  • Holy crap if this was a live action movie i would totally be freaked out OMG if i saw a really person with button eyes i would die

  • i hope they make a sequle

  • Stop motion films such as Coraline are magical. :)))))

  • I would do ANYTHING to be able to go down to the studios and play with the puppets and mini sets ^O^

    I know theyre not meant to be played wiht but COME ON! I know you want to..

  • tro collllllllllll

  • Oh my twitchy, witchy girl. I think you are so nice. I give you bowls of porridge. I give you bowls of ice... cream. I give you lots of kisses. I give you lots of hugs. But I never give you sandwiches with grease and worms and mung... beans.

    I love this movie :)

  • Excellent film. 

  • That is the most amazing kind of way to make a movie. Really.

  • 1 how did they don that

  • Cool film

  • ☻_☻ sure this mobie was creepy, disturbing, strange, but it wasn't scary....

  • @StoryOfVic well not the "freaky right up in your face" kind of scary. but the ideas in the story are creepy.

  • Maybe not in a "Boo!" kind of way...

  • @UberMan5000 I was a scary movie after I watched I was thinking if it would have been a live action movie it would have been a bonafide horror movie

  • Wow!

    I thought Tim Burton worked with Henry Selick and Neil Geiman had NOTHING to do with it- until I read his book.

    The way they made this was truly amazing. Years and YEARS of nothing but clay, jelly substance, moving things second after second, and when you mess up, YOU HAVE TO START THE SCENE ALL OVER! Did you know they only got a minute and a half done every WEEK? Must've been Hell for the producers!

    If you prefer pink-

    Or vermilion-

    Or chartruce

    You might make me jealous! ☻_☻

  • ok, everything is made for the movie, totally awesome!!!!!!!!

  • Well that's why the movie is rated PG, but I don't think you give kids enough credit about what they can take. ;)

  • I know seriously. I'm 11 and i remember being 9 and I would have so been able to take this

  • i used to watch 18 movies when i was 9.

  • no because this show may cuz kids to have nightmares and in the movie the two aunt are wearing bikini

  • i know ive watched it 10 times! most ,i was on my own n besides i LUV CORALINE!!!!!!!

  • My son is almost 7, and he loves this movie! He understands that the "other mother" isn't Coraline's mother. The button eyes give it away, lol. We love this dark, creepy, magical movie!

  • yes i totally agree.. kids arent as stupid or as clueless as ppl think. they are very smart. they catch on quickly.

  • not to be mean but coraline is a little creepy

  • @HuskeyShepardLab10 it's meant to be creepy. that's what makes it so interesting!

  • ok i love this movie the way it was made the animation in the movie all of that i think is amazing but i have a question and i dont want people jumping my throat but does anyone think the ending of the movie the whole"game" sequence makes it go really downhill as the storylinei mean i havent read the book, like i said the stop motion animation is amazing thats basicallhy well mostly why i got it..but the story i thought was so great and was leading somewhere amazing and then it just...

    lola

  • The book ended the same way, with Coraline competing against her Other Mother in a "finding" game. It makes up the entire third act of the book.

    Chapter VIII, Page 91:

    Coraline's mouth watered. "You like games," she said. "That's what I've been told."

    The other mother's black eyes flashed. "Everybody likes games," was all she said.

    "Yes," said Coraline. She climbed down from the counter and sat at the table.

    Etc etc. I can't type the whole thing, but you get the idea. You should read it. ;)

  • @BlueRainsRed i never read the book eather but i thought the ending was great!

  • Coraline would be freaking awesome if it was made with live action instead of stop-motion,scare the crap out of me lol

  • No it wouldn't, it would look like a bunch of blokes in costumes trying really hard to do what this movie is doing. There are things you can do in animation that you can't do in live action, and a lot of them are done in Coraline.

  • Wow, I couldn't do that. I would work for about three days, go crazy, crush everything with a sledge hammer, and then get fired. They did an AMAZING job, it is a great movie.

  • hi =)

    this movie is really great... if you wanna see a good parody of this movie enter to: karinaline y la puerta no tan secreta

    it is amazing!!! =P

  • The mouse scene must have been hell to do!

  • Stop motion is sooooooooo amazing!

  • My 2nd favorite animation film. Loved the atmosphere, style and the landscape!

  • What's your first favourite?

  • Studio Ghibli's "My neighbor totoro". I think all the Ghibli movies are amazing.

  • I love the way Neil said "They've got rooms where they're painting trees!" He sounded like a children's fantasy narrator/storyteller.

  • @Sunzu49 oh good i'm not alone in that ahahaha i agree

  • I would have to agree, and I am a profesional 3d artist, I want other mediums to catch up with the 3d art form in poularity, escpecially stop motion. Favorite movie. This and spirited away.

  • It's got a nice grim texture to it. A change from the bright gloss of 3D animation we have had recently.

  • that's whats so amazing about stop motion, its real and solid and three dimensional without being oversaturated. without the odd angular, jittery movements it wouldnt quite be the same. althout they did an amazing job with the facial expressions.

  • I really hope this movie gets a few oscars, it well deserves it.

  • stop at 1:40

    that wouldve hurt like shit

  • Well Coraline's a bit of a drama queen, so she's probably used to that kind of thing. Maybe that's why she's not moving after she does it. :p

    Maybe that's why they didn't put it in the movie. ;)

  • I think he meant how bobinski jumped from the balcony and landed on his feet as if it was nothing , from this height XD

  • Ah, because when I clicked on the time link, that jumped me to the moment when Coraline hit the table, so that's what I thought he meant. He should have typed 1:38

    Though I think he might have been pointing out that it would be very painful to get a pair of hedge trimmers to the crotch. :O

  • lol i didn't even notice the trimmers at first.

    I just thought "ugh, poor coraline, about to get crushed by bobinsky." XDD

  • "slightly disturbing" ????

    scariest shit EVER

  • er, no.

    very far away.

  • That was just awesome!!! I have just come home from the cinema and I had to see how they did it. Absolutly fantastic that this whole thing is stop motion!

    Great film

  • Henery Selick DESEVERS AN OSCAR NOD!!!

  • I think so, too. I just hope Pixar's "Up" doesn't completely screw Coraline's chances at any Oscars. :p

    Maybe it'll get a nod for "Best Adapted Screenplay".

  • Are you kidding me? Something tells me "Up" is going to be a terrible movie. Even if it gets good reviews, Coraline will win an Oscar just because it was in stop motion or something.

  • Honestly out of everything in the movie I was mostly disturbed by Ms. Forcible in the bikini *shudder*

  • The Mouse Circus part was AMAZING when I went to see this movie!

  • yeah the part with the breasts when they're all nearly naked...disturbing...

  • "Oh my Gahd."

    At least the movie didn't pull any punches. ;)

  • Great movie, i'd never seen something like this, it was like watching a very fantastic chapter of "twilight zone" but animated.

  • The fact that this was made in stop motion kind of adds a...a realness to this, you know? Like how every part of this movie was set up, and took what could be hours to assemble, but in the end creating a beautiful ensemble of horror, mystery, and comedy. Now I wish my name was Coraline!

  • OMG i saw this movie and it was absolutely amazing! best movie ever!!

  • its a goos movie but not 4 kids

  • i went to see it with my bff and all the sudden , like fifteen little 4 year olds came in and watched the movie ! and i agree with u ! it shocked me that the adults would take them to see it !

  • its ment for kids not teenagers and adults the book is at a 4th grade reading level. im sort of wrong because its more like all ages but still .

  • that is a little to scary for 4 year olds and 3 year olds . i was even scared a little becaus it was good working 3d .

  • the only part thats like umm eww is ms spink when she half naked or ms forcible IDK.

  • so since this movie is stop motion, it kinda is a true story like it happened but as clay figures and puppets

  • I guess that's true. This is like a "live-action" movie with no actors. ;)

  • 1:40 that's not in the movie.

  • Well that disclaimer at the beginning said that some of the shots weren't final, so that scene must have hit the cutting room floor.

  • actually, yes it was i remember seeing that part....& people laughing lol

  • um, I don't remember that. I'll have to go see it again.

  • wow if i did that with Claymation i could make the coraline SEQUAL!!!! lol

  • No... no, I don't think you could.

  • oh man i wanna see this movie!!!

    I hear its a good movie!!!

  • amazing characters, amazing director, amazing production, avery thing in this movie is amazing. love it

  • It's interesting. Today there are a lot of mediums that people think are on their way out, but projects like this prove that there is still so much more that can be done. You got stop-motion and CGI, then CGI and 2D, which is even more split now between Flash and Hand-drawn, and then you got the all variations of each.

    I think it's great when all of these mediums grow up together, and not apart. No project with heart and purpose should ever be ignored because of its choice of medium!

  • well put!

  • dude..if people didnt work so hard. then this world would be crap! lol

    i mean think about it

    if people didnt work so hard on youtube. i probably wouldnt be commenting you. Its peoples job..lol

  • what you just said spoiled it a bit X_X

  • why would you spoil it? That's one of the main parts of the movie!

  • I love stop motion. It's got more feel then CGM but can give more characteristic persona's then a life action movie

  • cgi u mean?

    stop motion is tite! its like taking a doll house! haha and taking pictures of it

  • No, stop-motion's better.

  • ?okaay? lol

    thats what i said

  • now this is truly a work of art!

  • does anyone know when this movie is comming out in latinamerica?

  • where in latinamerika?

  • This movie caught my eye mths ago! ( previews ) I had to watch it. So I did last Friday 10/6th it was great. My 3 yr old didn't move out of her seat! She didn't ask to go to the reatroom or for any popcorn. That's how much she was into this movie! So for all those parent's out there, go & waych this w/ your kids. I enjoyed it myself!..lol

  • MUSHROOMS.

  • I Agree!

  • i love how there are still people out there in the film industry that still love to make movies like this.

  • Too true! :D

  • 3rd day on the scenes, well 1:49 was a bit too disturbing cause that is one scary face! i thought it was coraline in the future for a sec. LOL! im gonna watch it tomorrow! :D don't know when don't know how but i think it's gonna be a great movie! i wish it was tomorrow ):

  • Actually, go see the movie. I just got back from it and I swear, at some points it made my heart stop. It delivered big-time!

    But read the book, too. It's also quite incredible.

  • hello me say you no know how speak english no?

  • this movie is gonna be awesome, im borrowing the book from my teacher and im already at page 70-something! I am SO gonna see this movie!

  • I am 26 and I'm dying to see this

  • would a 15 year old guy want to go see this movie?

  • I'm 21 and I'm DYING to see it!

  • I'm 23 and I want to see this.

  • im also 15 and i have the same feeling.........i suggest bring a younger sibling......i want 2 C it 2

  • Good Lord, you 15 year olds need to rethink your priorities.

  • so what....my grandma die for see it xD...and me too D:

  • i have no clue wat this guy said above me.... i need to rethink my priorities? look at your obsession over a movie XD. whatever if i get made fun of by my friends well... grrrrrr

  • wait who is the kid with the brown hair? i dont remeber him

  • That's Wybie. He was invented for the movie as Coraline's neighbour, so that half the movie wouldn't be Coraline just wandering around talking to herself now and then.

  • stop motion is awesome

  • wow awesome i luv stop motion animation i want 2 go see this movie!

  • Wow...what a cat huh? PLOPS...CUTE

  • Only 5 days left till this movie comes to theatres!! I can't wait to see it at last!

  • now 2 days

  • i want to see thsi movie

  • these things take years to make,i mean the videos by the way.

  • At 1:50 keep watching till 1:55 at one fifty coraline looks so angry! and at one fifty five the poor mouse! :(

  • well he IS a cat!

  • I was watching all these previews etc. Got curious.The next day I saw someone reading the book and was like "where did you get that!" in the middle of a conversation. I read it that night, couldn't put it down C: it was creepy, but fantastic.

  • LOL, the poor cat at 0:28!

  • cool stuff

  • No. No he's not. Tim Burton also did not direct Nightmare Before Christmas. It was directed by Henry Selick, who is also directing this movie. It's time you knew the truth.

  • I love BURTON (not birton) but he's overblown , most of the genius behind his stop motions was from selick. burtons brilliant and all but stop motion is henrys bag

  • Just a couple of days ago I was wondering why they wouldn't make a movie of this already! And they finally did! I seen the trailer on tv! I went nuts! I flew out of this world!!!!! I hyperventaliated!!!!! I am so bloody-qreusomly excited!

    ~~And I never got to see City of Embers yet I feel so sad and neglectful of my other favorite book!

  • wow.....you are excited

  • YAY! I am! :D

    do you know who that guy is at 0:27?

  • Hes not from the book hes an xtra character that Selick made they thought he would be a good adition because they said quote "so she wouldnt just be a girl talking 2 herself"

  • What role does he play other than talk? How does he get trapped in that world along with her? I don't like it when they change the stories! But, now I'm curious I have to see it!

  • Do you mean Wyvie? They put him in because they wanted Coraline to actually have someone to talk to because in the story she's talking to herself a lot more often. And he also helps her out a bit. Neil completely sees why they put him in so he's all for them changing the story just a smige.

  • that happens in the book

    the cat goes with her, because he some how knows

    but neil doesnt say how...

    she figured out it was the cat from her world, because it didnt have button eyes

  • I CAN'T WAIT. THE BOOK IS AMAZING.

  • Im seeing the movie for my birthday !FEB.7th

  • ppl dont igve it away im like half way through the book!! we're reading it in school

  • I've read the book three times, and I won it in a draw when I was like in grade 7! I went bloody crazy when I got the book since I rented it from a library before!

    I'm reading it again just because I seen the preview last night! It's a bloody amazing book!

  • oMG WE ARE READING IT IN SCHOOL ALSO! :p

  • awesome!!!!!!!

  • Coraline is one of my most favorite books!! I am sooo excited!!

  • I want to see this so badly it looks awsome. I'm going to see it with my friend. some people have been saying that its not going to be like the book ( becouse they read it.) But I think its not that its not like the book its just a diffrent remdition of the story.

  • I want to see this sooo bad... but i also wanted see a really grim kind of coraline movie.. but this ones just as good

  • i wanna see this :DD

    extremmely :PP

  • lol the book is more kid friendly but i love coraline sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooo much i am dying i cant wait just come out omg omg omg neil is my hero!!!!!!!!

  • i want to see the movie so bad

  • I can't either. it comes out on my dad's birthday, and it just so happens to be three days before my 21st birthday. I don't think my girlfriend will be thrilled to see it, so it may be dificult to justify spending the money. I hope I don't have to wait till a dvd release. man, I love the book, though.

  • what kind of person doesn't like movies like this? tell her to not be so serious =p

  • Coraline is so cute.

    She was designed well in my opinion.

  • awesome movie I'm going to try and see it with my friends

  • i'm so excited about this movie :D

  • idk if i want to see it i mean the book was great but i dont think you can chang it into a movie they always miss something or add something or just skip it and idk if it is posible to make the book G.

  • Well that's why they call it an "adaptation" and not a "copy".

  • yes but all i am saying is that i would like to see a movie were i dont sit here and go "well thats not how that happend" ik that when making a movie it cost alot and times 2 on this type of movie +the fact that it is time consuming but still i cant sit in a thereter and watch something that is rong. sry if this is mean to say or rude but its true

  • You say "yes" like you know what I'm talking about, yet you're not thinking of movie in its own terms and are just going to parrot on about how "the book was better". Of course the book is going to be better; that's what came first. The movie's not going to be "wrong", it's just going to be different. It pisses me off when someone can't shut up about how they refuse to enjoy a movie because it's not a complete copy of its source material.

  • Very true. Just wondering... are you apart of the making of this film? How do you acquire all of these sneak peeks?

  • Unfortunately, I have nothing to do with this movie. Neil Gaiman and Henry Selick don't even know I exist. :p

    I got these videos by downloading them off Rotten Tomatoes.

  • Oh, so i guess your a big fan. :)

  • I certainly am. Neil Gaiman and Henry Selick are two of the greatest guys.

  • yea man i know exactly wat u meanm, i mean when u read the book what do u see in your mind? you see it happen....but dats it.....now wont u want to know how it was in someone elses mind? thats wer this movie comes in...its not to change the book but to narrate it the way he saw it in his mind

  • Well that sounds pretty silly. I feel like you're kind of nit-picking so you can twist your point into a kind of circumstantial truth by arguing about the title. Regardless of the exact name, film and literature are two very different mediums. To expect nothing to be lost in translation from one to the other is incredibly naive. And as previous stated, this film is also an *interpretation* of Coraline through another's eyes. If you want the exact same material, please read the book again.

  • "do not have time to read" and your in school? school is by far the easiest time to read. It's not a big deal, but we choose to respond. This trailer isn't a big deal to you, but you chose to respond, and so do we.

    You want your opinion to be best, that is why you argue. But I'm sorry to say not everyone agrees with your opinion, just as I bet you do not agree with mine just now.

    one big thing though, if a movie followed it word by word, the movies would be 10 hours long. Seriously.

  • Well why would you wan't to see a movie when you just read the exact same thing? If it's a bit different than the book, then just enjoy it! :)

  • hes not being rude hes being right if u dont wana see the movie thats great but please dont blame it on becouse its not gona be exactly like the book well thats the point the point is to show the book in another view either than the one u saw, why would you wana see a movie exactly how u read it? for that i rather just re-read it again and again thats how u have to think of it

  • Poor Coraline at 2:30

    a kid's safest haven is under the covers
