Where The Wild Things Are
Hey, Claire!
Wanna see something great?
Who else was there?
It's an igloo.
- And?
- I made it.
Yeah, my brother.
Hey, Claire?
I can't. We're supposed to go
to my dad's that weekend.
The snowplows left some
snow across the street...
- and I dug a hole into it.
- Max, go play with your friends.
You, go that way!
You, go that way!
No, don't talk to me like that!
You're just a fence!
You can go play
with your own fence friends.
Now move out!
Hey, Claire, what's up? Are you ready?
- Hey, guys!
...and chose him, okay?
- Yeah!
Claire, is that your brother?
Get him!
He's so dead!
Max, go away!
I got him!
Come on! Come on!
Get him!
You okay?
Come on, guys, let's go!
Hey, I'm home.
What's wrong?
Claire and her stupid friends
smashed my igloo.
She didn't do anything about it.
I'm sorry, honey.
I would have done something about it.
Max, what have you done?
I took my lucky break
and I broke it in two,
Put on my worried shoes,
No, I don't want to bother you.
Just... just quickly...
Can you tell me excatly what Mr. Lasseter
didn't like about the report?
Wha... What am I supposed to do?
No, I'm just tired.
And I'd a rough day here and...
I... I cannot afford to lose this.
I know. I know it.
But I better get started because
I'd like to turn it in the morning.
No, I hear you. I hear you.
And this will be the last time,
I promise, okay?
Thanks.
My shoes took me down a crooked path
Hey.
- Hi.
I could use a story.
Sure.
There were some buildings.
There are these really tall buildings.
And they could walk.
Then there were some vampires.
And one of the vampires bit
the tallest building.
And his fangs broke off.
Then all his other teeth fell out.
Then he started crying.
And then all the other vampires...
...said...
"Why are you crying?
"Aren't those just your baby teeth?"
And...
He said,
"No, those are my grown up teeth. "
And...
...the vampires knew that
he couldn't be a vampire anymore.
So they left him.
The end.
And the sun is the center of
our solar system.
It's the reason that
all the planets are here.
It, uh, it's warmth gives the sunlight,
makes our planet livable.
And of course the sun won't
always be here to keep us warm.
It, uh, like all things will die.
And when it does,
first it expands.
Enveloping all the surrounding planets,
including earth...
...before consuming rapidly.
The sun, after all, is just fuel,
burning ferociously.
When it runs of fuel, well,
it'll be gone.
Well, after that the...
...solar system will do dark,
permanently.
I'm sure by that time, the...
...human race will have fallen to
any numbers of calamities.
War, pollution, global warming,
...tsunamies...
...earthquakes, meteors...
Hey, who knows, right?
Mom?
Mom, come up here!
Max, I'm busy.
I rebuit the fort.
The lava's coming.
oh, and it's a rocket ship,
and it's gonna take off.
Want me to save you a seat?
You're really... nice.
- Cute.
- No.
- Not really.
Hi, sweety.
Claire!?
It's almost dinner,
get your stuff off the table, please.
Mom, what is that?
Pate.
Frozen corn?
What's wrong with real corn?
Frozen corn is real, alright?
And get off the chair, please.
And go tell your sister
to clear her stuff of the table.
Claire, get your stuff off
the dining room table.
Max, don't pull that now.
Max, get off the counter, please.
Get off.
I have a friend here...
you're embarrassing me?
Woman, feed me!
Max, get off.
Get off the counter!
Get off the damn counter, Max!
Now! Now!
- I'll eat you up!
- Get down!
Get over here!
Stop!
What is wrong with you?
This is not acceptable behavior.
You are not acceptable.
No dinner for you, Max.
Go to your room.
- You bit me, kind of hurt!
- Connie, he can't treat you like that.
Max, what is wrong with you?
- You're out of control!
- Not my fault.
Max!
Max!
Max!
I hate you.
Hello?
That's it. Tear them all down.
Tear them down.
Burn down!
We've got a few more
to go over here.
Is anyone going to help me?
We liked them.
They were nice.
I mean, this is a problem.
Don't you see this is a problem?
- I will...
- No, I'll just do it myself.
- Help?
- As usual.
Carol, could I talk to you
for a second?
- No, Douglas, not right now. I'm busy.
- Okay.
Can you hear me from up here?
And I'm the only one
Or this!
Carol, is this really necessary?
- Ask KW.
- You ask KW if it's necessary.
- She's not here. She left.
I, huh, she left!
She left, exactly!
That's why it's necessary.
- I'll help.
- Okay.
Okay, good.
Come on, come on, here you go.
- Thank you.
- Glad to help.
Who else want to lend a hand?
- What do you say, Judith?
- Should I help too?
- No, you shouldn't help him!
- I just thought it'll make him feel better.
- Yup, good idea, Ira.
Go stand in this hut over here
before it gets wrecked.
I know, I know, I shouldn't.
- Ira, you're not helping.
- Go in the hut.
- I'll stand right over here.
No!
This is crazy!
No, no, it was crazy already.
I'm just eliminating the crazy.
I don't think
the crazy's been eliminated.
Isn't anyone gonna be
on my side anymore?
Yeah, well, I guess not.
Fine.
I'll just be on my own side.
By myself.
Nobody cares.
I'm the only one that cares...
...that we don't stay together.
I'm the only one
- See? I care!
- Carol?
You don't care
and just stand there...
...and whisper to each other
about me,
- like you always do.
- That's true.
But I know what I'm doing.
Ira, what is it?
- I don't know.
Hello.
See? This guy gets it.
Hey, uh, weird little thing...
I like the way you destroy stuff.
Good technique.
There's a spark to your work,
that can't be taught.
Thanks.
Alright, you see that one over there?
You get that one,
I'll get this one.
- See who can do it faster, okay?
- Okay.
Go!
What are you doing?
- I... I...
- I'm just helping.
- My smashing our houses?
- These are your houses?
- Yeah.
- What's wrong with them?
- What do your houses look like?
- I bet his houses are funny looking.
- Look, we worked very hard on these.
Then you, sir, showed up
and started "helping. "
- Im cold.
- Who are you?
Are you one of KW's new friends?
- Are you Bob or Terry?
- I don't even know who that is.
- Looks like a Bob.
- Thing's are getting crazy here.
- This thing's dangerous.
- You're scaring me.
You know what I say,
if you've got a problem?
Eat it!
It's the only way to solve
these types of issues.
The only way.
- Oh, he's probably got those little bird bones.
- Oh, I hate those.
You've those little bird bones that
are gonna cut up my mouth, do you?
- No, I don't have bird bones.
- You better not!
You better not be difficult to eat.
Did you have even think of that?
God, you're selfish!
I hope you don't taste
as selfish as your look.
- Let's eat it.
- Stop!
- Stop!
- Oh, look at him.
