I just finished watching it and really liked it. I watched the anime in high school when I was an edgelord but haven't cared about it since. Thought this was a fresh take on the material. Loved the neon light cinematography and synth score. I can see it turning the hardcore fans off but I think regular people and teenagers will like it.

My opinion of the original anime series isn't that high, but this movie did not do it any justice at all.
It took concepts familiar to the original and then took some liberties with said concepts that ended up making the movie a mess.

Why did just putting "Watari" in the book work?
Why was Ryuk so involved in antagonizing Light and pressuring him?
What in the FUCK was Mia's motivation to even want to help Light or even exist as a character at all? And furthermore, what in the FUCK was her motivation to want to steal the note for herself?? I get that she wanted to "Help Light because she thought he was doing a bad job dealing with the investigation", but what would stealing the book for herself accomplish??
Why is it exactly that when L decided to start investigating Light in this adaptation, and had people following him, did he not immediately realize he had a girlfriend, and also follow her?
Why in the fuck was L an overemotional crybaby over Watari? Why did they feel the need to force in a chase scene between L and Light?
I could go on with these questions but I think you get the idea.

I'm surprised by how many posts say L was decent/the only decent thing of that movie, especially after watching the teasers&stuff.

I might give it a shot, fully expecting to be disappointed but who knows.

I only liked DN up to L's death pretty much - like many fans, I believe - so if they cut down on the Near crap this might be for the best.

You agree with EVERYTHING about his methods?

I'm not sure I would've enjoyed the anime as much if I agreed with everything he did...

I think we're supposed (most people anyway) to agree with him killing criminals, to a certain degree at least. But when he goes on with "I'm going to kill cops who try to arrest me because I'm killing criminals", I don't think you're supposed to 100% agree with this without a second thought. I think you're supposed to feel conflicted about it, and (unironically) it really makes you think. About the individual actions, about the big picture; Well he kills 10 cops but the criminals he kills would've killed more, and innocents on top of that, and these 10 cops would've stopped him so these criminals would do as they will... But then what is the limit? what if he has to kill 1000 cops? What if he has to kill 1 million innocents?

This conflict of thought was a big part of the interest.
Much more interesting to me than

also something that makes zero sense at all:

>able to control the wind with the Death Note and making it land on a fire that was conveniently there, even though he'd have absolutely no idea that there was a fire there
>didn't just write that Mia pushes L and he lands into a bottomless pit

The only shit in the movie I liked a tiny bit was how he survived at the end
this basically could have been a movie where a kid gets mind control and uses it to kill criminals, since it's nothing like Death Note

>>86849340
I think it was activated by her touching the Death Note, as if it was an ownership rule or some bullshit, like if she didn't take it then she wouldn't have died, although he wrote her name so she would have definitely died in a minute of a heart attack
I have no idea
>>
>>86849340
If she held onto it for a week, it's her's.

Here's what I don't get, Light wrote that she takes the notebook then dies. He explains it as conditional, like "this person only dies if they do x" but that's not how the death note worked in the movie at any point. Did he seal her fate? Yes. Did he do it knowingly? No, and that's my issue with it. Light was too stupid to use the book until the end, which is when he wrote the Mia book thing anyway. So what the fuck is going on?

I would easily sacrifice my own family to do something like purge the world from the scum. No second thoughts. It's obvious that what Light is doing is a very important matter that will make the world more clean, killing people that try to stop him is the right choice. It's a small price really.

L was actually the best thing about the entire movie and honestly I don't think I'd mind a sequel, I wish they had made far more references to the actual anime and even though the pacing is pretty fucked it was still pretty alright.
So pretty much unless they included the shinigami eye thing there is no way L would have his name revealed so pretty much makes him unkillable
I waited a long time for this movie...
at lest the lighting, the music, and the 80s feel of it was nice
But it wasn't what I wanted or expected
>>
>>86849686
There was a scene in the manga. How Light's reaction was to test it and kill the evil people and how normal human beans wouldn't even try to check if it's real.

>>86848670
Who asked for this? Who in their right mind wanted this to be made?
>>
>>86848846
Just finished it. First half was ok. Cinematography was nice. Then Light basically tells L he's Kira "it's too complicated man you wouldn't understand it!!!! :( "
Light's a beta cuck. His "American girlfriend" is a better Kira than him. Everything is boiled down and Americanized. The fbi Kills were imo kinda clever. More gore was kinda nice. Willem Defoe was great as Ryuk. Was missing his bright green plastic shell.
Also Ryuk is not passive observer. He pushes Light to his first kill, and openly threatens Light when he tries to pussy out. Ends on a cliffhanger. L is emotionally unstable. And black. Sucked. Disappointing.

To be honest I kinda liked it. There were a lot of uncharacteristic moments (light immediately reveals the DN, completely spergs out when seeing Ryuk, L in his entirety etc.) but the ending made it all up for me.

Light's idealistic view is kind of refreshing. Hero Light has never been done before and even though he knows he's in the wrong I thought it was an interesting idea. He's so stupid and easy and should of figured out what's going on before the ending, but I guess Hero Light can't be perfect. Ryuk kind of dumps the whole thing on him and he's scared and doesn't know what's right to do.

Mia is interesting. I don't remember which adaption it was but they'd definitely mentioned in one of them that interactions with the Death Note can drive someone to madness and this is the first time that's really been explored outside of Light. It was easy to spot that she was responsible for the FBI killings but I'm surprised they made her the central villain in the story, until Light outplays her at the end. She's probably the reason they pushed the Kira/Godhood thing so much despite Light wanting to just help the world.

L is 50/50. He's a really good L, but he's an imperfect one. Maybe he hasn't been doing this as long as Manga L. He's still reliant on Watari and, like the original L, is still somewhat of a lost child. The fact that Watari's death kind of breaks him is interesting, since he never loses his cool in any other version. L's so determined in his role that he must be Justice that he kind of just melts and tries to do whatever it takes to win.

Ryuk is great, I'm not entirely fond of the fact he pushes it onto Light rather than letting him discover it himself. Though admittedly, that and several other scenes work together well to mask the fact that Mia is the real villain, a lot of the movie makes it look like Ryuk is evil until the Mia reveal.

>'Watari' in the book working is stupid
>Music too loud over dialogue at points
>Open ending despite the fact its pretty obvious Light is Kira to the police

eh.

Japanese Live Action Trilogy/Quadrilogy if you count L Change the World is still the best version of Death Note.

>>86850566

Light's a fucking monster in every other version are you crazy
>>
>>86850589
He did nothing wrong.
>>
>>86850521
He is a whining bitch throughout, he never becomes Kira. He refuses to kill any innocent even the ones going after him. Refuses to kill his dad, and L's right hand man.

Basically he has been rewritten into an anti-hero for an American audience who can't bare a story that follows a villain.

>>86849415
In the live-action series it's L Lawliett, so it's probably something similarly stupid.

He would have to write a cause of death for Ryuk after writing his name. Is /tv/ this retarded?

Because he has the second death note that he used to kill Light, of course none of this will be revealed till the sequel comes out.

He didn't write one for Watari.

Haha no, he not only wins, he's more 'good' in this movie than any previous version of Death Note.

He literally kills no innocents, pulls off a huge keikaku doori for finale in his favor and L is left mind broken by him

The ending is an ambiguous cliffhanger where one of two things happen:

Either Light has gotten away with it and L is left a broken shell of a man, or L snaps and writes Light's name in the Death Note out of rage, becoming a murder himself

Both ways Light wins.

the movie was surprisingly okay. the nigger ruined it for me though. overacting, bad acting. he was bad from start to finish.

Mia was a straight bitch, lemme just say that. She through Light's life over an edge for some bullshit plan that almost didnt work, then dumbass Light saves his own ass. Light had zero, ZERO intelligence feats besides doing some fucking to sell to other students for cash. Then in a turn of events, he does something which is closest to the source material Light, he planned everyone's steps and saved his ass. This is bullshit, they didnt even try to make Light smart because he didnt even try to act like he wasnt Kira for more than a second when L talked to him in the cafe. Light is a complete idiot he could've at least held off L so the pressure wouldnt be up his ass then L would've been even more shocked when Watari went to get L's birth documents which would give Light more than enough time to get L's name. L by the half way point proves he shouldnt even have the L name when he loses his fucking cool to the point of willingly trying to commit homicide and nearly getting others hurt. Don't get me wrong it was enjoyable I would give it a 7.5, but as an adaptation it falls flat when trying to adapt an manga and anime which I've watched over 30 times for each. I know Death Note like the back of my hand and this is insane. Even the Japanese Live action films from a decade ago at least tried. Then of course they needed to have a big hollywood scene with the ferris wheel. Fuck me man this is insane. I feel sequel baited out of the ass and I actually want them to try. First, when Light had a hard time writing down a name in the Death Note during hoemcoming I thought it was his dad but it was shown to be Misa, but I think that was on purpose as it's possible he wanted his dad to find out he was Kira before killing him which he probably wrote in the Death Note while he was in the computer lab during homecoming. I think L is dead, but unlike Light's father theory I just proposed I don't remember a detail which could help this one out.

Honestly I felt he had delusions of thinking that he could just turn shit back.

One thing about the original manga is that he thought he had a friend in Ryuk to the bitter end. He begs and pleads with him to try and pull him out of the mess he eventually gets himself into in the finale.

The way he was screaming for him to "take it back" at the wheel was like a nod to that in my eyes.

The casual fans who have seen the anime, who also think this was good are transposing their anime feels onto this hot garbage.

The Netflix adaptation basically lacks everything worthwhile about previous incarnations of the story. It does not morally or intellectually challenge the audience and it also fails as a character study of either the very outre protagonist or antagonist. Neither Light or L are interesting characters and Light specifically is made into a more stereotypical, central casting character with absolutely nothing special about him. Making L "blacker" also worked at cross purposes to the drama aspect.

Mia was the best character as she was basically the real Kira and drove the films only questioning of moral premises, but she was also not the focus, is largely unmotivated and was probably meant to be an unambiguous villain.

This is just a dumb action movie without any action and will be taken as such by general audiences.
>>
>>86853993
I am not a casual fan. I have spent most of my life dedicated to Death Note, I probably know it on the same levels as the authors. This movie fails to complete any character arcs, has way too many flaws, and disregards character traits just to get through the film.
>>
>>86853648

You actually saw the Kite movie? I can't bring myself to do it. It's still in my case. No one will watch it with me and I don't wanna do it alone.
>>
>>86853993
It's not loyal the manga at all, it's really sad.

Light not being handsome, intelligent and witty and L being black are just signs that Hollywood doesn't care about the source material.

The only good parts were the music and some of the shots. There was no Ray Penber subplot, Light's father did not fill his role as chief of the police.

Mia was not an idol, but rather a Stacy cheerleader. Light was stupid enough to let her in on the fun, endangering everything, which she did.

I'm...just sad.

>>
this is just making me want to rewatch the jap movies
>>
>>86854149
It's not even entirely that. Unlike the manga and anime, Misa doesnt owe Light her fucking life, all Mia got out of the situation in the film was she was pretty much getting a high off of killing criminals. In my opinion Mia is the most interesting character in the goddamn film. She puts Light's life on the line for a faulty plan, acts greedy, claims she loves Light, gets a high off of being Kira, yet look at where it ends her. Because between her and Light I think Light was the lesser of two evils.

the first fucking death note scene shows a bunch of ridiculous shit happening to take someones head off.... if it's possible it happens. the ferris wheel busted because it was possible

now tell me why would the page landing in fire not be possible?
even if there wasnt a barrel of fire just sitting there, a fire would have started somehow from anything going on and the page would have fallen in it because that's what he wrote and it was possible.

if you want to bitch about something, the one page burning rule is dumb to start with. other adaptions of death note explicitly define that destroying a page does not nullify what has been written.

It's the sequel hook. Light wrote down L's name, bLack will die before writing Light's name. Near (a latino, called Cerca) will take on the case.

It's the most divergent adaption yet and that's a good thing. Who the hell needs version 5 of Death Note aiming to be the same general thing again with different actors?

lol @ people saying they're going back to the Japanese live action movies instead. Yes, I too like Japanese movies and their sub-Asylum level acting and productions values

at least that adaption fixed up some plot holes and made the best ending and generally did new things with it. anime adaption is just the manga adaption with worse animation.

I disagree, I think it is the basis for adapting it into the moving image. I think it did some things wrong and the other adaptations have done some interesting things, but the anime is the most solid by far. Especially the first series before it devolves into after the first L's death.
>>

This is the definitive version of Death Note.
>>
>>86855770
tell me more, I heard they changed the ending.
>>
>>86855805
the animated movies are just condensed versions of the show with some extra scenes
I think only the live action movies changed the ending
>>
>>86855242
>the main complaint is "not muh Death Note" autism
Not at all. I think you could change almost everything about Death Note while maintaining the same overall thematic thrust and wind up with something interesting.

This lacked any sense of suspense. The audience isn't challenged to follow Light and L's machinations. It's also morally unambiguous and presented as such. It's uninteresting. Not a movie which activates the almonds, and not meant to be. On top of it the drama is bad because the characters are completely undeveloped stereotypes. It's sterile and heartless.

It's literally the opposite of what you claim, in being completely devoid of what made Death Note good in its' broadest strokes while nonsensically maintaining the superficial elements of the source material. It is a movie which is Americanized in terms of its' tropes (which is bad) with Japanese elements overlayed for no reason other than as cargo cult film making imitating the form without understanding the content.

No one calls a notebook a "note" in America. What is a "Death God"? Who names their kid "Light"? The whole L character's background lifted straight from the source material is completely out of place for the setting and tone of the film. This is stuff which is only fodder for the fanbase. Superficially it is too Death Note for western audiences, and simultaneously not Death Note enough in being boring and failing to actually challenge the audience in any way.
>>
>>86855768
You were baiting for replies because original Light was a sociopath and an unambiguous villain, a thing abundantly clear even before what he did to Ray Penber and Naomi.

OG Light is what Mia is in the Netflix movie
>>
>>86856056
Light was not an unambiguous villain
>>
>>86855960
THIS is why the last Japanese Death Note film worked THIS is why Death Note's central themes can work THIS is why I fucking love this franchise
>>86856056
He is a clear anti-villain
>>
keep the production budget, turn it into a mini series, flesh out some more details/rules/twists, limit wingard's access to his mixtape. then it could have been something more interesting. as it stands there are too many "what the fuck am i watching" tier adaptation choices.
>>
>>86856056
wrong
>>
I actually really liked it aside from Light being a beta and L giving up on his checkmate so there could be an action packed climax.
>>
So does L kill Light in the end or what?
>>
None of what made Death Note good was in that movie.
>>
>>86856211
It's ambiguous, but if my theory on the possible sequel happening then I think Light will kill both his father and L.
>>
>>86856218
There was a little bit of Light and L cat and mouse, that's pretty much it though.
>>
>>86856159
>what the fuck am i watching
this is pretty much my reaction to the whole thing
>>
>>86850538
>Light's idealistic view is kind of refreshing. Hero Light has never been done before
Light has always been an idealistic hero in every single version. i think what you mean to say is SANE, this is definitely the sanest version of Light.

>He's so stupid and easy and should of figured out what's going on before the ending, but I guess Hero Light can't be perfect
so here's the thing about og-light vs sane-light.... making him sane means they have to find a new way to close the net on him. the original way of closing that net was the character-flaw-as-plot-device but they found a new way to do it via Mia/Misa which gels perfectly with her as a personality and has the neat side effect of making this the smartest Misa. i think it's a great choice for both character changes.
HOWEVER the character-flaw-as-plot-device still has to be in effect, the death note is such a perfect killing device that you cant close the net without it. og-light flaw was that he was competitive. sane-light flaw is that he wants the girl.

>I don't remember which adaption it was but they'd definitely mentioned in one of them that interactions with the Death Note can drive someone to madness
this has been a line in every version since the manga, although not every version means it literally. some are like "absolute power corrupts". the jp movies though imply it's literal and the new jp movies (Light Up The New World) make death note user insanity a canon part of their universe.

>Japanese Live Action Trilogy/Quadrilogy
the manga->movie adaption was just 2 movies. i expect this american version to follow suit and finish the game in a second movie.
>>
i liked it but I never read the manga or watch the anime so I didn't know anything about it. i tried watching the anime a few years ago but I really don't have the attention span to watch a fucking cartoon. Also I'm an adult
>>
>his name is Light
Changing his name would be better than this. No one is named Light. Mid 2000 translaters were dumb enough to translate the word instead of recognizing that a name is a name no matter what language, doesn't mean this adaption has to have the most immersion breaking mc name of all time.
>>
>>86856434
I knew a white kid named Darkness who lived in a shelter for two years until his folks got a home
>>
>>86856434
it's mentioned that his mother was a "hippy type" so it's not that far fetched
>>
>>86849588
>>Ultimately kills Light, in a fit of sadness, when his character in the original would never use the Death Note
What did he mean by this?
>>
>>86856434
In Japanese his name is RAITO, not as in a name, but as in Light.
He is supposed to be called Light.
>>
>>86856429
The basic differences are Light isn't a whiny bitch and is actually a bit of a Chad; he doesn't need Misa to do his dirty work for him, he's completely willing to kill innocents when necessary; and L never flips out and tries to kill Light, he keeps his desire for a perfect checkmate until the end.
>>
>>86856434
they could have changed it to Wright.
it's fine though, he's post-millennial, they have retarded af names.
i mean i read the manga since it was releasing in 2004...there's probably a ton of 12yo kiddos walking around right now with the name Light.
>>
>>86856525
>he doesn't need Misa to do his dirty work for him
he has he halve her life twice for him in the manga to get the eyes...and the eyes are totally cheating and he knows it.

I like how this death note apparently works like a programming sequence.

IF Mia takes the book, she dead in this very specific way that takes wind directions and a fire barrel near into account.

Why not do the same for watafake? Watari hands me the information I need, if he cannot give this to me in time he's spared and contacts me to rewrite his name, if he IS successful, he doesn't die.
>>
Were Near and Mello in it? Were they cute?
>>
>>86856594
I mean he's not so scared of hurting innocents that Misa has to do it behind his back to keep him safe. What you're talking about is more taking advantage of her, which this Light would never do either because of his refusal to let go of his morals.
>>
>>86856705
No. The orphanage/Detective academy is a plot point though, so that's probably meant to seed them for later.
>>
>>86856350
>L is literally chasing light
thats hilarious, this movie really bad, the only good part is light's final keikaku

The sequel is coming, with a REAL Misa. This. wasn't Misa at all, can't you see that?

>>86857177

This sums this film up.

>>86857217
I believe a sequel may be coming where they address the complaints but Mia is Misa, this is reality

Had a pretty good laugh.
Is this suppose to be a dark comedy?
>>
>>86856682
as far as the page burning, it's a dumb rule in itself but as for how he burned it....
from the first scene the death note is used in, it sets up that anything that is possible will happen even if it involves a bunch of shit outside of anyones control to happen.
this is different than any other version of DN, which typically only allows you to control the actions of the people who you're killing... but since it's set up it's not like it's an asspull at the end, the page goes in the fire because he wrote down that the page goes into the fire. thats the rules of this adaption... every adaption of DN has changed the death note rules in some way.

now about this "programming"...
in every version the death note will refuse to do it's controlling stuff if whats written is impossible or breaches some other rule (like not being able to make someone kill someone else)... so in a sense every version of the death note has been able to have break; cases.
however i dont think if cases are possible and i dont think he used one...
i just rewatched the part with his keikaku doori naration... he never says "IF" he wrote "when she accepts the death note".
i think he thinks "accepts" means he didnt force her to do it but he did, he killed her, at that point whether she wanted to take it or not she was compelled to simply because it was possible to.
he killed her.

>>86848670
kek, terrible adaptation but funny b film despite it not trying to be one.

Felt like one of those fandubbed episodes
