Went to see Where the Wild Things Are today. *generic comments ahead* It's a very thoughtfully made and beautifully shot movie. I agree with what most of the critics have been saying; awesome soundtrack, a few slow parts, not fitting the mold of a kid's movie. I think my original copy of the book is growing mold in the basement of my parents' house..along with the Babysitter's Club books. I did pick up another copy, and was amused to be surprised at the very little amount of text. :) Anyway, the theater was full of adults and their children. There were a few laughs, but I get the impression that the adults should 'get it' more than the kids. The opening of the movie really captured the essence of the book. The worst part of the movie were a half dozen or so previews for lame CGI children's movies before it started...though I suspect the kids in the theater think the opposite.
