All that violence has no point other than itself. David Fincher can not help it. Mara looks great too, but again, there's really no point to her character other then her weirdness.muchanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6937848248469121586.post-56555569613735735942011-09-15T17:31:07.605-07:002011-09-15T17:31:07.605-07:00I'm curious as to why you think the subject ma...I'm curious as to why you think the subject matter isn't above TV-movie material. The content and themes in the books, which I'm sure will get explored extensively in this movie as much as in the Swedish movie, are certainly not run-of-the-mill stuff. If you haven't read the books, do so and you will discover too-hard-core-for-TV subject matter getting tackled head-on in a way that's never been done before. The writing itself is debatable as to how great it is (not that that matters for the movie), but the content is definitely a breath of fresh air, and breathtaking to say to the least.obthavariablenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6937848248469121586.post-32432448149140278802011-09-15T14:35:49.959-07:002011-09-15T14:35:49.959-07:00Good to hear.

Due to some casting, I also think it is going to follow closer to the source material than its predecessor, which is a big plus!Brandonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6937848248469121586.post-20086202876124213762011-09-15T12:44:46.842-07:002011-09-15T12:44:46.842-07:00I liked the score just fine, but I want to wait to...I liked the score just fine, but I want to wait to see how it sounds in the movie. It will certainly be a very high-selling CD/download for a pure score that isn't Danny Elfman or John Williams.Scott Mendelsonhttp://scottalanmendelson.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6937848248469121586.post-22990615619013901572011-09-15T12:38:52.869-07:002011-09-15T12:38:52.869-07:00I'm curious as to what you thought of the scor...I'm curious as to what you thought of the score by Reznor because I've heard great things from other sites.Liam_Honoreply@blogger.com
