Death Note Movie in Theaters

[Zetsu4200]

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

[Shadow]

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]

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

[laurifer]

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]

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

and I can cosplay Light! 

[Washougal_Otaku]

I work right next door to one of the theatres that'll be showing it!  I'm planning on going!

[VampireFangs103]

Perhaps this would be a fun meet up? I'd be glad to pull out my L costume ^^ What theaters will this be in though? O.o And what would be a good one for everyone to meet up at? >.>

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.. ^^;

Yay, I am so going then! I haven't seen any of them, not entirely anyway. Yay!

[pieisexactlythree]

So there will be no showings in Portland?  Fail, because I'm not going to drive all the way to the 'burbs.

Sweet I live close to Cedar Hills

[Shadow]

Aw hell, it looks like it's only going to be playing at Cedar Hills. DD: That's a 30 minute drive for me, but maybe I can go. It would still be fun. ^^;

[GaaraoftheFunk]

Ohohoh~~
I might be going.
>w<
Though i've already seen both a billion times.
>.>
<.<

[Hazuza]

Definitely going! =D Cedar Hills is close to me, too...

So, wait, how does this work? Are they showing the same movie both nights, or the first one one night and the second... the... second night. owo;

I think it's the latter, but still.

[GaaraoftheFunk]

Its just the first movie both nights.
I have a flyer for it.Thanks to being a subscriber to Shojo beat.
-has it tacked to the wall-

We must has meet up and go see it (and possibly do boot thrifting too!) ^_^

[Hazuza]

Ah, okays xD
I wish it was the second movie, too... It would be so epic having all the fans screaming in the theater x3

Thrifting~ =0 *wants to tag along*

NEED RIDE
Well, technically no I don't NEED a ride but it'd be very cool if I could get one.
Maybe a ride from someone who has a duffle bag that belongs to me *eyeball's Mustash*

[uraharafreak]

Shadow do ya live in/near Wilsonville? I live in Wilsonville and if I go....which would be most likely unless I am scheduled to work during the meet up... then maybe I can give you a ride. Heck it's a shorter commute than what I do for work everyday

I live close to Wilsonville, but unfortunately I don't think the movie will be playing there. ;-; But that's so nice to offer to give me a ride! =D Thank you!

[uraharafreak]

Yeah this movie is and extremely limited release. I am used to the drive, so I don't really care...well maybe I would care if it was only in Vancouver...but Beaverton is no big deal. So, yeah, just let me know.

[Shadow]

Yeah it's a bummer it's not playing in more theaters. =( But I think I can get a ride and/or drive out there if I can get a friend to go. But thank you for the offer! =3

[uraharafreak]

Yeah no problem.

[TomtheFanboy]

You guys totally made me think that was tonight. I was all set to leave the house when vallie asked me why I was in a hurry. 

[GaaraoftheFunk]

XD nonono.
Its only april. :3
Dont get too excited tharr.xD

[pieisexactlythree]

Meh.  I'll just wait for it to come to the Laurelhurst.

[Etchy]

I am going with my friends that I meet at Kumoricon (my first year) and we are gonna cosplay to it. I think it is playing at the Clackamas mall because I saw a trailer just on sunday so I am pretty sure it is gonna be there. Now I just need to reserve tickets!

Seriously?? That would be awesome if it was! That's so close! *crosses fingers*

[EveofAbyss]

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!

[Daxe]

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

[EveofAbyss]

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]

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.

[Zetsu4200]

The movies have the same basic story, but they do not cover the whole series, so sad

Hmmm, interesting. Has anyone seen (or maybe it isn't out yet) the L spinoff movie? I think that takes place before Death Note, about L and Raye Penber's wife how they worked together. Should be pretty cool.

[nikkiolie]

I really want to see the spin off. I haven't found it yet. But I downloaded the other two movies and I really liked them. I thought they were well casted.

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.

[Higuma]

I think the L spinoff movie is still in production.

[EveofAbyss]

Ooh, okay. I know I had read something about it on ANN, but I didn't remember the specifics.

[garfieldelric]

I'm wondering if any Seattle or Portland theatres will show this.... because I AM SO THERE!

[EveofAbyss]

Do you mean the L spinoff?

[garfieldelric]

Yes, and the regular movie.

[nikkiolie]

At Sakuracon this year they had both the movies on DVD so maybe at Kumoricon they will have the L spinoff. I would buy it instantly.

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, same here. I'll be looking to pick up any of the Death Note films if they have them.

And Garfielelric: there isn't a showing in Seattle, but a Vancouver theater is participating in the Death Note movie nights. http://www.fandango.com/deathnote_115629/movietimes?location=97207&date=5/21/2008

[Shadow]

So who's going to the Cedar Hills showing on Wednesday? oo Any other people cosplaying for it? ^^
