Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions

From Aardman Animations and creator Nick Park, Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions (2002) is available to watch online on iFILM — ten Plasticine short films, each built around one of Wallace's new inventions and what inevitably goes wrong with it.

Directed by Loyd Price and Christopher Sadler, these webisodes were among the first animated shorts built specifically for internet distribution, at a time when that was still an experiment. Peter Sallis voices Wallace throughout. Each film runs about two minutes. Gromit never says a word — and still manages to carry every scene. Stream Cracking Contraptions on iFILM.
