I can't see this coming out well but being a fan of the series I can only hope they don't completely butcher it.  |

...I don't like where this is going. I'm quite apathetic to the idea of an American remake, but why would they only base it off the first three volumes? There better be more movies after the first one. My biggest issue will be casting. Especially for L. That could easily make or break this movie.

The Japanese films are a sign of how Death Note translated into live action. It worked for them and in general doesn't seem like a difficult job really, compared to most shounen series focusing on action. The US version, I'm wary but as long as they choose the right casting and leave things the way it is, I'll look forward to it. The odds of that is, well low IMO. |

Lol... and now it's Death Note's L and Kira turn to be bashed!!! Seriously I dunno what I can expect from this news... I'm not that happy, nor displeased... I just hope they do Death Note live to its reputation... Do a great, if not, a good movie adaptation of the the those first great volumes... Why the first three... Well if you think about it, in those is where most of the plot developes... and the rest is just the conclusion of everything that triggered the first volume... Well I'll wait for the cast... Lol I do support Zac Effron as Kira!! GO ZAC! Xd Signs, Green    |

No. Please, NO. No one asked for Death Note to be ruined. Actually, with Efron in it it won't even be Death Note. It'll be MUSICAL NOTE, as in a notebook that produces music, and whoever's name is written in the Musical Note will be forced to sing an HSM song.

sigh I thought DBE was a lesson for all movie producers? And if they really do go through with this, they better not mess up L. That will be the only reason I will be watching the movie. |
