How 'bout "Saw it and it wasn't that great." Guess "Horrible" will have to suffice.

BATTLE ROYALE is hella good book/movie, but the manga version was very bad...

the pictures were bad and story was pretty screwed up

Yup, I saw it at Fanime a while ago but I only saw a bit due to my Fushigi Yuugi hungry friend dragging me to the dealers room most of the time. I hope they show it this year, I wanna see all of it. ^.~

Mortaro: sure..but is it really region 2 or region all? My DVD player that's in the living room is Region 1. and I don't know if my comp's windvd player is already locked from playing too many region 1 dvd's. can you make a copy to VHS better?

I knida wish i got the director's edit, did anyone see that one? It had loads of new scenes that they should have left, IMO. They explained a lot of things.

"Yes! Yes! Work the groin!"



It was only the greatest movie ever.. BR Xtreme Drinking games are dangerous.. Half-way through the movie my friend was wrapping himself in a plastic tarp..



Is sad though.. In case no one else knew:



Veteran Japanese film maker Kinji Fukasaku passed away on Sunday, January 12th at 1am. He was 72 years old. Fukasaku's directorial career spanned 50 years, although he may be best known to Western movie fans as the director of Japanese cult hit Battle Royale. After announcing that he was suffering from bone cancer, Fukasaku decided to ignore his health and begin production of Battle Royale 2. Fuksasku passed on production of Battle Royale 2 to his son two weeks ago.
