This looks surprisingly AWESOME.

[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]I think it needs to be pointed out that this trailer contains a cover of Led Zepplin by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails with Karen-O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs on vocals. I mean holy ****.Niff_T
That's the worst part of the trailer if you ask me.
:?
Dude won an Oscar for his last score; it was also his first score, which he started and completed in three weeks. Him > You. :P Also sammy, two of those three movies are highly rated. Only Aliens 3 got a negative reception, so fair point on that one i guess. Still, he has a good track record.Also sammy, two of those three movies are highly rated.

Panic Room isn't rated very highly. The less said about Alien 3, the better. The Game is probably my least favorite of his. In fact, I would say I hate it. It has one of the most implausible endings I've ever seen.
I'm kind of mixed on Fincher as a whole. I love Zodiac and The Social Network. I like Se7en a lot, though I like it less and less with each viewing. I think Fight Club is one of the most overrated movies. Benjamin Button was just utterly forgettable. Panic Room is just laughably bad.

Panic room has a solid 77% on RottenTomatoes. I'd consider that a decent movie if you ask me.i loved the foreign versions (though im not a fan of subtitles and the translations were a bit weak at times.), and this director its great. so this looks really promising. also karen-o = awesome

I'm really failing to see what was interesting about that trailer. Though I never had much interest when I saw the trailers for the European ones a year or two a ago either.
It's largely positive. :/ The point is simple; it's not a bad film. Why even argue? I just said he's an awesome director. Any need?77% with a 6.9 average rating ≠ Highly rated.

I'm not going to watch that trailer (far too many scripts running on that page).
Either way, I'm still looking forward to the film.
Remakes of foreign films are rarely good (especially when the film is only two years old). I'll keep low expectations for this and maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised

There is a direct Youtube link if its more to your liking. (Just search The girl with the dragon tattoo red band trailer)
In defense of David Fincher, he does claim in several interviews that the studio destroyed what he had originally shot for Alien 3. How true that is, I'm not sure, but that is what he claims.
In any case I'm quite looking forward to this. I'm a big fan of the books and a big fan of David Fincher.
I dislike them protraying the goth girl being having troubles. :( I don't like those stereotypes. Goth is a style. And people should not abuse it and use it in the stereotype.magicalclick
not sure if youve read the books. or seen the films. but she really isnt portrayed as what i would call goth in the movies. id give it a chance. quite good.
Looks good. I still need to watch the original version. I don't mind watching movies in subs it's just that after reading the epic books, I thought the movie would disappoint like some other films i.e. Let the right one in (Original swedish movie, haven't seen the american remake).
Some friends of mine won't be happy over this. They loved the Swedish originals and will dislike the American remakes. It was the same case with Let The Right One In and Let Me In.

I actually just read the book and was thoroughly impressed. I was planning to check out both versions of the movie.

I've been skeptical of this movie for a while despite the director and cast, but I really didn't like that trailer. I'm hoping that the idea of "trailers don't always reflect the movie" will be true here.
Passing on this. I liked it better when it was the original work. Why does Hollywood feel the need to **** on any successful foreign film? This fast track remake is completely unnecessary.
i heard great things about the books. I then proceeded to watch the first movie. was iffy at first, but i stuck with it. Fantastic. I am now in the process of starting the books (will read them before i watch the other 2 movies).
----now, concerning the actual topic, Hollywood WHAT THE ****? Seriously, think up your own stuff and quit doing remakes. washed up hacks.
Lately, i have found Foreign and indie movies to be a thousand times better than the dredge hollywood is putting out.
[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]David Finches is always awesome!sammyjenkis898Panic Room Alien 3 The Game The Game felt like a good movie because of the ending(everything else was ok). I liked Panic Room, what was wrong with it ? I haven't seen Alien 3, so, I have no say. Any way, David Fincher is a genius. He's one-of-the-only directors' today that is still capable of making great movies.
Regarding the trailer, I absolutely loved it and I have been waiting a while for it. The moment I heard he was making it, it was automatically my anticipated movie of the year. I love the casting. The film looks like it may be as dark(knowing David Fincher, it may be darker) than the original -- I just love what I'm seeing overall, can't wait.

The ending was the worst part.
As for Panic Room: sledgehammer plus face. That's what was wrong with it.
Mainly because it was done so well already. This version just seems like nothing but a cash-in; if it was such a hot property, why didn't Hollywood do it first, rather than wait for the first set of movies to do great?I dont get why people are giving Hollywood a hard time about doing something "original." When the foregin film was based off a novel and there wasn't "original"

Only the first film in that set is even worth watching though. They slashed the budget and handed it over to a soap opera director for the second and third. I don't see how fans of the books could complain that they're getting quality adaptations from Fincher with a score done by Trent Reznor...I dont get why people are giving Hollywood a hard time about doing something "original."

Yeah, though it may be a cash-in (in the same vein as Let Me In) at least there's a good opportunity to improve upon the poor standards set.I dont get why people are giving Hollywood a hard time about doing something "original."
