The Other Green

DaGoddess @ 01:00

I have Coraline's eyesI’m an so jealous I wasn’t chosen to receive one of the handmade boxes for Coraline.

I’m green with envy. Practically rotting from the inside out.

Once upon a time, the ex and I went to see Nightmare Before Christmas and we both declared it perfect. Jack and his friends eventually made their way into Christmas stockings and such. LD is now a fan, too. I think he’s a fan for two reasons: 1) he loves things a little “off” (like his mama), and 2) he’s a wiz at stop-motion animation (last year’s Lego Star Wars production with his friend Charlie was a hit at school).

Coraline is sure to be just as wonderful and creepy. At least, I hope so. From the teeny tiny knitted sweaters and gloves, to the magical gardens, and the blog, oh yes. I’m hooked.

  3. Well, to be honest, let’s face it: the blogs they mention are part of the Coraline web. Likely set up for people involved in the production of the movie.

    Still, it’s nice to imagine that we lowly real bloggers might have been a part of the promotional machine. That would have been so cool.

  4. Vanessa and I love Jack and crew. The artwork is so incredible!

    How are you doing? I hope all is well. Will read more of your blog and see what’s new.

  5. Miachelle, oh my dear, how I’ve missed you! So glad to see you around these parts again. How are you? How’s the jewelry biz?

    As for Jack and the crew, that was one of those movies that made us believe in magic all over again. It’s a stunning piece of work. Let’s hope Coraline lives up to the same standard of excellence.

  7. She’s really you, just with dark hair and a tad younger. So, in other words, she’s like Toots, but with dark hair and a tad older.

    It think the movie’s gonna rock!
