Here are some interesting things I’ve seen on the web this week.  They range from funny videos and science news, to movies and different web  apps.

Surely, you know about Where the Wild Things Are.  This is an extremely well-known children’s book from the late 80′s.  It’s about a naughty boy in a wolf suit who ends up partying with all these monsters…and he doesn’t get ripped apart by these foul-looking beasts.  I do endorse Monster Insurance.

Although you get a lot of people out there complaining about how Hollywood capitalizes on and ruins their childhood memories, I’m actually pretty excited about the Where The Wild Things Are movie. Hey, it’s not directed by Michael Bay, so I think we’re all safe.  We’re lucky it’s Spike Jonez directing it.   Here’s the trailer.  Try to tell me it doesn’t look amazing.  By the way, the song playing in the trailer is Wake Up, by the Arcade Fire.
