New ParaNorman... Newspaper?

Meet Laika's stop-motion townThis is, of course, an oddity. But for your viewing pleasure is really a sneak look in the world you will be entering if you notice ParaNorman, on September 14 the coming year. It's, well, an urban area e-newsletter for that small community of Blithe Hollow, the place to find youthful Norman (Kodi Smit-McPhee) and the unusual capability to see dead people.Click image to download PDF (8Mb)The film looks to possess a Burton-esque combination of weirdness and charm about this, as outcast youthful Norman becomes the town's hope once the dead rise and walk our planet (as you can tell below, there is a witch's curse involved). JohnGoodman voices Norman's crazy uncle Mr Prenderghast, withAnna Kendrick as his cheerleader sister.You will find reviews from both figures here, in addition to a report including Witchy Weiners which amused us a great deal. ParaNorman is directed by SamFell and Chris Butler, as well as involves ghouls, ghosts, zombies and deeply stupid grown-ups.
