According to this article, Where the Wild Things Are is in danger of being scrapped or considerably changed as punishment for not being family-friendly enough.

“Hollywood studio Warner Brothers is considering big changes to the movie after audiences at test screenings complained that the film frightened children and confused adults.” 

The film is directed by Spike Jonze with writing help from Dave Eggers. Not exactly a bunch of amateurs. If you have kids, don’t fret. I'm sure Norbit 2 will make it to theaters without a hitch. Here’s a test-clip from the production. It’s not frightening or confusing, it actually looks great and the dialogue is kinda funny.
