live-action Death Note

one big resentment about the movie... and i attribute it to the movie makers wanting to appeal more to the general population...

they didn't tell us the real reason why Light wanted to use the death note... AKA complete world domination... to become "god" of a new world order...

they made it seems as if he was doing it for the good of everyone by killing off those that weren't brought to justice or served enough punishment for their crimes...

but i think many would agree that part of the reason Death Note appeals to people is that instead of the "hero" character that most stories have, this one has an "anti-hero"; one that instead of wanting to do good everywhere he goes, is more interested in himself and him the "all-mighty"...

i should say i'm glad i haven't started reading the manga yet... or i might be hating the way the movie differs from the manga... i've only watched 3 episodes of the anime and already i have much to say about how different the movie is from what i've watched...

*shrugs*

at least the movie got me more interested in the anime... especially with the anime being in such a slow pace... i haven't even see the whole face of L yet!

in any case...

a little trivia for those that have watched both the live-action movie and anime of Death Note...

did u realized that the same seiyuu voiced for the shinigami Ryuk in both??

heehee...

thot that was a nice touch...
