I love this song, sadly i never got to see the movie, but whenever i listen to it all the sad memories came back, like being bullied for 8 years, or my best friend moving to another state :( so sad
@dragonuvkiller666 Aww ): That sounds horrible. I haven't seen the movie either but I love the song. I too was bullied for years but good music got me through it. I'll be here if you ever need anything :)
To me this song represents the phases in life. There are slow and sad times, and then the fast moving happy times. But by the time the song is over, I'm still smiling. Just like in life.
Thanks for making and posting this. Where The Wild Things Are was my favorite book as a kid (and its still my favorite childrens book ..shhhh!) and now I love the movie. Max Records is a good actor and I think the movie was well done. I wish they had put this song in the movie because it is so fitting.
when i first saw this movie as a freshman in high school, i didnt like it. but a few days later i couldnt stop thinking about it and realized it was an amazing movie written very well. im a junior now, and this remains one of my favorite movies of all time
Favorite kids book. Finally made it into a movie. And what do I do? I get fucking baked and go see it, and I can't remember a damned thing that happened ;-; I should rent it....
Beautiful movie, I'm just a kid, but the story line is unmatched.The completeness of the film and the child play makes it so that it just...I dunno.this movie just rocks.
btw this wasnt made for kids ot watch although u could if u wanted to this was actually meant to reach out to adults hearts. We'll always be a child at heart
just finished watching this film for the first time,its unlike anything else really,my childhood film was the neverending story which is quite similar in some respects,i did enjoy this film but for me the neverending story will always be better,it has more characters and he actually goes on a quest,if anybody hasnt seen the neverending story i highly recommend it!
i cried almost the whole movie, this like my childhood - i had big brothers that wont play with me, so i just used my imagination to fill in the blank, this touched me right in the heart, amazing
i think(i mean,it seemed pretty obvious to me)that carol represents max.thats why he understands him.
carol's"dream city"was similar to max's buildings in his room.and carol is also jealous about the two owls as max is jealous about his mum's boyfriend.and both of them feel lonely.
@dippdawgy I agree. But I think that KW represents Max's sister and the owls are her friends. KW left Carol for the owls, Max's sister left Max for an older crowd of friends.
Respond to this video... how cool would it be to forget about work, bills etc and run through the trees with the wildthings lol. "LET THE WILD RUMPUS START!!!” OOOOOOOHHHHHHH
The metaphorical level of this movie is beyond the reach of the imagination of any average human. The people who wrote this movie had hearts the size of the movie"s intenseness. Watching this movie makes me want to go back and read the book for the millionth time (after having read it and having had it read to me so often as a young child) and find out if the book was this metaphorical. It is such a great idea to portray the people in his life within the characters he met on his journey.
@CloudZ21 Thank you! god, i cannot believe how many people interpreted this so wrongly! It was not meant for children, but mature people who are willing to think for an hour or two. Besides that, it wasn't depressing, it was bitter-sweet and beautiful.
@BlackHelicopterz I simply mean I think each of the creatures in the movie represent a person in his life in some way. For example, the one that always gets angry (forgot his name) is likely to represent his father, because his parents are divorced, etc. And overall, for anybody who got the metaphor of this movie and has dealt with problems in there life involving those close to them, I believe this film is very relatable to them and could help people look at their situations more positively.
Definitely the sadest movie I've ever seen. Can't watch it when I'm bored, alone late at night and just can't sleep, makes me so sad I think of everthing else that makes me sad and there's alot of that, makes me feel like I'm just a little too close to suicide. =(
@huesodorado I know I am a badass lol but this movie even beats Dances With Wolves as being a really freaking sad movie and it shouldn't be mixed with insomnia.
I respect Spike Jones so much for taking a big part of my childhood and not fucking it up. This film also has the honour of being the only movie that's made me actually weep while watching it.
@velvetyblock Some of them would be actors in costumes. The creatures were done through Jim Henson studios, so think to movies like Labyrinth and Dark Crystal for a better understanding of how they worked.
@mimi99miette haha yeah i thought it was all CGI too! i didn't know they were people in costumes. It's hard to tell nowadays when everything is so advanced
