The first substantial trailer for Where the Wild Things Are just snuck up on us and said boo. And yes, we're scared. The Maurice Sendak children's classic about a naughty boy who creates his own wild woods of the imagination where he can be king looks to be kinda creepy-magical.

It's directed by Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation) who seems like a perfect creepy-magical choice behind the lens.

But what's your take on this two-minute glimpse backed by a bouncy tune from Arcade Fire? Does Wild Things look like a thing of wonder, or are you wondering why they bothered? Let us know in the comments section.
