I've been following this movie for a while, Gaiman and Jim Henson collide.

It is due to be released on Region 2 DVD on June 6th. Anyone here seen it or got an opinion on it?
Mine is that it looks beautiful..should be a good trip.

Great movie. The visuals are amazing. A bit of the storyline is just too coincidental, but it's also a children's movie so I guess it's expected. It's definitely worth buying, though.

I'll be getting it.

Massive fan off Mckean, the movie got some bad reviews i think i'll wait for the dvd. His album art has brought a lot to the records it was used on i feel, almost perfect. Fla-implode for example.

I must use this oppertunity to expose the dave mckean endorsed swedish five piece electronc act INTERLACE though, they are very very underrated. I loved their last album.

I second the fact that the visuals are indeed amazing.

yeah sorry, i'm bound by the laws of the bowler hat.

I just watched this amazing piece of film today. I was absolutely blown away. Not only were the visuals first rate, but the thematic elements were interesting, and the music was fun. The lullaby scene sent chills up my spine.

Seriously the best movie I've seen in quite a while.

Oh yeah: Stephanie Leonidas is extremely beautiful.

Really? I thought she and that other dude (I forget his name at the moment) were pretty good characters, essentially the only two main characters in the story. I think the only place it faltered was the story, which was a little too convenient sometimes, but not so bad if you look at the movie as the children's movie it is.
