So why did the sequels never actually get made?
>b-but how abou-
Doesn’t count, not a sequel, not canon, book by a different author, nobody from the original involved.
Did the screenwriter come up with the final scene? It’s fantastic and I was surprised that it didn’t appear in the Swedish film (I haven’t read the book).
I've read the trilogy. That's how the dragon tatoo book ends. It's a great but sad ending.
Dragon Tattoo fincher version is one of my top 5 favourite films of all time. I'd give it a solid 8/10, great film.
>top 5 favourite films of all time
>8/10
I'm a very harsh critic. Most movies are a 5 or 6.
That just means your 6s are 10s and you're just being a crybaby autist trying to be unique. You look stupid.
I don't think it did that well commercially.
It made a profit theatrically and did crazy numbers on VOD. Don’t underestimate how many boomers use VOD religiously.
I honesty don't know, but I thought I read that that was the reason they never followed up was that it didn't make the box office they were hoping for.
I wish the mystery was more interesting. Or, rather, had a more interesting unwinding.
It's an aesthetically-pleasing film, but the plot is a bore.
Wasn't it something really fricking laughable like with Nazis and israelites and whatever? The whole movie is Reddit anyway.
>le goth chick who is le smart and can do everything but still gets overpowered by a fat ass for a side plot that has nothing to do with the main one just for a men are pigs message
I'm against feminism and feminazis but Lisbeth was well written and was an actual strong female character written. She was also played well by Rooney Mara, more so than Noomi Rapace.
She was every woke stereotype rolled into one but because the movie is pre-2010 that doesn't register to you somehow.
>boo hoo "woke"
I can't wait for your generation to grow out of this phase. It's cringe at this point.
>Millenial manchild can't cope with reality
Zoomers are a million times better than millenials and I am one. They're not this fricking attached to goyslop.
>and I am one
I can tell by the learning disability formatting of your post.
>zoomers have 0 personality aside from crying vehemently about the left or right
>this makes them better
Biggest npc generation to ever exist
The author himself is very clear on his political leanings and how that influences the stories he writes.
Then why watch it in the first place, snowflake?
Yes, Stieg Larsson was a massive boomer midwit with a complete black and white worldview.
Cause Fincher is infamous for not being able to commit to anything. See Mindhunter & House of Cards for examples.
It was a tight budget to begin with and Daniel Craig got too big for them to afford. Sony was planning on doing a sequel without him and keeping Rooney Mara but the fourth book screwed up their plans to adapt the second and third into one movie. When they tried to get David Fincher back to direct it he was doing house of cards and said no to the sequel(s) but yes to a Netflix adaptation. Cant remember what made him pull out but that's where I think it all fell apart.
It was casting Craig that sunk the whole project. Guy is a cancer. First killed the biggest franchise of all time (Bond) and this beforehand.
haha what
Don't mind him, that guy is an autist who has been spamming Craig bond hate for months (years?).
Meds. Did you see that last Bond movie he did?
>Meds.
My man you are a million miles from subtle. You keep making that thread about how Craig bond isn't real bond and how DAD is better than Casino Royale etc.
Do you think there's just one person who doesn't like Craig? By your fricking insane mind, it must have been me back in 2006 making all those anti-Craig websites and negative comments. Medication. NOW.
>the lady doth protest too much
Meds, as I said. You one of his buddies from the gay bars he frequents?
protestmind
methinks you doth protest too much
Damn, a whole decade huh.
He's been doing it since at least 2013 but possibly earlier. I wasn't here before that so I wouldn't know but I know his "tier" images.
Did I stutter?
I've really soured on Craig as Bond but I thought he was completely fine as Mikael.
That's the thing. Fine. He was there to capitalize on his newfound fame as ""Bond"" and that's it. I think there's a bunch of actors who'd do a far better job. It fricked up the movies too since he wanted out due to not enough shekels. I say recast but Fincher is an autist.
>Tfw used to dat a gothic girl that looked like Rooney Mara
>Tfw it was the only time in my life when I was happy
>commerical success
Not really
When the Sony had their internal film production emails leak a few years ago it was revealed that both Mara and Fincher were begging and pleading with Sony to make the sequels, but Amy Pascal and other morons at Sony blew them off and treated them like trash. In order to shower money on Adam Sandler and other drek.

It's honestly a miracle Sony has survived for so long with Amy at the helm.
The studio is the definition of 2 steps forward 3 steps back.
US remake is shit, the Swedish original is kino
