Do you think the movie's too 'childish' for my 15 year old son? <br /><br />Popinfresh ~ thanks, you gotta read one of his books or listen to it on audio. Neil Gaiman narrates these himself and he's got a voice like warm honey.<br /><br />Toni ~ thanks muchly, hope you enjoy it too!<br /><br />Celia.a ~ totally with you on the Neil Gaiman love, the man ROCKS!!<br /><br />Laughing Stars ~ How old's your daughter, I'm trying to convince my son to go with me.Teddyreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553244883194436385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6416388930682401137.post-67312818938344099622009-08-29T09:11:53.632+10:002009-08-29T09:11:53.632+10:00Nikola ~ I think Neil Gaiman is right in that adul...Nikola ~ I think Neil Gaiman is right in that adults find this one scarier kids, it was definitely creepy but I'm a horror reader so I guess I have a high tolerance lol<br /><br />Hilda ~ thanks for visiting<br /><br />Petty Witter ~ thanks for mentioning you came from J.Kaye's blog, I can send her a cyber hug!<br />If you can't get Coraline try for The Graveyard Book<br /><br />Viv ~ Neil Gaiman sure has a wild imagination doesn't he?

I saw Terri Hatcher promoting it after Desperate Housewives and that reminded me I had the book.<br /><br />Amanda ~ I can't wait to see the movie. Do you think it's too 'childish' for my 15 year old son? I don't know anyone who's seen it yet.<br /><br />Jenny Girl ~ it was creepy but I thought maybe I didnt find it scary because I read a lot of horror but I don't know.
