What the fuck was this

A somewhat faithful adaption whose story is a super condensed version of the anime.

>>86943345
Best version so far of Death Note.

>>86943383
>somewhat faithful
In the sense that it's called Death Note and there is a Death Note.

Im glad they picked a Jewish 30 year old to play a teenaged redhead

that was a nice touch

>>86943383
Light """""""""""""""""""""Turner"""""""""""""""""""""" isn't even remotely similar to his anime counterpart.

>can control Watari to do whatever he want regarding L for the next 48 hours
>doesn't just write down that he shoots L in his sleep or lynches him but instead has him drive out to some spooky orphanages looking for documents
Also, wasn't "Watari" just a codename and he had a real secret name like L?
And if his name was just Watari then why the fuck would he walk around showing his face and giving away businesscards when he was part of a investigation that even before meeting Light made it clear that Kira killed through names/faces?

I mean what the fuck.

yeah how can you forget

Is this going to be our next BvS?

i.e. we ironically praise it until we unironically praise it

What an amazing work of art. This film and its director understand just how dumb the source material is and ramps up the ridiculousness and camp to the next level while forgoing the self-serious nature of the manga. The director wears his B-horror movie influence on his sleeves and is able to perfectly capture the nerdy anti-social loner type characters put to their extremes to the point that you're no longer able to idolize them. Every scene plays out like a microcosm of contemporary American trends in storytelling. This is easily the best comedy film of the year.

Someone post it

>>86944458
The anime is much more serious than the movie. Light and L are both geniuses, not losers, and their cat-and-mouse game is mind-blowing. In the movie it's so pathetic. I highly recommend the anime.

Just watched this, I'm speechless. Before this I thought Suicide Squad was the worst movie I've seen this year. Boy was I wrong. Suicide Squad is a fucking masterpiece compared to this.

I watched this last night and thought it was terrible. Should I watch the anime

>>86944568
Nah, the anime is more boring

>>86944538
I liked Suicide Squad. A lot. Watched it thrice.

I guess you need to be some hero autist to dislike it

>>86944469
then why are you surprised when they do stupid shit in movies and tv?

>>86944568
The anime is millions times better.

In the movie Light is a pussyslave loser unable to come up with any plan, can't do anything by himself. Ryuk keeps screwing him over, etc.

In the anime both Light and L are infinitely smarter. Light is the real mastermind, not Mia. Mia is actually his slave, not the opposite. Ryuk is Light's greatest friend, and so on.

Just watch the first and second episode, you'll have seen by then. The battle between Light and L through TV in Episode 2 is so godlike and pure unironical kino.

>>86944568
no if you didn't like this the anime will suck for you

it's almost exactly the same except it takes 26 fucking episodes to drag out and there's like 2 or 3 L's

>>86944594
Are you sure you are not talking about the animated movie Assault on Arkham which featured Suicide Squad as well? Because that movie I liked as well, the live action version was just awful.

>>86944568
Read the manga.

>>86944716
This.

Manga > Anime, lads

>>86944673
Retard, the two are completely unrelated. The anime is about a battle between the world's greatest detective and the world's greatest mastermind, this movie is just teen drama.

Regarding the amoutn of Ls in the anime, it's just one. The other two detectives are M (Mello) and N (Near). These are not L by any means, they use completely different techniques and such.

>>86943827
i thought this was retarded too but looking back over it i think they just poorly explained the burn rule....
i think it's that the person who wrote the entry has to be the one to burn it.
which is why in the final scene he specifically writes out that she pulls the page out of the death note and then its burned rather than him doing it himself or just writing that that page drops out and is burned. any other scenario would not nullify his death.

of course the one free backsie burn rule itself is stupid.
and the final destination tier control is also stupid.

Here, /tv/.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWB6Db1y2iw

This is the scene that plays when Light meets Ryuk. You know, in the movie he does some faggot scream and shits his pants the entire time.

The anime, on the other hand...

>>86943827
>>86944849
oh and you need to pay attention to his keikaku doori narration....there was no "if" because there is no "if"s nor did he expect an "if" to occur, the entire ending was his plan to save his life, kill mia for breaking his ethics code (now realizing she murdered the FBI agents and defacto killed Watari) and gives himself an alibi completely for everyone but L (and his Dad after he figures it out) and gives himself plausible deniability for anything wrong Kira has done (he literally was a good boy the whole film).

also his previous conversations with L seed the concept that theres another Kira or that the Shinigamis can go rogue.

You know those weebs in school who acted like anime characters IRL?

Here's the thing, he wants to kill him because he wants to continue being Kira because that's the only reason why Mia likes him.

After Mia's betrayal, all he wants is to stay alive and get out of the shit he's in.

It was shit. Utter shit, me and a couple of my buddies watched it and all throughout we pinched our noses and shouted "PEE YOOOW this film is a Stiiiiiinker. STINKY POO"

This, Light in the original is a megalomaniac who thinks he's a god so he kills the investigation team because they defy his authority, but it made no sense for Netflix Light and Mia to target cops when they were in it to "kill the bad guys"

>>86945721
Yeah, which is why the movie really should not have included this stuff.

>>86945551
Which is why I hate the anime.

In the manga after Light is cornered Mikami turns on him and calls him out for being a mass murderer that turned him into one also without killing himselg by sudoku by pen.

>>86944293

>>86945891

So much wasted potential. I think Light and L never did a direct confrontation in the movie.

For those wondering if the anime is worth watching, this is the sort of shit the anime presents you:

>>86946074
it was a dumb pointless thing to do in the original
it's a dumb pointless thing to do in the netflix
the only difference is Light isn't the dumb one this time round and they dont pretend like it was a smart plan.

just in case you think the FBI killing in the original was actually clever... keep in mind that it's solely responsible for narrowing down L's search from 100s of people to "it's him" AND his fiance would have destroyed Light had he not lucked out in running into her.

In the end he wrote in the note "mia dies after taking the note and ripping the page which ultimately burns". So he sentenced her to death while thinking that meant "IF she decides to take the note she will die".

>>86943345
The part I hated the most was the Keikaku doori at the end. They gave us zero evidence that this version of Light was intelligent enough to pull any of that.

>>86947521
>one them also wrote Fant4stic
I'm not surprised

>>86947722
>intelligent

All he wrote was the bare minimum needed to live, kill Mia, and get the book back. It wasn't some clever plan.

Read the manga instead. People will tell you the manga and anime are identical, and in some ways that's true, but there are some crucial details I feel the manga handles better.

he was not testing anything, he explains it with narration at the end. the explanation he gives Mia is a lie (and red herring for the audience) as part of him playing the role in the script he wrote.

>>86947514
>>86947940
Its better than the netflix shit

>good things
cinematography and sets were nice enough, the movie's much better to look at compared to the Japanese movies and TV show which follow the usual 'film it like a soap opera' convention of modern Japanese entertainment.

Misa, or in this case Mia, is the best she's ever been. She was always one of the worst anime characters of all time, here she gives a shit performance but she's not nearly as annoying.

Willem Dafoe is absolutely perfect for Ryuk.

>the bad
literally everything else. script is a mess. L gives a shit performance and wears a mask and hood the whole goddamn time, Light isn't established as being smart enough, L only discovers who he is through stupid logic leaps unlike the manga version where Light makes several mistakes.

>>86948098
I liked L but otherwise agree

>>86948093
It's really not because it still has the second half of the anime/manga, which will always permanently forever be worse than the Netflix shit.

>>86948098
Mia was much more annoying in the movie.

She was introduced as a 10/10 gorgeous girl, but she quickly became annoying.

>>86943642
>Also, wasn't "Watari" just a codename and he had a real secret name like L?
his real name in the manga/anime was
Quillish Wammy and he ran the orphanage that L was from

not that the movie gave half a fuck about what happened in the source material though

Why did L and Watari use Deckard's gun? Are they huge fans of Blade Runner?

>>86948155
Death Flix L is an amalgamation of L and Near and Mello.

>>86948199
Well, this seems to be the most realistic thing.

>>86948199
She didn't have that absolutely horrible anime club member high pitched overly energetic banshee shriek of a voice, the very fact that I didn't have to mute the TV every time she opened her mouth makes her better than the anime and other live action adaptations of her.

>>86948152
Why? His performance was subpar and he had zero identity or charisma. Compare with the Japanese movies where he carries the screen the entire time.

>>86948199
they really rushed her character also
they could have pulled her real personality by having her smoking in a later scene instead of looking like a bored bitch during practice and lighting up in the middle of school

>>86948231
I always thought its a space gun. The question was more likely, why does he have a space gun instead of just a normal one. Why is L using a gun at all?

>>86948155
>implying Netflix is not casting Near and Mello as transgenders aromantic fluid demipokemons as we speak.

>>86947314
MMM WATCHA SAAAY

Why did L run around, used a gun and did all that public stuff? He never really did anything like this in the anime except maybe public stuff but even that anonymously.

I had a crush on a girl and I think she liked me too, so I invited her to watch the movie with me yesterday. When Kenny got decapitated she start vomiting, apparently because that triggered a bad memory or something, she didn't explain it properly. I helped her clean up and I think she got uncomfortable since she started crying and ran away before even finishing cleaning up. She forgot her purse in my house. I texted her about that and she said I could keep it.

This movie destroyed my love life.

so fuck off faggot.

>>86948730
I'm wondering if I have any guilt in this.

>>86948462
What's in the purse?

Why does Light Turner want to kill L when he's so resistant to killing any other innocent, including Watari?

>>86948902
"whats in the purse?" -Brad Pitt

>>86948940
Because the people who made this movie are stupid.

>>86948940
Because in a deleted scene L cucked Light.

>>86948940
he doesnt.
just because he wants his name doesnt mean he wants to kill him.

>>86948966
Brad Pitt is inside the purse?

>>86948745
>lets mix prefectly good characters with others so something weird comes out
Wew. Well this is really dumb. Light was actually only insane at the very end where he knew he could do shit anymore. Matsuda was such a funny character while dad being more serious, i cant see how they could put them both into one. I cant even say anything about mikami because he just was a case for himself.
Death flix isnt finish right? I didnt watch the movie yet. But if L is L+Near+Mello (wich already cant work), does that mean that L wont die or something?

>>86949012
it's a reference to a movie you should know if you're posting on /tv/
check my se7en

>>86949006
Why would he need the name than?

>>86948462

why didn't light just influence watari to tell him what L's name is? the fucker sings him to sleep he should know his name

>>86948796

>>86946056

>>86949066
if L dies it will be at the end after he's forced Light to be an actual baddy.

>>86949106
to checkmate him.
he already told L he is Kira, he's seen his face, once he has his name he can simply tell L he knows his name and prove that he's not the bad guy by not killing him despite having beaten him.

>>86949125
anon is making the point death note has several movies and a tv series it's discussion is warranted on /tv/

>>86949188
And then what, L will just go full Luther King and leave him alone?

How the fuck did Watari know Light's phone number, I thought you couldn't just give people divine information? Like it had to be something that's not infeasible for them to do it.

Also
> Watari was his real fucking name

>>86949121
This, i want to see that sexy purse and its contents.

>>86949188
wew 2 (you)s for me.

Firstly, isnt it to actually catch Kira instead of making him a bad guy? I dont understand that.

>to checkmate him
He told L that he is Kira? What the fuck is this. I really should watch that movie because this doesnt make sense at all. He killed other people with the book right? So how can he be not the bad guy for not killing L but still killing other people? I really dont understand this movie and the more i ask the more questions i get.

>>86949340
He knew because L was investigating Light.
> Watari was his real fucking name
That was unforgivable.

>>86949340
Watari definitely knew Light's number. He was L's prime suspect.

>>86944568
The anime's a lot of fun. Maybe a little overrated, but still great. I say go for it, anon. The dub's pretty decent too.

Look at how much of a cold motherfucker Light is in the anime:

>"No"
>"Ok"

>>86949370
this light kills people out of a sense of justice and revenge because his mom got killed by a mugger
mia is the one that's power hunger and more in character to yagami killing the fbi agents and wanting to kill light's dad
by the end the combination of getting fucked over by mia and ryuk to some extent forces him to try and cover his tracks and get out with the netflix version of his keikaku doori

Does L actually kill Light in the end or is that only implied?

The director said there will probably be a sequel but I can't imagine one without Light.

>>86943345
I think this post does a good job explaining the movie
https://nemuromemorialhall.wordpress.com/2017/08/26/on-netflix-death-note-adaptation/

>>86949516
it's left up in the air, but heavily implied he got his name written down since ryuk starts laughing at him in the last scene

>>86949298
obviously the plot is not something that allows a peaceful ending but Netflix Light makes it pretty clear the whole way throughout that
1) he doesnt kill innocents under any conditions, he was going to use his one page burn to save watari.
2) straight up admits to being Kira and tries to make L realize theyre on the same side
i cant see a Light that does all that as someone who kills L, the name is for proof of victory, proof of moral superiority, or at the very least leverage

>>86949370
the Netflix movie offloads all the "bad" kills (FBI, Watari) onto Mia.... who he then kills despite wanting the puss. aside from maybe the first kill of the bully (cant really blame him at that point) he never kills an "innocent".

>>86949401
yoo're opinion a shit

>>86949469
Kek what? That was not happening man. Is there some clip on youtube where i could see that?
What ambitions and goals does Light even have? Wasnt he supposed to be a god of a new world?
How does he play checkmates if the Kira already conceded? Why would he want L in his team? I dont understand anything. I need to watch the movie.

Several possibilities depending on whether a sequel is made or not.

L writes Light's name.
L writes Light's dad's name.
L writes his own name.
L doesn't write anything. Does he even understand that writing names on the page will kill the person?

did his parents forget to give him a first name?

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

>>86949659
"playing for checkmates" in this context is that L still doesnt know the mechanism for killing and has definitive proof that Light is Kira.
and Light wants to make a deal with L because he considers himself truly to be a good guy hero unlike every other adaption of Light which realizes he's a bad guy or at least thinks himself above mortals. Netflix Light mentality is that if L is a good guy and he is a good guy then there is no reason they shouldnt work together.
the reason L doesnt agree (besides plot) is hat like every other L and Near he's only in it for the game.... and in fact in the movie his first trap involves sacrificing criminals like the Lind L Tailor scenario except they're not even in jail on death row so he's the least law abiding L in any adaption (also steals a car and i doubt that gun is legal).

>>86949784

Unironically actually fucking kino. It effectively communicates Light's journey from "I can't kill those people" to "I have to kill criminals" in a 2 minute montage, and makes it feel like an almost sacred act. Like he's carrying out divine work.

Shusuke Kaneko's two Death Note films are the ultimate adaptation. Kaneko understood the blatant flaws of Death Note, hell, it almost seems he outright hated most of what was bad about it, so he cut it out entirely.

>>86943469
You mean Mia?

>>86950025
>"playing for checkmates" in this context is that L still doesnt know the mechanism for killing and has definitive proof that Light is Kira.

The funny thing is in this version of the story L could get that by literally just saying "don't worry I'll help you out man, explain to me what's going on" during that conversation and Light would spill the beans since he was basically begging him for help anyway.

>>86950028
I was going to ignore the movie, but my friend put it on while I was working.
The movie deeply offended me. It's like a parody.
I hardly ever go off on something like this. I didn't give a shit about Ghostbusters, The Thing, Total Recall, Evil Dead, or Fright Night being remade, but this made me mad.
It's like the director hates the source material. He's going as far as saying the original is heavily flawed and his version is better.

Anime Light:
> I'll kill everyone via heart attacks, killing some of those in prisons in more obvious ways to distract from the fact that I am also actually killing those that oppose me subtly in the background.

Netflix Light:
> I'LL MAKE EVERYONE DIE IN REALLY IMPROBABLE AND OBVIOUS WAYS, JUST LIKE MY FAVORITE MOVIE FINAL DESTINATION

would have been better if they skipped the high school shit set light up as a young cop disillusioned because muh mom and trying to outwit the cops/dad with L being brought in at the end for their shitty sequel hook

It'd be interesting if both Light and L were Christians.

Because then they might have had to give Ryuk more than 5 minutes of screen time.

>Also why didn't Based Mia had a female Shinigami in love with her?
They probably blew most of the budget on Ryuk and couldn't afford to have other shinigami, or show the shinigami realm for that matter.

>>86950277
yeah he's objectively the stupidest L
but thats what happens when you add Near and Mello to his personality
he only cares about winning in the way he wants to win, pretending to be friends with Light (like L actually did) is too impure a way to win so he's confrontational instead.

>>86950426

Fucking shit...i actually didn't realise they didn't even once show the Shinigami world.

>>86950478
>pretending to be friends with Light
>pretending
L was actually a friend to Light. He really wished from the bottom of his heart that Light wasn't Kira and by the end he was actively trying to convince himself that Light was innocent.

>>86950299

Was he even doing it on purpose? I don't think it was ever established the default kill method is heart attack, I got the impression the Death Note would just randomly generate a death from the persons surroundings if one wasn't specified.

>tfw we wont have this moment
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpfZF6H8xMs
People mostly hated near but i really light him. Also watch the aesthetic with the chains and L at the end. Anime had so much symbolic stuff.

>>86950565
depends on the version, some L's are lonelier than others.

>>86950595
Well, Ryuk is actively vindictive in the Netflix version, so it's implied with the "dealer's choice" thing that Ryuk gets to pick the method if Light doesn't specify it.

>>86950595
the default heat attack is in the rules of the death note

>>86950565
Seconded.
On the other hand Light...he was a sociopath,he really didnt want friends. It was all a competition for him.

>>86950595
The default death is heart attack, that's in the rules.

>>86950600
Near's problem was that he wasn't interesting and that Mello was far more interesting but ended up just sidelined into a minor villain.

The true problem with the second half wasn't the detectives though, it was Light devolving into a straight up mustache twirling Disney villain. I guess the author wanted to tell a generic "absolute power corrupts absolutely" story but it was just shit, the entire thing that was interesting about Death Note was the cat and mouse between two people who are in a moral grey area.

Netflix Light was too much of a pussy not considering killing his own family.

>30 min in
>sex scene already
>l is not even introduced

>They're having sex while killing people
I was baffled

Yes, indeed. You got me.
Once upon a time I was an avid collector of crazy Japanese MADs:

Mia clearly had a case of hybristophilia, that's why she liked the idea of Light jumping to murder if she cheated on him, when in reality he was a cuck who wouldn't do anything

It'd be interesting to do Death Note from the perspective of L, not knowing who has the Death Note.

it was decent considering how low my expectations were, his dad is played by a good actor, at the end of the day it doesn't detract from how good the anime was so why not be open minded

Anime Light is an absolute nutcase. From episode 2 on, his actions aren't supposed to be justifiable.

>>86950565
>>86950661
L's Loneliness starts out as non-existant (or super minute aspect) in the manga and is ramped up in the anime and movies... in the drama he's making all sorts of excuses for Light with how lonely he is (or maybe drama Light is just that good at making friends)

Light's competitiveness is a defining trait in the manga and anime and movies... but it's also clearly plot motivated to create unforced errors which is why it's a trait that's mostly ditched in the drama and Netflix.

>>86950565
Word of God says otherwise. He was lying because he was pissed at Light and wanted to make him feel bad.

>>86951267
Ignoring the TERRIBLE second half of the anime/manga, the only unjustifiable thing he does is sociopathically torture Naomi Misora.

>>86951436
His killing of her is no different than his killing of the FBI agents.

>>86951471
Nah those people were legit out to fuck him up and he killed them normally from a distance.

Naomi he got personally involved in and took pleasure in going WELL OUT OF HIS WAY to torture and use her.

>>86951471
It was literally self-defense, had he not done that he would have died. She wasn't planning to burn his page.

>>86951534
Well, it's not self-defense when you're the aggressor.

>>86949557
>it was shallow on purpose

hmmmm

>>86951519
>Nah those people were legit out to fuck him up

not really, they were just investigating him, just like Naomi

He was killing drug-dealers and burglars. He thought death was an appropriate punishment for *any* crime - and that somehow includes suspecting him of being Kira. He also just plain loved killing people. I'm gonna have to go with Near on this one.

>>86951590
The way L pins Light in 10 minutes on the movie doesn't make sense.

It made sense in the anime, it made sense in the manga, but I can't understand the logic in the movie.

I can't understand how a guy killing people with a note can be detected in like 2 days.

>>86951590

Is it breaking the NAP if you are only killing people who are breaking the NAP by trying to stop you from killing people who already break the NAP by hurting people who don't break the NAP?

>>86951711
He's killed 400 people by that point.
Probably more like 1-2 months.

>>86951711
It doesn't make sense, and the reason for that is that they decided heart attacks were too boring and that they needed Final Destination kills.

>>86951673
Naomi had a personal grudge reason to kill him. that said he totally tortures her and takes pleasure in doing so.

>>86951702
the crime rate went down by 90% across most of the civilized world thanks to him. And yes criminals should just be offed, they contribute nothing and should be as little of a drain on resources as possible.

>>86951702
Only very stupid people - or edgy kids, who are very stupid - defend Light. He was obviously in the wrong.

I shouldn't even need to point that it is very likely more than 5% of Light's actual "criminal" victims were probably innocent. The US' death row has a rate of 4% innocents, and these people underwent millionaire legal procedures to ensure they WERE guilty. I wonder how safe Light's judgment is.

>>86951820
>the crime rate went down by 90% across most of the civilized world thanks to him.
And the entire world was being held hostage by him. Not a fair trade.

>>86951783
No, that wasn't the problem.

Just think about it. They managed to pin Light by simply analyzing the victims. It's as if Light is the ONLY person in the world that would kill these 400 people if he had the chance.

Completely ridiculous. I have no idea how L - who was in Japan - simply tried inserting information specifically on Seattle's police data. Assuming that worked, I have no idea how he put FBI agents to watch over every single cop AND their family. And then, after these FBI agents died, he simply knew Light did it even though there was no indication.

In the anime it makes a lot of sense, since L already knew that Kira was a young, stubborn student from the very beginning. Then he quickly knew in what city Light was.

Light provoked L by showing that he had information from the police. So L put cameras on the HOUSES of each officer. When he had less than 100 suspects he dispatched the FBI agents to find them. And Light killed all of these at once, which was a smart play. It makes much more sense.

>>86951820
>the crime rate went down by 90% across most of the civilized world thanks to him.
Yeah, and the murder rate went up 10,000%. Really makes you wonder.

He sent data to everywhere.

right up until he considers pirating anime as deserving to die then suddenly you dont support him anymore
