53 AnonymousIf Sendak trusts Jonze to reflect the outlook and themes of the book, then so do I!

55 Francis WhitmanI've wanted to see this movie ever since I had heard of its inception. If Spike cannot make it no one should.

57 AnonymousIf Maurice Sendak worked on the film as a consultant, and is apparently very pleased why won't WB fully supports Jonze's vision? I'd see this movie in a heartbeat. Just because your marketing dept doesn't know how to sell it doesn't mean it won't make you money!

61 Noah Rubeling-KainThis is a disgrace to art. Put the movie that was shot out!
62 Robert MitchellSpike Jonze is one a very few directors working today who is a true visionary. His work is highly entertaining and original and the studio should release the film with his vision intact. And a complete re-shoot makes no fiscal business sense. Exorcist The Beginning Anyone?

63 Stephen CokerThis book was a part of millions of people's childhoods...and it looks freaking awesome
64 Jeremy AndersonI loved this book as a kid and I think a vast proportion of my generation did too. Adaptation is one of my favorite movies, and I trust that Jonze's portrayal of this film would be stellar. Save the Wild Things!!!!
65 Estaban CokarThis movie looks to good not to happen.

75 Erik NoonanAs a child, this was one o my favorite books. As I watched the clip which had been released onto the net, I honestly felt touched. I feel that the director and the actors have truly captured the spirit which the author of the book tried to capture. If the rest of the film was of a similar quality, I believe that it will go on to be a timeless classic everyone will enjoy, both children and adults. The story speaks so much about life and the struggles we all must endure, as well as human nature in general. Give Mr. Jonze a chance. Thanks

90 Collin HolmesThis appears to be the way the story was meant to be portrayed--dark, morose. Please don't attempt to water this down for focus groups. It is going to be a big success just how it is.
91 Jon GriffinI want to see spike's version. Grow up. The Generation that enjoyed the book the most is grown and can deal with it. Please release it Spike!
92 Colin GeorgeI support the director's vision. In the end, a deep and memorable film (even if it's too "dark" for some) will be more profitable than trying to create a quick family friendly affair no one will remember six months down the road. Where the Wild Things are was a book I remember being frightened of as a young child, and to expect anything else from the film is to be unfaithful to the source material. Leave this film as is!

100 Alex BuonoFirstly, I can understand why this presumably this film is not meant for children. The initial footage released seems to display a raw emotion that attempts to engage a naivety that children have when approaching people, but I don't know if it's particularly appropriate in the eyes of parents that will watch this film with kids. Although, this is a film that should be saved because it is a genuine answer to other films of similar tone internationally, some call it "magic realism". There can be marketing shift to support this film, it would be a waste to not consider it. I believe there would be a good response to support an American filmmaker who achieves a vision that displays universal truths about children entering society Sendak's original children's book. I for one, would definitely be in line.
