I'm really looking forward to Director Spike Jonze's live action film adaptation of Maurice Sendak's beloved children's book Where the Wild Things Are. (the screenplay is written by Dave Eggers)
The official movie trailer is going to air as a preview for DreamWorks' Monsters vs. Aliens (in theaters March 27th, 2009).
A preliminary trailer leaked last month on the web, and later came with a disclaimer from the director that it was premature.
