Where The Wild Things Are
Neskah:
It'll wind up being almost nothing like the book we all know and love, Anymore then the chipmunks really represented my childhood favourite... and to this day I still can't sit through the Garfield movie...
But I think I'll still go and see this, be cause the book really was just soo special to me.

If I remember rightly the plot of the story was - kid gets sent to his room plays around in his monster costume for a while then finds a way out of his room to the beach where he gets in a boat and travels to the land of the wild things - he becomes their king. They sing, they dance, they play games, kid sails home - it was all a dream. I'm really not seeing how they're going to get a movie length plot out of this. Though from what I remember the monsters and the kid's costume all look pretty acurate so I'll probably see this.
KvP:
I'm wondering how much of this film is Jonze's. If it was all his it would've been released a year ago. There have been all sorts of stories of the original cut being too frightening for kids and reshoots and blah blah blah.
Which doesn't mean it'll be a bad film, but on general principle I'm against studios fucking with a vision. It's why the Weinsteins suck.
imapiratearg:
I can't ever remember reading much of this book as a child, I wish I had read it more than once, but this movie looks great. Bonus points for an Arcade Fire song in the trailer.
michaelicious:
You know what other movie had an Arcade Fire song in the trailer? The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Make of that what you will.
That said, I am looking forward to seeing this. I will keep try by best to keep my expectations low, though.
