The overall adaptation was pretty bad, but what I thought was interesting (to me at least) is that after a while I stopped noticing "L" was black... as he kinda nailed the character.

Can somebody explain to me how L knew that Light was Kira? I either missed him deducing it or he just pulls it out of his ass

I mean the whole "He's from Seattle the Hostage Situation was on a local channel" makes 0 sense. What if Light was from Boston but just googled "ongoing hostage situation" or some shit. Jesus
>>
>>86887661

How bad is the movie, I mean is it even worth watching?
I watched the anime but don't really care how faithfully they adapt it because it turns to shit after the first 15 episodes or so
>>
>>86889912
Worth a watch, but def nothing special. Some decent gore scenes which surprised me. The movie is very young-adult cheesy and then someone's head explodes.

>>86889868
He deducted that the hostage situation was his first kill (the salute gives it away that something weird was going on) so it would be something local for the killer since it'd be the first thing it sees on their TV. L knew everyone that had access to the local police database as well. Also, he knew the whole Kira=Killer=Light defintiion.
Also, it's a kid's movie, who fucking cares.
>>
>>86889868
After this, L planted info about those two chink gangs on a server in Seattle. When they died, that confirmed L's hunch that Kira was there.
It's about the only good bit of detective work in this movie.

>>
>>86887661
Why would they? I've seen every adaptation of the Death Note manga and this one by far was the most enjoyable precisely because it wasn't a 1:1 copy and instead went back to the basics of the premise and did its own thing. It felt a bit like a B movie at times but that was charming.

This is an adaptation that relocates the story to the US, so it's normal for the characters to not be Japanese. When the Japanese adapt an American story the same way, the characters become Japanese.

>>86890736
No, he was not. Light in the manga/anime is known to be a huge egocentric asshole with delusions of grandure, he's highly skilled in manipulating people and cares about no one but him and his legacy as a '''''God'''''. Movie Light is a huge faggot that shows the book at the first person he sees in order to get some pussy, backfires and MisaMisa ends up becoming Light and Light becomes MisaMisa.

>>86890023
>so it would be something local for the killer since it'd be the first thing it sees on their TV
He literally doesn't see it on TV though, he googles a stream. The writers just took L's argument from the original manga, without adapting it to realities of modern world, even though the other scene DID adapt to the internet age, thus rendering L's deduction moot. Embarrassing.
>>
>>86891004

L's entire gimmick is being a disgusting white guy, though.

He's greasy, unwashed, pale as fuck because he never goes outside, and has bags under his eyes. He has EXPLICITLY white features, because the way L is designed is to enhance that he's a nasty autist.

Black L is just black.

Other then that, it was pretty boring and generic, even if it did interest me a few times. Its annoying people are STILL upset over the casting, even though that wasn't an issue at all with why it wasn't that great. Anime film adaptions happen ALL the time in Japan, they just don't come here or get picked up because of how distribution and Hollywood works. Plus, they make those weird films for them. I love seeing shit adapted into Americanised forms because of how different the approach is, I just wish weebs would get all up in arms about how they couldn't have some fabled Japanese actor flown from Japan to star in some shitty film to play LIGHT TURNER

He wasn't, he was very smart but his main flaw was his vanity.

In episode 1 o 2 he commits his first mistake by killing "Lawliett Eliott" and falling right into L's trap by revealing he's in Japan. And the goes on to commit even more mistakes.

Not really. Light fucked up numerous times in the anime and he was extremely close to get caught by L, the only thing that saved him was the Misa shinigami that decided to kill L for him. Let's not forget that even though Light had an amazing advantage in having a supernatural Death Note that can do pretty much whatever he wants on L, L was always one step ahead of him. The only reason Light really won was because he had plenty of outside supernatural help that L couldn't compete with. And in the end Light lsot to L's legacy so I don't know how all of this makes him a Gary Stu besides being an attractive and intelligent man.

Watched it yesterday. Apart from some well shot scenes it was fucking horrible. I know adapting a tv series (that was by no mean excellent to start with but still much better than this shit) into a movie is hard. You have to cut things and add your own touches so it's not a shot by shot remake and actually has your stamp on it. But by god, some of the decisions they made were baffling. Light wasnt even really Kira, his girl friend basically was. Light was an anti-hero who eventually tries to stop his gf from killing people. L never dies and it's implied he kills light at the end. Oh, and the ending was just straight up retarded. Jesus fuck Netflix.
>>
>>86887723
>ScarJo had same hairstyle so she looked like Major

>>
>>86891403
But Light is deeply flawed, he had such a hard-on for himself that he reveals his location to L just at the beginning of the show. He also made the mistake to trust his minions to do his dirty work as commanded and that backfired.
>>
>>86891451
He was more a smart psychopath than an autist.

L was the autist, he wanted to stop Light because he dislikes changes to his routine.

This film has been very poor so far but the director has made the right choice adding many titillating moments with her.

>fans of death note like it for the characters and Light vs. L cat and mouse
>change every single character and make it into an action flick

Gee, I wonder why nobody likes it...
>>
The guy playing L did an alright job until Watari died and he started stealing cars and shit. But that's up to poor directing. They changed everyone's race and no one really looked like their anime counterpart except Ryuk, but performance-wise L's actor was the closest to the source material. Light is a whimpering beta cuck, Mia is more scheming than Light, Light's father is a bitch, and Ryuk is completely out of character besides his appearance. Script writing overall was poor, with major plot points being noticed from a casual first viewing. Makes one wonder if their 40,000,000 dollar budget was spent on quality control or on the anticlimactic ferris wheel scene.

It's better if you watch it as a comedy. That's what I started doing after Light screamed ~10 minutes into the film.

>>
>>86891672
That's a pretty big fucking leap. It could've easily been any number of people who had access to the police database and were friends with lights dad. How the fuck did L know light had access to the database anyway? Did he just assume because he was smart that he also knew how to hack into a police database? It's been awhile since I watched it but I'm pretty sure in the anime there's much more time and evidence explaining how L knows light is the killer.

Not really, maybe after 5 chapters L is 99% sure Light is Kira but he cannot prove it. Then Light wipes his memory and does the keikaku doori and when L finally gets undeniable proof it's too late.

He's only real flaw was excessive narcissism. From the outset he has his morality set in stone which just causes a lack of development through the course of the series and results in a one dimensional character.

Eh, I thought lights dad did a pretty good job actually. Even if his character didn't match up with the anime, like you said that's more on the director than him. His performance was fine. But yeah, black L was definitely better than white light for whatever that's worth.
>>
>>86891845
See, I didn't expect this going in since everywhere I looked the genres indicated "drama, horror, suspense and thriller" but I agree. I streamed this with some friends today and we all came to the consensus roughly ten minutes in that this should be viewed as a comedy. In that regard, Death Note succeeds. I laughed harder while watching it than I have all week.
>>
Terrible
>>
>>86891905
Until L shows up I think it's also pretty clear the screenwriters wanted to do a teen black comedy with a Death Note. Maybe that was the wrong way to go if they still wanted to include L, but the hilarious shit is gold.
>>
>>86891898
I felt sympathetic for Light's father, but only because he kept going out on a limb for his son who was so clearly Kira. But you're not wrong, he certainly wasn't a bad performance.

On another note, having Watari call Light's personal cell phone to report information about L was the stupidest fucking blunder in the entire film and I'm surprised it was never seized upon by the so-called "greatest detective."

If you know that actor he was fully within his abilities. He plays the same half loser man in every single thing he's in. L and Watari seem pretty accurate.

>>86891872
Like I said, it's been a while since I watched it. But come on, you can't say that L figuring out light was the killer made the same amount of sense in the show as it did in the film. They had so much more time to set it up in the show so I can't blame the director too much but I feel like he could've done a bit more. Adam Wingard isn't a bad director but his last couple films have not been good.

How? Most people who watch the show absolutely despise him because he's a complete arrogant ass, a liar, a perfectionist, anal retentive, and horribly judgmental.

A Gary Stu is somebody who's always right, but it can be definitively argued that he was wrong and flawed from episode 2 onward.

Would have loved if Light never considered Black L to be L as it is too absurd.

>>86891976
YES! I forgot about that but what the fuck man? The cell phone thing was the biggest blunder of the film possibly. I just assumed he was using a burner phone from 711 but then they imply it's his regular cell phone and I was just shocked they could fuck up that bad.
>>
>>86891875

You mean in the show or the god awful movie?

Did you even watch the fucking show? He gets worse and worse as it goes on, defying every single principle he started out with upholding. The only reason people like him is because he's a liar, and all his lies eventually get found out.

This is true. Original Yagami Light starts out wanting to just kill criminals, but by the end he's a ruthless murderer who arguably becomes the thing he meant to destroy. If I recall correctly (everything after L dies is a blur to me) he even writes his own father's name in the book, though his father was on his death bed anyway.

It's ironic, considering netflix-Light turns on Mia instantly at the idea of killing his father to preserve his identity as Kira. Had this been a miniseries instead of a film, we could have marked this unquestioning filial piety as Light's initial line in the sand and compared it to a more ruthless Light in the hypothetical season finale where perhaps Light feels he has no alternative but to put his father's name in the book. Instead we got a film with no sense of progression from any of the characters at all except maybe L, but even his turning point is handled clumsily and its climax is cut short by an ending that leaves much to be desired.

Watari? More like Wataretarded film amirite.

Until the ending at least, when it's revealed that Light had all these crazy tricks up his sleeve. But since it happens after an entire film of him making blunders and fucking up like a retard, the keikaku moment doesn't feel genuine at all. Honestly the ending scene and the rest of the film felt like they were written by two different people, because you're right -- Light is a lapdog through most of the film. He's introduced doing other people's homework for them when he's not getting his face punched in. But suddenly by the end there's a 180 and it comes out of nowhere.

What a fucked up thing to do, honestly.

Also why the fuck did they have to make Light have a tragic backstory? The U.S. has school shooters every day who didn't fit the bill at all. This wouldn't be any different. The terrifying aspect from the Japanese source material hinged on the notion that even a wildly successful and brilliant person like Light could lose their way when given power. This film doesn't have any of that, it just feels like a beaten down kid lashing out.

Oh man and that scene where the guy knocks L unconscious because "muh lord kira" should've just been a concerned citizen thinking he was beating down a mugger in an alley. It should've happened right as L said he was a detective. They could've had all their great social commentary and it would've been funny as fuck.

>>86892715
L pulled that stunt twice in the source material. Once, under the disguise of Lind L Tailor, a convicted death row inmate who read a script for him. And then (after Lind was killed on air, something that should have happened in this adaptation) a second time behind a screen with the letter L on it. L was never that reckless before he learned how Kira killed, and afterwards he only became more cautious. What Light's father did was suicidal and hardly beneficial given what they knew at the time.

The Lind L. Tailor scene REALLY needed to be in this film because it helped L establish three things: 1. that Kira was willing to kill any opposition, 2. That Kira required a name and a face, and 3. the relative location of Kira, due to the recording taking place in a single area at a time. By cutting that moment out, we basically get L piecing together Kira's location, kill method and motivation from almost nothing.

I didn't like L's introduction, he didn't feel smart or special at all.
The ending was ok but at a level of planning Light reached in 3 episodes in the anime.
The best shit about Death Note was seeing two geniuses go at each other, the movie made Light and idiot so all that was left was the note and waifu.

1. Light's dad tells him about watari and L
2. They were looking into the earliest incedents of "strange" behaviour following sudden deaths of criminals. They suspsected the salute guy was on drugs at first, which is why he was acting wierd. but the toxicology report said he was clean, so L deducted that it must've been Kira. This is also further enforced because after said suspicion, L leaks details about small time criminals on small websites with seattle local internet traffic only, and Kira ended up killing those people.

The movie was actually really good. Don't listen to the critics and especially not weeaboos. I've seen the anime series, but not even I am convinced that the series could be adapted in a way that would feel exactly like the original anime.

I don't know what people were expecting regarding a series with THIRTY SEVEN FUCKING EPISODES to be condensed into a 2hr long film, but clearly people are as retarded as you can always expect them to be.

I can post this shit all day. At the end of the day it doesn't matter how many mental gymnastics you do to "explain" it, Japanese anime characters are based on white people and you can notice a pretty stark difference when you see an anime character with japanese facial features compared to anime character with white features.

Depends on the anime, most don't have a realistic style and have plenty of Japanese characters with impossible hair/eye colours.
They just have them all white because they like fair skin, but eastern asians can have fair skin too.

>Japanese anime characters are based on white people and you can notice a pretty stark difference when you see an anime character with japanese facial features compared to anime character with white features.
Absolutely wrong. In most anime the only difference between Japanese characters and foreigners is that the foreigners are always blonde and that's supposed to be weird despite the nips having even weirder hair colours.
You should watch more anime other than the garbage shounenshit you seem to like.

And the last shot of the film is of Mia spinning in a room.

I'm 100% convinced the director uses all shot footage of her for fap material.

It was mostly bad, but I did like that first confrontation between L and Light in the diner. L's line of I don't carry a gun I find them distracting was good until like 15 minutes later where he grabs what looks like his personal gun and then goes on a street chase with it.

Anime characters are not white looking but they're not chink either. They're basically slavs, they have white people features but a rounder mongol face with smaller noses and jaws.

Of course there are genuinely looking japanese characters(fairly common in seinen manga since a lot of them have a style that's more realistic) and characters like Reinhard that are obviously white.

Then there's things like the Aku no Hana anime, literally how japanese people look yet nobody liked the artstyle which shows that anime characters are not japanese looking

>>86893781
> but eastern asians can have fair skin too.
To be honest that's because japanese/chinese/korean have a culture about not getting sun to get paler skin, if you go to the beach in Japan most girls cover themselves or don't go into the sun too much.

If you let them in the sun they get like a SEAsian

Most anime characters actually have the cheek and jawbones of an Asian but other features of the head, like eyes, mouth and hair, are more ambiguous to white. It's why both sides find it easy to relate.

The problem wasnt the characters or their race. It was the film itself which was just a very general idea of the death note. There was no genius level games being played. No cat and mouse traps and escapes. Alot of the movie was bogged down by teen drama and father relationship.

Movie could easily be mistaken for a teen drama movie with the death note just tacked on the love life of light. Not like a police drama where L is using clues and evidence to trap Kira and make him reveal himself.

So the american isnt the problem, its that the directors and producers were creatively retarded and couldnt understand how to use the source material to the fullest.

The writers clearly wanted to do a teen horror comedy with this. That's not an altogether bad thing and I think the strongest parts of the movie are when it sticks to that vision.

But it shoots itself in the foot by including shit that NEEDS to be smartly portrayed.
