CORALINE FEATURETTE MAKES ME HAPPY
08.13.08This is a featurette for Coraline, based on the book by Neil Gaiman, directed by Henry Selick (Nightmare Before Christmas). It opens in February and the music will feature new songs by They Might be Giants (I highly recommend their Dunkin Donuts commercials). I don’t have much to add to this, just that I really enjoy it when nerds use their superpowers for the purpose of entertaining me. Also, is it just me or is Henry Selick beginning to look like one of his animations?
-Thanks to Michelle for the tip.

People must think I look like Neil because they’re always yelling, "Hey, there goes that Gaiman!"
I like the early morning rapid fire posts. Screw everyone else for not having to be at work at 8 Eastern.
I would have cast Mac.
They Might Be Giants is my 6 year old’s favorite group. Guns n’ Roses is my 3 year old’s. (True)
In the doughnut ad – which didn’t feature too many doughnuts -was that a turtle or a tortoise? I have trouble distinguishing between the two. The same applies to frogs and toads, but stick an elephant in front of me and i’ll tell you whether it’s African or Indian. The African ones only have one hump.
I get embarassed when you look at my tip.

I’m looking forward to John Hodgman telling me the one rule for a flat stomach. When he takes off his shirt it’s like POW 11 pack. I always thought the soft spot for dorks was their tummy. Huh, go figure.
I always tip 20%.
Wu-Yi baby!
that ad wasn’t about Donuts at all.
P.S, i’ve never had a dunkin donut.
Michelle’s tip makes Chyna’s click look like a pencil eraser.
Um, thanks?
I think Henry Selick looks more like a Henson puppet from The Dark Crystal than any of his own work.
Henry Selick hates going to family reunions, because everyone whispers behind his back about how different he looks than Tom, and how his whore of a Mother must have had an affair with the milkman.
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy.
I had an all-night blowout once. I will never beer bong eight Slimfast milkshakes again.
New up.
Someone fire the guy that says new up. Geez.
All-night blowout sounds like burrito night at Fek’s house. DAR SHO STINKS!
New Up!
I can’t decide whether Dane Cook’s all night blow-out would involve ritualistic mouth banging or seeing how many shadow puppets he can make from his top bunk.
Two grams of blow, road head and a handel of Seagrams 7 makes me happy.(true story) Get a life Mangina!
