    Yay, one of my childhood stories. Can't wait to see it.
    I saw a little clip of this too but I'm not sure its real.. athough it did look pretty professional. The clip looked spot on, seems dark and poetic which is exactly how this movie should be.

    I am a huge Fan of Paul Dano. He was amazing in There will be Blood, and Littlemiss Sunshine. He has three other films in production right now. this should be better than horton.

    Both were he plays the lead - The much anticipated, Explicit Ills, Gigantic and The Good Heart.

    In the classic film version of Where the Wild Things Are An adaptation of Maurice Sendak's classic children's story, where Max, a mischievous little boy, creates his own world.

    Paul is cast as Alex, in this is a mix of live action and animation.

    I saw a brief clip of some of the art work, and I feel this will be a major winner at the top of 09.

    I will post more info as i get it.

    I will want to see this movie.
    It looks so amazing.But I hate how they're trying to make it even more cute and fluffy and less menacing.
    I honestly want the suit Max wears.
    It looks so mischevious yet innocent.

    The fact that they are making this movie is of tremendous importance to me. I have planned for roughly half my life to make this movie, so if they screw it up I might die, or I might be relieved because I can make a remake. Alternatively if it is awesome I might be like "sweet!" or I might be like "crap!" because then I can't remake it. My life is wrought with dilemmas.

    I don't want to watch it because of the book, which in all honesty I don't much care for... but look at the cast! Lauren Ambrose, Catherine Keener, Paul Dano and Catherine O'Hara... and Spike Jonze directing. Show me where to queue.

    If this is anything like the book it should be something i would love to take my son too. I have always been a fan of the book and it looks like a good cast so we shall see.

    This sounds like it's going to be a cute fantasy. Never read the books though so I have no idea what it'll be like. We shall see..

    I wanted to create movie version of this, but since Spike Jonze is doing it, I would much rather just watch it.
