Kscriv Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I'll keep this short, Viz is going to run the live-action Death Note II: The Last Name in theaters just like they did with the first one. I hated the first one as many may recall from my review, but often times the bad reviews are the best ones. So I leave this to my audience (at least those that are coming to the forums), do I watch and review this movie for Animezing Podcast, or do I keep my sanity? Your choice.

Missy Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 If I have to suffer through Saw every year, then yes, you have to suffer through every live-action Death Note! :devil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Robinson Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Come on now, you're just asking for this. My girlfriend actually looked at the cover for the first Death Note movie yesterday, and showed a bit of interest. I just, sort of shrugged my shoulders and said "I heard it's pretty terrible". I honestly don't know a whole lot about it outside of the concept though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kscriv Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Let me state for the record, the Death Note manga and the Death Note anime are fucking spectacular and classics of the genre. The live-action movie is terrible though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Robinson Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I’ve heard as much (well, for the manga. For the anime I’ve heard reports ranging from “amazing” to “terrible”). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slothian Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Why would you ask something like this, Kellen? As well you know, the entire Earth-2.net staff are glutton for punishment & unendurable agony - partially because they make for the best reviews! So yes, suffer. In the nicest possible way, naturally! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinmaru Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I actually liked the second movie much more than the first. The first is dull as all hell because it's a complete retread of the manga/anime, except in live action, so it's not as stylish or interesting. I did like the last half hour or so more, if only because it's something different, even if it is silly and contrived (then again, as good as it is, Death Note is often silly and contrived, haha).
