Boxtrolls

[Brazoo]

I don't know if any of you have seen these trailers for "Boxtrolls" - I only just came across them now. They're so stunning that I had to share them.

This is a new movie by the guys who did "Coraline" (2009), and "ParaNorman" (2012).

We saw a trailer for this in front of "The Lego Movie". Looks kind of interesting.

Wow, that was really cool. I keep seeing big parts of Coraline but have yet to see it straight through. I've enjoyed the parts I've seen. Would love to see BoxTrolls.

It LOOKS really good but the story line isn't grabbing me. The visuals are stunning.

I'll be there.

I believe I've posted this before - it's a short doc about the woman who knits the miniature clothes for the characters in these films.

It's truly MIND BOGGLING:

I hate knitting and it is hard and tedious enough to do something full size. I can't even begin to imagine doing something so small. You drop a stitch and the stupid thing is ruined. Then you are like swearing at the thing and tearing apart weeks worth of effort.

I've always liked Cee Lo even when he was narles Barkley but this cover just made me like him even more now.
Kids are pumped about box trolls so I'll be taking them for sure.

Coralline was seriously twisted and ParaNorman was really good. Box Trolls looks really promising. I'll listen to Cee Lo sing anything.

If you haven't gotten out to see the Box Trolls, go out and do it before it leaves the theaters. Very enjoyable, awesome stop-mo animation, and the Eric Idle song in the credits is fantastic. several thumbs up out of several thumbs from my family.

[Confessional]

Yup, just damn great stuff if you dig the artform. So much to see/watch and worth seeing again.

Definitely stay for the credits; the behind-the-scenes philosophical bit is brilliant.

Funny this thread was revived as I was watching Maleficent last night and loved the Faerie land which spurred me to look up Brian Froud' beautiful work and I see his son worked on Boxtrolls, so that was very cool.

nice to know they still will do Stop motion and it's not all computers these days.
