A million years ago, I found some leaked pictures from the set of this production, and I dared to hope that it would be an awesome film.
It was one of my favourite childhood books, and I have never fallen out of love with the story, or the beautiful illustrations. It was really important to me that the movie had the right visual “feel” of the book, and the pics I found indicated that the production designers got it right.
Even the way Max’s tail moves when he runs is perfect.
I can’t wait!

Looks like fun– will be interesting to see how they build a plot up from the simple story in the book into a feature length film. They sure have caught the look! And I like Spike Jonze.

I am really excited about this as well! My son’s nursery is done up in a “Where the Wild Things Are” theme…I adore the story.
