When he slit off the buttons and the mouth of the doll, I had distinct shivers up my spine. Now I don't even want to sleep because I know I'll have nightmares about buttons.
i have koumpounophobia lol like i dont crae about ppl wearing them or seeing them i just cant wear something with buttons or touch them lol this man is creepy tho
@iDragongirlet Same here and if I touch a button I have to wash my hands multiple times and I feel nauseated for the rest of the day. I also can't let anyone wearing buttons hug me. That would not end well.
Koumpounophobia is a real word. In greek "koumpi" (κουμπί) means button, and "phobia" (φόβος) means fear.
I didn't know that there were people who were scared of buttons... but to be honest if I had watched "Coraline" when I was about 5, I know I would be scared for a long time...
Anyway, I love Coraline, and I'm gonna read the book as well! :) x
@Mikayla13able Gaiman's not trying to make fun out of you. On the contrary, he wants other people to share your fear. You do realize that he's talking ironically, don't you?
I love this man so much. He's one of my role models. Not because of the button thing, I mean, because he's written so many stories in so many different formats, and that's cool. ^^" Button thing is pretty awesome, though.
@Mikayla13able I don´t see it that way. He wasn´t trying to make fun of koumpounophobic people, he was just saying that it is not very common (which is true)
Besides, the whole point of this video was for a promotion of Coraline, so he just wanted to make a little joke saying, "this movie will make you have a very good reason to fear buttons" :)
@Mikayla13able I know what you mean :p If some people are wearing buttons I can't stand looking at them >.< And if I go into a store with buttons I don't want to go near them cus'.. they are disgusting and smell xD
me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like me no like ------ I'm the eleventh person to dislike this. I will never, ever see Coraline too! It's NOT irrational, it's who I am. I'm not changing for anyone(the exception of sexy girls), specially not for someone who calls it irrational. nuff said.
@Irrashaimase1 Do you want a medal or something? We don't care if you dislike this video or not or whether you are going to see the movie or not. You are just missing out. Also, your grammar and punctuation is atrocious.
@Miistification Trolololol you're telling me I have bad punctuation and grammar when I put something like 20 'me no like', no shit there Sherlock. And I really don't think I am missing out on anything, whoever talks about how great Coroline is? OF COURSE I WANT A MEDAL!!! who wouldn't want a medal? that's like not wanting candy. Plus I have every right to push dislike, I'm obviously affected by Koumpounophobia. Trololo away and I shall show you my ass (__!__)
@Irrashaimase1 Wow, seriously? What are you, six? Nice all caps by the way, do they make you feel more important? Also, the reason why I'm calling you out is because I can't stand people like you. They say they dislike something even though they have never tried/read/watched it or have given it a chance. Now, don't get me wrong, you can dislike something if you don't like it, but at least watch something before you judge it. P.S. U mad bro?
@Miistification Funny how you judge me on my age when the movie we are discussing was primarily aimed for children. What are you old and bitter? A pedobear, ew! And I know I don't like the movie because of the obvious phobia that's in question. Seriously, google it and read people's story of how bad it can be BEFORE you judge me. Also, EVERYONE says they hate something before they tried it. Murder, butt-sex, fighting a war, so don't be a hypocrite. Come at me BRO! CAPS INCLUDED.
@Irrashaimase1 The movie was actually aimed at teens. The age group ranged from 12 to whatever. I believe you can like something no matter what age you are. You must lead a boring life if what dictates what you can and can't like simply by age. And the movie wasn't about Koumpounophobia at all. And whoever said I was old and bitter? I'm 16, dickface. You just seem to be throwing around insults such as 'pedobear' in a half assed attempt to troll. Look at who's reacting. You seem to be.
@Miistification The movie wasn't aimed for teens. If it was it would been rated PG-13. It's PG. If it really was ranged from '12 to whatever' that would be PG-13. But yes you can go see it if you like. I never said you had to be a age. The movie wasn't about Koumpounophobia, never said it was. Don't know where you got that from. But, it does affect people with Koumpounophobia, obviously. You have insulted me more than I have to you. You don't make much sense boy. You're way more of a troll.
I can't help but say that while he is a great writer (not going to say something like he's the greatest, he's a genius, or anything like that as it's all up to one's opinion) he is definitely creepy. I still can't figure out how one can think buttons for eyes on dolls are cute, that just looks scary, the movie and book of Coraline draw my case in point.
oh my gosh that was awesome. I hate how everyone thinks that Tim Burton directed the nightmare before Christmas and coraline. It was actually Henry Selick. Tim Burton just wrote the poem for NBC and produced the two movies. Tim Burton is an amazing guy and my role model but I thought I should just point that out. Also I think it would be kind of hard to direct puppets:)
@TheLeaf56 I think people think Tim Burton directed Nightmare Before Christmas because his name is on it, now how they think he directed Coraline I have know clue.
That is wonderful. Honestly I like Coraline a lot but has anyone ever read his comic books? Sandman is a GORGEOUS comic series he did with DC and it's full of poetry and eerily beautiful imagery.
CREEEPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 His smile at the end is almost terrifying. I'm not a big fan of his writing, but he did a good job preforming here, and the book Coraline was pretty good--not really scary, though....
A while after seeing Coraline, they started showing commercials for these dolls with button eyes called Lala-loopsy dolls. I couldn't help thinking that this was a grave error in marketing on their part.
I don't care IF he's trying to give me an irrational feat of buttons, I am in love with this man. His voice is both haunting and alluring. Just love him!!!!
They're buttons, there's nothing sinister about them, there's nothing wrong or bad or evil or harmful or immoral that can be done with them that can't be done with something else.
They're harmless.
Maybe if I keep telling myself that I'll believe it.
I know someone without kompouphobia who still dosent use buttons, Todd Mcfarlane. Gaiman gave him lawsuit phobia, so If he uses buttons, gaiman ill sue his ass
1:26 .....I'm scared of dolls.....no, seriously, I'm slightly pedophobic. I can't stand certain ones like porcelain dolls. Dunno about button eyed dolls though...haven't seen one :P
Before this video I hadn't the slightest fear, not even after watching Coraline for the 100th time! No no... what gave me the fear of buttons? This, 1:42 to 1:53. Thank you Neil Gaiman, not only for being one of the best author's who put their pen to paper and created a master piece, but for giving me koumpounophobia.
I feel very sorry for those people who have koumpounophobia and watched this movie or just this video. Although I'll admit, he scared the bejeezus out of me when I watched this the first time around.
One time, I was reading Coraline at home. I finished the book and began to shiver, because before I was too distracted to realize I was cold. As I was putting on a sweater, I felt something in the pocket. I reached in and pulled out...a pair of buttons.
@grezledragon O_O Okay, this is creepier. I was playing my gameboy, then we went to the library and i checked out Coraline. I read it, note, all of the pages had nothing in them. Then, I finished, a key fell out. then i looked to my right. I saw a door I had NEVER seen before. Then i threw the key in my toilet, and flushed.
@Windwakerzelda99 WOW! Good thing you threw the key in the toilet and flushed it or else maybe you would have had (::) (::) on your eyes sewed by the Beldam!
@LoveJaydaNoworLater really?,well before the movie existed I had weird dreams about these button-eyed people,and I still have them,but am afraid that maybe they are not dreams,so yes I probably have it too
Well I was planning to sleep earlier than I usually did tonight. Until I got to 1:49.
Now I wonder if I'll sleep at all.

Interesting.
One time, I was reading Coraline at home. I finished the book and began to shiver, because before I was too distracted to realize I was cold. As I was putting on a sweater, I felt something in the pocket. I reached in and pulled out...a pair of buttons.

@grezledragon O_O Okay, this is creepier. I was playing my gameboy, then we went to the library and i checked out Coraline. I read it, note, all of the pages had nothing in them. Then, I finished, a key fell out. then i looked to my right. I saw a door I had NEVER seen before. Then i threw the key in my toilet, and flushed.
Im smart i iz.

Neil Gaiman is sooo awesome. I've always knew that he's a great author but after watching this video I like him even more.
