Oh how I want to see this. It doesn't come out until 2009 though.
It's all stop motion, and shot stereoscopically, which means it has a dual digital camera rig so there can be showings in 3D. This is another thing that's slipped through my fingers, since I remember Gareth Richards from Mackinnon and Saunders telling me that they were going to work on a movie based on the book. I didn't have enough experience anyway.:P
