A few weeks ago I watched Screamers (based on the short story Second Variety by Philip K. Dick) and in that, there was a short, but cool SM shot of one of the little robot beasties.  I was quite excited to see that.

All the fully stop-motion films I know have already been listed, but two more well-known films that have a bit of it in that are worth looking at are:

Robocop (the ED-209)
Terminator (the full-skeleton terminator in the the final scene)

I also have the Jurassic Park box set, and on the extras there is some awesome test footage that doesn't look like normal stop-motion because they have somehow incorporated motion-blur.

Yeah, it's amazing what motion-blur can do.  I think that's why some of the big-budget SM of late has looked so much smoother.  Although I still think the jitteriness can have its appeal, in a long short or feature film, the motion-blur makes it more accessible.

Why not start where it all began, The Lost World (1925) Directed by Harry Hoyt. See:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0016039/

Let's not forget the work of Ladislaw Starwicz.

Check out "The Cameraman's Revenge & Other Fantastic Tales" available from Image Entertainment (UPC 014381261325). This is a collection of short films dating 1912-1958.

Has anyone discovered any more stop-motion work?  I know I've checked out both Robot Chicken: Star Wars episodes, and have watched most of Robot Chicken: Season III.

I don't think anyone has mentioned the British-Polish co-production of Peter and the Wolf.

Flushed Away isn't stop motion but as its an Aardman/Dreamworks collaboration it's done in the same style as Wallace and Gromit.  I found it to be quite funny.

Fans of Svankmajer might want to also check out Jiri Barta, available on DVD as Jiri Barta: Labyrinth of Darkness - a collection of his 8 shorts released a couple years ago by Kino on the KimStim label, and is region free. (NTSC)

For some family fun, a short lived 1994 TV series called Bump In The Night has a few of its episodes currently out on DVD released by N-Circle for dirt cheap, and also a Christmas special.
