wild...ripoffs?


Heard a song about a month ago on the radio I couldn't place it but had heard it before, the DJ said it was Arcade Fire's Wake up from the movie Where the wild things are. I thought, "why are they playing a song from a movie that came out years ago and didn't Eddie Vedder do the whole soundtrack to that movie?". Well I was thinking of another movie with a similar name called Into the Wild , but it got me to thinking of how similar the story lines to both movies are. I haven't seen either movie and haven't read that Jon Krakauer book and may have read Where the wild things are when i was a kid but i sure as hell don't remember it but as much as i can piece together without reading or seeing the movie the only differce in story line is instead of dumb monsters you get Vince Vaughn and a piece of cake instead of wild potato root. Not only are the movies similar but the aforementioned song by arcade fire

has a very similar guitar riff to the QOTSA regular john song, but the biggest rip off has to be Green Day ripping off the guitar solo to 21 guns from Full house.

Whats my point and how does Kimmie Gibbler fit into all this? Well, I know that I will not see any of those movies unless its the late night movie on SuperCine. Decisión crítica was the dubbed movie of the nite last nite, nothing but quality.
