Where the Wild Things Are Trailer

Sometimes, events make me feel as if I’m dead inside, as if there is something so completely wrong with me that I am not fit to be around other humans. The reaction to the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are is one of those times.

I didn’t like the book as a kid. I don’t care that they made a movie. I’m not planning to see it. But everyone else in the online world seems to be misty, gaga, and verklempt about this movie.

When I was watching Titanic with friends, the only highlight was when the boat up-ended and the bodies began falling like sacks of grain. I giggled at the thought of bodies falling like sacks of grain. One friend punched me in the arm. She loved the movie and was probably already crying–I don’t remember. Reading everyone else’s reactions to the Where the Wild Things Are trailer makes me feel exactly how I felt when I realized I was the only one laughing at Titanic.

Am I dead inside? Is there something wrong with me? Or are there others like me out there? Shall we form a support group?
