You better look out below

The trailer to Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are is pretty heart-wrenching. Whether it's from memories of sitting indian style in a classroom while a teacher read the book to you, or Arcade Fire's emotion crushing dance-a-long 'Wake Up' that scores it. Whatever the reason, it's bound to strike something inside of you that gets you on the verge of tears, even if your not sure why.


Karen O (of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs) is scoring the film, which I'm personally on the fence about. I'm expecting great things, but this sounds like a first for her. If the entire thing was filled with Arcade Fire's Funeral then I'd be happy as bees (a wish of mine since I first bought the album), but rarely do I hear a trailer song actually make it to the final product.

Anyways, Where the Wild Things Are comes out October 16th.
