Poll of the Day > Watched Battle Royale last night. I liked it. *spoilers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

I grew a lot of interest in the popular multiplayer mode battle royale and decided to watch this movie because it inspired the game mode afaik.

Overall I liked the movie and it made me want to play a battle royale game. Unfortunately my PC doesn't work so I'll have to wait a while.

I've heard Hunger Games is similar? Although I'm not interested in that series at all.

Edit: Forgot to say that I wanted the bad ass girl to win. She kicked a lot of ass. Forgot her name. The guy with the SMG had unlimited ammo. WTF?

It's a pretty cool movie. Hunger Games really isn't very similar outside of the basic premise.

Good, now read the manga.

read the manga or the novel. it's a billion times better. I read the novel first. and then saw the movie, so i hated the movie. cause it is so different from the book. the manga is pretty good too, it is closer to the novel than to the movie.

also, I can't prove it, but Battle Royale is based on a stephen king story called The Long Walk. that predates Battle Royale by like 20 or 30 years. I remember when I was reading Battle Royale, it reminded me of The Long Walk which I had read previously
