I'm so fucking sick of you autistic arm chair 'critics' shitting all over Death Note and I'm being dead fucking serious. Y'all need to get some taste and class.

Death Note (Netflix) is one of those rare pieces of great cinema to be released in the last 76 years (since Citizen Kane). The cinematography was absolute quality that really helped drive the tone of the film. The OST (composed by the legendary Atticus Ross) evokes emotion from each scene and really only furthered a strong and compelling narrative way that you just don't see much these days.

The set pieces were crafted with nothing but love, care, and incredible attention to detail. You can really tell that Zoe Jirik deeply cared about the world that she was helping to create.

The writing on this film is beyond words. Each scene was pivotal to the overall story and not a single line of dialogue was wasted. Truly a monumental amount of effort went into this script. It's especially brilliant when you compare it to the low effort superhero flicks (BvS, WW, SS etc) that flood the market like too much water in a dam.

Many adaptations these days get it wrong, and fall short of their source. Let's just settle this once and for all, Death Note did not. The character of Light in the original series is a little too unrealistically brilliant. What Wingard gives us is a realistic anti-hero bursting with depth. Not to mention the improvements on L's idionsyncracies (that aren't clear for the casual viewer of the original), which make his explosive emotional behaviour so much more engaging. What's more (than Dafoe's superior Ryuk?) is a palpable love story expertly handled amidst a film already thick with content.

All in all, Adam Wingard should be praised as one of the greatest film makers of our time. The Guest, V/H/S 2, and now this. Rarely does a generation get to witness such brilliance. C'est la vie, Nolan.

I'm so fucking sick of you autistic arm chair 'critics' shitting all over Game of Thrones and I'm being dead fucking serious. Y'all need to get some taste and class.

Game of Thrones (HBO) is one of those rare pieces of great television to be released in the last 15 years (since The Wire). The cinematography is absolute quality that really helps drive the tone of the TV program. The OST (composed by the legendary Ramin Djawadi) evokes emotion from each scene and really only furthers the strong and compelling narrative in a way that you just don't see much these days.

The set pieces are crafted with nothing but love, care, and incredible attention to detail. You can really tell that Deborah Riley deeply cares about the world that she is helping to create.

The writing on this TV show is beyond words. Each scene is pivotal to the overall story and not a single line of dialogue is wasted. Truly a monumental amount of effort goes into each and every script. It's especially brilliant when you compare it to the low effort superhero TV flicks (DD, IF, LC, JJ etc) that have flooded the market like too much water in Houston.

Many adaptations these days get it wrong, and fall short of their source. Let's just settle this once and for all, Game of Thrones did not. The character of Jon Snow in the original books is a little too unrealistically brilliant. What David Benioff gives us is a realistic hero bursting with depth. Not to mention the improvements on Tyrions idionsyncracies (that aren't clear for the casual viewer of the original), which make his explosive emotional behaviour so much more engaging. What's more (than Richard Colin Brake's superior Night King?) is a palpable love story expertly handled amidst a film already thick with content.

All in all, David Benioff should be praised as one of the greatest showrunners of our time. X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Troy, and now this. Rarely does a generation get to witness such brilliance.

Light's plan with the ferris wheel at the end was good. Wish the rest of the movie had the same quality though. Do you think they'll be sequel? I hope so.

Nah, it's bad. Know why? Because a prior adaptation did all the same shit you mention, but better.

Netflix Light can hardly be called an antihero, but more than that, he can't be called deep. He's a bland high school student who gets caught up in others' machinations, having only one moment of anything resembling brilliance. The drama Light is more what you're describing. He's just an honest guy, working and going to school, who can't stomach the idea of killing another person and only keeps the Death Note because Ryuk goads him into it. He gave up his dream of becoming a police officer when his mother died alone because his father was booking a killer, but the Death Note lets him act on his urge to bring justice. It ends up warping him from the guy who wanted to commit suicide after killing to people to a man who gleefully rips the Death Note out of his father's dying grasp. He actually genuinely cares for Misa (and at no point does she ask "What would you do if another guy fucked me?") and builds a genuine friendship with L (who doesn't chase him around with a gun).

Drama good. Netflix bad. Watch drama.

The description of him as "Based" implied all of that.

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

As someone who read the manga and watched both the dubbed and subbed versions of Death Note along with the Japanese live action films... I rather liked this movie, too. Once I heard "Live action Death Note based in America" I knew so much was going to be changed I just went with it and wasn't going to fret over the differences in details. It was an interesting interpretation of the premise and while a few things could have been tightened up like Light's scream scene and how the third act just goes off the fucking rails, it worked overall.

i have 1 big problem with tHIs movie.

ryuk tells light that hiS name is 4 letters, light can now kill hIm in under a week.

there'S only 2500 different combinations of any 4 letters. he could easily brute force it.

Killing ryuk would of ended up beIng a much betteR turn of events than it Actually had.

I watched the movie first and am now watching the anime.

I can see why the movie made the changes they did to Lights character because in the anime he is pretty fuckin evil. I do like the bigger emphasis on his relationship with Ryuk though and that's where I feel the movie lacked the most. I prefer Ryuk as a neutral force of nature rather than a sinister guy.
>>
>>87066512

It's kino.

All those things you described are things you don't like because they aren't the same as your precious comic or cartoon.

>>Light is an unpopular nerd who gets bullied

Is this the only type of protagonist American audiences can identify with? Light is supposed to be an intelligent alpha imposing his vision of utopia on humanity by purging people he deems unfit to live in society, not some fucking beta bitch.
>>
>>87066512
The fact that they ruined the characterization from the anime to push the 'Higher beings tempt you' propaganda is ridiculous.
>>
>>87079491
This movie fucking sucks

You posted a list of why it's so good

>unpopular nerd who gets bullied
But that's wrong. He isn't bullied, he gets into a fight with a bully while protecting someone else. Then he kills him.

Other than the fact that they turned him into a beta the movie was decent. Ending felt very rushed though

The traumatic risks of receptive anal sex and large anal insertions include one or more lacerations (which may persist as a chronic anal fissure or anorectal ulcer), hemorrhoidal disease, rectal prolapse, fecal incontinence, and for lengthy insertions, colorectal perforation. Other issues also may arise: inflammation (such as proctitis, or peritonitis following perforation), bacterial infection (and sepsis/abscess/fistula), anal skin tag (remnant of external hemorrhoidal thrombosis, scar tissue e.g. from a healed tear, or a sentinel tag indicating the presence of a chronic fissure), and anatomic stenosis (narrowing due to formation of constricting scar tissue called a stricture). A single instance of trauma can result in development of multiple complications; cumulative damage is a concern as well.

Approximately a few centimeters past the anal opening is the pectinate/dentate line--the end of the anatomical anal canal, beyond which the lining transitions to the rectum's simple columnar epithelium. Unlike the vagina's durable, multi-layer stratified squamous epithelium, the rectum's lining is very fragile and easily damaged, especially if the layer of mucus normally covering it is removed by an enema. In addition, some enemas and lubricants may cause it to become inflamed or even slough off entirely. Since damage to the rectal lining alone does not normally elicit pain sensations, any rectal problems that develop may remain undetected unless obvious symptoms manifest in the anorectal area and/or elsewhere (such as a fecal bacterial infection leading to an externally-visible fistula).

The anorectal area's physiology also contributes to its fragility. The involuntary internal anal sphincter relaxes with rectal distension, while the external anal sphincter and puborectalis muscles completely relax when a person "bears down." That causes the loosely-attached hemorrhoidal cushions to become engorged with blood, making them more likely to be damaged by pulling force.

Yeah the cinematography was pretty good. I just finished watching Death Note a few minutes ago and overall the movie is alright 7/10. Of course they had to leave the ending ambiguous to set up the sequel.
>>
>>87082059
>Other than the fact that they turned him into a beta

But... they didn't really? Sure he screams at the hideous death monster appearing in front of him by surprise, but other than that he's low-key alpha? Stands up to bullies even when outmatched, fucks the cheerleader, etc.

Comic/anime Light died a virgin in comparison.
>>
Light freaking out at the sight of Ryuk was intentionally supposed to be comedy, like Bruce Campbell screaming like a girl in Evil Dead 2.

>oh wow i found this newspaper clipping in ur room
No you retard, he was keeping the newspaper killing because that was the man who killed his wife, and he tried to arrest him, but he got cleared of the charges in court.
>>
>>87082486
>calling people retards when you have no idea what youre talking about
The ending shithead. His dad comes into the hospital with the newspaper clipping that he found in Light's room and talks about how it was taken out of his safe.
>>
>>87082059
Dad kept the clipping in his safe or his secret stache of papers or something. Light breaks in, the dude dies. Coincidence? Nope, he's Kira.
>>
Friendly reminder to sage and report these kind of threads.
>>
>>87082839
It was pretty anti-climactic though. he goes through this elaborate plan to not get caught and his dad just finds a newspaper clipping and realizes he is kira
>>
>>87082313
Shows how little respect they have for the solemn, earnest tone of the original
>>
>>87082989

there was comedy in the anime, just never surrounding light, L, ryuuk, the death note, etc

just misa and the young cop guy whose name I forget
>>
>>87082989

To be fair, Netflix should've known what they were in for when they hired Adam Wingard. It also doesn't help that three different people wrote the fucking thing.
>>
>>87083036
Sure there was, but it didn't feel forced or out of place like Light's exaggerated little girl screams that destroy the entire macabre mood of the story.
>>
>>87083197
Reminder that two of these writers wrote Immortals and the other one wrote Fant4stic.
>>
>>87082922
Yeah, but his dad isn't going to do anything about it or turn him in. Because he knows he used his power to kill the murderer of his wife.
>>
>>87083197
He's being sarcastic. The original is pure schlock and deserves absolutely no respect.
>>
>>87083197
It's just a shame the license went to them in the first place, it's obvious they have no reverence for the source material. Can't believe they blew $50 million on this forgettable shit.

b8

the pacing was absolutely amateur, and they took a steaming dump on all the character qualities that made the story compelling
>>
>>87083384
Amerisharts can't handle morally complex characters, everything needs to be dumbed down and turned into hyperbolic caricatures for them.
>>
>>87083384
>Why was Ryuk portrayed as more manipulative than the original?
Probably because Netflix Light himself is not particularly villainous.

books are "ancient" so it makes sense for it to be a book that's the ancient evil thing

>yfw Light uses the note as a means of obtaining Mia, rather than using Mia as a means of becoming Kira
fuck whoever wrote this needs to retire
>>
>>87083327
I doubt he'll let Light keep killing criminals though. The notebook is right there, he'll take it and destroy it.
Or die trying, because L is a cunt and will write down Light's dad's name.
>>
There won't be a sequel because this shit was universally panned and not even Salon-tier SJW rag outlets would validate it. Not even the most egregious of diversity casting by turning the world's most esteemed detective savant into a nig could save it.
>>
>>87083836
Making one white character black doesn't make up for all the other white people in the movie.

it was the keikaku

Death Note doesn't work on Shinigami, anyway. Unless Netflix fucks this up, too.

How I would fix it

>give light a full english name not just the surname
>make the mia character have a more tragic backstory
>she finds out light has the book after he becomes kira not straight away
It was fucking dumb how quick he trusted her with it wtf
>people give him the name kira not himself
>mia is the main villain of the film, the police are after light and she does more and more evil things with the note until light is forced to kill her and some cops maybe
>save L for a sequel and open it with him investigating kira

It wasn't written on a page. It was written in the margins of the instructions.
>>
So is there any deleted scenes to this movie? Cause I want to know about the other people Ryuk gave the book to? Like is he not doing this out of boredom or does he need people to be able to kill?
>>
>>87083036
>just misa and the young cop guy whose name I forget
Matsuda, you idiot.

I wonder if he ever did get the gold at the Beijing Olympics.

>>87085136
What was with this scene? Were they implying some sexual tension here?
>>
>>87066512

Nah, it's shit.
>>
>>87089431
It's an allusion to Jesus washing the feet of Judas even though he knew he was about to betray him

but yeah there's deliberate homolust subtext between Light and L, esp in the anime

>>
>>87092040
I'm okay with it being "whitewashed", there was already a Japanese live action recreation of it. There was no need for another live action recreation and they wanted an American audience. They just changed the plot and made everything else worse than the original material.
