"My favorite movie of all time." -Quentin Tarantino Makes sense.

Damn, Takeshi's Castle really got out of hand.

This trailer is a masterpiece. And surprisingly, the actual film is more hype than the trailer. Before you know it, the two hour runtime will feel like minutes.

Battle Royale is one of the greatest and most influential movies of the 21st century. It's had a huge impact on 21st-century popular culture, from movies like Kill Bill and Hunger Games, to anime like Fate/Stay Night and Sword Art Online, to video games like PUBG and Fortnite. EDIT: And now shows like Squid Game and Alice in Borderland.

Is there possibly a better quote to sell you movie than “This is my favourite movie ever” - Quentin Tarantino

After this movie, a genre was created in Japanese movies, novels, and comics: "Unreasonably junior and senior high school students are killed in school except one or two of the main characters."

Hunger games: Can I copy your homework Battle Royale: Yeah, just changed it up a bit so it doesn't look so obvious.

the original creator of Battle Royale .

Yes, the Hunger Games is NOT an original idea.

The formula seen in Hunger Games, Mirai Nikki, PUBG, the Fate/series, Fortnite, Squid Game, and Alice in Borderland just shows that the Battle Royale formula never grows old.

this movie was an influence for Squid Game and you can’t convince me otherwise

To: Hollywood "Rose are red Violets are blue There's always an asian Who's better than you..."

Winner winner chicken dinner

Here after tbz concept photos 😭

I watched this film a few weeks ago, and it was a beautiful masterpiece. Tons of emotional scenes and suspense, whilst also sparking my interest into Japanese culture, Battle Royale is truly one of my favourite films of all time. ⚡

The scenes for some of the characters were so short but they left a big impact. That plus the perfectly timed music plus the bleak environment plus the suddenness of everything PLUS the emotions of the characters made for a really great film! The lighthouse scene explains it all: One minute they were all friends full of hope that they'd escape, the next minute were at each others throats over the smallest suspicion! Another way to tell a film is good is when it spend almost the whole movie developing a character to be the 'bad guy' but then you're made to feel bad for them when they die!

Good graphics, definitely buying this game

Let's take a moment to reflect without this movie Squid Game and Hunger Games would not exist

BR, Squid Game, Hunger Game, all actually shows the true nature of us humans in our most primal state of survival.

This is like a darker version of Takeshi s castle.

"My favorite movie of all time" Quentin Tarantino - that moment that you realize the movie is good

Who is here after madan gowri video

The original squid game

This is from 2000 and The Hunger Games is from 2012. So yes, Hollywood ripping off asian films... again.

Never seen, hear of or even knew this movie ever existed before tonight. I was just browsing Netflix, saw it and thought "Hmm that looks interesting." and decided to watch it. and HO-LEE Shit was it one of the best decisions I've ever made!! Ended up being one of my favorite movies ever made! The experience was made even better by the fact that I went in totally clueless! Best way to watch a movie, ever!

NOTHING WILL EVER COMPARE TO BATTLE ROYALE!!!

So sad many people only know Kinji Fukasaku thanks to this jawbreaking film. He made some of the most violent and breakneck thrillers during the 70's and 60's, like Violent Panic: The Big Crash, Graveyard of Honor, Sympathy for the Underdog or the epic The Yakuza Papers

Some people say this is overrated but I watched the DVD and consider it one of the best movies ever made, I wouldn't change a thing about it, I guess it is perfect.

The movie that inspired all Battle Royal games today lol

Korea has no creativity and no copyrights 🌚

Squid Game: Can I copy your homework Battle Royale: Yeah, just changed it up a bit so it doesn't look so obvious.

Everyone: PUBG Fortnite The Hunger Games Me: hey isn't that the guy who played Light in the live action Death Note movie?

This movie is so perfectly directed. It was able to compress an insainly wordy book(the characters detail everything about themselves and there thoughts on their experiences. the book is very blunt and straight forward with out anything left up to the imagination) into a fast pace action filled drama that let most of the talking be done with the charachters expression and actions. Thus making it a very quiet film.

Ok i might be kpop and kdrama fan but i can't deny that squid game was a mix of some japanese works from Kaiji, liar game, battle royale, and the movie as the god will its very similar like even the doll thing and the games, and when i watched squid game i felt something reminding me Alice in borderlands... I wish the director gave credit to Japanese works !

This movie started the era of "Battle Royale"

even Quentin Tarantino LOVES it!!!

This is how the hunger games should be done.

After Nevada dan Story Any one 🙂🙂

How many of you are watching this trailer this quarantine 2020 Edit:- we are gonna watch this movie two decades later

BATTURU ROYARUU!

"we'll always be friends" We know thats a straight up lie

my dad showed me this movie when i was like 8, and that was the last time i saw it. came back to watch this and i still remember their faces

This is what Squid Game wanted to make. Japan has so much of these dystopian masterpieces unfortunately won’t be viral worldwide like Korean ones. (Partially because Japanese companies suck at internationalization)

Dark, gritty, disturbing, hilarious, and kinda cheesy... I liked this film! In fact it's probably one of my favorite foreign films.

Its just like a Disney-free, Hipster-free, Twilight-free, Emogoth-free Hunger Games but with real action, real danger, real people...

Make a game about this and call it Battle Royale battle royale

I was about 12-13 when I came across this movie, I'd never seen nothing like it, still one of my favorites

This is EASILY one of my favorite films of all time, Really want to learn Japanese and Korean so i don't need to use sub titles.

Who is here after madan gowri today's video

Iam here after Madan Gowri video✌ .....

just saw this on Netflix, best two hours I've had all month. this film is insane, and also a total blast. dark af

Battle Royale, The Hunger Games...wasn't it really Lord of the Flies that started it all?

The original SQUID GAMES!!

This classic has been out for 20 years. Appreciate it dammit!

Battle Royale came first before PUBG ends of argument

The one film that started it all. Pubg, H1Z1, Arma, ETC.

0:25 it should have been "The film that forever changed the face of Gaming" 😌

I've watched this movies almost 2 decades ago. I can't believe game developers made games like this just a few years ago.

Never did this company expect, that there will be a million games inspired by the movie.

there's a reason the H1Z1 KotK gamemode is called "battle royale" There's a reason the arma 3 mod is called "battle royale" and pubg.... it was based of off this and not THG

lol im here watching the battle royale’s trailer cuz the boyz’s comeback is near

"Some of you come from rich families, some from poor families. But circumstances beyond your control like that shouldn't determine who you are. You must realize what you're worth on your own." -Battle Royale the novel

Battle Royale is just a brutally sick but yet artistic movie I LOVE IT. The film always seems to be carrying a hidden message of sort in every scene why it also stays brutally entertaining, Its just so damn good. I want to see this film again already.

This is one of my favorite trailers of all time

0:52 when your friend picks up the AWM

Who came after madan gowri 🖖

Comparing the Hunger Games (which is a complete overrated tripe of a movie) to something as timeless as Battle Royale is like comparing dog feces to chocolate cake.

If I see one more comment compaing this to Hunger Games I'll scream.

Did you Know? . This Movie : BATTLE ROYAL was the Influencer on why every games today Have Battle Royale Mode

I see people comparing this movie to other ones , there is no comparison.

How japan predicted a gamers future

Classical music + movies that explore conditions under which the border between good and bad becomes significantly more vague = awesome

The Korean director of Squid Game stole the idea of ​​this movie 100%

"Oh, that's a great idea!" - Author of the Hunger Games.

I like to pretend that Battle Royale is actually the final stage of Takeshi's castle.

I just watched this movie earlier. For me this is one of the greatest movies ever made in history. The story is so compelling and the film is a timeless classic. This is probably my most favorite movie now.

It's safe to say that this movie alone inspired the battle Royal Game mode for video games Convince me otherwise.

This is the real squid game.

This trailer has me shaking, the piano is eerily beautiful

the lighthouse scene alone > the whole THG movies.

Quentin Tarantino brought me here. Thank you Quentin.

Any one after madan gowri

Thanks a lot, Suzanne Collins for copying off of this brilliant masterpiece...

Part 2: Also the contenders in Battle Royale are a class of students. Not strangers, but a close knit community of people with long-time grudges, affections and feelings in general which makes the situation all the more tragic and sad. In short: I think Battle Royale has more depth and you can relate to the characters a whole lot more, making the film a truly thrilling experience.

people who think Squid Game is a revolution should (re)watch this movie

This movie was an influence for Pubg....Fortnite...freefire....squid game....hunger games.....

People are going to want to watch this because they played H1z1 or pubg

I am reading the book right now as part of a book club. As someone who read and enjoyed the Hunger Games, this is so much more intense. What is scary about this is that you can also see how it might be plausible. I think my bookclub and I should watch this at our next meeting.

This makes The Hunger Games look like a Disney film

I literally just finished watching it, and oh my god........this movie was crazy insane but awesome at the same time. Definitely a 10/10 movie.

One of the best movies of all time. Hands Down. Without Question

Omg awesome close captions at the end "shot, explosion, shot explosion, shot, explosion, lol." XD

When people say Squid Games is the most original thing they’ve seen I send em here 🚀✅

I’m only here because Gintama casually mentioned this in a note during an episode, and the plot sounded intriguing, so here I am.

I've been a huge fan of the whole BR franchise since i was in high school and now I'm 30. I read all the manga's and watch the movie and never see anything else like it and its crazy because Hollywood loves the idea and came out with The Condemned and Hunger Games and then companies came out with so many different battle royale games and now its all hyped...

This film was incredible... I read the book beforehand and even that made me cry. Violent, shocking, thought-provoking. It has it all, really.

Long time earlier before Squid Game

Kind of wild how this movie was presented in 2000, and yet you can watch it in possibly any present time and in no way does it feel dated or aged.

I'm 15 and female and literally the only Battle Royale fan among my friends. Whenever I mention Battle Royale, they start rambling on about The Hunger Games. When I even said to them, "Am I the only one who doesn't really like The Hunger Games?", they immediately began gasping and saying, "How could you not like it?" and whatnot. It makes me feel bad coz I've seen the film version and currently reading the manga and novel of Battle Royale and I have to say, the story is so much more gripping than The Hunger Games. It has struck me emotionally and the use of psychological elements make it worth turning the page over and over. The harshness of human nature is brilliantly explored. With that said, I don't mind The Hunger Games, I only read/watched it because of it's rise in popularity, but it wasn't the book/movie for me; I could hardly feel the characters and didn't even like Katniss at certain points, the love triangle almost destroyed it for me but I kept my patience until the end. I also read Catching Fire and thought it was much better but gave up after chapter 5 of Mockingjay. I do hope there are other teenage fans of Battle Royale but if not then I will still treasure it by my heart.
