Hey, everyone. “Moriarty” here.
So... have you heard that Spike Jonze is making a film out of Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s book WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE?
If you forgot, you’re not to blame. The film was originally announced a few years ago, and then set for an October ’08 release, and then... well... that didn’t happen. And it didn’t happen for a variety of reasons, which all basically boil down to “it wasn’t ready.”

Looking forward to Spike Jonze's filmed adaptation of Maurice Sendak's WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE? Worried about the reports of "disastrous" test screenings and rumors of massive reshoots? Curious as to how a film once scheduled for release on October 3, 2008 might still be a full year away from finished?

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
That’s the question right now.
We have a very impassioned letter that showed up in the Geek Headquarters mailbox recently that seems like the perfect companion piece for the announcement (which I'd link you to, except Variety.com is a shitshow that rarely works right) that Warner will release the film in October of 2009.

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
So it looks like Warner Bros. has spent most of the weekend chasing a leaked clip from WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE around the internet.
It started its viral life over at Buzznet, and since then it’s been popping up all over the place. And along with the clip, there’s been a lot of speculation about what it is and where it fits into the movie. People are wondering if it’s test footage or an actual clip or what.

Hey folks, Harry here... Today - Moriarty attempted to get into this screening... we'll see if he was able to pull it off - however, whether he did or not - these two spies did. We've known about this screening for a while now - and this isn't a case of a nearly finished film that's sitting in a can awaiting release next Holiday season because of this season being overcrowded. No, this is a film at its most exposed, raw and vulnerable state. The way Spike shot this film was with puppeted suits with... TO BE CG'd heads.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I've always liked Lauren Ambrose. I don't know where that started... probably CAN'T HARDLY WAIT. At any rate, she's turned in some really good work lately, especially in an indie flick called STARTING OUT IN THE EVENING, opposite Frank Langella.

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
Okay... I know I’ve been fairly upbeat about most of the films I’ve posted stories about today. Sue me... I’m optimistic until I have a reason not to be. But in the case of the upcoming Spike Jonze film version of WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE, I am absolutely out-of-my-mind rabid to see the movie, and I would kill Harry and wear his skin like a Tauntaun if I thought it would get me one day closer to seeing the movie right now.
Over at the MTV Movies Blog, where they’ve been doing good work lately, they managed to score a high-res version of the image that was unveiled at the Licensing Show in New York, the first official image anywhere for the film.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with an interesting bit about the adaptation of childhood classic WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE being helmed by Spike Jonze. Universal had the project, but I guess they decided CURIOUS GEORGE was as big a kiddie movie as they ne
