Definitely on my list. Trailer got me weirdly emotional because I'm a big pussy I guess.

Nice this comes out on the 27th. The trailer looks beautiful.

Hope to catch this one in the theatre, living near LA ain't so bad.

Perhaps its just reaction to the immense acclaim that Nolans Batman receives. I dont think its particularly a great film but gets an extra nudge on my list of awesome considering its Batman.

That said, just looking at the trailer im not sure why this should be viewed in contrast to TDKRs outside of the idea that theyre both coming out soon.

im hoping the new batman isnt the Godfather 3 of the series.

i think they could have cleared up some of the ambiguity in that trailer by calling this what it really is, "where the wild things are 2".

pretty sure the batman comparison is a joke.

maybe let's put batman shit in the batman thread so that people can discuss the movie at hand?

Yea this looks really good. I always hold out hope they show what I want to see at my favorite artisan theatre but the really good ones always wind up at the sorta run down one outta the way. I'll see this where ever though.

this movie woops that movies ass simply by its ode to katrina implications

spike jonze w/o kaufman is suspect far as features go

All of the indie theatres are dead here, except one that only has 3 screens. Probably a renter for me.

saw the premier midnight showing of this last night

i had free tix and saved it for this and i wanted to see it ASAP

its amazing and cathartic and a wonderful viewing

i laughed...i cried...

the director is the son of NY academic folklorists and is part of an art collective based out of New Orleans, so he's comin from the right place i think to pull something like this off

its indie as fuck, has a lot of guts and is pulled off beautifully, with an economical run time of 90 min

i respect a good 90 min film and this ones a gem

that lil 6 yr old girl did a great job too
