Coraline (2009)

i have very mixed feelings about this movie.

the DVD offers it in 3D and 2D

"i believe 3D is just a gimick," i told my friend, "dating back to the 40's and 50's right next to smell-o-vision and cinemascope."

but all that set aside, 

its impressive.

i love how Neil Gaiman benifits from the movie.

if you don't know already, he's the author of the book, Coraline, and the author of the prestigious graphic novel, Sandman. 

i love stop motion.

did you know that the snow in the movie was made from superglue and baking soda?

crazy, right?

i've seen the movie 1 1/2 times. both in 3D. i know i will like it better in 2D where i can appreciate it better.

i think my favorite part is the very beginning where the Coraline doll is being sewn.

i also like how Coraline is so unappreciated.

its a feeling alot of kids know too well.

everyone keeps calling her Caroline. 

she corrects them yet they don't seem to hear her.
