Where The Wild Things Are…

I am completely sceptical that this movie could be even as close as good as the book, although I will reserve judgement til I’ve seen it. This trailer helps a little, making it look like a cross between “Juno,” “The Neverending Story” “The Blair Witch Project” and “The Bridge to Terabithia.”

I like this little snippet from wikipedia – “The original concept for the book featured horses instead of monsters. Sendak said he switched when he discovered that he could not draw horses.” I’m convinced that horse characters would have left the story flat and not sold over 19 millioon copies worldwide.
