Tomorrow is the day the American version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is released. I'm so excited that I'm actually nervous. More so nervous that it'll be awhile til I'll be able to get into the theater without it being so packed. I'd usually go to a morning showtime to avoid the rush, but it is winter break which means there are still more people out and about. We'll see.

Either way, I'll most likely see it multiple times in theater because I know for a fact the first viewing will consist of me analyzing and comparing every aspect of it to the Swedish version. Analyzing Rooney Mara, listening closely to the musical works of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, looking for similarities, for differences. Let it be said, this film, as excited as I am for it, does have a great deal of pressure and expectations put upon it.

Not to mention that the release date is the same date, one year prior, to the Apocalypse.
