Has there ever been a more widely accepted remake than this? What excites me most, other than how amazing Rooney Mara looks as Lisbeth, is the fact that David Fincher is releasing two films in as many years, since we all know how meticulous the director has been with his other, earlier films. And, okay, Fincher and Mara (and others) have made it clear their adaptation of Stieg Larsson's novel differs from Niels Arden Oplev's international smash. I love the original film trilogy -- although I feel like the first is the best in the series -- but is it rude to indicate that it's Fincher's version that makes me want to (finally) read the novels ahead of time?
