Apparently that clip from Where the Wild Things Are is a real piece of footage from the film. If you have not yeat seen it, you can check it out below, but before watching I would recommend reading this description by Moriarty from Ain't It Cool News who saw a version of the film, because without his insight I don't think I ever would have posted it since it does look like a very well made fake.

I wish I could be more specific, but because of how I saw it, I can’t offer any sort of real review. I can tell you that there’s something odd about the clip above. The Wild Thing in that clip is Carrol, played in the version I saw by James Gandolfini. That is most definitely NOT Gandolfini’s voice in that clip though. But it’s a very finished piece of film, because in the rough footage, none of the Wild Things have articulated faces. The costumes were all built to have immobile features that would be replaced in post-production by CGI, and it looks like this clip has had that work done on it.
