The original Battle Royale DVD is commonly available for under £10, but it's a real stinker - the transfer is shocking!! But a 2-disc special edition with a re-mastered print, dts, and a few minor extra scenes and enhanced special effects (and a load of extras, if you're interested), was later released. This is the only version worth going for, but is normally fairly pricey. The other day though, I saw it in the sale at my local HMV for £10. And I've just looked on the website and it's in stock for £7.99 www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=149849At that price I wouldn't hesitate.  |

Ive got Battle Royale 1 and 2 on dvd , 1st one is a lot better tho. As I noted in another thread, #1 is a great film, IMO, while #2 is an okay film in its own right, but poor as a sequel. The initial structure from the first BR film is basically thrown out of the window; the only 'sequel' effect is some of the characters were carried over and some events were mentioned. It's not like, say, Ringu and Ringu 2, where the sequel is done properly (and is debatably better, depending on what you were looking for from it). To use a 'western' example of a good sequel; think Terminator and T2. |

The key difference being that LotF didn't involve them all being handed guns/axes ("  This one's super-lucky!")/crossbows/dustbin lids and told to kill or be killed |
