- PS: They were origionally a book series (My mum has them)
Later they cut the series back into 3 movies. Which makes commercial sense I guess, but being spoiled by 9 hours of quality tv it just doesn't do it for me.
And to all who are asking, the TV series and the films are on DVD/BD.
The forthcoming teaser trailer is for the American adaptation of the films, starring Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara.
it doesn't have the feel and ambience and tension of the original movies trailers and the music (if that's even the real movie of the trailer) is ALL WRONG!!
that is a typical "Hollywood Cookie Cutter" trailer!!
:-W ~X( @-) :-q [-X
Casino Royale, Road To perdition and also this movie.
I hope there don't make a tv series from it. I saw 30-45 minutes of the first of 6 episode of the tv serie of the Swedish version. The original movie isn't given yet on tv, this made it dificult to watch. As said in another thread about this movie,i whant give it a change if there give the original movie or give those 6 parts in 6 or 3 weeks on Sunday not in 6 days like there did earlier.
I don't know or i have intrest in this American version, because the fact the orginal not be in English is not the problem.
And I don´t see why it should have the tension, ambience and feel of the ´original´ movies. It´s an adaption of a novel, as were the ´original´ movies. And even so, by no means does it have to deliver the same things as the novel. It just has to be a good film by itself.
I usually hate it when pop music is used in trailers, especially The Big LZ. But this version of Immigrant Song sounds rather good, in fact, ´Come from the land of ice and snow´ has rarely sounded more appropriate.
I especially like the shot of the guy scrambling over the rocks as O sings "Valhalla, I am coming".
I don't think Fincher, Craig & Mara etc will blow the Rapace Tattoo film out the water but if the franchise continues they certainly have more than a chance of improving on those TV movie sequels.
When you have so many scenes edited together at split seconds frame and spit it out in succession; it's NOTHING! It EVOKES NO POWER, NO IMPACT!!
Compare that trailer to the trailer of the 3 Swedish Original films:

The point here is not to make a perfect copy, but to make an adaptation that stands on it's own.
If the point was to remake the original films shot by shot, it would serve no purpose.
If you want a remake like "Quarantine", that serves no purpose at all, and is basicly a poor shot by shot remake of the original... why bother ??
I personally don't think the first film is paticularly good adaptation of the novel despite being a very good film, I might be wrong but Fincher and go will deliver a film more loyal to it's source.
The thing that has been said is if it wasn't for Rapace as Salander this would considerably routine and noting special, just a another mystery thriller and apart from Blomvist nothing paticularly remarkable, it been said that the source material isn't that great and the books are very entertaining if slightly OTT.
I can't imagine Fincher would have attached himself to this if he didn't see something new he could bring to it and that trailer is designed to peak peoples interest not to evoke the film it is, of course that's not the film, check out the trailer to Clooney's The American, if you'd gone by that it was loaded with action instead of a slow meditation which has hardly any action at all. The fast cutting etc is for the trailer to peak the average joe in the street not to satisfy someone like you.
On a serious note, I never thought I'd say this, but Trent Resnor should be ashamed of his butchering of Zeppelin's Immigrant song. Shameful.
Am looking forward to seeing the film though.
I don't really think it's butchered. As a single, it would be horrible. But in the context of the film, it works.
