As the highly anticipated film adaptation for Where The Wild Things Are approaches, director Spike Jonze and design blog Boooooom announced a contest asking fans to relive those childhood nights and sleepovers spent building forts out of pillows, blankets, and whatever they could muster up around their homes.

To enter the contest, just send in a photo, video, blueprint, or even sketch of your fort. Two of the announce prizes include a "special edition Xbox 360 decked out Where the Wild Things Are style" and a bus-shelter size Where the Wild Things Are poster not available in stores.

There aren't any photos of the custom system yet, but I have faith that it will be magnificent -- there's a lot less that can go wrong with it than with the upcoming Xbox 360/PS2/PS3/Wii/DS games based on the film and book's themes and characters.
