Death Note is one of the best selling anime, manga and jap live action franchises ever.
It is universally praised by everyone who is not an autistic twat.
>>
>>149872183
Fuck off if you honestly think sales figures equates quality. Even if it did, Berserk is one of the best selling and critically regarded manga and just got completely shit on by Japan themselves so the US can do what they want at this point.
>>
>>149872155
Zac Effron was perfect for the role back in the day and unlike most other vapid Hollywood cunts, he has read and loves the source material.
>>
>>149870978
Yes.
>>
>>149872183
It's not that good. The writers think they're cleverer than they really are
>>
>>149864372
Is he the magical negro from the book?

There is not enough time in a movie to tell the story or go between the conflict and thinking ten steps ahead that the manga/anime cover.
>>
>>149872260
>Even if it did, Berserk is one of the best selling and critically regarded manga
Not really. It has been slipping for the last 7 years and has less sales per volume than fucking Rokudenashi Blues. It hasn't even crossed 50 mill in what 30 years now?
>>
>>149872394
cool didn't know that, then let's just say critically regarded, my point still stands
>>
>>149872271
Sure, I can agree with that. But couldn't L's actor be the same?
>>
>>149872482
He doesn't even look like L.
>>
>>149864590
I was actually thinking of this when I saw the pic of him at the podium. Not outside the realm of possibility, it looks like more or less the same scene.
>>
>>149871031
I love them as much as they love white people.
>>
>>149872482
If this movie was about ensuring that everyone looked the part it would be filmed with an entire Japanese cast.

If we're going by that then Zac Effron is just as poor a match as Light by the virtue of not being Japanese.
>>
When I heard that they're Edge of Tomorrowing I became hyped. Taking the concepts and changing the settings and at least some aspects of the mythology. Maybe changing Shinigami to Demon and having some occultism thrown in there.

I'm looking forward to his portrayal of L.
>>
>>149867258
He kindof is, though.
>>
>>149872599
So case by case? Individual by individual?
>>
>>149870780
I think he was actually supposed to be mixed or something, but it doesnt really matter considering they wont have a cast of japanese people chilling in america.
>>
>>149872639
>If this movie was about ensuring that everyone looked the part it would be filmed with an entire Japanese cast.
A lot of the cast isn't Japanese though.
>>
>>149868440
I find him handsome, I think he'll do great.
>>
>>149872671
I'd agree with you save for the fact that this is a more teen oriented movie. Those just suck in general.
>>
>>149872738
How will he get the hair for the role?
>>
>>149872781
He'll just get a big old afro and have twigs and candy and shit in it.
>>
>>149864372
this wont work. alot of L charm came from pale skin and dark circle eyes with black hair and white shirt contrast.
>>
I find it hysterical that they turned the only actual white dude in the original (first half anyway) Japanese while changing everyone else.

That said, his movie history doesn't give me hopes for how the portrayal will go. L was a weird as shit twitchy autistic genius and I can't see any of his lines coming out of this dude's mouth.

They're obviously rewriting everything, but I have the feeling he's only going to be L in name and role as opposed to anything like the original whatsoever.
>>
>>149872708
Are you referring to the movie or the original work or both?
>>
>>149872260
Death note is one of the best manga/anime of all time. You can say what you want and not like it, but its one of the most critically acclaimed manga/anime for hardcore fans and newcomers alike.
>>
>>149872896
>L was a weird as shit twitchy autistic genius and I can't see any of his lines coming out of this dude's mouth.

This. It strikes me odd that so many people are angry that he's black instead of the fact that the character is completely different.
>>
>>149864372
I'm actually looking forward to his performance. Maybe he'll surprise us all.
>>
>>149872828
This is actually not a bad idea.
You should sell your idea to the producers.
>>
>>149872893
Really? If anything what made him charming to me were his quirks more than anything else. Never cared about his appearance.

"Honor student" won't make sense in USA. American honor students aren't as isolated as the ones in Japan. They'll have to find another reason that Light's parents don't pay attention to him.
>>
>>149873294
Eeeeh, he looks a bit too, "elegant", could be the word? Or mature?

Can't see him pulling off L's quirkiness and autism as well, which means they're gonna probably gonna be rewriting the character somewhat.

Original nigger superheroes are okay.

>Additionally, in what way is L being black a detriment to the story?
Live actions are supposed to make fictional characters alive. None will be 100% accurate but at least try to be visually similar with the characters. If they want to shove niggers so bad they should've created an original character instead.

Black actors on average get less viewers and long term fans. With a few exceptions with legends like Will Smith, or Samuel L Jackson who have their own brands.

>>149874882

Different taste, m8s.

I grew up a white dude in South Africa so I got exposure to that stuff. Just because they weren't as technologically advanced doesn't mean they weren't interesting.

It's little different compared to when large portions of Europe where living as nomadic tribes. Just because they were primitive doesn't mean there weren't interesting parts of the history.

Point taken.
>>
>>149875067
But we're talking about black race people wanting to be into historical accurate roles, instead of being shoehorned into it.
Thinking Africa is a single piece of small land were every one is black and theres no other ethnicity talks about a poor schoolarship formation.
Its on the same vein as making every latinamerican country looks like Mexico, like Hollywood tends to do.

>>149874882

As a fellow African I think it's not a matter of taste of it being interesting but people not knowing fuck about it.

The audience won't watch something they don't know shit about so producers won't make it.

There are plenty of black actors who can play a great autist character, Donald Glover for instance. I'm just concerned that he'll be too smooth for the role.
>>
>>149873486
Wouldnt that make it better, especially in a probably rather serious movie? L's quirks werent really his strong points. His relationship with Light was what made it so entertaining.
>>
>>149875889
Too elaborate, I'm not too familiar with him as an actor so I'm partially extrapolating on his acting based off what other people have said about him.

For all I know I might be wrong and he'd be a great autist like L.

Because Hollywood only makes movies in order to launder money now.

They hire anyone to make it for the cheapest amount of money and Hollywood just happens to be absolutely infested of liberal vermin with the skill and subtlety of a retarded shrieking rat. As such most movies are both handled poorly and have agendas pushed into them because instead of hiring a competent focus group they get their shitty hipster friends from their social circles to do it.

Jews drop a few millions onto it and the retards spend about 5% of it while the Jews run off with the rest.

I've been there myself and have watched this unfold exactly the same several times.
Also never go to Hollywood it's as disgusting as DC and NYC combined, also it has some kind of literal sinister aura about it. The place is legitimately evil down to the bedrock.

It's never a central agenda, it's just these assbrained kids throwing shit out like "this character needs to be gay, we have a problem in our society of not enough LGBTQAEIOU and sometimes Y peoples of gender in film" nonstop.
The director won't give a shit 99% of the time because he's getting a cut of the money and fucking off to another movie immediately after anyway.

Don't you think you're overreacting? While there are no doubt individuals who think like that I don't think they're as prolific as you think. Most people are there to either tell a story or make a buck.

Besides, it seems like a pretty tame agenda. What's the worst that's going to happen if I see a few more gays or trannies in my movies? I'm suddenly going to realize I love dick or that I've been in denial that I'm a woman?

Well then my advice is you get out a little bit more. Hollywood is probably one of the biggest shitholes on Earth and is a strong contender for biggest shithole in the USA; you severely underestimate the amount of worthless pieces of shit come from there and reside within. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

To be honest I can careless If they cast a black guy. If A character's race doesn't matter to the story or personality of said character we should judge the actor based on how they can act like the character

Only 13% of the population is black and half of that is in prison. In order to make this kind of choice the color of the skin was deliberately considered and if you're so deluded you believe that it wasn't you need to realize we have not exited the era of SJWs just because Trump won. Unless you have been living on tumblr your whole life what is going on should be obvious to you.

Still doesnt matter, /pol/. You have no idea what was going on during the casting. So what would you know about their decision to cast this actor? Could be for a plethora of reasons. Also if we assume that L was white in a japanese setting(anime) then it makes for L to be black or any other ethnicity in a general white setting(adaption). Either way if you only have a problem with the black casting you are most likely a racist. Also interesting that you arent outraged by watari being asian(less than 5% of the population).

What if they put it to random chance based on the racial proportion of the country. That's still a pretty good chance that he'd be chosen as black with random chance.

In fact, that's not a bad way to determine casting in movies like this. Can't blame anyone over a dice role.

He's an actor. All of his roles are really diverse and surreal to a point. I think he can pull off the mannerisms and personality very well. The look is a shame but, oh well.

Guys, come on, come the fuck on.

The original director left the movie because Hollywood wanted to change the movie badly, make Kira motivation be his mother death instead of his god complex?.

Did you guys really think for a second that the original director of the movie that wanted to keep the movie as close to the original plot as possible would make Hollywood rethink their plans on it?

This movie was going to become a disaster the moment he left production.

>make Kira motivation be his mother death instead of his god complex
While that is cliche and convenient it would actually make way more sense. His random god complex, while quite entertaining, wasnt really realistic and I cant imagine the general audience not rolling their eyes over it. Its an adaption for the general public so expect some changes to the story. Also who wants this to be as close to the original as possible? All you need for it too be called death note is 2 smart dudes trying to outwit eachother and a killer note book. Thats it, thats all i am expecting.
>>
>>149879138
>His random god complex, while quite entertaining, wasnt really realistic

A large portion for its reasoning is because it was overly realistic. A good point of the series is what people would do if given that kind of power, did you even read any of it?

That wouldnt work in a live action movie. Its too out there for western audiences. I would like them to make his transition from a smart pretty boy to a sociopath more natural and believable. Not "oh a killer note book, lets kill everyone i dont deem fit without hesitation".

>>149864372
>L is a creepy looking autist

>>149879358
None of this works with a live action movie because it's a stupid idea and the story should only be delivered in an episodic formula unless you want to have a 4 hour long movie.
Live-action adaptions are retarded.

If that guy isn't some sort of remarkable one of a kind actor, then there was no reason to pick a black guy for the part. He's there either because he got a friend somewhere pulling him or due to SWJ/political bullshit agenda.
