Where the Wild Things Are is Going to Be Amazing

The teaser poster for Where the Wild Things Are got released today and it looks awesome. I've been excited about this movie for some time and have been really frustrated by the fact that the studio has been delaying it for so long. However, if you look at the bottom of this poster, you can see that it is apparently finally coming out this Fall. I just cannot wait. Since Watchmen has come and passed (again, I have my long delayed review coming soon), this is probably my most anticipated movie for the remaining year. 


For those who don't know, Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation) is directing this adaptation from a script by himself and Sam Eggers based on Maurice Sendak's classic children's book. The film has met many delays after test screenings were filled with complaints of the film being way too dark and not appropriate for children. I'm a big fan of what Jonze has done in the past and I'd love to see what he can do with this material. 

Along with this poster, a teaser trailer is rumored to be completed and may be attached to prints of Monsters vs. Aliens 3D. According to /Film, the trailer is supposed to be around 3 minutes long, is filled with beautiful cinematography and has music featured by Arcade Fire (who have been rumored to be doing music for the film along with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs). I cannot wait to see it along with the finished film in the Fall.
