3D or Not 3D?

In Atlanta airport en route to Dublin. Thought I would answer a few questions, then looked at watch and realised I only have time to answer one. So...

Hi Neil, how are you? Hope you are well.

I don't know if this is a FAQ, but I really want to know your opinion on this.

Coraline starts showing on Brazilian movie theaters today and I have a kind of a dilemma: there is no technology to put subtitles on 3D films right now. I realy don't like dubbed films, because I think I lose all the acting nuances in their voices and so on. But in this case, I would very much like to see the movie in 3D...

So, if you were in the same situation, what would you do???

Thank you very much for all the stories,

Marcel

Easy. See it in 3D.

You can always go back and watch it in 2D. The DVD will come out later this year and be around for ever. You'll get to appreciate the US cast's voice acting then. This may be your only chance to see CORALINE in 3D.

(Same goes for the US. If you're putting off seeing it in 3D, don't: we lose the screens to the Jonas Bros 3D movie in a week or so.)

The 3D Coraline Trailer

By some odd coincidence, these two came in back to back...

Hey Neil,

I've heard that with some prints of Beowulf there was a trailer for Henry Selick's Coraline adaption. Is this true? And if so, do you have it? Can you maybe link or post it? I'm sure many of us would love to see it. Thank you.

Hello Mr. Gaiman.

I was absolutely chuffed to finally see a trailer for Coraline when I went to see Beowulf. I'm really looking forward to the movie.

I cannot, however seem to find the trailer on the internet. Is it available anywhere? Do I simply have horrible Googling skills?

If you would direct me to a site with the trailer I will be most appreciative as I'd like to share it with friends who haven't yet seen it.

Many thanks!

You can't find the pre-Beowulf trailer for Coraline on the internet, because as far as I can tell, it isn't there yet -- probably because it's only a 3D trailer (and it looks so much better in 3D than flat, especially the poking needle going through the buttonhole).

I've got a copy, though, and I've asked The Folk At Laika how they'd feel about me putting it up. Let me see what we can do...

Here's today's dog-bounding-through-the-snow photo, because he looks a bit wolfier or doggier and a bit less ice-weaselly.

Right. Back to proofreading.
