Notes:
(1) "There was something irritatingly self-centred about the cat ... As if it were, in its opinion, the only thing in any world or place that could possibly be of any importance."
- Such a thing could be said of cats generally.
(2) In the audiobook, the music is performed by indie band The Gothic Archies. In the film, it's Hungarian choir music.
- Either way strange.

Notes:
(1) '"It's Coraline. Not Caroline. Coraline," said Coraline.'
- Luckily for me, my slightly-off spelling of a common name doesn't require pronunciation correction.
(2) The first notable change from the book to the film is that it's set in America. Oregon's a fine enough choice since its climate is similar to rainy old England, so rain as a plot device stays the same.

Notes:
(1) By my own GR experience, this is the most popular Gaiman novel. It's also one of his shortest. So, unfortunately, this reread will be finished quicker than usual.
(2) Remember when IMAX was a thing? You can always tell when a film was made for IMAX because the aspect ratio's perfectly sized to a computer monitor. Under conventional circumstances, it'd be thinner.

I actually answered that question earlier. But I guess since you can't understand the language, I can't blame you for not noticing. The answer is: I don't give personal information to people I just met on the internet. Just how it is, unfortunately. 🤷♂�
Jayson…why don't you block this dude? He's very impolite and spamming your update..


Well, I didn't answer it for him either.
Hindi ko rin sinagot ang tanong niya.

Trust me, I'm very close to doing so. It's just that I like to give people the chance to correct their behavior once it's pointed out to them. I try to be a nice guy... or as nice as I can be.

Yes, it is.

It is my real name.

if you want."
Well, if you feel like you need to go, I'm not going to stop you :)

I accept your apology. You may go in peace :)
I'm psychic... also you wrote it in you bio. smh
