If there's an award to be given for the best trailer of the year, right now it has to go to Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are. Using a music video style presentation and backed by Arcade Fire's "Wake Up", this already looks like the most fun film of the fall season. The trailer actually reminds me a little bit of the frolicking, quirky playfulness of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind's trailer, but with monsters ofcourse. Dig it.
I love it! I still can't tell fully if it's CGI or costumed characters, but I love the look regardless. If it is CGI, it's done in a way that is reminiscent of the Henson movies and the muppets or Del Toro with Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy. Can't wait...it really feel's like a throwback to the years of films like 'A Neverending Story' and 'The Princess Bride'
ReplyDeleteI had heard they were using full costumes, and only the faces would be mostly CGI.
