MOVIE DISCUSSION:
Shirleon joins Melvin to discuss Death Note (2006)... but not the one you're thinking of! No, they discuss the live-action adaptation that released earlier the same year as its anime counterpart. The two discuss how this adaptation functions on its own as well as compare it to the anime adaptation, and explore the ins-and-outs of Death Note as a whole.
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 22-minutes discussing which of the two movies, The Fantastic Four: First Steps or Superman, will receive the better box-office numbers, if the industry will even be impressed with their sales, and if general audiences have moved on from superheroes. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- There's some deviation between this live-action adaptation and the anime, but nothing quite as egregious as the Western Netflix adaptation.
- Briefly talking Ryuk and the CGI.
- There's an "it" factor that's missing with this adaptation, and Melvin takes some time to explore what that may be.
- Death Note has a lot of monologues, but they seem to be missing from this live-action adaptation. The two discuss why that might matter.
- Light Yagami is very self-controlled but profoundly emotional, and neither this live-action adaptation nor the Western Netflix adaptation have figured out how to handle that pairing.
- Talking about L's live-action portrayal.
- Talking about the ending.
