99 times out of 100 every time a company tries to make an anime into a live action film, it is absolute garbage. Examples: Dragon Ball Z, Attack on Titan, the first live action Death Note. If you want to count The Last Airbender too, that was so bad I cried in the theatre. 100 times out of 100, if an AMERICAN company tries to make an anime live action, it is a heaping pile of garbage. Please do not ruin the sanctity of Death Note with below average actors doing awful cheesy acting not doing the correct motions. E.G. biting the thumb.
