Who loved this Japanese awesome bloody violent movie?
I love BR..so much!Too bad I have only seen it once when I was in Japan, and I really really want to see it again and the search for it is killing me.=[I'll try eBay next!
BTW Tarantino wants to remake BR...I hope his mind changes because BR deserved to be left alone.^_^

but if anybody could remake it and do it right, it'd be QT

also, when films are remade, the originals tend to see an increase of rentals, purchases and overall interest... if someone as hot (director-wise jeez!) as Tarintino did Battle Royal, more people would probably get to see the great original.

yes, that is one positive for the remake if it does happen.^_^But the thing is, QT's blood in movies are ridiculous,IMO.
In Kill Bill the blood was crazy. Sad cause all these dumbass kids have no clue why he did it.

I know exactly why he made the blood shoot up, just not going to say it. Find out yourself.

I know. But then all the dumbass kids complain about the blood being so unrealistic.
Yeah they just like the movie for the sword fighting. I've seen all the movies QT put in Kill Bill.

I'd rather just see the original movie brought over here, preferably to DVD and VHS to avoid any more controversy.

On topic: BR is sweet. I saw it a while back and was blown away.


Off topic: There's no real reason for KB's blood, is there? You just wanted to sound important.

Battle Royale and Battle Royale 2 kick ass.
I have both movies downloaded and burned on DVD, thanks to ShingoEX (for the first movie). :')


Also, please don't get Tarrantino in this discussion.
Most of his movies (including Kill Bill 1 and 2) suck.
Battle Royale is an amazing film!

Action from start to finish, gore, and best of all - Japanese women grin

Battle Royale 1 and 2 is available on DVD here in the UK so i'm sure you would have no problem geeting it, I have both and love them, I would get the special edition version for BR1 as it has a better picture and a DTS soundtrack it also has extra scenes that wasn't in the original release and a sceond disc with making of features etc and a tv spot by Tarrantino as he's a big fan of Kinji Fukasaku hence the references to his films etc in Kill Bill.

BR 2 is just a original release with no second disc, but does have a DTS soundtrack, the second film is awsome more violent than the first, well worth getting if you loved the first like i did smile

here's a link where you can get them.

The main problem is quality and figuring out which version is the best version. I'd personally just like to see Tarantino work his "magic" and get us an official BR set (with both 1 and 2) with all the extras, including the BR Director's Cut released in the US.
UGH, hey The_Kosai tell this idiots why he put all that blood in Kill Bill.

Battle Royale 1 is pretty good, but the 2nd one is crap. The only good thing about it is Riki Takeuchi. I didn't know Tarantino was talking about remaking it, i'd be interested in that.

What's with the Kill Bill hating? I'm a huge japanese movie collector, and I think Kill Bill was great. It was just like a japanese martial arts flick, only with a good budget! Also, what is this mysterious reason why Tarantino did the blood like that? The only reason I say is because I know Tarantino said he was a big Takashi Miike fan, and he influenced the movie. Anyone whos seen some Miike films knows how that guy handles gore...
