 I think this was a nod to the kids show Dog & Duck
Honestly barely noticed that the video was 2 hours it was engaging but well paced in my opinion well done
I was a kid in the US who thankfully grew up with Wallace and Gromit. My family had a VHS box set of A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers and A Close Shave. Not a lot of other kids really knew about it, but when The Curse of the Were-Rabbit was announced, I was so excited.
We recently found a clip review of the stage production
I saw it on Twitter literally yesterday after i finished the video, insane timing. Wish I knew about it before
@@JosephFish3r amazing timing, hopefully we see a recording of the play in full someday
You missed out Cracking Contraptions, a series of Wallace & Gromit shorts from 2002, not amazing stuff, but it still got missed. Also, more importantly, you failed to mention The Grand Appeal, Aardman's charity raising money for Bristol children's hospital. They've raised millions over the years and have really helped improve the lives of countless people. Also there's an elevator in the wing of the hospital they funded that also has Wallace's voice, which is neat.
I adore your personality and how genuine you seem! also, how you're kinda dead pan over everything all of the time
I love your videos so much😊making me so happy! Thank you 🙏💝
My biggest flex is that I'm from the same town as the legend that is Nick Park.
I loved clay animation movies so much as a kid and to this day Wallace and Gromit holds a very special place in my heart as does chicken run, Shawn the sheep and a few others. Thank you for this very serious work
As a 30 year old nostalgic child I still absolutely love that scene of Wallace drawing the plans for the space ship and he’s got the little stick figure of himself and Gromit and then he just SCRIBBLES the flames
With that amazing random sound effect that goes with it lol
I just binged the entire Wallace & Gromit catalogue tonight, and this is the first video I see as I open UA-cam. This is cosmic intervention.
I remember seeing “The Wrong Trousers” at an animation festival in Minneapolis soon after it came out. The crowd went wild. 🥰
21:34 “accidentally ignites the fuel” AS HE PULLS OUT A WHOLE BOX OF MATCHES AND LIGHTS THEM??? 💀💀
Phenomenal video, no notes, I appreciate your dedication to want to protect Gromit, I feel this too. (I named my own dog Gromit, so maybe that has something to do with it as well)
Anyway add one more for the list of people who would ADORE a Chicken Run video. That is straight up a near-PERFECT movie and I would love to see you gush about it the same way as you did with these guys. I would watch it even if it was 3 hours, and would probably be ecstatic if it were. Chicken Run rules.
Also, I did grow up with the Were-Rabbit PS2 game. It was actually a ton of fun as a kid. I had another called Wallace & Gromit: Project Zoo, and in my heart it's canon Feathers McGraw schemery.
