A high-definition stop-motion animated feature – the first to be originally filmed in 3-D – with spectacular CG effects, based on Neil Gaiman’s international best-selling book. A young girl (Dakota Fanning) walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life – only much better. But when this wondrously off-kilter, fantastical adventure turns dangerous, and her counterfeit parents (including Other Mother [Teri Hatcher]) try to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness, determination, and bravery to get back home – and save her family.

January 13, 2009: Henry Selick's next?:
I'm more than a little excited to see CORALINE in 3-D when it hits theaters next month and I don't think I'm the only one here who'd say that (have you seen JoBlo's NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS collection ?). Our own Eric Walkuski got to sit down and talk to...

December 16, 2008: EXCL: Coraline card!:
I was lucky enough to see the CORALINE trailer in 3-D and while the trailer looks cool when you see it online, it looks downright amazing in 3-D. I think I'd be excited for any film from the director of NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS (Henry Selick) that was...
November 20, 2008: Coraline trailer:
I think it's pretty fair to say that we here, especially our namesake JoBlo himself, are big fans of NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. So a new stop-motion feature, CORALINE , from director Henry Selick naturally has our interest piqued. Add to that it's based...
November 13, 2008: Coraline sneak peek!:
A couple of nights ago, I was one of a lucky few people to get an early look at Henry Selick's new stop-motion - and 3-D! - feature, CORALINE , based on Neil Gaiman's book of the same name. We were only shown about 30 minutes worth of footage - certainly...
