We Love You So – Where The Wild Things Are – Spike Jonze

The billboards are going up, the character posters are hitting bus benches, the fun is about to begin. Yep, we’re less than a month away from the theatrical release of Where The Wild Things Are and everyone around here is getting pretty excited. In the coming weeks we will have a lot of great WTWTA related tidbits for you as well as updates on all of the screenings,parties, giveaways and generally rad stuff that will be happening in the lead up to the launch. And what better way to kick things off then with a party!?!

Our friends at Urban Outfitters Space 1520 are opening the doors to our Wild Things pop up shop this Saturday. The shop will feature Wild Things costumes (like the one pictured above) designed by Christian Joy, Wild Things merchandise, opening night DJ sets by Squeak E. Clean and all sorts of wild art and film goodies. A portion of the proceeds from the pop up shop will go to benefit 826 LA which is a really fantastic charity.

Vintage Eggers! Or maybe not vintage, but also not newish. This is Dave Eggers accepting his 2008 TED Prize and giving a little talk about his wonderful organization 826 Valencia. I like TED talks because they remind me of the Google headquarters, lucid dreaming, evangelical Christian rock concerts and school all at once. But in a great way.
