Thanks to Dave and Jon from HeyUGuys who guest-blogged on This is Now a few weeks ago, I discovered the trailer of Spike Jonze’s new movie Where the Wild Things Are. I know I’ve already mentioned this on the This is Now Twitter but the trailer is so good I thought it deserved a new blog post entirely.

Where the Wild Things Are is a famous children’s picture book by Maurice Sendak which tells the adventure of a young boy named Max, punished and sent to bed without supper. Angry and frustrated Max creates an imaginary world of wild creatures who eventually crown him king.

I obviously have no idea if the movie will be any good, but all I can say is that Spike Jonze, famous for his music videos, created a beautiful trailer. The song Wake Up by the Canadian band Arcade Fire conveys an incredible sense of rythm, giving the viewer the impression to be right in the middle of the story.
