Karen O the lead singer of the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s recorded the entirety of WTWTA’s soundtrack with help from some young fresh voices, “The Kids”.
I really love the spirit and vibe of this Soundtrack. It has a very earthy, energetic and wild sound to it. And let’s not forget the talented Karen O’s lovely voice, who I’m a sucker for. I LOVE HER!
This album makes me want to run outdoors and just let myself go and be free. I’m excited to see what visuals will compliment these great songs. We’ll see what Director Spike Jonze has in store for us on Friday Oct 16th, when the movie is set to come out.
I’ve listened to the soundtrack quite a few times already and I have some favorites. Capsize, Worried Shoes, Hideaway, Cliffs, Animal and Lost Fur. I can see this becoming a favorite album for both adults and kids of all ages.
Check out Vice’s WTWTA website where you can stream the entire album, as well check out artwork from 24 different regular contributing artists inspired by the story, interviews and behind the scenes.
Where The Wild Things Are is a 1963 children’s picture book by American writer Maurice Sendak. Although just ten sentences long, the book is generally regarded as a masterpiece of American illustrated childrens literature.
Here’s a video of the story.
Check out this video with author Maurice Sendak and Spike Jonze talking about the movie.
Japanese toy company Medicom Toy has produced a commemorative set of Kubricks.
The set includes eight figures from the book Including characters: the protagonist, Max and The Wild Things, which are scheduled for release this month. All eight toys, along with a special 12″ Max RAH (Real Action Hero) Doll are now available for order through select Medicom retailers.

9 is an animated sci-fi/action film directed by Shane Acker and produced by Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov, director of Wanted, and stars Elijah Wood, John C. Reilly, Jennifer Connelly,Crispin Glover, Martin Landau and Christopher Plummer.
.
It is based on Acker’s Academy Award-nominated short film of the same name. Although CGI, the movie has a stylized look resembling stop motion.
.
9 takes place in a world parallel to our own, in which the very legacy of humanity is threatened.
.
The film has been rated PG-13 for violence and scary images. I’m curious to check this one out.
.
.
.
Here are some action figures of the sentient rag dolls from the movie 9 that you can purchase on Amazon.
