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.
