The "Where The Wild Things Are" movie is currently scheduled for an October 2009 release! YAY! Its based on the book (obviously) and will feature huge puppets with CGI faces. I am SO glad that they did not go 100% CGI.
I can't wait for the rumpus to begin! If you don't already own jumpin' jammerz, you may want to get them in time for the rumpus...

puppets, or muppets? And do you know the difference? Okay, technically the only difference is Frank Oz and Jim jr. make muppets and anybody can make a puppet. Examples: Yoda - Muppet. Team America - Puppets. I once wrote a paper on the practical differences between puppets and muppets, but now my brain is filled with hops residue and I'll probably never remember them.
ReplyDeleteThe articles that I read said people, inside of giant puppets. ??
ReplyDeleteDunno WHAT that is, but it's no muppet! :)
I thought that what Team America used was marionettes?
Big puppet suit with a person in it, but only to move the main body around. Details like facial expressions, hand movements, etc. are all controlled off-camera like a puppet.
ReplyDeleteAlso,
ReplyDeletelittle known fact Dragon is an actual muppet. Its true. Lisa operates the controls.
