Aardman Season Coming To UK Cinemas
Aardman is the most beloved animation studio in the UK, and this year they are celebrating a significant anniversary. This year it will be 50 years since Sir Peter Lord and Sir David Spoxton cofounded the studio. In celebration of this fact, several of the studio's most loved films will be returning to cinema screens in the UK.
The shorts and features get fairly regular screenings on UK TV, but this is a rare opportunity to see them on the big screen- particularly for the shorts. Getting to see all four Wallace and Gromit shorts in cinemas has to be a first. Whether you are revisiting old classics, or you are watching them for the first time, this season is very exciting for animation fans, The season runs from July 10 to early September. All that's missing is Vengeance Most Fowl, Chicken Run 2 and Arthur Christmas. But with such an embarrassment of riches available, it seems churlish to complain...

- A Grand Day Out/ The Wrong Trousers- Out Now
