An adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s beloved childhood book Where the Wild Things Are hit movie theaters recently. How awesome is this movie? Check out the trailer here. As you may know, Where the Wild Things Are is the story of Max, a little boy who is sent to bed without dinner for being naughty. Once in his room, he creates his own world: a forest with wild creatures that crown him as their ruler. The story is full of creativity, imagination, and love, and it will be awesome to see director Spike Jonze bring it to life on the big screen.

Where the Wild Things Are would make an excellent party theme full of creatures, mischief, and wild things for Halloween this year.  And if  you somehow have made it this far without reading the book, check it out on Amazon.  It is truly a classic in the best sense of the word. You can also get the Where the Wild Things Are soundtrack and let your kids do a wild dance.

This summer, Regal Entertainment Group is offering a Free Family Film Festival…what’s that price?  I’d say pretty perfect at FREE!  During the nine-week festival, Regal Cinemas will show select G & PG movies on Tuesdays and Wednesdays  @ 10 am.  With movies that range from Horton Hears A Who to Inkheart, there is a great selection on offer.  Since 1991, Regal has provided this service to the community, and best of all it’s FREE!  Take advantage of this Festival this summer at the Theater’s Box Office on the day of the show.
