[Movie] Death Note Live Action Movie

Aug 17, 2006 21:40

The fact that there IS a live action movie of Death Note is probably old news to some, but I watched it with my younger sister last week, and just felt like posting a review/critique thing... I'll be comparing and contrasting the manga and live action movie as well, but I won't be bashing either. Feel free to proceed or skip reading; there will be ( Read more... )

Okay, the thing that attracted me to this post was your icon... XD XD XD I have had similar thoughts of Kyouya being a scary Death Note holder. Even so much that I drew a silly sketch of him with a Death Note.

Anyways, I've only seen the first hour of the movie(yeah, that watermarked version that's the only one available online) and I don't understand Japanese, so this summary was nice in not only knowing what happened after the first part of the movie, but also understanding what was going on. (Especially since the first hour has NO L!!!! I was SOOOO dissapointed, because from the previews I've seen, and now from your statements, he seems like a PERFECT L!)

*LOL* I'm not the first one to make an icon like this, but hey XD glad you lie it!

Ah, nothing beats watching something on a really wide screen (i.e. in the theatre)... but the movie isn't shown around where you are? Happy to be of service then! ^_^ And yes, that L ... (okay, I know some say otherwise, but I like L and Light in the movie, even if Light doesn't really look like Light; Light doesn't quite sound right to me in the anime either, but that's because I keep thinking that beautiful voice is Suoh Tamak of Ouran High School Host Club O_O).

Yeah, it's so hard to get anything Japanese here without paying insane amounts of money to get it imported...and that's only if it's a DVD or CD or something. Plus, I'd have to have a DVD player that supports different regions. And being able to understand Japanese would be nice, too. -.- It's one of my farfetched goals in life to teach myself the language and move there, if only to get anime and video games when they come out. I've actually gleaned a lot just from watching fansubs and can understand simple phrases like "I will win" "Help!" "I don't understand" and such.

To be able to watch the Death Note movie in theaters would be awesome. And I know exactly what you mean about not being able to take Light seriously in the anime! I keep getting this image of him glomping Ryuk and saying "Mon ami, mon ami!" in my head. After a while I've gotten used to it, but it's still weird. Oh well, Mamoru Miyano is adorable, so it doesn't matter. XD
