The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo...

[Brock Vond]

I've been very busy so if this was already discussed... <apologies>

Been meaning to ask what p-listers thought of The Girl with The Dragon
Tattoo (Swedish Title: Men That (Who?) Hate Women)...

Could there be any more of a difference in title quality in all of
translation... 

I liked the 1st one so much, mainly because unlike its not Deep-Lit... Just
(in my opinion) a great plot...

Anyway.. I liked the first one so much that I ordered the UK version of The
Girl Who Played with Fire because I didn't want to wait.  (Irresponsible)

Anyone seen the Movie Trailers for the Swedish film?  I think they nailed
the Journalist Guy... He's exactly how I pictured Blomkvist, but the chick
is not at all what I envisioned for Salander.
