Yep! And they've actually updated the site now, so it's half decent ;D You get to click around Light's room, and look at the trailer/poster/credits etc. www.death-note-movie.comAnyway, it's coming out in two parts - the first in June, and the second in October. The trailer's not giving much away at the moment - it's just Light looking vaguely creepy with the Death Note and an apple.  As is the poster.  Light actually looks rather promising in the poster - but in the trailer... less sure. =p Apparently the first movie focuses on the Yotsuba company storyline, and the second on the L/Light competitive dynamic, which I think is a little odd. (Given the Yotsuba thing is quite far in, so... starting with it? How are they going to introduce L, Misa, Rem etc so quickly?) and you'd think the L/Light thing would be a better starting point... but I guess we shall see. ;D ...really, I'm just wondering how they're going to do Ryuk.  |

Ryuk will be largely CGI

Yeah, I guess so... I just hope he comes out looking decent. :3 And! someone on the DN lj comm noticed this... during the trailer, you briefly get a flash of someone who may well be L.   When you look at it, it does seem that it's not Light - hard to tell in the darkness and with the closeup, but the eyes etc seem different. And plus, he seems to have eye-bags that even the shadows aren't responsible for. XP ...rather creepy though. |

Yeah, the trailer kind of annoyed me. A bit too Ring-y.
I do hope L comes out right, though, because his weirdness is part of the appeal.

That does look pretty bad ass
Im guessing they probably wont show Ryuk for the most part of the film cos of all the floating apples and such
as long as its bad ass i dont care tho

yeah, i hope it's good. xD they'll probably have to show ryuk quite a bit i guess... it'd be a bit strange with light just talking to a disembodied voice all the time. but the CGI'll need to be really good, otherwise both the shinigami will ruin it. >.> but i may be going to japan in june, so hopefully i'll be able to see it out there ;D haha, also, not the movie, but... DN has a random 2 second cameo in FMP xD  *amused@l riding a bike* |

I thought it was him! I watched FMP:TSR again recently and I knew I'd seen that face somewhere before. Cheers for filling in the gap!

yeah, i've since heard the song... and am dubious xD it's not that bad, but it's really... un-deathnote-y. and! these don't seem to be new movie posters (yet - i think these are from some kind of ticket-y thing) but, first glimpses of movie-L and movie-Misa! =D  L looks potentially awesome. Not sure about Misa, but that's only because they've given her black hair. =( |

Post by jess on Apr 15, 2006 14:57:06 GMT
hehe, it's not actually emo at all. =p it's most kind of like a murder mystery/"intellectual game" type thing... which is weird why they've made it into a movie, as a lot of it's thinking. but it's a about a boy who discovers a notebook dropped by a shinigami, and if he writes down a name, as long as he knows what that person looks like, they'll die. sooo, he decides to use it to kill off all the criminals and evil people in the world, and basically becomes a sociopathic mass-murderer, despite thinking he's all righteous and doing the world a favour etc. obviously the police go after him... using the famous detective "L" to track him down. the first half of the series is all about him and L trying to outsmart each other, pretty much. Lots of twists and turns, really good. =) |

Well, if anyone's interested, i can pm you a link to a site where you can basically download the whole thing in scanlations. though obviously the quality of images and translations of the official version is much better ;D (but is only out up to vol 4 as of the moment ) the only thing i'm worried about is that they might make it tooooo serious. judging from the trailer, at least. >.> i mean, is IS, what with being about murder and all.... but it does have it's funny moments. and L's such a cute freak, so they better not make him emo =p  |

sent ^^ well, it's accurate... xD because he is cute (or so i say =p) but he's also such a weirdo... he sits like a monkey, hates wearing shoes and socks, is constantly eating sugar or drinking coffee, and never had friend before the guy he suspects of being a mass-murderer. so... it's apt. ;D |
