i didnt even know this was in the works, but holy shit that video got me all kinds of jazzed up! i have the best memories ever of reading this book with my grandpa, and seeing it visually presented like that awoke all of them!

Just saw the trailer myself. Lookin forward to it! It really looked like they captured the look and feel of the book.

TWilson · Mar 2009

Looks fantastic

I love rabbit suits too

Ferg · Mar 2009

very excite

aesir · Mar 2009

really? Doesnt seem like the book at all. Not all things are meant for movie form...

It also seems like they decided all those awesome colors from the book wouldn't fit, and decided to make everything brown.

gavku · Mar 2009

Awww, I remember this book. I always saw the wild things as being a bit more scary looking though, almost frightening. Either way I'm looking forward to seeing it. Good stuff!

monstro · Mar 2009

awesome, just caught the trailer. i am excited. i think this is one of those movies that could have gone horribly wrong, but from what i can tell is looking pretty decent.

...nostalgia like whoa

Seaseme · Mar 2009

Easily my favorite book when I was growing up, even now I have a copy of it that follows me around when I move. Can't wait to see what they do with this movie, but I'm not exactly holding my breath.

Firebert · Mar 2009

hell fucking yes! breakin' out the Arcade Fire too! should be another good one from jonzie!

Tumerboy · Mar 2009

oooh, I had my eye on this for a while. :::claps:::

super_villain · Mar 2009

Awesome. Might actually have the go back and skim the book, can't remember much about it but the monsters.

JohnnyRaptor · Mar 2009

another childhood memory ruined..

Tumerboy · Mar 2009

dude, it's Spike Jones! That alone should give you hope!

Justin Meisse · Mar 2009

+ Jim Henson's Creature Shop

Looks awesome! Arcade Fire is such a fitting choice for the trailer as well.

I second that like fifty times the national deficit. The music and imagery, use of the fonts and colors, staying true to the character designs and giving them a wide range of emotion, it all made me watch the preview over and over and over again.

I am really excited about this one - I did the main wildthings textures - his eyes and face. Will be the first film I worked on that I can point to and say 'that was me!' Sooo happy it finally is getting released.

Mark Dygert · Apr 2009

Finally something from my childhood that isn't being ruined.

That is pretty awesome Daveness, nice work too (as usual)!

Parnell · Apr 2009

Ya i gotta say I was excited to see what looks like a lot of REAL people in suits and not so much giant stupid Jar Jar Binks like characters running around. My favorite book growing up as a kid.
I'll definitely be looking forward to it.

SHEPEIRO · Apr 2009

must be proud to work on that one looks like it could be absolutly ace

o2car · Apr 2009

I wonder how the transition between his boys room and the wild land will turn out.

Delaney King · Apr 2009

Yeah, it was totally sweet.
I loved Jim Henson workshop since I was a kid, so it was a real dream getting ultra high res images of every inch of the wildthing suits as they where being fabricated to work from. Those guys just rock, rock, rock.

Well I am zipping my mouth about the rest till the film is out.
