hah, meeting canceled.
4. Is KW Max's sister? I think I might have heard that somewhere and it makes sense.
5. Don't you think that the movie veered off from the book in terms of the "going home" scene? Apparently the author was happy with it (he gave it his full blessing) but I feel that the send off scene didn't jive with the book (I think Sendak was being gracious). All the monsters wanted max to stay in the book whereas the movie depicts a scene where most of the monsters want max to leave, some are sad, and maybe one or two want him to stay. I mean, this is all going on in Max's imagination right? Would he really kick himself out?

"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
