Do You Know Wallace and Gromit? Quiz

Answer: Dog

Gromit is Wallace's best friend and assistant in all of his various businesses. Gromit shows unique intelligence; a few of his astounding abilities include reading, crocheting, and working on mechanics.

Answer: Nick Park

Nick Park, also known as Nicholas Wulstan Park, directs "Wallace and Gromit". Since childhood he has been very fascinated with cartoon writing and animation. Originally, the shorts he had produced (namely, "A Grand Day Out," "The Wrong Trousers," and "A Close Shave") were not advertised in the United States.

The first "Wallace and Gromit" feature to be advertised completely at the time of its release in the United States was "Curse of the Were-Rabbit".

Answer: Stop-motion clay animation

Stop-motion clay animation is an interesting subject to delve into. Nick Park had a team of workers creating different scenes at the same time, then blended them all together. As the films progress, the animation gets much smoother, due to technology and experience.

Answer: Cheese

Wallace is crazy about cheese. He eats it all the time, dives into his cheese without hesitation (even when Gromit sets traps) and knows every kind of cheese known to man.

Answer: "Everyone knows the moon is made of cheese."

In "A Grand Day Out", Wallace and Gromit engineer a rocket to fly them to the moon because they are out of cheese. This was the first episode in a series of the three initial animated shorts.

Answer: Curse of the Were-Rabbit

"Curse of the Were-Rabbit" is about Anti-Pesto, Wallace and Gromit's business to eliminate pests that might eat up the town's vegetables for the upcoming vegetable competition. Eventually, Wallace attempts to alter the rabbits' brains so that they don't want vegetables, but he ends up turning himself into a were-rabbit, an beast that eats the town's vegetables at night.

Answer: Preston

Preston, a mechanical dog, herds sheep and tears them apart to make fleece and food to sell. At the end of the short, Preston is torn up by his own machine and pieced back together to be the good dog he was intended to be.

Answer: Penguin

An unnamed penguin goes to Wallace's house and asks for lodging (Wallace has a room for rent due to his lack of money to pay bills). This penguin ends up being a robber who uses Gromit's techno-trousers to force Wallace to be his pawn in robbing a museum for a priceless diamond. He uses a rubber glove to disguise himself as a chicken.

Answer: No

Wallace and Gromit's business is window-cleaning. They use high-tech equipment and bungee cords to get the job done; Gromit ends up doing most of the work while Wallace talks to the customers.

Answer: Inventor

Wallace creates a number of gadgets to either help with his various businesses or just make his own home more convenient. He has an automatic toaster, buttons that call for Gromit's service, and an automatic dresser that dresses him up in the morning, to name a few.
