Where the Wild Things Are

It's the first time I have heard about this movie which I find quite shocking as the trailer looks incredible.

I have a feeling that is going to join my list of films I’m going to want to show to my kids.




I can’t really work much out from the trailer so I looked up the plot of the book on Wikipedia:

The book is about the imaginary adventures of a young boy named Max, who is punished for making mischief by being sent to his room without supper. Max wears a distinctive wolf suit during his adventures and encounters various mythical creatures, the "wild things". Although just ten sentences long, the book is generally regarded as a classic of American illustrated children's literature.


It might be hard to base a film on such a short story, but judging by the visuals the director hasn't had a problem. I haven’t been this existed about a film since my mate showed me the trailer for Pans Labyrinth.



It looks like cross between Drop Dead Fred and Donny Darko – two of my favorite films.

I WANT TO GO AND RUN IN THE TREES AND FIELDS WITH A GIANT HAIRY MONSTER NOW, IT’S NOT FAIR, I'M STUCK IN COCKING WORK!
