I was never a fan of Maurice Sendak’s books (except for “Pierre”, because I identified so strongly with the protagonist….) I never saw the movie but I’m sure today’s “Lio” was much better (it was certainly better than the book!) “Lio” is always a combination of creepy and whimsey, but this one and the one with Lio being a skeleton in the shower seem to be emphasizing the creepy. I wonder if Mark kind of goes in cycles about this?
WOuld love to see the faces of the kids at the preschool I used to work at when I get to the, um, “alternate” ending. One the my favorite books to read

After watching that movie, I think that’s a very real possibility. The movie was that dark and sad, too.

Have some, Lio! It’s real tasty–like roast pork!

Back away very slowly, Lio. Better yet, run like all get out!

This is easily the most disturbing Lio ever. Kudos, Mark.

Best comic meets last years best movie. What a shame Oscar didn’t recognize how great “Where The Wild Things Are” was
