Author Topic: Death Note Movie in Theaters (Read 16587 times)

Zetsu4200 · « **on:** April 13, 2008, 08:19:31 pm »

I saw an ad for this and thought I'd let everyone know that the first Death Note movie is going to be in theaters May 20th and 21st. I know most people have already seen the movie(s), heck I own both, but I just thought It'd be cool to see it on the big screen. For more info go here:http://www.fandango.com/deathnote_115629/movieoverview

Awesome! Like you said, although I own the movies I'd still love to go see it in theaters! It would be great to have a DN cosplay/movie meet up for it!

superjaz · « **Reply #2 on:** April 13, 2008, 08:55:19 pm »

we just finished this the other week,we have the movies downloaded, but now its going to be tempting to wait and see it on the big screen

Ohh~~ I never saw the first Death Note movie so...maybe...? I think I can bust out my semi-Misa cosplay for it :3 POOOOOP the nearest movie theater is in Vancouver D:

Zetsu4200 · « **Reply #4 on:** April 13, 2008, 09:26:11 pm »

Tis too bad, but Vancouvers good for me, theater's maybe 20 miles from me. on another note, Bleach: Memories of Nobody is also going to be in theaters, in June. I couldn't find the exact release date, the ad I've got only mentions the month. Know my luck, it's going to be on the day I go on "vacation". Here is more info on it:http://anime.ign.com/articles/862/862023p1.html

it is also going to play at Century 16 Cedar Hills Crossing

For me personally, Wilsonville (maybe a Fry's trip before/after movie?? There's also a Coldstone too!) or Hill Top 9 would work. Though Wilsonville would be great.. ^^;

I saw the trailer/ad for Death Note when I went to see Iron Man. The whole theater (which was basically my group of nerd friends) erupted when it came on. It was a great reminder because I had actually forgotten about this. I'm stoked, though. Can't wait to see it on the big screen!

Is it ok to watch the death note movies having never seen the anime?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #33 on:** May 06, 2008, 10:26:27 am »

I'm sure it's fine. You get the overall story either way. It is kind of like asking if it is okay to watch the anime without reading the manga. It doesn't matter in the long run. I have read the manga, but not seen the anime, or the movies. So, yeah... it doesn't matter. It's the same story, for the most part.

I agree, I just think I prefer to watch the anime because you get more depth to the story that way. I liked the movies but It felt like they just skimmed the surface of the story in some areas.

I can understand how that would unfortunately happen with a long show being turned into a feature-length movie. The little parts of the movie I have seen I've liked (mainly, the scenes with shinigami). I love how they presented Ryuk and Rem. I think it looks pretty awesome, heh.

Yes, the CGI was very well done. What else can you expect from a japanese production company other than amazing CGI. Oh, the movies end differently than the anime so if you watch the movies you can still watch the anime to see a different ending.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #37 on:** May 06, 2008, 11:07:45 am »

Ah, that's weird. I heard that the anime ends way differently than the manga, so I wonder how the movie will end compared to the two previous manifestations of the story? Hmmm, mystery.

The book, Another Note, during the time frame you specified. L: Save the World, takes place during the second movie, or so I've heard.

Oh yeah, I just came back from seeing the Death-Note movie in Cedar Hills!(and it was awesome, of course!) From what I can understand, there were the same dub voice actors from the anime for it(it was showed in English), and it summarized a lot of the major events that happened in the beginning of the manga. I would say a lot more, but you're going to have to see the movie for yourselves! ^___^

Zetsu4200 · « **Reply #62 on:** May 20, 2008, 11:12:29 pm »

after having seen the movie in japanese, the english version wasn't that good. it felt like the movie was muted and they were playing the anime in the background. The screaming fans were entertaining though

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #63 on:** May 21, 2008, 12:30:58 am »

screaming fangirls are loud but entertaining, we got them tonight when I saw the movie. The dubbing wasn't great but it wasn't terrible, the cg was decent and the story progressed nicely. The vibe was awsome and I got to hand out a bunch of kcon fliers to people. Hahahaaha I now have minions in the Eugene area who will do my bidding and hand out fliers for me to a bunch of different locations. Tis good.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #64 on:** May 21, 2008, 08:26:35 am »

It was dubbed? I like the Japaneses version. I don't really like Light's voice in the dubbed anime. It's too bad I have to miss it. Damn school >_<

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #65 on:** May 21, 2008, 08:30:31 am »

Yeah it was dubbed. I'm not sure if it is the same voice actors as in the anime, but it was well done for the feel of the characters, though lipsyncing is hard no matter what you do especially with live things. I would have much preferred subtitles. It was worth a watch none the less. Captions though, the movie was missing captions in english for all the japanese text that you end up seeing which I am assuming says important things like when he looks at the list of criminals and I am sure it says rapist or murderer or something but you wouldn't know unless you were fluent in japanese.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #66 on:** May 21, 2008, 08:50:55 am »

I'm still looking forward to it, dubbing doesn't tend to bother me much at all, so I think I'll be fine with it. Of course I prefer subbing, but beggars can't be choosers when a theater screening is involved, heh.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #67 on:** May 21, 2008, 10:49:04 am »

Yeah I guess thats true but being in Corvallis it is hard to justify a trip to Beaverton just for a movie, and one I have already seen.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #68 on:** May 21, 2008, 11:37:22 am »

I got used to the dub but not the guys behind me. We got stuck behind some stupid jock and his friend who is a Bleach fan. He kept loudly complaining about L sucking his thumb and "WTF is so funny?" when certain characters popped up. I hate jocks again! Yay!

Higuma · « **Reply #69 on:** May 21, 2008, 11:41:20 am »

not a huge fan of viz media when it comes to their dubs so I will probably not go see this one.

babysugarbear28 · « **Reply #70 on:** May 21, 2008, 02:22:41 pm »

Lol so yeah it was worth a watch and I am in the Eugene area, Cinemark 17 in the Gateway Mall got the movie on Tuesday and has it tonight as well ^_^

It might be faster and less costly to go to Springfield/Eugene than the portland area anyway.

That sucks about the jock though...

So, I set out with two of my buddies last night to go see this at Cascade 16 in Vancouver. We had bought our tickets last Thursday while getting tickets for Prince Caspian's midnight release. However, when we got into the theater (a few minutes late) , we quickly discovered a problem....there was no seats whatsoever. I'm not kidding...there was about six or so people sitting on the floor! We had a quick caucus about whether or not we should stay and join the people on the floor before deciding to leave, ask for a refund, and just go get sushi. LOL.

I mean I knew it was going to be popular, but the fact that there were so many people that people were sitting on the floor just threw me. LOL.

Oh man! I can't believe I forgot about this...I remembered last night, but it was too late to get to the theater in time. I guess it was a good thing that I procrastinated on buying a ticket.

I went to the theater and they were like "It's only playing in washington." Even though they had the poster up. I wanted to stab the guy in the face. >.< So we saw Baby Mama instead. XD

Yeah, last night sucked in the sense that Kahlan and I went out to Cedar Hills Crossing to watch Death Note, but we didn't get tickets in advance. I guess we underestimated how big a demand there was for the movie, because we got there and guess what? All full. T_T So we went home and hunted for video editing software instead, lol. What a night, right? Did anyone go to the Cedar Hills who can say how it went?

Yeah, you gotta consider most movies might stay out for up to a month; about 30 days for people to choose when to see it. This one was only out for 2 days. Even I didn't think the fan base was going to be as big as it was.
Ever since I went to see Fellowship of the Ring and found out people were standing down both aisles, I've started getting to the theater at least 15 minutes early.

I was planning on going to the Cedar Hills showing but couldn't go at the last minute.. TT__TT But from what EveofAbyss said, maybe that wasn't such a bad thing. oO Wow.
