But it's not full of blood, gore, vampires etc.

I stopped watching for various reasons after season 3, so when we're at it. Is there *any* sensible explanation that at least until then everybody, really *everybody* who got shot, bit a bullet in the ABDOMEN? Nobody got shot in the head later?http://www.filmmusic.pl - Polish Film Music Review Website -

At least one person got shot in the head later. No blood.
Actually there was but you couldn't exactly see much. -

Me too. I'll likely enjoy it more than the original film's score... I've never really understood what all the fuss is about with that score?
Context is most of it, for me. I don't listen to it a lot on its own, but there's some very striking choices in the picture. Types of music you don't expect when they come.A butterfly thinks therefore I am -

Ah, gotcha.
I must admit I've not seen the film, so there's no context for me. -

True, it's going to be inferior no matter what, and of course very very different. Soderqvist's universe for the film is very hard to even near. Meh.
How is it going to be inferior? Matt Reeves said he was doing an adaptation of the book, not redoing the original film's screenplay and visual set ups. I'm not defending the remake, it's just I'm tired of hearing people dismiss these remakes before they're released. Granted, a lot of them are bad but some turn out to be decent. Even rarer to see some great remakes.
But there is one remake I'm sure people are going to view as pointless: David Fincher's Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (also a Swedish movie based on a best-selling novel). Apparently, they're shooting the remake primarily in Sweden and have the actors use Swedish accents. What's the point of a remake if you can't update it or give your own interpretation?http://unsungfilmscores.blogspot.com/ -- My film/TV/game score review blog -

If you're updating it to contemporary times, which they did, it's interesting to see Hitchcock's editing and framing in such a setting. Whether it's dated or not. As it came up, I don't think it was.I am extremely serious. -

It seems such a pointless exercise, tampering with something that was never broken, inserting an unnecessary masterbation scene notwithstanding, a frame for frame remake where the original score still fitted like a glove was, to me, pointless. This is time and money that would have been better spent on making something original.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I'm not going to completely dismiss the Tattoo remake, if only because Fincher is directing it and he's assembled a great cast like Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara and Robin Wright. But I wonder just how Fincher is going to make this his own film, and not ape the original.http://unsungfilmscores.blogspot.com/ -- My film/TV/game score review blog -

1. Cause the original was very genuine and well, brilliant in many aspects including its music.
2. Cause 99% of remake suck ass.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Far easier explanation: Americans and Brits in general tend to hate subtitles.

Why ... it gives us that noticably missing masterbation scene, of course! What would this cinematic wonder be without someone wanking it? [/HEAVY SARCASM]The views and opinions of Ford A. Thaxton are his own and do not necessarily reflect the ones of ANYONE else. -

lol, Erik! Well it's only a brief sample of the score, so we'll see. I must say, though, I like what I'm hearing so far even if it's a Lost cousin.
It's good to hear Giacchino's voice again; I just hope he's coming back a bit fresher! I'm of the opinion that his perhaps overwhelming workload caused the general quality of his work to fade a bit in 2009. -

MG has said Lost is "his" sound. While I've got no problem with it I'd like to hear something along the lines of MoH again from him. -
