at long last i finaly was able to get a copy of Battle Royale!
it is very hard to see this movie since it may as well be banned in America. “land of the free”
it took me 4 years to track this movie down and it was well worth it.
Indeed, 'tis a truly genius film! It was actually aired on UK telly a few weeks ago, but was about half the length because of extreme cutting-ness… 
The bit at the end with the teacher and the phone is just plain weird…

the highlight for me was takeshi kitano knifing the girl in the face.
what is so great about that movie is that its freakin sweet even if you dont get all the symbolism and meaning.
At the beginning? With words to the effect of “No talking!”? That is good, and also the “Oh, I forgot I’m not allowed to kill…”!
Quite disturbing in places, but a fantastic watch!
Has anyone seen BR2? I have heard it’s terrible… or at least terrible after the late director’s son takes over!
i will as soon as my friend can get the english sub-titles to work.
Hah, my friends band made a song about the movie. It is pretty bad quality, and was recorded poorly, but its still a pretty funny/cool song.
Download the “studio” version of Battle Royale from here:
siafirede,your friend doesnt have that song online. could you tell him to put it into the rotation so we can hear it?
It works for me, go to the site, right click the link and “save target as”.
If this still doesnt work for you, message me on AIM: Jamon817 and I will send it to you.
