"Technologically, this is a movie of many firsts; it�s the first feature-length, stop-motion film . . . shot using commercial digital SLR still photography cameras and, perhaps most significantly, it�s the first movie to choose digital cameras over film cameras based on the criterion of image quality."

Awesome! I always though this was computer animated.
It looks so smooth and clear - simply digital.
Stop Motion always earns my greatest respect.
I loved Nightmare before Christmas. Can't await the movie!

Isn't it already out? Thought it was meant for a Halloween release. Anyways I didn't know it was stop-motion either, cool stuff, maybe I'll go see it.

Yeah it's out already here in the US, although I don't know the overseas release dates. I took the family, and we all enjoyed it - entertaining film.

I too was very surprised to read aboutt he technology behind it. My first thoughts were that it was CG but modified to appear stop action; however, I wasn't surprised as much by it actually being stop action as much as I was by the technology behind it - still digital SLRs?? Wow - it makes me wonder what I can do with m own dgital SLR.
