I too would also rather see focus on year zero, and HDA! Im personally not thrilled with a hollywood version of Dragon Tattoo *cough no orginality cough* but since its Fincher, it will be worth a look.

call me crazy but I am more concerned with Trent releasing MUSIC with VOCALS with NIN as opposed to acting in vampire movies, writing tv shows, HTDA or scoring film after film. It is time for NIN

I dont think a mini series based on an album that came out 4 years ago will all of a sudden find its way to HBO. It was a joke. Remember the rumors about Year Zero 2? that was only 3 years ago

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Year Zero is a great album, and I hope that more people will discover it after the launch of the TV show.

Don't believe everything you read.

i was reading the closer lyrics...

Been following NIN since 90 and the year zero concept has enveloped me.....I hope this is true.....loved the concept.....loved how the RIAA sued for the leaks when TR was the one who leaked his own shit....just brilliant.


what a mind.

I'll take YZ over ALVH any day of the week.

Great news

Currently reading ALVH in English language nevertheless, it's worthy, entertaining.

It was a NY Times bestseller and it got great reviews.

yay! cant wait!

Patiently anticipating the YZ mini series. Don't rush.

It's not really a remake but a different adaptation of the original novel. The previous movie changed many things from the novel and this new adaptation is going to keep many things that the previous one didn't, and at the same time will change a few others.

Same story with "Let The Right One In." There's no point in remaking the film or "attempting to re-interpret the source material" so soon after the last movie came out aside from making money off of something that has proven to make money.

Then again, I MIGHT be wrong, and it could be a very different and artistic remake, but I doubt it. I like a lot Fincher and all, but his decision to remake the movie definitely made him lose a lot of cool points for me. The Swedish Films were excellent, they don't need to be redone.

I was talking to a guy raving about "Let Me In" and I told him he should have seen the original first. Then he told me he didn't care about crappy Swedish movies, because he's not Swedish and can't be bothered to read subtitles. I think this is the attitude with a lot of American Remakes, aside from adding American faces and American names, and spending 3 times as much more money to make and in turn make 10 times the profit. In some cases, Hollywood actively tries to suppress knowledge of the original. (I took a film class on the Fantastic Film genre, and we had a some readings that gave examples on how they would do this...but I can't find the pdfs at the moment)

This issue hits me harder because I'm trying to be a film maker, and would hate to see someone take my work, dump money and famous people in it, then take the credit and make more money off of it while I'm still unknown and unrecognized.

I strongly disagree with your assertion. Fincher is one of the few directors I *would* want working on this. The screenwriter (Steven Zaillian) has done some amazing work and the cast looks fantastic. Trent & Atticus are scoring it as well, so looking forward to the tone of the film.

An English adaptation would bring the story to a far wider audience. I expect it will easily stand on its own merit allowing both movies to compliment each other. It's also something I want to see.

So, saying he's lost "cool points" for doing so, is absurd.

Those movies hardly went unrecognized. In the wise words of James Cameron speaking to paparazzi asking about how to get into film: "stop fucking around and make a movie".
