Where The Wild Things Are

Most of you probably don't even know this movie exists. So today it truly is a first look and a first introduction to one heck of a movie in the works. It's an adaptation of the beloved children's book Where The Wild Things Are, but it gets even better. It's being directed by legendary video music director Spike Jonze as his third full feature (after Being John Malkovich and Adaptation) and will star Forest Whitaker, Catherine Keener, Catherine O'Hara, Paul Dano, among many others. It's worth a glance, as it may catch your eye.

The photo comes compliments of MTV, hence the tag.

Although this first image is out and it might make an appearance at Comic-Con, the film isn't set to open in theaters until October 3rd of 2008! So far so good, what do you think?

Actually, this is absolutely most definitely NOT Jonze's "first full feature". When you realize what his debut actually was, you'll be smacking your forehead pretty dang hard.

Yeah, the features he has directed have been bizarre and very innovative, especially in terms of the storytelling, so his adaptation (pun) of this great childrens book will most likely have the surreal and slightly dark tone that the story requires.

Oh damn, thanks for pointing out my goof, and you're right, I did slap my forehead! I fixed it and it's all better now. :)

I'll end up seeing this if for no other reason than the nostalgia factor, and I'd bet I won't be the only one. One of the very first books I was ever read, and a classic to boot.

I saw a working print of this movie about 2 weeks ago, it was great! Very raw feeling and not too much CG in it. Best things in the movie are the camera work and the music (not sure of the music was temp but it was good).
