    Went to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo today

    pretty good murder-mystery story. I would recommend seeing it. Didn't know what to expect, but it was pretty dang good.

    thinkin' i might wanna read the books before the next 2 movies come out.

    would you believe that they changed the main character (rooney mara) from this:




    to this:

    The chick in the Swedish original seemed to be a little more extreme looking from what I remember.

    I imagine it was totally inferior to the original

    I loved the original Swedish trilogy, no interest in seeing the remake.

    I saw the Swedish original, it was a great flick, would like to see the new one and see how it compares.

    The actress is one of the daughters from the NY Giants Mara family. Her Grandfather was Wellington Mara.

    The movie is better with the sub titles. The dub version sucks. Pretty intense movie.

    I liked both the original Swedish version and the remake. Did anyone else think the opening credits animation/music combination in the remake was incredible?

    Ya, Trent Reznor is a master at openings/audio. The beginning of se7en is still one of the best ever.

    Rooney Mara stole the show (and Daniel Craig was excellent). Her sex scene with Daniel was just so hot even though there wasn't a huge amount of nudity.

    Definitely worth seeing and I'm a critic.

    Completely agree, they were fantastic, reminded me a lot of Se7en which I also liked a lot. Fincher is my favorite director out there right now.

    Thx for the info. I'll prob wait for the DVD. Saw the original trilogy subtitled. The first part was one of the best murder mystery movies that I have seen.

    Couldn't agree more. Fincher is in his own league.

    Other grandfather is Art Rooney, Sr. of the Steelers' Rooneys. True NFL royalty pedigree FWIW.
