Death Note Drama

I woke up this morning to see that a bunch of knuckleheads drove a director to deleting his twitter account by harassing him and sending him death threats because they were unhappy about his movie. I haven't watched it, personally, but I did watch a jvlogger on YouTube do a pros and cons video about the movie. Whether you like it or not, it's never a good idea to send death threats to people because you're unhappy with what they did. I'd like to see you do better! The Everyman can't just sit there and armchair critique a movie without knowing what goes into it! Yes, they cast a white person as Light. Who knows, maybe he really was the best applicant. I doubt they'd be easily able to bring a Japanese person over here with perfect English to do that job. To me, whitewashing isn't whitewashing until we know for a fact that they moved over perfectly good applicants to pick a white person to do the job. Yes, storyline bits were changed, possibly a lot, but again, that's going to happen every single time someone takes a story from one medium to another. I read the manga. It's very wordy and very mental (by which I mean, lots of thinking). All those thoughts can't be easily translated into a movie no matter how hard you try. Be upset with the movie if you like, but seriously people, it's not worth killing over. You're making all the otakus in the world look bad when you pull crap like that. We don't need that kind of reputation.
