Where the Wild Things Are
 

Anyone as excited (well... hopefully optimistic) about this movie as i am!?

I know i always loved this book as a child, in fact i still love it!
At first i thought it wouldn't translate over well into a movie but after seeing the trailer I'm getting more excited over it!

Comments, ideas, general word's about the topic?

Really looking forward to it! I don't completely remember everything about the story, but the trailer did refresh some memory's, I think I may even go out and get the book again as it's been re-released here in the Uk, but it does look as if they've done a great job making the movie version! Just glad they've waited until now, imagine what a version of it 10 or 15 years ago would have been like, terrible I'd think with really bad costumes etc!

yeah - VERY excited about this - just a really great great book and i think spike jonze is the right choice for director. i thought the trailer looked really cool and i like the way they've done the monsters - sort of unreal and it looks like they are pretty close to the original artwork.

plus they used the arcade fire for one of the trailers. hurrah! :)

I'm excited about this. I'm a huge fan of Maurice Sendak, I even wrote my dissertation on Wild Things and some of his other books so I'm going to be hard to please! But I love Spike Jonze so I trust him to do good things with this. :)
