Not sure when three is due to be released.
I understand an american remake is potentially in the works for a 2012 release date. It will be hard to match the Swedish one though.

I always have mixed feelings about watching movie adaptations of books that I like. One of the few that I thought was absolutely accurate was the mini-series of Lonesome Dove. Watching that was almost like reading the book again to me.
(Have I mentioned that Lonesome Dove is probably my favorite book in the world?)
