| 152 | Andrea Spencer | We will roar our terrible roars and gnash our terrible teeth and roll our terrible eyes and show our terrible claws if you turn this beloved book into something so varied from the original that children of all ages don't even recognize it. The imagination of a young child can be a dark yet beautiful thing. Don't limit their creativity (or Jonze's) to sunshine and bunnies. There's nothing interesting or unique in the expected. Ultimately i think the author should have the final say. It's his original work, and if you're not going to stick to the look and feel and over all vibe, then you shouldn't be allowed to title it anything closely resembling "Where the Wild Things Are". |
| 153 | Mitsuko Akaha | Where the Wild Things Are has remained, in my twenty-somethings years of life, a favorite of mine. I remember telling friends at a young age that the book "changed my life" before I even really knew what the phrase meant, and though it may have not affected me as deeply as I articulated it to be then, I still look at the book and am penetrated by a deep sense of wonder and amazement. I cannot say this about many books, including those I read now that are treated with more consideration and respect than any children's book, and I feel that Jonze and Eggers are probably the most capable of bringing this marvel to life. I have watched Jonze's films and read a great deal of Eggers' works and am confident that this team has the ability to give life to Maurice Sendak's story. Though it is somewhat unfortunate that the film's maturity has been deemed unsuitable for children, the fact that so many people have already put in so much work to bring this project to fruition makes it seem foolish to throw it away and start again. It is also important to remember that the people familiar with this book, published in 1988, are now the crowd toward which the film is directed now. Though children now may appreciate a movie version of the book, I think that those who enjoyed the book in its prime would value any film version of the book more than any child. I beg you to please reconsider the termination of this project and have faith in those people who took the time to petition, as I am, that know the book deserves the attention Jonze and Eggers have given it. |

| 158 | Adam Sorensen | Supporting the source material creator's wishes might be nice once in a while. If only the creators were always attached to adaptations of the movies and had a bit more of a say in things... |

| 185 | Max Conrad Robbins | This movie better god damned make it untouched. I remember reading this book and being read this book as a young child and the feeling of relif it gave at the end. The way it emotionally stacks is completely unique as does this movie; hopefully. So that is why I'm so passionate about this being made untouched. |
| 186 | Billy Youngblood | Don't change the movie! It's fine the way it is! |

| 189 | Andrew | Spike Jonze deserves his shot on making another remarkable movie, and capturing the dark absurdity of the original book. Sanitizing the original work's tone would make for a horrible film and adaptation. |
