Where the Wild Things Are trailer, you guys:
Well played, Where the Wild Things Are. First a great poster and now a great trailer. If you were a horse and I was a sad old man in torn poop pants at the OTB, I would bet on you!
This thing seriously looks scientifically designed to fuck up the hipsters’ shit. Do the math. Spike Jonze + Arcade Fire + Nostalgia + Magic + Monsters + Divorced Moms + Snowballs + Scribble Font + Shouting Off a Cliff. Throw in a scene in which the Wild Things are pounding PBRs while complaining about their freelance graphic design jobs, and Williamsburg would be washed away by a tidal wave of you know what. Whatever, I’ll take the train up there. Let’s die together.
McDonald’s should change their motto to “I’m Where The Wild Things Are-in’ It” because of how much I’m lovin’ this.

I could not agree more with you on this one. I don’t know what to do withy myself now I’m so choked over how much I love this. I did feel a bit like a sucker though. Arcade Fire, you know. They know we can’t help ourselves with all these things. But who cares! I don’t see any way this movie can not end up being great. Ah, I’m so psyched right now!
this is the anti-: (
the trailer wont show up, which makes me very sad.
So…this is what happy feels like!
part of me wants this to just be it. it’s like when the trailer for I Heart Huckabees came out — i was so completely psyched for that film. and then, well, you know. fingers crossed…
You know, I spent three years attending and subsequently dropping out of University so I could become a freelance graphic designer, and this is the fucking thanks I get?
if i had a penny for every time i heard that line, i would have a shit load of pennies.
honestly, I just bawled a little bit.
same here. i’m going to blame it on being sick and emotional.
you forgot one part of the equation for hipster love: David Eggers! (he helped with the screenplay)
I was going to say this too. Also: I totally predicted the Arcade Fire song used would be “Wake Up.” Totes magotes.
that wild_thing-throwing at 1:45 is so awesome.
It’s totally Banana Splits.
Google it.
if they could replace all that running with Max on a fixed gear…NOW you’ve got hipster Xanadu.
I peed Hugh Jackman’s pants watching this.
you forgot: messy hair, ironic sweater, ironic winter jacket, grade school science classroom, adhd, and james gandolfini’s loud breathing.
You also forgot that Karen O is doing the soundtrack…but besides that, this movie made me pee in excitement.
okay, trailer finally showed itself.
too fucking good.
You forgot two items in your hipster math. MUSIC BY KAREN O and SCREENPLAY BY SPIKE JONES AND DAVE EGGERS. Could this movie get any more hipster?
Umm…hi.
That’s Where My $12 Are (going to be)
What is this tomfoolery? Ok, I can’t wait for this.
I want to go to there.
I got chills.
Also, where can I get my very own wolf suit? The crown I can make myself.
Mark Ruffalo? AWESOME!
Okay guys that was pretty good… Yeah.
But just imagine how much more magic it would be if it had the music of Emmy Award Winning Coposeer Michael J Lewis.
i meant to write composer but kenny gave me something and told me to suck on it and now everything is all candycane.
Trailer = video win.
Gabe’s McDonald’s quip = internet win.
yo! that boy WAY had the run down! (see 0:57)
looks reeeeeeal cool….
I actually wish Catherine Keener was my mom too.

WRONG. It’s called EMOTIONS, ROBOT. Time to download your latest update, which will finally allow you to experience feelings, just like peoples.
Hey now, I have feelings too.
“That feeling that you’re feeling is what the rest of us call…a feeling.”
“But it’s not angry, or even hungry!”
You left out the best part:
“Maybe it’s love.”
“I know what an erection feels like, Michael.”
Any chance any of you cool kids know where that alternate version of Wake Up that is initially playing in the trailer is from?
Yes. I want it too.
….is it okay to admit I cried? already?
Join the club.
I shed a tear. 5 year old Becca is having a great day!
I don’t know if its healthy for an adult without children to be this excited for a children’s movie, but I am going apeshit.
Same.
I’ve already watched this twice and I teared up the second go-around. It’s one of the best movie trailers I’ve seen (and totally the best one since Slumdog Millionaire’s).
Ok, apparently I’m the only one who thought Slumdog had a TERRIBLE TRAILER.
I loved the movie, but the trailer was unconvincing.
“Slumdog” as a whole was unconvincing.
This, on the other hand, will be the film of the year.
In terms of mouth-agapeness, this trailer comes in second place to No Country for Old Men
Glad to hear other people got ‘emotional’ watching this too.
Me too. I felt a little weird being teary, until I read the comments.
A videogummer (is that the right noun?) never cries alone.
this looks amazing.
Hey now, I have feelings too.
I can’t wait until October 16 to see this.
I’ll watch this until I go blind.
Oh god *melts a little on the inside* The scribbly font really got me.
why is the big wild thing crying? he’s making me so sad.
who self-identify themselves a hipster?
I was so wrapped up in the Arcade Fire I thought it was going to say “From one of the most beloved albums of all time,” but then I remembered.
I am already in love with this movie. I’m going to go dig up my book and look through it again.
I wasn’t even that interested in this movie until now, but that is one of the best trailers I’ve ever seen.
This makes me want to smile.
This makes me want to watch Eternal Sunshine, and I don’t know why, but it’s a good thing.
max = child panda bear
I’m totally going to bring this trailer up in my adaptations class this arvo. Some directors can do it right after all! (fingers crossed)
THERE IS A LOT OF RUNNING
(look, it’s a good trailer. it’s just… slow down, kid. breathe.)
YES.
Jim Henson!
there, i said it first.
The inclusion of Arcade Fire in the trailer only made this movie look that much more amazing. I can’t help but go see this now; god I love when good childhood books get made into movies (re: good movies).
Liked the trailer, but feh on the Arcade Fire.
is it sad that im utterly excited for this movie jsut based on the trailer? i was awes-truck all 2 minutes of it. ick
Is it sad that that quick shot of the (I think it was) Moishe crying and holding his face was one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever seen?
God, I just wanted to reach into my computer and hug him. I cannot wait for this movie.
How many where the wild things are inspired costumes will be worn this year on halloween will ulitmately determine the hipster-ness of this movie.
When we were wee, my mom made me and my brother Halloween costumes like Max’s outfit. Best Costumes Ever. We wore them as pajamas until we outgrew them.
How many where the wild things are inspired costumes worn this year on halloween will ulitmately determine the hipster-ness of this movie.
“How many where the wild things are inspired costumes worn this year on halloween will ulitmately determine the hipster-ness of this movie.” Njoy
I’ve been planning mine for a month already… lets hope I can pull it off!
This trailer had me at ‘Hello’!
This trailer tricked me into listening to an Arcade Fire song.
I just added to the “Tears Shed While Watching This Trailer Bucket”. That new kid looks fantastic as Max and Forest Whitaker has such a great quietly booming voice. This movie looks awesome.
forest whitaker isn’t in the trailer, right? it’s old James Gandolfini, eh
Oh nerds, I thought that was him but I think you’re right.
I cant stop watching this trailer!! Someone call my mom, quick!!!
Maurice Sendak must be proud
Fuck this. Fuck the Arcade Fire. Fuck you, Spike Jonze, you unoriginal piece of shit. Fuck all of you idiots for liking this. Must every rightfully-beloved piece of pop culture be recycled? Apparently! The book was fucking amazing because it left almost everything to your imagination. Oh well, now it’s a feature film! Thanks for raping a good memory, Hollywood! Seriously, fuck everything.

never read the book as a child, but this looks awesome. i shall get messed up and see this for sure.
Man, this is kind of a relief. I hadn’t really been all that excited to see this movie, which made me feel like maybe there was something wrong with me, but that trailer did the trick.
Im definitely sad about this movie. I loved the book, and I was actually planning on being Max this year for halloween before i knew they were even making a movie. Im seriosly considering scrapping the idea because of all the hipster scum and their stupid fucking Urban Outfitters t-shirts, that undermine the innocence of the story. Thanks you pretentious ‘I-got-this-from-the-thrift-store” bastards.
