More Coraline impressive artwork

Here's more Coraline artwork that further proves how amazing the visuals of the animated film are in relation to its whimsical, if also frightening, story. Also, I neglected to mention the film is shown in 3-D, something that's going to be happening more often in 2009. I must agree with Ebert and say the 3-D goggles dim the picture, and I barely noticed the three-dimensional effects, which leads to this question: If you don't notice it, why have it? And why create an effect that can't be reproduced at home with a DVD release? Apparently, they're working on a home-version 3-D system, but even if they come up with something that works I'm not so sure 3-D is a selling point for a film, especially compared to story and characters.
