Viz Pictures will be screening this film in the US in October (more info).

This sequel to the great cat and mouse thriller Death Note, was too uneven for my tastes (too much story and too little time to cram it all in nice and near seamlessly meshed), though I definitely dig that last act of the film where a great battle of wits ensue.

Viz Pictures will be screening the sequel to this film in the US in October (more info). Images and wallpaper for actor Ken’ichi Matsuyama remain one of the hottest items here at Cinema is Dope. I will be taking out some time today to post the remaining images I have from both Death Note films and L: Change the World. Be sure to also check out the images I posted earlier today of him in Detroit Metal City (view here).

It’s literally a chess match between Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara) L (Ken’ichi Matsuyama) in this conclusion to the Death Note series.

Now raise your hand if you dressed like either Light or L for Halloween this year. Raise both hands if you dress like either everyday. Raise both hands and one leg if you do all the above and dress like either to bed. Raise both hands and both legs if you dress like either with all the above and when you shower.

Well chances are you have already ready my interview with director Shusuke Kaneko on this film at Twitch (read here), but what you may not know already is I have a huge movie crush on Yu Kashii. I first became aware of her in Linda Linda Linda where she instantly leaped from the screen and most recently saw her in the really bizarre film The Pavillion Salamandre (Pavillion sanshouo). One of my Japanese colleagues who has met her before (who will go nameless) told me, “Blake if you have a thing for gorgeous women with big noses, Yu Kashii is your girl.”
