If this actually happens I'll be watching for Zac Efron's lols, how is he going to pull off Light's signature laugh and his epic potato chip eating?! That awkward moment when you're watching yaoi then all of a sudden someone walks in... |

In an interview Efron said himself that if this project ever was realized it wasn't something that would be made soon. or something like that ^^ |

Live action Death Note? Can't say it will thrive at all. They should do a live action Mirai Nikki instead. Edit: ZAC EFRON? DONE. Edit2: Justin Beiber as Yukiteru would make me lol hard Please ignore what you don't like instead of attempting to disrupt it |

Unlike 99% of the live-action movies, I have high expectations on this one. I mean, besides the Shinigamis, Death Note doesn't need lots of special effects (which usually ruin those movies like "Dragon Ball" Evolution(aaargh)). Altough the japanese live-action was pretty lame...  |

The death note movie isn't a bad idea. Depending on the execution, it could prove to be a hit. But honestly, they always take a big risk when they import these Japanese series on to the big screen.  |

Turns out Warner Bros wanted to make drastic changes to the plot, which is why there is a hold-up on production of the film. Read this article on it here: http://www.suite101.com/news/shane-black--warner-bros-wanted-to-change-death-note-plot-a395032 They wanted to do away with all the shinigami characters and they wanted Light to NOT be evil... I can't even believe that! Light Yagami NOT evil? He is the most evil villain character EVER. How can you take that away from him? *facepalm* |

I absolutely hate live-action adaptations, and I initially despised Zack Efron since I could never take him seriously as an actor after doing a string of Family channel straight-to-TV movies. However, I can totally respect the fact that he's a serious Death Note fan. Something about celebrity quasi-Otakus gets me really excited, and I might check it out as someone who loved Death Note too. "Hello, Mr. Wind up Bird."  |
