Where the Wild Things Are

Rating: ★★★★★ 

Directed By: Spike Jonze

Starring: Max Records, Forest Whitaker, Catherine O’Hara, James Gandolfini, Chris Cooper, Catherine Keener

Plot:

An adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s story, where Max, a disobedient little boy sent to bed without his supper, creates his own world–a forest inhabited by ferocious wild creatures that crown Max as their ruler. [IMDB]

Pre-Review Editorial:

I read an actual review of Spike Jonze’s Where the Wild Things Are that stated the following:

Authentic though it may be, this movie will appeal to douchey hipsters. If you are upper-middle-class, liked I Heart Huckabees, have Buddy Holly glasses, listen to rap ironically, and/or believe yourself to be an undiscovered genius or otherwise tortured and unique person, this is right in your wheelhouse for Movie of the Year. [Film School Rejects]

Now, let me put on my horn rimmed glasses and get on with my douchy hipster review of Where the Wild Things Are.

Spike Jonze’s film version of Where the Wild Things Are has been in my sights for some time.  I loved the book as a kid and am loving the visuals I’ve been seeing.  Finally, official marketing is kicking into gear.  In 2 weeks we’ll see a trailer, but until then we have the official poster to tide us over!

The combination of actual costumes enhanced with CGI sounds like a brilliant move and from the photos and now the poster I can’t wait for this.

See more photos after the jump.  Read more at Slashfilm.

UPDATE: more pictures added. More info/plot revealed by USA Today.
