Moral of story: never mess with Lunar radiation! ;)

Just saw Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit tonight.  It was a fun ride like all of Nick Park's stuff (and I'm a big fan particularly of British stop-motion stuff, though I haven't watched that much since my animation school days), with a lot of funny horror movie homages, and I felt good supporting Aardman Animation after what happened to their studio.  Too bad their distributor is Dreamworks though, forcing you to sit through that way-too-long, awful headache-inducing Madagascar penguins short.   Ick, it just made me thankful I never bothered with the movie.  Talk about two completely different senses of humor.   I'll take stop-motion Brit stuff any day over Hollywood CG crap (I did like The Incredibles, although I have to wonder if Brad Bird would have handled it even better were it made after Pixar left Disney...).  I hope Corpse Bride doesn't have a similar short before it, as I still want to see that (though I'll miss Henry Sellick's directorial touch from Nightmare Before Xmas and James and the Giant Peach, I'm sure--but it will be interesting to see Burton paired up with the Will Vinton team, though I've had mixed feelings about some of their past works).  

Almost done with Xenosaga's anime lately, btw.  I'll write my final impressions on it once I'm done with it.   Up to ep 30 now of Gundam Seed, which was quite spectacular after a few skipping aroung a couple of disappointing recap and flash-back-filled episodes after the start of the second half, it's regained its momentum again in the last couple of episodes I watched.
