Meatballs and Wild Things filling fall slots

Warner Bros.' Where The Wild Things Are will be released to IMAX theaters on Oct. 16, according to a press release from Imax Corporation, and the Wall Street Journal is reporting that the company is shortly expected to announce that a 3D version of Sony Pictures' Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs will do the same on Sept. 18. Both releases will be simultaneous with their conventional North American openings.
 
The two films will fill the gap between Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which opens in IMAX theaters next Wednesday, July 29, and Disney's A Christmas Carol, starring Jim Carrey, which debuts on Nov. 6.
 
Meatballs is an animated comedy about a scientist who invents a way to make it rain food, based on the book by Judi and Ron Barrett. It stars the voices of Neal Patrick Harris, Anna Farris, and James Caan. It will play in 3D in IMAX and conventional digital 3D theaters.
 
The live-action Wild Things is based on Maurice Sendak's prize winning children's book, and is directed by Spike Jonze, and written by Jonze and Dave Eggars. It stars Katherine Keener, Max Records, Mark Ruffalo, and James Gandolfini.
