Note: do not see this movie with your family for the holidays, even if it does comes out December 21, unless you want to make your time with your in-laws even more uncomfortable. Like, everyone-avoiding-eye-contact, change-your-flight-home uncomfortable. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo trailer boasts that it’s” the feel bad movie of Christmas,” and anyone who’s seen the original Swedish version of the dark, hyperviolent mystery, or read the books, know they are not joking around. Rooney Mara replaces Swedish actress Noomi Rapace as heroine Lisbeth Salander, who must go up against ex-Nazis, suspected murderers and home-grown creeps of every variety alongside Daniel Craig‘s ruggedly handsome journalist Mikael Blomkvist. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo red band trailer leaked over the weekend; watch it if you need anymore convincing that your Memaw and Pepaw do not need to be dragged out through the snow and to the theater to see it with you.
