Hello Wizard: Fincher Tribute

I'm not going to lie there are three very different classes of unlucky fincherfanatics at this time: The ones who cannot watch "Gone Girl" at all, the ones who still have to wait for their premiere -- and poor bastards like me who have already seen it twice but cannot wait to see it again.

Life's unfair, innit?

For all of the above, here's a little fix for the cravings: Hello Wizard has created a fantastic tableau of the cinematic greatness of more than two Fincher decades. Enjoy!

  1. My very shitty iphone-in-the-fron-pocket-of-my-shirt recording from the Fincher Q&A I went to. Can't stress enough how bad the quality is, but you can make out most of the conversation. Hope you enjoy it if you give it a listen. https://soundcloud.com/torrance-klimoski/fincher

  6. I've seen the movie. PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!!! I'm pretty much speechless right now, it's exactly like the book, it's better than the book. The acting is amazing. And I won't even get into the technical aspects... pure perfection, every frame. Wow.

    1. Haha, oh, good to hear you finally encountered that head-twister of a movie. Now what do you think of Gillian Flynn tackling "Utopia"? It will be brutal...
