I have yet to see Where The Wild Things Are - not because I'm not interested in seeing that movie - I am - but just like with every other freakin' movie I want to see in the theatre, I had to weigh finding AND affording a babysitter against waiting for it to come out on DVD. Given the cost of babysitters these days, waiting for DVDs usually wins.
The reason I didn't take Gemma is at age four she freaks out easily. She's a sensitive soul and after watching her run from the theater in hysterics during the movie UP!, I figured that Where The Wild Things Are might provoke the same response. Also, I heard it was more of an adult movie than one for the kids.
After watching this video, I tend to agree. Funny... I didn't see these parts in the trailer.

Oh Tony, Tony, Tony... James Gandolfini will always be Tony Soprano. Sorry dude, you can take the character away from the man, but you can't take the wild thing away from the character. Forever typecast, the curse of the working actor.
I wanted to take my 5yo to see this in the theater, but I knew it would freak out the 3yo. So 5yo's first movie theater experience was Princess and the Frog. Now waiting for BOTH of these to come out on DVD.
