Coraline: Author excited about next year's 3D movie

Neil Gaiman, author of the fantasy novel Coraline is extremely happy with how the 3D movie is progressing. Gaiman told SCI-FI Wire that as the movie is being previewed for audiences - they were going "absolutely nuts". Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher and Keith David lend voices to the Stop Action 3D pic that focuses on a girl who discovers a way to get into an alternative universe.

It's "the best stop-motion thing I've ever seen..." The author also heaped praise on the director saying Henry Selick is "doing something that is going to be revolutionary with Coraline.”

Focus Features is distributing the 3D film for the holiday season next year.

This one should be a fun trip!
