Spike Jonze Wild Things-Watch, Vol. XXIV. Perhaps the City of Ember Blowjob Train was good for something other than fanboy condescension after all: A few of the bloggers on the journey to Comic-Con had a word with Ember producer Gary Goetzman, whose Tom Hanks-owned Playtone shingle is also among the interests behind the forever-delayed Where the Wild Things Are. Goetzman assured his interrogators that the troubled Spike Jonze production, which Warners recently pulled off its upcoming release slate, is coming along just fine; those rumours of a lousy performance by young Max Records and Jonze potentially losing the film are “100% untrue.” “I think that Warner Bros.’ vision and Spike Jonze’s vision may be a little different,” Goetzman said, also insisting that Jonze retains final cut. “Warner Bros. has no intention of bringing down the hammer on anyone.” Here’s hoping they can continue this chat on the Wild Things Train to Comic-Con in 2010.
