Like many things modern, everything is going digital these days.

Even one of my favourite stories. Scheduled for a February 2009 release, Neil Gaiman's Coraline is a stop-motion which is co-directed by Henry Selick and Mike Cachuela.

On the surface, this other world eerily mimics her own life—though much more fantastical. In it, Coraline encounters such off-kilter inhabitants as the morbidly funny Miss Forcible and Miss Spink, and a counterfeit mother and father — who attempts to keep her. Ultimately, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness, determination, and bravery to get back home.
