"Dead Like Me" Movie - Anyone see it?

[Crono]

Anyone see it? I don't think it's officially released yet, but I'm sure someone here has seen it already. I'll probably watch it; I hope it's true enough to the series (doesn't seem like it from IMDB reviews). Doesn't have the full original cast (Rube and Daisy replaced)

Rube is not in it

OK, that's weird, it looks like Sarah Wynter (who played Kate Warner on 24 in Day/Season 3) plays Daisy Adair, who was played by Laura Harris (Marie Warner on 24)in the TV series.

His character is gone, replaced by some guy named Cameron. The second I saw him, I was like "that's gotta be Desmond from Lost" (Henry Ian Cusick), and it turns out it is (with a different accent).

EDIT: Ok, I'm watching the movie right now. Reggie grew up :shocked:

I haven't got around to watching it yet. Although that's probably because I haven't finished season 2 of Dead Like Me yet.

Interesting, I watched the series but did not know about this. It's a shame that they couldn't get all of the original cast back. Added to Netflix queue.

Checking Ellen Muth's (George) Myspace page, it's suppose to come out February 20, 2009. Obviously, it's probably already available on other channels.

Can't wait, but I will definately miss Mandy and Laura Harris. I liked Sarah Wynter on 24, but she looks too 'old' and mature compared to Laura. Reggie definately grew up though from the clips that I've seen.

Just finished watching it. It was good. It was different without Rube and, to a lesser extent, Daisy, but it still felt like DLM. It was more like watching two episodes of the show than a movie, which I guess is a good thing. There is some finality to the ending, so I don't think they'll be making any more movies - but I could be wrong.
I'd give it a 7 or 8 (7.5?) out of 10.

Without Rube and Daisy it sucked. The storyline had the same snarky comments and same approach but without the same characters it just didn't feel right.
