Puppets seem like vampires sometimes. They live, and you're depleted.
Unless you have kids, you actually have no idea what kids are watching on TV these days.
We are suffering from a glut of too many 3-D movies and not enough screens.
People spend the money where the money is. Nightmare never goes away. 
There's always kids who become stop motion animators. I get stuff all the time. They put it on YouTube. It's exciting to see. 
Making 'Coraline' was one of the great filmmaking experiences of my life. 
It's nice to be taken seriously. 
Just like those little Viewmaster slides, there's a inherent magic that's captured in 3D that you can't get in drawn animation or in CG. 
People are very harsh critics of animated humans. 
Kids love to be scared - there's way to do it right, and ways to do it wrong. 
Underneath this tired, middle-aged exterior, I'm an 11 year old kid. 
People are always telling me that boys won't go to girls' movies and vice versa. It's not true. 
Very few people have made the transition from animation to live-action; I'm certainly not one. 
Stop-motion is sort of twitchy; you can feel the life in it. If we were to remove that completely, there'd be no point in it.
