This Is The Ballsiest Movie Poster Ever Made.... EVER!!!!!

Check out this amazing movie poster for the upcoming American version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. It features a topless Rooney Mara being held by Daniel Craig. Fans of the original film and book series know that Mara's character, Lisbeth Salander, is a goth chick that is extremely sexual and that sex plays a huge part in the books. But to put her topless on the FUCKING POSTER is the craziest thing I have ever seen a studio do. I know, I know. This poster will NEVER make it to any theaters and NEVER be used officially... but it was all done to raise the buzz of the film that doesn't come out till December. After last weeks wordless trailer and this extremely risque poster, all I have to say is: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!! The movie opens December 21, 2011. I for one can't wait!

First the edited version:


And now, the nude one:

Now Thats How You Make A Movie Trailer!!!!





I have been getting quite angry at movie trailers lately... it seems like not only do they show most of the good parts in the trailer, they give away most of the plot as well. Why? This is so wack. Anywho, here is the trailer from 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' from the genius that is David Fincher. Now this is how you make a trailer. I read the book, and also saw the Swedish version of the movie, and I still didn't get alot of what I saw even though it intrigued me very much. Isn't that the point? The music is great, and the block lettering at the end sealed the deal for me. See for yourself:




I am really excited for this one. Rooney Mara (a former OHC her on CCD, thank you very much!) looks great as Lizbeth Salander, and Daniel Craig is always great. The "Feel Bad Movie of Christmas"... hahaha, what a great tagline! The movie comes out Christmas of 2011. I for one am psyched... how about you?

Here Is Rooney Mara as Lizbeth Salander... What Do You Think?

W magazine has Rooney Mara on the cover in costume as Lizbeth Salander from The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo... and as a fan of the original movie and someone who is reading the books, I must say I like the way it is shaking out! First, here is what Ms. Rooney looks like:


and here is what the wonderful Noomi Rapace looked like in the original 3 Swedish films:


Wow, very different then when we highlighted her a few months back as Obscure Hot Chick of the Day. Looks pretty good to me... and I was a bit worried. But this is in the capable hands of David Fincher, and here is what he had to say to W on why he thinks he was picked to helm this controversial and long awaited Americanized version:
"I have no misconceptions; I know what the game is. They wanted me to do Zodiac because Se7en was successful and both are about serial killers. Now they offer me Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. They think, No one does perv quite like this guy."
That's so true, its scary. I'm officially psyched and a lot less worried about how they were going to tone down the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo for the American audience. Is it me, or does Rooney's version look even more edgy and bad ass? Do you guys like what you see... let us know in the comment section below! We'll see... the film is due out in late 2011/early 2012. Thanks to /Film for the tip.

OHC Of The Day: Rooney Mara

I have been eagerly anticpating the announcement of who would play the female lead, Lizbeth Sadler, in the US adaption of "The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo". The Swedish book series, called the Millenium triology by Stieg Larson, is a huge bestseller & the Swedish film was the biggest in that countries history. The big female stars of Hollywood have been circling this part for months now. Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johanson, Carey Mulligan... all of the young starlets would sell their souls for this part. Well, looks like David Fincher went in a different direction. He has chosen relative unknown (at least compared to those chicks above) Rooney Mara in the coveted part. Who is Rooney Mara? Well, I'm glad you asked. She brought the female heroine Nancy back to life in the 2010 remake of A Nightmare On Elm St, and she was pretty good at holding of the Dreammaster in the so-so movie. She is also set to appear in Fincher's The Social Network, which tells the story of the guys who created Facebook. That movie is going to be large, so expect to see Mara begin to gain some recognition shortly. She is also the granddaughter of New York Giant owner Wellington Mara, on her pops side... and Art Rooney, the owner of the Pittsburg Steelers, on her moms side. That makes her a double billionaire heiress as well. This means she can take the roles she wants in order to become a better actress since she don't need the money. Her sister Kate is also an actress (and future OHC of the day, lol) that is currently playing Eric's assistant on Entourage. These two NFL princesses will be making some power moves in Hollywood for years to come. Enjoy the photos, and please comment below on our new friend and Obscure Hot Chick of the Day, Rooney Mara!!!

Netflix Streaming Picks of the Week - 7-16-2010

So heres what I been watching all week on Netflix Streaming thru my Wii. I suggest you check these titles out immediately, or pop em in your instant que and get to them when you can!!! Thats the best part about Netflix Streaming... it's there whenever you get to it!!!

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo -


Let me start off by saying that this movie is in Swedish with subtitles... I know I just lost a few of you guys right there. But for those who have stuck around, you are in for a treat. This awesome psychological thriller is right up there with Silence of the Lambs... totally crazy!!! The title actually translates to "Men who hate women" so there are some pretty graphic domestic violence scenes, and the film explores some really dark themes. Noomi Rapace provides an amazing performance as Lisbeth Sadler, the tortured girl who plays the title character. Try to catch this one  before the American remake comes out... or read the book, which I'm sure was awesome. There is also two additional sequels in the "Millenium" trilogy. Enjoy kids...

Step Brothers - 


This is why I love Netflix Streaming... they mix in some a ton of new titles with the older ones in the library. I watched this movie last night, and its better everytime you watch it. John C Reilly and Will Ferrell are perfect in every way. I personally love the uncomfortable scenes between John C Reilly and Kathryn Hahn, especially when they are having sex... hysterical. Plus, Reilly and Ferrell are perfect together... if you want to laugh, watch this puppy!!!

Monsters Inc.

  

Perfect. Pixar. Movie.... nothing else to say. If you haven't seen this yet, get it done. There really isn't a better kid/cartoon movie out there. A perfect voice cast, spectacular graphics, and a great story... make it happen, captain!!!

So, what are you guys watching??? Any suggestions for us... please leave them in the comments section below!!! Thanks.
