Laika websites

 Check this out! For the movies Laika makes they also make a website. Like for Coraline they made a really cool website. It has games, little videos, and you can explore the Pink Palace. Type in the search bar Coraline.com. You'll really enjoy it. For ParaNorman, the website isn't so exciting as Coraline's website but it's still pretty cool. I think it might develop into something really awesome. You can watch the trailer and go to this weird place on the website called Instagram. To go to this website type in the search bar ParaNorman.com. Have fun!

Stop-Motion films

 There's a lot of pretty cool stop-motion films on Youtube. The films all have different directors and companies and stuff. There's one stop-motion film creator named Noika. You should check out some of their films. Here's a link to one of their videos.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD7eagLl5c4&feature=relmfu

The time it took to make Coraline

 Guess how long it took to make Coraline. Did you guess? It took 18 months! To you it might be a short period of time but to me that's really long. It takes 3-6 months for preparation, 2-4 months on filming, and 6-8 months for editing a regular movie. That means it probably takes about 14 months to create a regular movie. Maybe even shorter. To make a clay mation character in Coraline it took 10 people to make 1 and that took 3-4 months. So Coraline is even longer than it seems.

Thanksgiving

 I won't be able to post anymore post for a couple of days. Happy Thanksgiving!

The Cast of ParaNorman

 There's a lot of cool famous people in the movie ParaNorman. Like one is Anna Kendrick from The Twilight saga movies. And another is Tucker Albrizzi from the Disney channel show Good Luck Charlie and Jeff Garlin from the movie Daddy's Day Care. There's a lot more really cool actors. If you want to see them here's the link to the website: http://www.movieweb.com/movie/paranorman/cast-crew. Have fun. : D

Laika

 Isn't Laika amazing? They make movies, commercials, and short films. Their commercials are really cool. You probably wouldn't think they made the m&m commercials. But they did! They also made a Honda commercial,  a Dole commercial, a Starbucks commercial, a Planters Peanuts commercial, a Willy Wonka Laffy Taffy commercial, and so much different commercials! Isn't that weird? I think you know the movies they made. The best movie ever is Coraline! Also coming out is ParaNorman and they made that movie too. I can already tell it's gonna be a super great movie. I think Laika is gonna make another movie in 2014. I don't really know. Laika also made a short film called Moongirl. It's really cool but really weird at the same time.

My thoughts about ParaNorman

 WOW! I'm so excited about the new movie from Laika called ParaNorman! I watch all movies made by Laika and Coraline is definitely the best movie ever. But with ParaNorman coming out on August 2012, I don't know which ones gonna be better. I bet they're gonna be equally the same, because any movies that Laika makes are the best movies ever!
