Something stinks, and it's not Wallace's cheese

At first I thought Wallace and Gromit had been shamed only by the theater I saw it at, because they screwed the name up on the ticket. (The movie's subtitle is "Curse of the Were Rabbit," or CWR. The ticket got it backwards.) But then a reader pointed me toward two other blunders plaguing the movie: The studio had trouble promoting the movie on the Isle of Portland because the word "rabbit" is too taboo there; and far more tragically, the warehouse that contained all the old Wallace and Gromit props burned down.

Oh, Wally and G, I'm sorry! If it's any consolation, I loved your new movie.
