FINCHER/SONY FIGHT OVER RUNTIME WHILE DRAGON TATTOO VIRAL TURNS SCAVENGER HUNT + NEW VIDEO

Prediction:

Sony will give in and let his theatrical cut be 2 hrs. and 45 minutes long......................with the full three hour cut on the home video release.

I thought all these zillion dollar grossing three hour movies would have put this type of argument to bed by now.

I hope Fincher gets the run time he wants. I'm not terribly interested in this movie, but I like Daniel Craig and want the film to succeed. Plus, I feel the director should get to make the movie he wants to, rather than have the number of scenes dictated in his film dictated to him by outside forces

There is absolutely no reason this story needs to be three hours.  None.

I think if you're footing the $100 million bill, you're gonna get a say on what you're getting for that money. NO ONE is interested in seeing a 3 hour GIRL W/ DRAGON TATTOO movie, and Sony knows that NO MATTER WHO is behind the camera.

IMO, I'm not so sure this is a slam dunk anyway. You make a movie based off a best selling book for inherent fan base right? I think anyone who's a fan has already read the book and seen the excellent original. Why would you want to see ANOTHER version of the same damn story so close to each other? I love the trilogy, but I have no interest in seeing this movie; already been there done that. I predict this will be a disappointment, Daniel Craig is b.o. poison.
