Battle Royale is pretty awesome - which is strange for me to say, since I sit right in the target audience for The Hunger Games and I saw that one first, but Battle Royale came out on top. <br /><br />Must check out the other two - and I'm loving this dystopian feature! Really great genre which I enjoy a lot.Stevee Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284769251750574447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4048087291064672035.post-78044045342230554912012-09-06T05:35:15.634+08:002012-09-06T05:35:15.634+08:00Haha.

It has been a while since I have watched <i>Soylent Green</i> but those last few scenes are still fresh in my memory.<br /><br />Stevvee has an opinion and that's great. It's just wrong in this case. I saw <i>Battle Royale</i> when I was in high school and I loved it. The final moments with Chiaki Kuriyama were magic. I remember how giddy I felt when I stepped out of the cinema.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4048087291064672035.post-53568334669285484082012-09-04T22:59:12.461+08:002012-09-04T22:59:12.461+08:00Incredibly i must have been one of the few people ...Incredibly i must have been one of the few people not to have heard about it when i saw it for the first time.
