Hard to comment with my speakers not working but the visuals look good. I'm usually terrified when they make movies of my favorite books, especially classics from childhood. The CG people in the Polar Express were too creepy for my taste but I doubt there would be that problem with the Wild Things.

Can't wait. Was one of my kids favorite book, especially my youngest who really was a Wild Thing!! Now he's a slug..perhaps I should write about what happened to Max after he grew up!!! LOL

Abrazos,

I love Maurice Sendak. We saw a production of the opera "Brundibar" at Yale, for which he designed the (absolutely astounding and remarkable) sets! It was magical to see his world come to life on stage that way!

Im sure Where the Wild Things Are will be delightful! Thanks for posting the trailer!

I think that it will be a great movie!
I loved to read that book to my son....

I think I had ever book he wrote back in the day...

Didn't he do Little Critter?

Pattee, I don't know if he did Little
Critter or not.

Apparently he has written and illustrated over 90 books, so that is quite possible.

Tristan, I just googled M.S. and Brundibar and saw some pics of the
opera production. Wow.
