Some really great stuff on these 2 discs (I've seen an hour of the extras so far) and I'm proud to say that I own one of something like 10,000 limited edition film frames. And I got a decent one of Kawada :D
Buy it. Now.
They've either got to stay really close to the original, or go in a completely different direction. There can be no in-betweens. NONE.

His son, actually :P
And there's a trailer out for it. There's a link at http://www.battleroyalefilm.net/sequel/index.html
Suprising very good and very funny as well
Would like to see a sequel although i can't help but feel it will ruin the atmosphere of the first.

Don't say that. I'll have nightmares for months.
I had plans of doing my own western version of it, until I found out Hollywood was already doing it, probably with Josh Hartnett.
Saw it near its Japanese release and have seen it many times since. I am a great fan of Fukasaku and was upset when he passed away.
Hopefully his brother can do Battle Royale 2 justice.

So what is the storyline? And has anyone heard of Suicide Circle? That film looks pretty disturbing...
