Well it is very popular and it started one of the biggest discussions on the internet.

For the people who don't know anything about Death Note:


Death Note is a anime/manga about a boy who find a book called Death Note that haves special powers.

If you write a name of a person into it the person will die in 24 hours of a heart attack. The guy in the manga/anime use it to kill criminals and thats why people discussed about it.... Is he doing a good thing or a bad thing?

Saw something on this a while back. Doesn't seem to be the biggest budget movie, but that doesn't doom it to sucking. Strange that they went with a live action movie though. How common is it for an anime to get a live action movie? I can't think of any examples off the top of my head.

Also I'm really surprised that you saw a teaser for this before Ironman. When I saw the teaser for this a while back I kind of figured it was a low budget Japan only thing and I wouldn't hear about it over in the states.

umm deathnote movie 1-2 been out for a while now suppose to be a 3 movie series .

 Hmm there are a quite some, some fail very hard like Dragonball one (I guess it was made in Thailand or the Phillipinnes) and okay ones like  ...I forgot the name it is about cars ..Oh man it sucks if you forgot the name =/;

Oh that one that ends in D....Inertia D or something like that?

 Initial D!!!!  I thought it was pretty good ^^''.

It's Initial D? Damn it I thought that at first, but I figured Inertia had more to do with Cars. Damn my logic.

 Um...Speed Racer!?!

 Seriously man, how can you forget about that!

The Dragonball movie is out already?

Also i heard they are doing a Akira movie.

What you missed the Dragonball movie? How could ya!!
