V: Netflix is in final negotiations to pick up Death Note [DNOTE] Oleg Max Apr 06, 16:19

This is the first time I've audibly said "No! No no no no no..." to one of Netflix's acquisitions. I wanted more for this project than that. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Apr 06, 16:27

No way this will come close to the original. You can't do that level of killing in Hollywood. It will more likely be islander Apr 06, 16:43

netflix isnt hollywood. Its probably has a better chance of being more faithful at Netflix than at Warner. And Adam is not exactly known for Moviesnob Apr 06, 16:50

If you say so :) but... islander Apr 06, 16:59

fair but Netflix carries a lot of anime and has recently moved into Japan. My guess is they are looking at how well the anime does for them Moviesnob Apr 06, 17:06

If acquired would this mean Netflix exclusive with no theatre release? {nm} ossiemosis Apr 06, 16:30

Typically w/ Netflix, it's means a very, VERY limited theatrical release. Like an IMAX exclusive one-week limited engagement. chosenone2oo5 Apr 06, 16:33

could still get sequels {nm} Moviesnob Apr 06, 16:37

this plays into WB making less movie. Antibody Apr 06, 16:56

this is the 2nd time they've gone down the road with adam and then pulled the rug out from him. Its nothing new RE warner {nm} Moviesnob Apr 06, 17:00

Right, he's not part of the WB stable of filmmakers mentioned by THR. {nm} Antibody Apr 06, 17:03

I hear where you're going with Warner, but honestly, studios making less movies and focusing on tentpoles is not new Moviesnob Apr 06, 17:03
