Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

It may be because bunnies hold a special part of my heart. It may be because I've been an admirer of Wallace & Gromit for years. It may be because I like kids' movies with an adult edge. But Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is HI-larious. Seriously. When Wallace grows ears and says "it's this veg diet you've got me on; it's the toxins working their way out" I about lost it. In fact, I did. I had to rewind to hear the next line. And how cute are those bunnies floating around in his trap?! Not quite as cute as Hutch and not nearly as cute as Gromit in the Lady Bunny costume.

It's a can't-miss flick for bunnylovers everywhere. Or, really, for anyone who likes to laugh.

Thousand-Hand Guan Yin

Sometimes I just like to post cool stuff here on BunnyBlab. My friend Judy sent me the link to this video. It's simply amazing. Here's the description:

There is an awesome dance, called the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, which is making the rounds across the net. Considering the tight coordination required, their accomplishment is nothing short of amazing, even if they were not all deaf. Yes, you read correctly. All 21 of the dancers are complete deaf-mutes. Relying only on signals from trainers at the four corners of the stage, these extraordinary dancers deliver a visual spectacle that is at once intricate and stirring. Its first major international debut was in Athens last year at the closing ceremonies for the 2004 Paralympics. But it had long been in the repertoire of the Chinese Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe and had traveled to more than 40 countries. Its lead dancer is 29 year old Tai Lihua, who has a BA from the Hubei Fine Arts Institute. The video was recorded in Beijing during the Spring Festival this year.



Here's the Google Vid link.
