[spoiler]Battle Royale is finally on Netflix so I'm quite happeh faec right now.[/spoiler]
Now, if you already know the premise of Battle Royale or have watched the film - Skip the next paragraph while I explain it to those who live under rocks.
For those of you who live under rocks, Battle Royale is a Japanese film about school kids being dumped on an Island to kill each other off as a part of the 'Millennial Education Reform Act' to deal with a riotous youth who were causing all kinds of hell in Japan. So the solution is - Corporal Punishment in the extreme. A class is randomly selected to partake each year and they have to be the last one alive at the end - or they all die. Bomb Collars are used to make sure people play by the rules. If you try to escape/fight the guards - Boom.
**Those who live on top of rocks may not start reading again**
So, I know a fair few of the people on here have already left school (Some quite a while ago) but for the sake of the game - Either your current high school class or the last one you were in, is whisked off to the tropical island, given a rucksack with basic supplies and a random weapon and you are told to run off and fight to survive.
For the purpose of the game, you can choose your weapon but it cannot be firearms/explosives (Unless you want a brace of frag grenades - only exception)
Do you try to take as many with you as you can, knowing that death is all but inevitable? Do you resign yourself to fate and abstain from violence? Do you run and try to survive by avoiding fights?
For the plebs and peasants, this is the original hunger games. The horrific and realistic version of rounding up a bunch of children to kill each other off, not some disney twilight -blam!-ry.
So, Good luck!

Seen it decent movie don't get why there is such a following. As for you question I will take a nice long knife And I take as many if not all of them with me only 3 people concern me . (Going with my yr12 class) Butch big guy was loud and rather strong. Thomas. Tall guy had a mean right hook. Lily. She is a black belt in karate. Everyone else could take them no problem
-
Me vs an island of tiny Japanese kids? This is hardly ethical...
-
Kill -blam!-in' everyone Great film 2...not so much
-
Okay...haven't seen it. *prepares hate shield*
-
I know literally no-one in my class that could realistically challenge me, i know archery, i can sword-fight, im strong too, my choice would be to hunt them down, kill them outright, but if anyone had a firearm it would be stealthy time, but im a brit, at least i have a [i]little[/i] experience with firearms, but most dont
-
Kill myself listening to that annoying Japanese girl.
-
Honestly, I'm probably the only one in my class that could kill another human being and even then I'm not sure. I would use a crossbow, but I'd definitely try to beat the game or escape/kill the people in charge.
-
Not sure if i have chance but give me time i may be able to succeed. Honestly i would prefer to find a way to defeat the game.

Edited by Byrne: 5/2/2014 10:08:02 AMNo point in crying over spilled milk. Someone is going to die it won't be me. [spoiler]I -blam!-ing love that film.[/spoiler]
-
So why are we not funding this in real life?
-
I prefer the manga. The film was silly.
-
I would as usual be a complete badass and win
-
I shall have a katana and shall kill everyone. For Hydra!
-
Hide.
-
brah I don't play those little girl games I'm into the manly shit (the most dangerous game) pleb
-
I get a hatchet. With that simple tool I can make many other tools, kill people, and start a fire. I will lure people into an area of dry brush and set it ablaze, burning them. I would kill them all, no mercy and no remorse. It would be so much fun.
-
my high school class that graduated with me would all die. the track and field people would last for a while, but everyone else would be -blam!-ed. me? find a nice tree, set some traps and let everyone else run around like a chicken with their heads cut off. hope i survive. becker bk-7 is my weapon of choice.

It's been on netflix for at least a year now... [spoiler]It's "IKUZO" btw[/spoiler]
-
"No talking in class, BITCH!"

[quote]For the plebs and peasants, this is the original hunger games.[/quote]Actually it's based on Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man," in which one section features black youths being pitted against one another in a pit fighting match in front of important white men.
-
With my class there is no chance I'd lose. I hate to say it but they would just die. My weapon would be a chainsword and I would merrily cut people's heads off.
-
Bump for the Bump god.

Edited by Upperclass Bum: 5/2/2014 3:10:05 AMI'd die instantly. On a side note, I could have sworn it was already on Chodeflix as that is what I watched it on, but then again that was more than a year or so ago, so it was probably removed then added again.
