Memes aside, what is the real reason did didn't any sequels? It was fully intended to have two sequels, and many of the people involved were already under contract for 2 and 3. The movie did alright in theaters (although not great) and was very acclaimed; sequels would've grossed more than the original after the original's home video release, award wins, word of mouth, etc.
too unrealistic

i love this movie so dearly - its a masterpiece. the visuals the music. craig and autism rooney is just something i can watch over and over again.
beside. money reasons - they expected it to blow box office records while fincher wanted tons of $$$$ for more movies.

Okay, is it this one:
Dear Amy,
Hello, how are you? I hope you are well- its been a very long time!
I'm writing because I wanted to ask you about the Dragon Tattoo
sequels. Logic tells me they are not ever happening- as it's been
almost 3 years since it came out. But I had still been holding out a
little bit of hope. I know there had been talks to do some sort of TV
version without me. People still ask me about it ALL the time. And I
never know quite what to say. So I guess I just wanted to ask you so I
could know for myself and so that I can let it go for good if that's
the case. It's obviously a character and an experience I hold very
close.
Hope you're doing really well.
Xo
Sincerely,
Rooney

Even with the autism, Rooney as a hacker breaks the immersion.
>>64171433
the point is that the term has always existed, but /pol/ has only started to use it because they see everyone else using it, because it's another linguistic weapon in the arsenal of the ignorant.
There are 2 more movies to go and a huge gaping hole in her backstory. It's safe to assume we can't label her anything right now.
>>64171005
>I am sick of this fucking word. I've been seeing it everywhere since Shit wars was released
There's a reason.
Read the books. You'll know why they didn't make sequels. It's the most absurd feminist Mary Sue bullshit ever.

>>64168926
not at all, he even tried to pony up his own doe when sony said he needed yaadayaada more money
>>64172080
she only really tried the blockbuster thing twice (this and Pan)
Because it bombed at the box office.
Production budget = 90 M
Marketing = 129 M
Total cost = $219 M
Domestic Gross = 98 M
Domestic Net = 53 M
Foreign Gross = $132M
Foreign Net = $54 M
Total Revenue = 108 M
Revenue - Cost = Profit
108 - 219 = $110,000,000 Loss
For those of you wondering, I got the numbers from this wikileaks document when they were calculating if they should make a sequel. Obviously the answer was no:
https://wikileaks.org/sony/docs/03_03/MKTGFIN/Green%20Light%20Memos/GLMEMOS/FY2015/GL%20Meeting%20Spreadsheets/Girl.Fire.xls
Read Scott and Amy's emails. They're going to reboot it as a Netflix series without Roon and Dan doesn't want to do it either and obviously they hate Fincher.
>>64172190
Fuck, I kinda feel bad for her.
>>64168789
it was a very highly sold book, so they expected it to sell lots. Sadly, the book has a stigma to it like 50 Shades, so most people didn't see it until it was too late. The movie is my personal favorite Fincher movie too, it feels like a fantasy detective movie, and it that right is solely unique. It feels like fellowship of the ring had a child with Agatha cristie.. Also, even the twist is better second and third time, there is soooo much little things added into the movie for the re-watch. That's what makes a movie good, the rewatchability
>>64171300
Who is this big lipped dick suckin cutie?
>>64172229
those emails are old intel and deals change all the time.
Fincher had 2 Netflix shows. Then he had none. Now he has a new one.
There was going to be a Dragon Tattoo sequel, then there wasn't, then there was with Alice Vikander, then Rooney herself said she's still in the running.
It's an unstable business.
>>64170571
he used gas, casting was perfect, they were all European and Swedish just like in the fantastic source
>>64172262
everyone knew Pan was gonna flop
rooney should of known that too
literal retard if u sign up for that one
>>64172190
social network, her, side effects, nightmare on elm street... no not at all lol
>>64172488
2 hbo shows, not netflix
>>64172521
Apparently it was one of those roles actors take so that their younger family members can also watch one of their films. That shit never ends well.
>>64172488
But the point was answer why TGWPWF was put in TA in the first place. When a movie is put in TA that doesn't normally reverse itself. Jobs was a special case.
When the 4th book came out you saw in the emails they discarded Zaillan's script for TGWPWF in order to do the new book from the new author. Amy wrote in email where she said "Wow, just like Bond!" referring to a character continuing in new books without the original author after his death.
>>64172521
Man, maybe she's just naive.
>>64168789
Mara's character is aMary SueThe rape scene is what all women crave so it doesn't count as showing vulnerability
>>64172611
>social network, her, side effects
those weren't made or marketed as blockbusters at all.
elm street is the closest, but horror is still low budget speciality cinema. Even the big hitters like Paranormal Activity aren't blockbusters in the slightest.
>>64172679
great post. and so true
>>64172433
I can't remember and image search isn't working for me right now ._.
>>64172679
Actors just say this in interviews. The real reason actors do roles like that is 1. Money 2. favours for the studio.
Hollywood is about leverage. Do you think Danny Boyle was passionate about a Steve Jobs movie? No- he was doing a favor for Scott and Amy so he would have leverage over them. Now they owe him- or would have, who knows what is going on now that the movie bombed.
Adam McKay only did Anchorman 2 so he could do he banking movie- when that sequel bombed as noted in the Sony emails he still got to do his banking movie.
Amy asked a bunch of people in the emails for help on who do Ghostbusters before Paul Feig was chosen- Seth Rogen wrote her emails recommending Gore Verbinski- he didn't need to do that, and Amy didn't use his idea, but the fact he did her that favor gives him leverage.
>>64172725
social network was VERY VERY marketed. it had Several tv spots, commericals, and people talking about it in my area. It was the first of its kind with the whole facebook thing. I think even a class in my highschool went to see it
>watching a series of films based on a a Swedecuck book series called Men Who Hate Women
>>64172864
Social Network is the kind of blockbuster Amy wants to be making- like back in the early 90s when movies she produced like "In a League Of Her Own" could be big hits. She comes from a different era of producing- that's why Sony's franchises are such shit, she doesn't want to be doing Spiderman 5 6 and 7, she wants to do Moneyball, Little House On The Prairie and Steve Jobs. I think her getting fired was the best thing that could have happened to her.
Craig wanted more money.
>>64172673
fair, but with 3 scenes of substance (intro, "Erica Albright's a bitch" scene, then the restaurant) Rooney wasn't really a major character and certainly not a main draw. She has only had a couple of starring roles and they were mostly independent releases.
>>64172965
oops this was meant for >>64172864
>>64172955
based Amy. We need more female execs with taste. Now there's only Megan Ellison.
>>64172961
If you read the emails, that's not the reason. Look at the financial projections- the budget decreased, it didn't increase for the sequel.
The real reason is it bombed at the box office.
>>64173011
I wonder why it bombed. A lot of people really like it.
Maybe too dark? It isn't exactly uplifting and can tell in the previews it won't be.
>>64172858
Yes, but choosing Pan specifically has to do with the child factor.
Obviously she doesn't care for the movie in any artistic sense. Acting, however, is still a job. While Rooney can basically do what she wants considering her family has more money than the families of everybody browsing /tv/ combined, she still has to treat it like a job. She indeed has to make money, and she has to do stay in good social standing. She then chooses Pan because of her little nephews or something instead of Action Movie Part 3.
>>64173010
There's funny emails where Scott and Amy are trashing Megan for being an unprofessional dyke. Megan has produced lots of great films, but she's not a professional, she's just a rich spoiled hipster who has helped talented people. Amy has real talent in her and professional experience, but it was wasted doing these shit movies for Sony. Sony should make Amy head an indie imprint for them- I think she's as good for the films she did with Scott as Scott was. She's a producer at heart, not an executive.
Also a very nice lady desu senpai.
>>64173081

Cost too much, bad taglines and advertising, wrong time to release it. They never should have let Fincher near the marketing controls.
>>64173103
>Yes, but choosing Pan specifically has to do with the child factor.
You're being naive if you think she "chose" that movie. Maybe she wanted to work for Joe Wright but I doubt there was much volitional about that choice.
Is there anything interesting about Kate in the emails?
>>64173103
but roonroon doesn't have any childrenyet
btw, I really do love this movie. It's incredibly well made, but it bombed, that's that. I still love Amy and Scott.
did anyone else notice the ending of the movie was from The Searchers? Is Rooney Mara the new John Wayne?
>>64173169
Nope, but there are funny emails about Josh
Trank being a maniac.
>>64173125
So movies now either need to be capeshit or extremely cheap?
>>64173158
>Cost too much, bad taglines and advertising, wrong time to release it.
What made it so expensive? The talent? I can't imagine the sets were cheap, but, also didn't seem like it would be super expensive in terms of special effects or whatever
>>64173242
The movie is intensely detailed and is every little thing about it is just very well produced. From things like staging the old photographs perfectly down to the exact blur of people's body parts takes time and money, as does the detail paid to something like silently and almost invisibly having the character's hairstyles and set dressing change as time passes in the film.
>>64168789

>So movies now either need to be capeshit or extremely cheap?
Pretty much, every now and then a film 'sneaks' through and becomes succesful as a new IP. Something like paranormal activity, but you cant ever predict a paranormal activity, producers are just not going to drop hundreds of millions on something that isnt established
>>64173106
>she's just a rich spoiled hipster who has helped talented people
that's all we need fám. someone rich with actual taste. who cares about nepotism if they actually fund great films no one else has the balls to do?
Scott has a pretty much spotless producing record. He commissioned Annie Baker to write/direct a movie and is trying to get Book of Mormon to screen. He's a man after my own heart.
>>64173158
>You're being naive if you think she "chose" that movie. Maybe she wanted to work for Joe Wright but I doubt there was much volitional about that choice.
Is it really that tight? I thought there was at least a little bit of leeway for them. At least Rooney stars in good indie/alternative films. It's so fucking disheartening to see good actors waste their time with shit blockbusters so they can make indie films, only for those indie films to be shit indie films that are even worse than the blockbusters they did.I'd ask Rooney about it when I see her soon, but I don't know her that well and she's not very open
>>64173242
>What made it so expensive?
on top of the billions of takes, Fincher was such a perfectionist he digitally stitched together performances from different takes into the same frame, just to satisfy his Kubrick-tier autism.
>>64173106
>Also a very nice lady desu senpai.
Sat next to her on an airplane. She needs to take it easy on the perfume tbch.
>>64173242
>So movies now either need to be capeshit or extremely cheap?
Yes.
>What made it so expensive? The talent? I can't imagine the sets were cheap, but, also didn't seem like it would be super expensive in terms of special effects or whatever
1. Expensive fees for Dan and Dave
2. Lengthy and therefore expensive pre-production
3. Lengthy and therefore expensive production- Fincher likes to shoot a lot of takes so shooting just takes a long time.
4. Length and therefore expensive post-production. The Sony emails describe Fincher being very acrimonious in the marketing meetings for the film and treating everyone very poorly, which is why they told him to fuck off for Steve Jobs.
>>64173422
But it worked for Gone Girl, right? He was the same for that?
>muh english remakes

>>64173534
This movie is an example of where the American version is better than the Swedish. Significantly better.

I disagree. Check out what Frank Zappa says about "hip" creative executive arbiters:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZazEM8cgt0
>>64173368
I think Scott and Amy are a dream team. Scott's a talented and incredibly smart asshole, and Amy's a sweetheart. I worked under both of them and it's hard not to admire them. They got so fucked by the media about these fucking emails tbhfam.
>>64173422
That's a very Lucas thing to do. I'm fine with him doing that, but when it fails at the box office he has to eat shit. He needs to work with the leverage he has now, not what he had before his bomb.
Didn't Fincher go way over budget on fucking CG for the movie? Turns out a lot of the lighting and snow flakes or some shit was all fake. How do you fuck up that badly? I thought the movie was all right. Rooney's Lisbeth was by far the best part of it, but I don't know the series would have ever been a huge hit.
How is the new "Lisbeth Salander" book anyway? I enjoyed the initial Millennium Trilogy. I've never read a series that gets taken over by another author though so I have major reservations.
>>64173452
Actually, one of the things I like about Amy is she's just a cheap skank at heart. I loved her perfume and too much make-up and her hair was always sort of "off" and she never dressed her age. I dunno, it made her very endearing to me tbhfam.
>>64168948
>Read the books?
>They are shit
I only read the first book (before I saw the movie) and I thought it was 1000000000x better than the Hollywood movie with all those shitty fake Swedish accents.
I've heard good things about the Swedish trilogy of movies. Might have to download those.

Roonie's an antisocial weirdo. I won't say she's an ass since I don't know her that well but she does have a vibe of being "on the spectrum." How do you know her? I worked on S&P for TSN.

>Plus I bet most people freeze when some sales guy comes up and hassles them.
Hasn't been my experience.
>>64174285
people thought it was just a sadism book. One that is read by people who can no longer get off to Fabio so they find other means. Like 50 shades. Most people heard there was rape in the book and all else failed. Same thing happened with The Golden Compass, people thought it was atheist at heart and so no one saw it
>>64173792
I don't know her well at all. It's more of a peripheral thing; I know people that (sometimes) work in Hollywood, and occasionally I work with them. I met Rooney once before and she basically just stared in front of her (or well I was somewhere where she was. I wasn't formally introduced to her). We needed her for a little bit so we talked to her and she just gave short replies. She didn't seem nervous or anything, but it felt like she really didn't want to be there. Usually actors pretend to be super happy about everything but Rooney just didn't give a fuck. I thought she was seriously pissed off about something, but didn't see enough of her to really tell.
Afterwards I talked about her with someone and he, who had worked with her on a very personal level (I won't go into what this is, but it's something that necessitates contact and trust. No, he's not an actor, and no it's not sex) and he said she just didn't talk throughout the whole thing; unlike anyone he had ever worked with before. He and his assistants had figured she was just retarded or something, but during the few moments that she did speak she was in fact very intelligent, destroying that theory.
From what I experienced myself and what others have told me, I've gathered that Rooney is very cold, not open at all, and most of all an enigma. You honestly can't figure out if she's rude, shy, arrogant, autistic, eager to please, doesn't care introverted, a scheming machiavellian villain, a scheming machiavellian hero, or just something else.
>>64174265
kek
>>64174376
Ah okay, makes sense. Yeah rape is pretty damn taboo and cuts a lot of the audience out.
>>64174439
but I thought it was very tactfully cone in the movie, and in the book its shorter than I guessed it would've been
>>64174392
I think Roonie fancies herself an enigma, a Garbo, a Lisbeth Salander, a John Galt, but at the end of the day she's just a rich whore with autism. Fuck her if this is true. Was it wardrobe? Personal trainer or choreographer?
>>64174481
I'm so desensitized from /b/ when I was younger that rape doesn't phase me in a movie, so, hard to say. I agree it didn't seem over the top, but still when ever you do anything with 'rape' it's something a good portion of people avoid anything to do with (not even talking about it, let alone seeing it in a movie)
>>64174512
Although I do want to say that those things also describe Amber Heard, but Amber's actually a nice and cordial person. I don't need people to be fucking social butterflies, but the basics of being cordial and polite in a workplace setting at necessary. I think Rooney's just a snob.
>>64174512
None of those things. However, for some reason, while knowing that this person would never, ever browse 4chan, I'm nervous about disclosing the exact profession of the guy. Let's say it was something more "glamourous" and leave it at that.
What Rooney fancies herself and what she really is I don't know. Genuinely can't tell if she's a cunt or a sweetheart.
Do you have any specific stories? Aside from possible arrogance/rudeness I have no reason to believe she's wholly unlikeable or a whore by any interpretation of the term.
Do you know if she actually considers herself to be mysterious? There's definitely something "off" with her, if this is autism or something else I don't know, but it's more than just a few personality traits.
>>64174747
I haven't met Amber but I did meet Johnny years ago and he was based.
>>64174392
>>64174772
You're both fucking weirdos and nobodies, that's why she didn't say much on top of probably just being a quiet person. Sleezeball salesman and some lighting grip.
>>64174392
> we talked to her and she just gave short replies.
>You honestly can't figure out if she's rude, shy, arrogant, autistic, eager to please, doesn't care introverted, a scheming machiavellian villain, a scheming machiavellian hero, or just something else.
sounds like she's just not in conversation mode. which sounds like that's what you were expecting.
>>64170777
Read them. She becomes so Mary Sue, before the action starts in the second book, she CASUALLY MAKES A SHORT PROOF OF FERMAT'S LAST THEOREM HAVING JUST LEARNED MATHEMATICS.

Rooney is a bisexual slut. Amber is too but Amber is at least nice and humble.
She has a bad reputation.
>>64175131
Rooney's not bisexual, she's a lesbian who fucked Fincher to help her career and because she's a bored slut. She only did it because Finch's wife was ok with it.
>>64174980
Well you replied to the same guy twice (me), and while I'm definitely not contesting that I am a weirdo nobody, absolutely no one else acted I've ever worked with, or encountered in general, acted the way she did. It might be understandable, but it's still odd.
>>64175053
Eh, basically, but it's different with her than with other people. I had a friend in high school who would only talk when only one other person was present (regardless of who this person was). He had three friends, me being one of them, and he would only talk if only one of us was with him; if we were hanging out with the four of us he'd stay silent, despite us all being his friends. However when he finally did d start talking he was very extroverted. I suspect something similar is going on with Rooney.
>>64175131
Wow, really? I just know her as The Ice Queen.
LEAVE ROON ROON ALONE@#%$$
>>64175214
Fincher's not married, though
>>64175250
sounds like it's just bad social skills.
>>64175442
Then it was his girlfriend. The point is Rooney doesn't even like men, but she fucked Fincher and Daniel Craig in order to help her career. She's a fucking whore of the worst kind and everyone hates her and her sister in Hollywood.
>>64175607
what makes you think she fucked daniel craig? he seemed weirded out by her and fincher. also, he's married.
>>64175666
Daniel was fucking Rooney before he married Rachel and when he got married Rooney got pissed and stopped talking to him. It was a nightmare because they were supposed to promote a movie together.
>>64175727
my mistake.
how do you know all this, if you don't mind my asking?
>>64175727
Rachel married Daniel to spite Darren Aronofsky who was sleeping with Natalie Portman. Natalie's husband is an insufferable asshole and also gay. I don't know what Natalie's deal is. Never met her.
Do you know if Rooney's bf is a merkin? I know nothing about him other than that he exists. Rooney must be somehow likeable if she's friends with Blanchett, because Cate is the coolest person alive.
>>64175948
Natalie's another piece of work. She's a snob and rude, but also very pretentious. She's sort of Rooney's opposite number- Natalie loves to talk about herself and her craft.
But it's always a once way conversation- a monologue. I heard she treated Keira knightly like shit on Phantom Menace.
>>64175948
Rooney's BF is a merkin- she pretends to be straight so her dad doesn't cut her out of the inheritance. And I heard a rumour that Kate doesn't even know this, but I don't believe it, because everyone in Hollywood seems to know Rooney's a dyke.
I also heard she makes a private show of sleeping with him in front of her family (as in sleeping in the same bed not fucking) but I don't know if that's true. But she hasn't come out of the closet to her family.
Oh, and another thing about Rooney is she's a gigantic cokehead.
And people wonder why someone like Jennifer Lawrence, Chris Pratt or Channing Tatum are well liked compared to some of the shitheads working in Hollywood. Sure they're overexposed, but at the end of the day they're all just nice decent people. The only thing you could really say about any of them is that Jennifer's a whore and Channing's a moron, but that's really just subjective- they don't treat people poorly for the most part like some of their peers, and they actually try and put for effort in promoting their movies.
>>64175055
right so women doing incredulous things in books is a Mary Sue thing now. Got it. (sighs for humanity)
>>64175992
I just know she REALLY likes Darren and has done so for years. Don't know why they never got together. I did hear once that Natalie likes to loudly masturbate in hotel rooms and restrooms, but to be honest that sounds like bullshit.
>>64176042
I've never met Kate or heard anyone talk about her really. What's Mara #2's story? Also, is there anybody that Rooney has been known to be involved with. Despite everything Rooney's a smart lady as far as I can tell.
>>64176042
John Mara is a huge asshole too, so that doesn't surprise me. The whole family are cunts.
>>64175607
>Rooney doesn't even like men
>>64175727
>when he got married Rooney got pissed and stopped talking to him
why would she get pissed if she doesn't like men?
My favourite part of the books was all the wonderful feminist "facts" placed at the end of each chapter. It really was a swedish series.
>>64168789
It shouldn't have come out at Christmas and Fincher shouldn't have been allowed to control the advertising/marketing

Who doesn't, the fucker is unable to stay inside a budget and it's a gamble for studios.

>I wonder why it bombed. A lot of people really like it.
It came out far too soon after A&E had run all 3 of the original tv-movies which were positively received despite (GASP) being subtitled. The kind of people who'd see this already had.
The studios were idiots to make it instead of theatrically releasing the originals. Also, it's a fucking Swedish movie specifically about Swedish politics and neither Craig nor Mara are Swedes.
As much as it pains people to hear this, it was a franchise made for people just smart enough to realize it didn't need a remake.
>>64173106
>Sony should make Amy head an indie imprint for them
That's exactly how Orion was formed. You know, the studio that eventually greenlit a popular novel and let its director burn money until the studio went bankrupt after it underperformed at the box office.
The director was David Fincher.
>>64173422
>Fincher was such a perfectionist he digitally stitched together performances from different takes into the same frame
the man who when tasked with casting identical twins for The Social Network said "No, let's have Armie Hammer's head laser scanned and make a digital puppet adding another $12M to production."
In a just world he'd have his coke dealers shot in front of him.
>>64173748
>I've heard good things about the Swedish trilogy of movies. Might have to download those.
They're good.
>>64174003
>I'm sure Stieg Larsson is rolling in his grave.
Stieg was an investigative journo who knew his business well enough to write fiction set in it. He wasn't a literary genius and the Millennium trilogy was completed posthumously by someone else.
As long as Lagercrantz knows the business well enough and is true to the characters, it has a chance.
>>64175055
>She becomes so Mary Sue
MS != OP
Mary Sue is someone who enters a narrative and EVERYONE drops what they're doing to let us know how much they love her. THAT'S what makes one an author self-insert, not being able to do something that's implausible.
> but the meaning has–
no it fucking hasn't, you just got told and shut the fuck up
>>64179028
>They're good.
no they aren't

it also came out on christmas, didnt it?
figure its not the most appealing christmas blockbuster
>>64171768
I thought the movie was bad enough with Nazi-Murder-Island.
Now that I think about it, it shills Sweden's "multiculturalism" pretty hard.
>evil immigrant-killing nazis
>defeated by strong bisexual woman
>>64178002
Because she's insane.
>>64178619
It shows Amy that Seth wants to help her. It shows he's game and his relationship with her is cavalier, in a good way.
>>64179487
He didn't. Fincher didn't adapt any novel until Fight Club, which was in 1999. Orion crashed and burned in like '92/'93. That guy doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.
>>64168789
The profit margins weren't good enough.
The only way to make it commercially viable is to have a big star like Daniel Craig on board and he'll only do the film if it has around a $50-60 million dollar budget and so you have to spend double that when you account for marketing so you're looking at $100-120 million all in so you have to make at least double that (and most of it in the US) to even brake even.
It made $233 million which is just not good enough. I doubt they lost money but it was close and a weak performance like that on the first one could mean the next one would make even less.
>>64169323
Can someone explain to the rules for using - in emails? Ive received several emails with sentences using - and never understood why or how its used.
I liked all the gossip in this thread. Anymore stories, anon.
I agree, Rooney is a werido. Kate seems like the normal one.
>>64183497
Kate did an interview with Craig Ferguson practically drooling all over him, admitting she was fucked up on drugs at the time. Not exactly normal.
>>64184700
I can't believe our girl Rooney would be so oblivious, makes me sad for her.
>>64168789
Because the other books were absolute shit. They had a low-level Swedish celebrity randomly showing up and then having some chapters where he gets to be the hero, for god's sake.
>yfw Hollywood buys the rights to that shitty fourth book and makes the greedy father and brother even more money

>>64182863
that's called an em dash, google it.
Better question is why does Fincher waste his talent on adapting these airport novels?
Don't get me wrong I really liked both TGWGT and Gone Girl but I would really like him to tackle a more interesting script.
>>64181430
Honestly Daniel Craig was the reason I didn't watch the movie, I don't respect him as an actor and only know him from the Bond movies.
I knew that GWTDT would probably be good once I heard that Fincher was attached but I'm european, so I knew the swedish movies and I also knew a US remake was unnecessary and that it was way too early. I think a lot of people here boycotted it on principle of it being a big American reproduction of an already all right movie that they could've just shown in the US as it was. So >>64178788 is right on the money, nobody wanted to see it over here.
