Where the Wild Things Looks Good Even without Arcade Fire

My love — and most of yours — for the theater length trailer for Where the Wild Things Are is widely known in these parts. It’s wistful and magical and heart-tugging and just all around powerful, and at least some of that can be attribute to the Arcade Fire song. Well, this new 30-second TV Spot doesn’t have Arcade Fire — the song is one of many from Karen O and the Kids, who are responsible for the film’s kid-friendly soundtrack, which — by the way — comes out tomorrow. Parents — it’s not too late to preorder. I have, and it’ll be on my doorstep Tuesday (along with Away We Go).

Anyway, check out the TV Spot. It’s solid. And I am so gonna raise my kid hipster. Not LA douchebag hipster. But the cool, Austin hipster. This movie (and the soundtrack) is gonna be a great first step.

Well. I'm so in love I don't mind it's rated PG.

Raise them to be Minneapolis hipsters. All the style, substance, intelligence, and coolness of Austin hipsters, and they don't have to live in Texas! You can't lose!

When I was little this was one of my favorite/first books. I LOVED it. I drowned in it. I had a little stuffed monster and everything. I used to go around shouting, "I'll eat you up!"

I can't tell you how refreshing it is to know that there are a million other people who had the same love affair with this magical story. I feel like I'm part of community I wasn't aware existed.

Oh god. Minneapolis hipster. MY FAVORITE KIND! Better, even, than German hipster in my humble, humble, oh-so-humble opinion.

Hey, there's nothing like a Florida Hipster. I'm sorry, make that Florida Hip Replacementster.

I for my part will make a hundred percent sure that my children will never be attributed hipster. They will wear straightjackets and suits, just to make sure that they won't fit in with any crowd. They will have to listen to classical music and practice playing an instrument (of their choice.) at least two hours a day.

No raw meat, refined sugar or caffeine. Just the excitement when they see this movie, with me, over and over again.

(now that I have come to think about it, sounds pretty German hipster to me. Which I am down with. totally.)

Believe me, Berkshire/Elite Prep School Hipsters are by far the most intolerable.

Anyway, I am so excited about this movie.
