"So who's looking forward to Battle Royale 2?"

It premiers out in Japan tomorrow and hopefully we will get a cinematic release in this country like the last one. I've just been watching the trailers on the website and it WILL rule.

Views wanted and remember..

THIS TIME, IT'S WAR!

Of course it's going to be an 18. Why, are you under age? Classic!

And, yes, the original director died. His son is doing this one.

I have the original on Special Edition DVD - very cool...with loads of extras.

Isn't the director of the original dead?

But, yes I will go and see it.

It's gonna be a substandard film, owing to the producers thinking the success of the first was all the gory action scenes and not the dynamic between childhood friends.

For info on BR2, go to http://br2.battleroyalefilm.com/. Excellent site with some cool forums.

I'll be the first in line to see it, as I believe it's getting a theatrical release over here to my great surprise.

*Hopes it's not an 18 at the cinema*

And seconding that, I'll be the first in line to download it, subbed or not. I know all of the characters and some guy who saw a screening of the film at Toei studios sort of told us the ending. The ending seems a bit odd. Catch me on MSN if you want spoilers. I cannot wait for this film.

Riki Takeuchi saying "Beeeeee Arrrrrrr Tooooooo!" :D

I think that I will indeed be going to see it. Just so long as I enjoy it I'll be happy.

To be honest, it doesn't look as good as the original. More of an action film than "Oh no, I have to kill my BEST FRIEND!"

And most of my mates either aren't into that sort of thing, or didn't like the first one. Might just wait for DVD.
