Feb 15 2008'Where the Wild Things Are' Clip Impossible to Frown At

What was that noise? Oh, it's just the sound of my heart exploding with pure, unadulterated glee.

It's just been taken down. But it was pretty fucking cool.

Not only has it been taken down, but the site says that the clip wasn't actually from the movie? That it was user-generated... not having seen the clip, I have no clue.

I doubt it was user-generated. The cinematography was too good, the effects (though rather rough) seemed too advanced for something made by a pedestrian, and the wild thing was clearly voiced by Benicio del Toro.

What she said ^^

I want to believe!

I want to see..

dammit!! Too late.
I'm dying to see it.

I'm getting pretty sick of movie studios pulling these things down. Do they not realize the free marketing they're getting?

I was jazzed right up to see this clip... WTWTA was one of my favorite books as a child.. and now I'm so disappointed I might just snub the whole movie on principle.

LISTEN UP MOVIE STUDIOS: STOP REMOVING THE FREE MARKETING THAT PEOPLE ARE NICE ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU OR WE'RE GOING TO STOP PAYING TO SEE YOUR SHIT-ASS MOVIES, PERIOD!

*ahem* shhhh..

Thanks for the link, we'll keep it between us. I don't believe that's Benicio Del Toro's voice. Towards the end when he spoke low it sounded like him, but I don't think it's him, I think it's oh what's his name, I can see him in my mind, oh ya, Forrest Whittaker.

Many thanks, cactus! That was a great clip. Something about the cinematography, or the scenery, made this feel really awesome and warm and fuzzy and dreamlike. I could definitely enjoy that grooviness for an hour and change.

'sure to bring about the kind of warm, smile-inducing nostalgia you wish you got from the Indiana Jones trailer.'

I've tolerated your often unintelligent thoughts and comments without saying a peep but you start to critique anything Indiana Jones like you know what you're talking about and I say, "GO FUCK YOURSELF You (more than likely) fat ass, work at home, no money having, no pussy getting, dot com DOUCHE BAG!

Colin -

i've said the same thing about the editors of this site. They make lame ass jokes, retarded comments, and often time they talk about shit they have no idea about. I stopped coming here for the longest time cause I get sick of the stupid, unintelligent crap.

made in someone's backyard my ass... that's classic spike jonze cinemaphotography.

Um...I thought the charm of this site was the humor (which is pretty spot on most of the time). There's nothing wrong with calling out the Indiana Jones trailer because a) it was a terrible trailer, and b) just because the trailer's bad doesn't mean anyone's criticizing the actual movie or the character.

So calm down, dammit.

Hey Indiana Jones nerds, piss off back to that cesspool called AICN or shut your fucking mouths.

I agree, the whole reason I come to this site and its sister sites is the humour. I love biting humour and I love to see someone rip apart and industry that is way too high on itself. The money they spend on self promotion (award shows) could be spent rebuilding cities that they've used to film. Keep up the humor and wit and sarcasm, it's what brings me here everyday.

i dont normally comment on here or the sister sites. i enjoy them daily. and well, i had to comment on this one because that clip was fantastic.

and to the people that complain about what the writers on these sites say, i have a simple solution. dont keep coming back. if you dont like what theyre writing, then why do you come back and say that you "tolerate" it? no one is twisting your arm or forcing you to be here.

You Indiana Jones nerds who are willing to swallow even the most yawn-worthy trailers with breathless anticipation and pure fanboy ecstasy are the reason George Lucas has made so much money ruining things that were once great (read: Star Wars). Now, don't get me wrong - I'm still holding out hope that Indy 4 might be good. But the trailer is boring as hell (just some clips from the old movies to maximize our nostalgia followed by quick flashes of scenes from the new movie that show us basically nothing), and the only reason I come to I Watch Stuff is because of the snarky comments. I don't even care much about movie news - I just like to laugh at the cynicism. So if he wants to crack a gag about the silly Indy trailer, that's great. Not everyone worships it with fanboyish devotion.

I missed even a glimple of Where the Wild Things Are. If anyone sees the clip somewhere else would you please post a link here? I look back everyday for news on it.

Indiana Jones trailer sucked you no standard having nerds.

This trailer has bad acting, good cinematography. The suit also looks like a big suit.

This is not from the movie, it is some sort of screenplay test, I actually watched this movie at a very early screening and have been sworn to secrecy, but 100% sure its not the actuall movie but I am sure it was testing for the movie because a scene very similar is in the movie, the kid in this video is not the real kid in the actual movie, the monster is and I think the real voice is James Galdofini who is awesome and way better than this guy. just wait for the real deal it is going to kick so much ass. by the way I found a link of the vid on youtube.

Clip has benn pulled down - wah wah wahhhhhhhh

spike jonze = awesome

this site really is 2nd rate to filmdrunk, even you fag trolls arent entertaining

Was that Beck playing at the beginning? or Them?

Nah that ain't the real trailer - but it could be what it says; a screen test. Lets all thirty of us speculate about the accuracy of the headline. Gandolfini would make an excellent voice for this flick so long as he doesn't lay on the Jersey - hey speaking of Jersey, the Jersey is a breed of cow and I'll bet theres a great cow waiting to get milked at millionairecowsneedamilkintoo.com. I should go and look!

I'm with everyone else on the the "if you don't like it stop coming here" train of thought.

I am obliged to point out that with regards to "if you don't like it stop coming here" that this site is largely a site about not liking movies - the snark borderlines pure venom and contempt LONG before you or I add to it.

Hi Mark!

Keep pointing then because this site is about liking good movies. I'm sorry you have such poor taste and low standards that you don't realize when Hollywood shits in your mouth and calls it a sundae.

Such fond memories.

damnit i want to see that clip. btw, your blogging counterparts have been writing away all day. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? HOW WILL I KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON? maybe i'll go outside...

"this site is about liking good movies"

"you don't realize when Hollywood shits in your mouth and calls it a sundae"

I rest me case.

"I Watch Stuff is an entertainment blog covering the latest in movie news, clips, and trailers"

Straight from the "About". Okay?? It's about ENTERTAINING people in the category of MOVIES. If you don't think the way he entertains is funny, then stop fucking reading it, or shut your mouth. It just does NOT make sense to me. There are tons of other websites out there of the same concept as this one, so go read those and quit with the tears about Indiana fucking Jones

clip is here: http://www.joblo.com/wild-things-clip

Listen douche you can't spew hatred and bile and then say "dont come here spewing hatred and bile". Go read a book kid.

Incidentally www.darkhorizons.com is the longest running movie site period and it has zero hatred. Point being movies and bile may not be a natural combo.

Proteon is a very convincing troll who lives in his mother's basement and is desperate for attention. He somehow thinks that the internet is the real world, and by getting the attention of others through combative discourse, that he is interacting with real people... when in fact he is really just a lonely fat guy living in his mother's basement.

I feel for you, Proteon. You know what? You should order a pizza, and in the fleeting few moments you receive the pizza and give the delivery driver his or her change, you'll have a minute of actual human interaction. It's alright. It's going to be okay.

I win.
