I have read the books. I have watched the Swedish movies of the trilogy. If you are able to rent the Swedish movies, do it. They are fantastic. You have a choice of reading subtitles or watching a dubbed English version. Michael Nygvist and Noomi Rapce did a wonderful job as the main characters of Mikael and Lisbeth. Rapce was a bad ass in these movies. I will be heading to the movie theater on Friday afternoon to watch The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. In this movie, the main characters are Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara. An added bonus is Christopher Plummer. Plummer is one of my favorite actors. He plays Henrik Vanger in the newest version.
I have read that this movie is a bit long, but it stays true to the book. I like movies more when they don't change what was written in the book. I'm hope I like the US version as much as the Swedish version.

I am going to see this on New Year's Eve. I am going to block your tweets and blog tomorrow...at least until I see it ;-)
I mentioned I saw it on Twitter Thursday. No worries. I didn't spoil it for anyone. :)
