Draws on

Blue Velvet (1986): 1 line

  1. unmapped (quoted line) · through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), which they acted in: Blue Velvet ⇒ The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the host's read). The fuck-you-you-fucking-fuck shirt is believed to originate from Dennis Hopper's line in Blue Velvet.

Pitch Black (2000): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Chronicles of Riddick (2004), which they acted in: Pitch Black ⇒ The Chronicles of Riddick (the host's read). Chronicles of Riddick is the big-budget sequel, and home video retitled Pitch Black as Chronicles of Riddick: Pitch Black.

Stieg Larsson: 1 line

  1. lineage (adaptation) · through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), which they acted in: Stieg Larsson ⇒ The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the host's read). The film is Zaillian's abridged adaptation of Larsson's novel, which loses nothing major.
    “I think this is an excellent piece of adaptation that does not really, like, skip anything major.”

Sven Nykvist: 1 line

  1. craft (visual reference) · through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), which they acted in: Sven Nykvist ⇒ The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the maker said so). Someone on the shoot (Fincher, or the DP by the garbled name) wanted a Sven Nykvist look: warm fires, cold rooms.
    “I wanted to do a whole Sven Nikfist thing”

  1. lineage (remake) · through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), which they acted in: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Swedish, 2009) ⇒ The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the host's read). The Fincher film is the American remake of the Swedish original; its director says he was not worried.

Gone Girl (2014): 1 line

  1. people (casting approach) · through The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), which they acted in: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo ⇒ Gone Girl (the host's read). The speaker thinks Fincher's exhaustive casting search on Dragon Tattoo informed how he cast Amy with someone new to the audience.

Fun items about them

  1. fun, about Yorick van Wageningen: Test audiences found it disproportionate that she was naked in the assault and he was not, so the torture scene was reshot.
    “the test audience has reacted negatively where they were like, well, it feels weird and disproportionate that she's naked during her assault and that he's not.”
