I really hope David Fincher does the adaptations of the sequels to the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. The first movie and book were great, but they got far better, imo. The 2nd was wild and completely unhinged. I would love to see it adapted in Fincher's style.
It’s 9 am and I’m still up because I got sucked into a very climatic scene in the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and I just could not put the book down. And then I happened to get drawn into a discussion with a friend about why it isn’t okay for Rooney Mara to play Tiger Lily in a new Peter Pan film simply because “some” natives are light skinned.
I’m also just realizing the odd connection between these two, since Rooney Mara played Lisbeth Salander.
Finishing up the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo right now. I think this will also be the next commentary track that I watch. I would love to know David Fincher's process for this film. He's one of my favorite directors. He has an amazing way with characters and storytelling.
