i know he's said he's interested in branching out into orchestral which would be great, but if not that, doing something like a philip glass/minimalist score? he could totally pull that off.
I enjoyed the book, but found it to be a hard read at points. I'm looking forward to Fincher's adaptation and yet another stellar score from Mr. Reznor.
Edit: Wonder if Atticus Ross will be involved again, as well.
the original film was terrific, this americanized version will likely be mediocre at best, but at least the directing and score will be great!
How do you figure? They have the guy that wrote the screenplays for Gangs of New York and Schindler's List, and with Fincher directing I don't see this as a potential let-down. Also, I think a good example of how an "Americanized" version can work is Let Me In, and people were so ready to hate it.
