Why exactly did they feel the need to turn it into a rhyming story - especially one with some pretty clumsy rhymes? I don't think I'll ever understand how G4 does things. #wherethewildthingsare

Considering he just got dropped from his record label, you'd think that G4 would actually GET the real Zombie to do this. He has the time. #wherethewildthingsare

@Xsuit: Have you listened to some of Rob stuff? Necrophilia and cannibalism are common place. But if Insect is to much, the wild things can have her while he goes after the family dog. #wherethewildthingsare

How does Rob Zombie have a career? Especially on the movie side of things. All his flicks have been abominations.

I'd rather watch Heroes. And if you've seen me post in most of the threads about Heroes, i fucking loathe Heroes.

What Kevin Smith says about Hollywood is true: You just fail up the ladder. #wherethewildthingsare

@I_Like_TDs: The only problem with Rob Zombie movies are usually the story, the rest is pretty brilliant. #wherethewildthingsare

@Illogic: His movies blow. They are terrible. Story. Dialog. Characters. Themes. I don't care to argue cinematography, soundtrack, etc.

The original Halloween is a masterpiece. His is complete and utter garbage.

You must think Michael Bay is the Orson Welles of our time.

I actually dig a couple of his songs, but you have to wade through some pretty horrid shit to find those diamonds in the rough. #wherethewildthingsare

Too much plot for a Rob Zombie affair.

This is actually a good thing. If you stand Kanye right next to Jonze, and strike Kanye in the head hard enough, he'll smack into Jonze and they'll both be on their asses.
Problem solved. #wewereonceafairytale

@mattattaxx: Well, I don't like to knock Working Creatives. Yet, Spike's ambitions early on stepped on toes, besides some hip posturing. But people can say that about anyone who is jockeying for fame status. Mind you, I'm not advocating hitting Jonze first, just Kanye. #wewereonceafairytale

@gods-n-clods: Jonze makes a lot of noise, and he's pretty gutsy in general, but I don't see that as a bad thing. He's definitely getting where he wants to go and he's not going to get there making the films he makes without stepping on a crowd of toes. #wewereonceafairytale

As I told a friend earlier today, I'd much rather see Kanye work with Spike Jones than Spike Jonze.

I went with my wife, our two year old son, and another couple with their three year old daughter. I loved the book. Hadted the movie. I spent most of the time telling my son that that is bad, and dont doo those things. Max is a bad kid. He really liked the owls flying until the wild thing hit them with a rock and they fell down. She said "they like it" reguarding the birds captured under her arms. My son nearly cried. The other couple we went with had to leave the movie multiple times because their daughter was so upset with the film. She ended up not being able to go to bed because the thought a wild thing was going to eat her.
I couldnt believe they didnt do the bedroom-to-forest scene. That should have been awesome. In the end nothing seemed resolved. He diddnt help the wild things, and diddnt fix his home life. South Park has a better message of morality that this film. Really dissappointing take on an imaginative childs imagination book.
Perhaps I just diddnt have a bad enough childhood to understand the misery and viloence in this film.

Paranormal Activity is more impressive than any of that, it pulled in 20.2 million on 760 screens. The show my wife and went to sold out quick, I think it ended up getting oversold by a few seats actually. I would say that it is on track to decimate Blair Witch, and for good reason because it is actually scary.

I am so ashamed that I was so terrified by the end of the movie, and me watching it again would take a couple of xanax. My dad asked me if he should watch it stoned and I told him that it would just amplify the terror, I couldn't be paranoid and scared shitless at the same time. #wherethewildthingsare

It looks like an intelligent, thoughtful family movie that might spark some real conversation. That's pretty rare in US kids fare. Like a good book, good family movie will have something for viewers of all ages. #wherethewildthingsare
