A Grand Day Out is a 1989 clay-animated short film. Created by Nick Park and Aardman Animations, it is the first installment in the Wallace and Gromit franchise.
Wallace and Gromit realise that they're out of cheese and the shops are closed. The solution? Build a rocket in the basement and take a trip to the moon... which, as everyone knows, is made of cheese. While there, they have an encounter with a coin-operated robot who's desperate to go skiing.
Tropes used in A Grand Day Out include:
This page needs more trope entries. You can help this wiki by adding more entries or expanding current ones. |
- Batman Can Breathe in Space: Most of the short takes place on the moon, sans any protective gear. Granted, they are stop-motion characters in an animated film on a moon made of cheese, so…
- Cartoon Cheese: Averted, as moon cheese doesn't look anything like typical "orange-y swiss" cartoon cheese. More like cheddar. Wallace names several terrestrial cheeses in an unsuccessful attempt to determine what moon cheese tastes like, and finally concludes, "It's like no cheese I've ever tasted."
- Retro Rocket: Their home-built rocket.
