b"This week, Matt and Steve say 'Cheese!' and take a look at the last non-CGI Best Animated Picture winner, 2005's Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit! Just what makes these two characters so delightful? Is it the animation? The voice work? There is a timelessness to the setting and stories of Were-Rabbit, and Matt gets to mine his considerable knowledge of Hammer and Universal horror films to dissect this loving homage to both. Which, despite its boundless joy and comedy, has some great 'scary movie' tropes to it. Plus, we answer your questions about animated films and this year's Oscar race!\\n\\nDrop us a line at oscarwatchpodcast@gmail.com and find us on social media @oscarwatchpod. \\n\\nNext week, we travel from the idyllic English countryside to the jungles of Nam. Oh yes, it's time for Platoon."
