Last night's movie: Coraline. Wow! The book is a fave but I hadn't re-read it before seeing the film version. So watching the movie I was sorta remembering things as they happened. Amazing work by Henry Selick and his team. We did not see the 3D version (the time worked out better for the 2D version) but I don't feel like I missed anything. There were a few spots when I thought "oh, that's there for the 3D" (the Other Father's intro scene, bits of the Mouse Circus). Seems like the 3D was built into the movie pretty organically and not tacked on. Noone playing paddle ball at the screen, in other words. Good voice work throughout. Although there are some name actors in the cast, they were mostly not SO recognizable as to be distracting. I did spend a few scenes thinking "hey, that's John Hodgman" but only his first few. Anyway, just a wonderful, wonderful movie.
