Sidetracking but since you mentioned it, I really liked Coraline. I keep threatening to sew buttons for eyes onto my wife's two cats.

I love Coraline too.

I usually don't recommend A Nightmare Before Christmas to people. It is a little odd. But now that it is in Blu Ray it is one of the most gorgeous I have seen.

I watched Hugo with my kids (6 and 8) today. We all liked it a lot. Some people seem to have locked their inner children away...

Watched this movie last night on Blu-ray and was disappointed. Just a lot of mental masturbation. They took so much time to setup the story and then rushed the back stories and ending. I was able to buy into the kids story somewhat but Kingsley's character needed more substance to it. The story wasn't all that compelling or "sad" as they built it up to be, especially coming from the fallout of the war. When it was over, I said to myself "so what was the fuss all about with this movie?"
