i have seen all 3 and well truthfully i think if the hollywood remake is really gonna go through with it then then shuold make it based on the manga not the movie for half the story in the movie is cut and not even mentioned. than and all of the data (like the Deathnote Another Note should be included aswell but thats just me)
but all in all the movie gets a good rating on my book it gets a 7 out of ten and thats just with the fact that i like Death Note and would stick up for it any day^^ and its also a good story line but what ever happends aslong as we dont have another grudge or the ring related movies w/ its super bad story line its all good w/ what they do ^^ |

The 2 Death Note movies were pretty good. Actually I liked the way the ending was done there, better than the manga and anime.
About Light...it's all been said in the previous posts. But he did the job. L was cool. But...L didn't deserve his own movie. That one was just godawful. At points it almost looked serious and intelligent, and yeah, I chuckled when L straightened his back. But then there's those ebola gore scenes and the villains are just...damn, I really want to unsee that crap. But I'll forget it soon enough, hopefully. |

Light in the Japanese LA (played by Tatsuya) lacked sharpness and depth of his character.
About the American remake: I don't care as long as they cast KENICHI MATSUYAMA as L. That's all I wish for

Whoa, people, look at what I found!
http://liveactionanime.org/2009/10/0...script-leaked/ Their saying that the script for the american remake has been leaked! I wouldn't download it (might be illegal =_=) but if it's the real deal... *shudder* They say they've removed Ryuk, too... I HATE AMERICA FOR THIIIIS. Then again, that script COULD just be a phony. You never know. |

Honestly, if that script is real, I'd watch it. Yeah, they got rid of Ryuk, explained Kira and Shinigami in completely nonsensical and vaguely offensive-to-Japanese ways, and removed the moral ambiguity aspects by blaming it all on the Death Note itself, but they managed to squeeze in all the early memorable scenes from the original, like the public broadcast, the epic chip eating, etc. Not too bad, for Hollywood.
Edit: Also, it claims to be an early draft, so there's room for it to improve. Or get worse, I guess. Edit2: Oh yeah, they also made Light (Luke) absurdly more sympathetic as part of their "no moral ambiguity" theme. As in, sympathetic at all. |

Maybe I should give it a try anyway. By the way, the first two movies were ok, Misa couldn't be better portrayed, but the story felt rushed. You can feel the need for this tale to be told over various episodes, like it was the case with the anime. (in which there also was a lot of cutting, compared to the manga) |
