3 of my favourite childhood books are coming to life in film, and I for one am excited like a small child.
For your viewing pleasure, here are the trailers for them all. Best served warm, in large doses, topped with cream and raw cocoa nibs!
Where The Wild Things Are. Pyjamas, monsters and an Arcade Fire soundtrack? Where do I sign up?
Fantastic Mr Fox! Directed by the swoony Wes Anderson, based on the book by the genius Roald Dahl.
Alice in Wonderland – don’t be late! Mr. Depp does crazy so well, it’s very admirable.
Seriously, if you don’t get shivers down your spine after watching at least one of these, please advise and we will do our best to unearth your sense of joy – starting with a reading list.

Fantasic Mr Fox! I am unsure how I knew nothing about this until now, but I am super excited for it! I used to listen to the audio tape religiously. One of my favourites for sure, very eager to see! Thanks for bringing it to my attention ^_^
OMG, I can’t believe they’re making the Fantastic Mr Fox into a movie. The trailer looks great. I can’t wait!
As for Alice in Wonderland, I’m really looking foward to it. I’ve been seeing trailers and still shots for it and it looks magnificant!
I almost cried when I saw the ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ trailer in the cinema yesterday and sooooooo excited about both the others. SO excited.
Love the redesign!
Charley: Me too! I was so excited I got teary. Right before Harry Potter too, so it put me in a great mood. Ahhh the magic of cinema <3
Yes, right before Potter for me too. I actually found it hard to concentrate for the first half hour because I was busy thinking about WTWTA!

The first one is so sweet! And Alice, that movie must be wonderful. Have to see it. (And the old childrenmovie too, I’ve never seen it. :()
I really hope Alice in Wonderland will come in the cinemas in the Netherlands too! The trailer for it is very cool.
