I've read all three books, I've seen all three Swedish adaptions.I used to be of the opinion that American "MOVIE" remakes were always worse, La Femme Nikita, Nightwatch, Let the right one in, spring to mind.especially Nikita, which was a scene by scene rehash.
Having said that, I'm looking forward to this, it seems to be faithful to the story, If by watching this film, it drives more people to pick up the books who otherwise may not have done so, well, that can only be a good thing....
Their fundamental problem is that it didn't need to be remade. The books are AWSOME!!!!! And the Swedish film version is REALLY good. Saying that Daniel Craig was a good choice for Mikael Blomkvist and thankfully they kept Lisbeth Salander nice and freaky. But in the Swedish version, she was kept freaky and sexy at the same time. They just need to keep the bad guys jerk factor up, not just the fact that they are not nice people. I think I'll watch it though. Great story.
So a book that was made to a TV series in Sweden, then edited into a feature film is now being remade by Hollywood into mainstream movie. I hope they know what there doing because if they fuck this up they are going to piss a lot of people off! Also, I know it probably doesn't happen but the part when he says "You know what to do" should be followed by her beating that bastard to a bloody pulp or she would of in my version. It'll be something to see after Christmas at least.
I just don't get why they didn't get Noomi Rapace to play her again. She speaks perfect English. And I really doubt that this actor will be better, she could be, but Rapace's performance was one of the main reasons the original films were so popular.
I've read the books and I've watched the original Swedish films but I'm still looking forward to this. The first film is incredibly overrated because of Noomi Rapace's performance. She's brilliant (and so is Michael Nyquist for that matter) but I didn't think the film was particularly good. The pacing was terrible (it was one of the book's greatest strengths) and it felt like a made for tv production at times. I'm not a fan of remakes as a rule, but David Fincher is brilliant so I'm hopeful.
@efsb So it aired as a multi parter on Swedish tv? If they cut a lot of footage to make it a feature it certainly explains why the pacing was so messed up.
I loved the original Girl with the dragon tattoo and the girl who played with fire and im guessing i will enjoy the girl who kicked the hornets nest or whatever its called all 3 of them are compelling and good but i think they should have just left it if you dont want to watch the swedish one with subtitles just watch the english dubbed one it'll be much better than this adaptation , in my opinion that is.
when i heard they were doing a hollywood remake i was worried because the original was so good but i think this may end up being better since there's some stuff in it that they left out of the swedish one
how can people comment about a film that's not released yet. when i learned that david fincher was directing my heart skipped a beat because this type of film suits his dark style, just look at zodiak, if ever there was a 'hollywood' director that could do this justice its him
looks good in a Hollywood way the Swedish films are good but it is nice to relax in your own language. Especially if like me you need to rely on the subs. Salander looks good perfect just as i had her.
looks better than i thought it would, but still i wish people would learn to except foreign film. remakes like this are destroying the chances of people understanding that more than just england and america make movies
So many small minded people being prejudice towards a film they haven't even seen yet. Why don't you haters go watch it, you may even prefer it to the original... Just a thought.
The thing is, though, people who've seen the original already know the ending of the remake, and so the mystery and surprise won't be there. Plus, Hollywood will inevitably omit ALL the sexual elements that the original had. They'll keep the violence, though.
@CharGuitarGirl I agree, I loved the original but I will also give ths a go. if it is shit you can always walk out but I think there were some elements of the book that the original missed, maybe they will get them here.
@armandin2048 Exactly my thinking.. The books are great & the original film is very good but its far from perfect. Im interested to see Finchers adaptation of it. I'm optimistic it will be awesome!
Yeah, I do find it a little strange to recreate a fairly recent successful film. But if he's done it well, what's the problem? I don't turn down any good movies.
Looks good, It will have to be to compare well against the original ground breaking cinema introduction of Lizbeth, and the original subtitled for English speakers. The story has a strong narrative, and this looks like they were able to learn from the mistakes of Let me in - the American version of "Let the right one in". And at least they haven't changed the location as far as I know
I love the books, didn't enjoy the original movies. Everything about them was cheap and grey. And ugly!
This looks a lot better. And why is being Bond any better than this role? This is a great role for any actor. Lisbeth looks great too - glad they didn't choose a Hollywood glamour-puss.
Fincher is a good director, but what was he thinking? Did he really think he could do this justice? The only interest I have in seeing this is out of a morbid curiosity at how badly it is compared to the original.
