Anybody looking to see this when it comes out? I remember reading the book as a kid, but never being really into it. The movie though, looks like it will be good. Spike Jonze spent 4 years making it. Hopefully it'll be good.

Saw a trailer a while back. Looks good.
I'm looking forward to it. Also read the book as a kid but can't remember much of it.
Still, with Spike Jonze involved it's gotta be worth a watch...

Yeah, I read the book as a kid so I'm pretty interested in this movie.

I didn't read the book, trailer for the film didn't look great to me but perhaps it would seem better if I knew the source material.
I'm just pleased this thread isn't about the below par Metallica song.

I used to read it to the kids when they were little, it was always a big hit and one that I could stand to read over and over again unlike many of the others (now forgotten). Ahlberg's 'Each Peach Pear Plum' was another favourite.

Ahlberg rings a bell. Is that the guy who had a serious of books like Mr Biff the Boxer and various other people with silly names that had jobs like waitresses etc. I loved them as a kid.
Wow childhood flashback!

From what I've heard Jonze showed it to the author and he approved of it. That's a good sign.hopefully its live up to what the book was like, i loved it when i was a kid still think i have it somewhere. The images in it always stuck with me bloody brilliant i say
Yep want to see this. I'm a huge Maurice Sendak fan and Wild Things is still one of my favourite books.
Glad they hired a proper director and can't think of anyone better for the material. Also happy to see them using Henson animatronics rather than CGI.

Read the book as a kid and enjoyed it although i didn't know they were making a film. Of the book the one thing I can remeber is the "royal Rumpus" which even as a kid sounded dodgy.

Early reviews for this are declaring it a 'masterpiece'.
Am I right in thinking it's not out until December here?
