Well it's been in pre-production for a while now. This means if they cannot find a studio to pick it up, it won't be made.

It is fantastic. In my top 2 favorites of all time!

The books are super funny, I think the movie will be pretty good.
I'm just outside of chicago. How funny, I've never heard of it. That'd be great to see. I saw the movie yesterday. There was an unbearably rowdy group of girls in Cloudy/Meatballs so we ended up in Whip it. It's was good. I think the book would be even better.

Really??? OMG that's amazing. I know that it's a famous story in Japan and there have been many different stories written so I was suprised something hasn't been made yet. Excellent!
I don't see anything new on IMDB under "Into the Wild" or "Warriors".
Into the Wild
Now that I see the cover I do remember seeing them around. It sounds amazing! I'm putting it on my list.
Who is the author? I've never heard it of!

Isn't it amazing! I wept!
The illustrations in the book were amazing! They could scare the crap out of most adults. I was a little discouraged that the film wasn't going to be a classic animation movie (how sick would that have been?!) But the 3D animation didn't let me down.

Def! I forgot about that part. I wish they would have left it.

I still thought it was scary though, enough so that kids will lose some sleep ;]

Exactly!

Ahhh I gotchya. Yea, most people don't realize how many films are based upon books.
silverstream wrote: "no, there was not a wybie in the book coraline."
Wow! I didn't think so. He fit into the story beautifully.
silverstream wrote: "i think i am just going to see the 2end half of deathly hallows, unless its rated R. i just could not stand to see georges ear decapataited! or hedwing die."
I doubt any of those things would make it rated R.

How so?
