Just got a press release from VIZ– apparently the first live-action Death Note flick is going to hit theaters nation-wide…but only for two days. Those two days are May 20 and 21st, and they’ll run at 7:30pm whatever the local time is.

So the big question is: where? How many theaters? It’ll be over 300, and advance tickets go on sale April 18th through 20th on ShonenJump.com. Regular tickets will be available starting April 21st on event partner Fathom’s website, which is also supposed to have a complete list of locations, but I don’t see one yet. Still, with 300 theaters, odds are good there’ll be one at least within an hour or two of most fans.

I dunno about you, but I’M excited.

    Roanoke. Roanoke. please have it in Roanoke…

    PS, why a Tuesday and Wednesday? Wouldn’t a Friday and Saturday make more sense, or did they do it then because those are typically the slowest movie nights and so theaters are more likely to do a special showing then?

    Also, are you sure it’s both? Reading the Viz press release made it sound like they were only airing the first to me…

    Yeah, I don’t see any mention of “the Last Name” in the press release. I think it’s only for the first film. ^^;;

    2 days? Isn’t Death Note popular?
