Sequel to Stieg Larsson’s Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy set for 35 countries
This is the world as remade by lawyers. This is why movies are shit reboot after shit reboot. This is why TV does shit reboot after shit reboot. Art becomes “property,” like fucking real estate. Those who can’t do, who can never understand, rape the dreams of creators and turn them into whores for all the world to see.

I recently discovered that there was an American remake of Forbrydelsen. For the life of me, I don’t understand why Americans couldn’t be interested in a series that takes place in Copenhagen. Another aspect of art as real estate, although I wonder if AMC had to compensate the original creators in any way.
Yes, AMC did it with the cooperation and licensing of the Danes. It was called The Killing and they screwed the viewers in the end:

It was cancelled then brought back for another season. But was never the buzz it once was.
