Totally, completely, agree with Padre's comment.

Pixar should really hire more women, and the entertainment industry in general needs to quit this "Pixar is god" mentality. I always suspected Pixar to be sexist starting with the two-dimensional love interest in Monsters Inc, continuing with the brain dead/threatening female characters in finding nemo. I lost interest in Pixar completely when they killed off the only girl in UP.

I don't need to wait two years. I already know the story. Two nerdy masculine "emotions" work together in a factory, which is the girl's brain. At some point in the film, one of them will say something like: " Man! Work is tough! Girls are so complicated! Why can't we be in a boy's head, where at least things are stable??"

Pixar is sexist.

"At some point, and this might not exactly come across in the final product, the monsters in Spike Jonze's troubled "Where the Wild Things Are," were supposed to symbolize Max's different emotions."

Uhm, if that didn't come across when you watched it, you weren't paying attention.

Are any female writers going to contribute anything, or is it a sausage fest of men imaging the female mind? I hate that Pixar has roused my suspicion of them now, and my non-existent feminist ire. If they can't see what is wrong with the idea of an all male conception of the female mind , then really, I have no words. I hope female critics skin them alive. Better yet, I hope I'm wrong and there really is significant female contributions to this film. A not just as a muse "I based it on my daughter/wife" bullshit. If you are going INTO A FEMALE'S MIND, you damn well better have significant female input from the minds of females. OMG PIXAR, YOU ARE TURNING ME INTO A FULL BLOWN FEMINIST! I HATE YOU!

Ha, he also describes the new monsters that Mike & Sully meet at college at "unlike anything you've ever seen" so maybe he's just a fan of that phrase?
