[anniewalkama]

What did you think of the movie? I loved it!! She is my Lisbeth Salander, hard, moody but vulnerable inside

[ChrisStuckmann]

@anniewalkama I loved it, my review is a video response to this video!

[Edificios1]

Por favor! Que alguien le dé un espacio en la Televisión a este imbécil, para que no ocupe más espacio en la web.

[ozoshah]

you are too old for such a haircut

[tokzan]

It's weird how David Fincher says he never have seen the swedish movie, when the american version is sooooooooooooooo alike the swedish version, I doubt that the book can give so much information that two movies use pretty much the exact same scenery, streets, buildings etc. B U L L S H I T

[poshprincesspalace]

christopher plumber, daniel craig....um are you gonna mention rooney mara? she's kinda important.

[thewhost]

the movie was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[killerdg13]

i know plenty of girls with dragon tattoos so what makes her so special

[bgirl0184j]

It is a remake of a movie that has already been made be it 2year or 10 years... It's not being nerdy but stating fact and everybody it is just a movie even though I agree the Swedish one was really good...

[Creighla]

quit calling it a remake!!! in order for a movie to be a remake there has to be another movie made ten or more years ago, uneducated youtube nerds. this is just another version, another interpretation of a book that is kind of based on real-life experience. i have watched both. to tell you the truth, i kind of like rooney's lisbeth better than the swedish one.

[tokzan]

@Creighla "If you have something remade, you ask someone to make it again, especially in a way that is better than before." Even if David made another version of a movie that already exists, "cause it's going more after the book" it's a remake... And I'm sure if the swedes never made the movie to start with, he wouldn't make an american version. The americans ALWAYS americanize everything that's doing well outside the U.S.

[demonDUCKisHUNGRY]

@tokzan The american producers had he rights to adapt the book before the Swedish film was released.

[tokzan]

@demonDUCKisHUNGRY Ohhhhh, so you mean that should make it okay? Sweden was already making the swedish version - or already finished the first movie when Fincher started to think about making an american version. If I was a film director I would never have made a movie after a book if I knew that someone else was there first, well... atleast not in some years. It's 2 years bewteen the release of the swedish movie and the american movie. 2 Y E A R S!

[demonDUCKisHUNGRY]

@tokzan Its really not the worst thing in the world, especially when the two versions are very different, especially in their portrayal of Lisbeth. Whereas Noomis was just an angry goth-punk computer hacker and Mara was an emotionally cold person who resented people and didn't dress according to style, she dressed to tell people to Stay the fuck away from her. Very different, and much closer to the books description of the character (physically too).

[tokzan]

@demonDUCKisHUNGRY Haha, of course it's not the worst thing in the world but it's still pissing me off, and maaaany other people, but few americans since it's their country that wants to americanize everything :) You know, I wouldn't have cared at all if America was first but they weren't, like many other movies. I wouldn't have cared if they made a american version of this movie 20 years after the swedish one, but we're still just talking about 2 little years. Pathetic

[RikerRichard]

The Swedish Lisbeth was exactly how I envisioned her when reading the book, the Hollywood version is not, otherwise the other characters are far superior to the Swedish film.

[rockaroundtheclock56]

Why do the Americans change Daniel Craig's surname entirely by pronouncing it "Creg"? It's annoying :(

They should all take a trip downtown and get some elocution lessons!!!!!

[christinecountry1]

It has already been made in to a great movie. This is just a remake.

[ChrisStuckmann]

@christinecountry1 Actually it adapts the book, its not a remake.

[christinecountry1]

The original movie was made in 2009. The Swedish film production company Yellow Bird created film versions of the all Millennium Trilogy books. Including The girl with the Dragon Tattoo (but because people are lazy and did not want to read sub titles. It has been remade.) I am sure that they did a great job but it really looks like the original movie almost frame for frame. I have not seen it yet so take it with a grain of salt.

[RosieSquall]

@ChrisStuckmann It IS a remake. There's already a swedish movie.

[Mistaken4starz]

@ChrisStuckmann so they say, but having watched both.. there are quite a lot of shots that are exactly the same. Coincidence?

[AmbivalenceChaotic]

@christinecountry1

Actually, the Swedish film was a pretty bad translation if you've read the book. The second one was better.

[gurlush101]

@AmbivalenceChaotic can i read it online i want to read it.....pls can you tell me

[AmbivalenceChaotic]

@gurlush101 Sorry, don't know.

[etiscool1]

@christinecountry1 You can call it a remake if you like, but it's more than "just a remake". This ain't your average low-effort remake. This is a "remake" with love put into it by none other than David Fincher.

[TheBenj2011]

I watched the pre-screening of this movie yesterday, December 19, starring Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara...and it was riveting and nerve-pounding...I kept wanting more! This movie, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo(American version), rocks...Rooney Mara as Lisbeth rocks and is the ideal front runner and main character of this must see movie of the year! The chemistry between Craig and Mara sizzles and they're the perfect duo for this soon to be blockbuster mystery-thriller movie!

[Avenger2680]

2:05 = 8 minutes?

[ChrisStuckmann]

@Avenger2680 It's a review of the eight minute trailer that was released dude.

[sor8an]

@ChrisStuckmann that's fucking dumb.

[lollipopfop]

I saew about ten minutes of the Swediah film, felt I figured out the mystery( or at least a big part of it in that a certain person was probably alive, and her uncle an idiot that thinks that a murderer would try to frighten him with bluebells) and I stopped watching. But maybe I would have been surprised.

[toonimp]

looks like a giant peice of shit about an emo lesbian. my opinion.

[RosieSquall]

@toonimp You should read the novels. My opinion.

[LaserBeam002]

I read the novel "The girl with the dragon tattoo" a few months ago then last week bought "the girl that played with fire". Two of the very best novels I have ever read. Ablolutely fantastic. It is such a shame that the author did not live to see the success of his amazing work. Such a shame.

[slea79]

@LaserBeam002 you must not have read many good books

[LaserBeam002]

@slea79 For your information I am an avid reader. I am one of those people who perfer books and newspapers over TV. I assume you did not think much of the millenium series. I for one love the series. Now who anointed you the all supreme judge and jury of good literature???

[joaniecheriezz]

the trailer was fucking awesome!!!!

[minglis88]

the trailer is better than the entire Swedish trilogy lol

[iSuRGiCaL]

Rooney is gonna kill it

[mastermetal777]

@iSuRGiCaL Why? Just because she's no Noomi Rapace? Because she's mostly been in comedies and not dramas? Don't bring down an actor just because of their typecast. You might be surprised.

[iSuRGiCaL]

@mastermetal777 Haha i think theres been a misunderstanding.When i said "kill it" i meant shes going to blow people away and open alot of eyes to how amazing she is.

Trust me,nothing this girl does surprises me

[mastermetal777]

@iSuRGiCaL Ah, I see. Well then, I'm glad we're on the same page about that. She's gonna do great regardless, from what I've seen in the trailers.

[iSuRGiCaL]

@mastermetal777 besides being an amazing person shes also incredibly dedicated to her craft.

Dec 21st the cats coming out of the bag

[akiokunguitar]

Really digged the 30 second TV spot # 2 trailer! Short and effective! Goin ape shit looking forward to this film, I mean come on, Fincher? Pshyeah! Fuckin awesome!

[digitalzim]

whats behind the door?

[domo641]

the trailer was amazing not superior to the teaser but still pretty damn good and the shots in this trailer are amazing also Trent Reznors Score is fantastic

[iliveforhim1976]

This is NOT a REMAKE. It is taken directly from the source material. If you don't understand the difference, look it up. Again, NOT a remake.

[dreamtwilightlife]

This review just totally got me pumped for this movie :)

[leeloo1967]

~Whenever David Fincher directs a film he never disappoints......I gotta see this movie~!!

Great job Chris!!

[folladordeprostis]

Hope is good as the swedish movie

[sfighter991]

I just saw the trailer myself Chris, and it does look like a good movie. I still don't think it'll be superior to the Swedish film. I love the cast and acting.

[Spectre1545]

The swedish wasnt a good adaptation of the book.I have faith in Fincher.

[Janlg10]

Even if this movie is gonna be good. it represents everything that is wrong with hollywood right now. this book has been made into a good sweedish movie in the year 2009. Hollywood puts out a remake 2012. This is so unnecessary.

[TheBSKILL]

salander is one of my favorite characters.. so pumped fincher is attached to the remake.

[peteagassi]

What did you think of the music? You didn't say anything about it. 

[Larrymoviedude9909]

Have you seen the Swedish films?

[Larrymoviedude9909]

Have you seen the Swedish film's?

[LittleVoiceReviews]

wasent that book allready made into a movie!

[THEANnetWork]

where can i watch the trailer 

[TimbucktwofilmsRoman]

watch the swedish version...fincher looks like he borrowed a lot of the look from the original...and it was one of my favourite movies of the year last year

[Timeforthaunted]

This movie is going to rock. I love the original BUT I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE FINCHER'S VERSION. Yup, had to scream to say that

[domo641]

Chris, you should definitely look up 2011 The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo score there is only one song released but it is fantastic

[domo641]

the Swedish films are bad quality the cinematography looks bad but overall out of the three films the only one that stands out is The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo the other two were nothing like the book. I have faith that the American adaptions will be much better.

[sfighter991]

@domo641 You have 0 love for filmmaking. lol

[domo641]

@sfighter991 Actually i do have love for film making i didn't say i hated the Swedish version of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo i said the cinematography was bad but the movie was good much better than the sequels that came after so you cant tell me that i don't have a love of films.

[THEANnetWork]

@sfighter991 the swedish films cinematography was pretty mediocre and i did not enjoy the sequels and the american version will probably will be really good

[sfighter991]

@THEANnetWork To each his own, I love the film regardless. I didn't see the sequels, but seeing some shots from the other films in a Lisbeth Salander tribute video, they look low grade comparing them to the original.

I saw the trailer recently on Clevver Movies, and though I still have doubts that it'll be as good as the Swedish version, it does look like a pretty good film.

[leeloo1967]

I saw the trailer Chris & youre so right that this film is gonna be fantastic!!!

~I cant wait to see it~

[MaxieMagyx]

I'm really looking forward to this. I agree with lordtufty something, the swedish version wasn't amazing. And when the original fails, you can always hope that Hollywood does something different =)

[BiggestATLAfan]

dude! WATCH THE ORIGINAL SWEDISH MOVIES! theyre amazing........……enough said

[kassemir]

No offense Chris, but you really owe it to your self to watch the original Swedish version of the film, because it is superb, and I really REALLY don't think the American version will top it.

Also, Noomi Rapace is Lisbeth Salander, I don't care who they cast in the American version, she won't be able to top Rapace!!

So Chris, get a copy of the Swedish version and watch it!!!

[TyJensenable]

I seen the movies and I'm not interested in reading the books although I'm a huge reader. Fire was good and the other two were okay. I think I will see the remake but I seriously doubt I will see it on the big screen and I think it's silly it's being released close to Christmas.

[futurestoryteller]

I think David Fincher sold his soul to the devil. Because even when I can't see what's so great about a movie people are showering him with praise. When you take the original movie into account, I'm sure this will honestly be good. Even if I think the whole idea of it is damn silly. If I was doing a movie set in another country I'd use their native language - and of course they *already made that movie.*

[themenaceanish]

European movies suck. I don't wanna sit for two hours reading subtitles. I even bet $1000 that David Fincher's version will be better than the original lol!

[Colechamdiceman]

WTF??? The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is already out.. is this a remake??

[BlazeTheMovieFan]

You know, now I'm actually looking forward to this movie.

[TheTrueDimension]

The European version of the movie was beyond amazing and I really don't know how they will top that. But than again, we are talking about Fincher here. 

[lordtufty]

@TheTrueDimension I personally didn't like the Swedish version that much (and I am Swedish myself). I am sure fincher will do a better job. I think that the lead Swedish actors were miscast

[cooluke11]

Have you seen the original movie that came out a few years ago? If not, you should review that in anticipation!

[bebergator]

teaser was amazing so i cant wait for this

[LeDigital1]

Thanks for reviewing that. I can"t wait!

[TheBoysdontcry96]

Glad to hear this. So pumped. Rooney Mara POWA!

[skahtay16]

Beyond excited for this movie. Thought the book was great but I think Fincher is going to take it and make it his own while still staying true to the feel of the novel. Could not be more excited for this.

[RequiemForMyDreams13]

Rooney Mara is hot haha

[thekieranstoker12]

the original was amazing

[inception4ever]

Cannot wait to see this!!! Still, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is still my most anticipated film for the rest of the year.

[LucasW180]

@inception4ever agreed

[CuriousGeorgeMonkey9]

@inception4ever Just screened "Tinker Tailor Soldier spy" yesterday. Easily one of the year's best.

[Nezluv123]

What in gods name is this movie about ?

[xr3verendx]

oh shit david fincher this shit is gonna be good

[JAHubGoodvideos]

Did they show any of Trent Reznor's score?

[sfighter991]

Nice Trailer review Chris,

I own and seen the original Swedish film and I absolutely love that movie, did you see the original? If not I recommend it .

I did see a smaller trailer for the David Fincher film, and even though I have doubts it'll be superior to the Swedish film, I was impressed with the cast and the pacing, doesn't look like "shot for shot". I'll wait for the 8 minute and give you my opinion.

[84C4]

@sfighter991 is the american version based on the movie or the novel? i havent read the novel so idk how diferent it is from the 1st movie but i liked the idea of a fresh start from the novel a lot more than just another swedish movie remade in america like "let the right one in". no point in making a movie that's already been done.

[sfighter991]

@84C4 Lets just hope that it's based on the novel. I haven't read the book either.

[TheOneTrueChad]

@84C4 Let the Right One In is based on a novel too, and the american version could be seen as a retelling of the novel as much a remake of the swedish film. And having read the book TGWTDT and seen the movie, I hope this is more a new adaptation of the book than a remake. The original disappointed me and made some changes that I didn't quite agree with.

[moovieman222]

Great trailer review!

[PatTheFilmGuy]

Great video man! I can't wait to see this!

[giodashorts]

Have you seen the Swedish version of the film?

[MrFuckintheass]

This guy is so ass

[SpecialMark]

So it might be as good if not better than the original ? Does it look like it will be as intense as the original?

[FilmRecall]

Rooney Mara is the main actor. Her short role was great in The Social Network, which is why Fincher wanted her back for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The Swedish version was fantastic, but nothing that Fincher can't expand upon and make better. Cool review and I'm glad to hear that it's looking great.

[dsclubhouse1]

yea I am reading the book now

heard straw dogs was awful

anyway thanks for the short but nice review of the 8 minute trailer

[NotCharlesMorse]

Damn Chris. I want your shirt.

[donniedarkodevotte]

Eight minute trailer? That is nuts. Thanks for sharing. I love the original and will be seeing this. Oh and by the way, first comments are for losers.

[MrFuckintheass]

first
