There's already a movie adapation not long ago... what's the point in making another? WB really need to get their brains checked... Not just this, Bleach aswell? After producing a huge shit from Dragonball Evolution?

What's worse is that there probably will be ads that'll praise it like crazy going like "THE AMERICAN ADAPTATION OF THE CULT SERIES", so it gets millions for a crap movie.

Why, oh why.

i'm not really a fan of live action films, but remaking a series that already has a live adaptation doesn't really seem like a good idea.

plus, i have a feeling a hollywood adaptation won't be much of a hit...

i wonder if they're considering Justin Bieber to take on the role of Kira...

if that'll be the case, i'll only watch Kira's death... XD

If that would happen, I'd buy the dvd just to burn or rip it to shreds. I'd rather have Zac Efron playing Light, that would be kind of funny, but THAT GUY!? No f*cking way 0.o

I know right? I think Zac could kill it as Light, and also if it became a successful it would only grant Death Note a larger, much larger audience.

I'd see it.

Just read this article over at Anime News Network and just know that they are going to totally destroy this movie if they ever decide to do it. To quote from the article it says: "... the project was in jeopardy because the studio initially wanted to lose "the demon [Ryuk]. [They] don't want the kid to be evil…."
It really p***** me of that they want to change everything about what made the Anime so great. It's quite obnious that the people running the studio have absolutely no idea what Death Note is about. All I have to say is you can make whatever movie you want. Just don't call it Death Note.
The rest of the article is at the link below.

You say that, but yet you didn't mention that Shane Black is against what the executives wanted and you didn't post the more recent article with him explaining what changes he doesn't want in the movie.

Oh. My. God. 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?!

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.

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.
