Where The Wild Things Are

I took my kids to the movies today to see Where The Wild Things Are. They enjoyed it. I did too, to my relief. This has been one of my favorite books since I was 5 or 6 years old when I was first introduced to it. I was as apprehensive as I was excited that Spike Jonze was directing, and didn't know what to expect. I deliberately avoided as many of the trailers as I could, although I've seen the official trailer several times.
