Coraline movie
Just learned that Henry Selick (Nightmare Before Christmas, James and the Giant Peach) is directing a movie based on Coraline (yes, the Neil Gaiman book), to be released in about a month.
The preview leads me to suspect that I'll have much the same reaction as to Selick's previous movies: visually excellent, but not so much my kind of thing otherwise. But I'm sure I'll see it anyway. IIrc, I liked the book rather more than I expected to.
