Day 1 purchase for sure.
I support the Studios like Universal Studios, and DreamWorks.
At least they still supporting 3D Blu-ray release in US.

Glad you liked it.

I'd consider the 3D on par with Paranorman's 3D, agree, disagree?

Agreed. Boxtrolls has mild 3d like Paranorman had. It still adds to the experience though.

Thanks Jay. The animation and character design are really well done.

Really? Because the trailer that I saw a few time it looked to have so/so 3D.

From seeing it in cinema, there were a few moments that stood out, but for the most part, it was one of those where you stop noticing after a while. Possibly because you get absorbed in the story, it can be hard to say.

I'll have to reassess it when I get the disc, I find it easier to judge these things at home.

They use a unique system on these films with one camera shifting position to photograph both eye frames. On Coraline they deliberately kept the depth low so they could crank it up for effect in the otherworld. They also did stuff like building sets with forced perspective foreshortening for scenes they intended to be shallow.

Was going to blind buy this... but $27.99 for week 1? Yikes!

Worth it... or wait? I did like Paranorman and Coraline, so tough call.

I need to reassess the 3d again at home too and you bring up a lot of good points. I never realized how in depth they went into designing the 3d for coraline and I think that's awesome!
