  • Well I dont care

    Hunger Games and Battle Royale both seem awesome

  • HG is about a rebellion, BR is more about the loss of innosence...

  • @Z3r0K1ll4h BR is pure rebellion, don't talk shit and watch the movies stupid!!!

  • @MaxiNiki I have seen BR, and I know what it's about. And no, it isn't about a rebellion, it's about some kids who decides to break away from their governments plans.

  • Comment removed

  • The Hunger Games is waaay different than this movie!!! Yes, they're similar, but the only thing they have in common is kids killing each other. Other than that, they're just different movies. Nobody ripped anybody off so just shut up and grow up!!

  • @elidaterrero you obviously haven't read both books.

  • @elidaterrero Read the books you stupid girl!!! Battle Royale is the Original and the Hunger Games is pure shit copied from this bitch S.C.!!! There is so much copied I can't believe my eyes!!! F*** Y** from Japan!!!

  • Is this movie worth watching?

  • Imagine Katniss,Peeta,Gale,Rue in this...imagine them not lasting the first 20 minutes...

  • i like the hunger games but it does seem a little simliar to this movie... But it seems a whole lot different too

  • Anyone who thinks Hunger Games ripped off Battle Royale obvs have only seen the trailer. And not read the book.

  • @ynwtiger no they ripped them off big time, read both books, hunger games took it down to the smallest details, especially with the villians

  • Lol whoever says The hunger games ripped of this trash OBVIOUSLY has not read the books. Probably have only seen the trailers.

  • @asandman94 I have read both books and the HG completely ripped it off. You sir, are an idiot. I doubt you've even read BR. You don't deserve to read the masterpiece that the Hunger Games copied.

  • @Crumpfan11 Lol i doubt you have. Besides the overall setup, they are not much of a comparison. The only reason people bash the hunger games and do so with battle royal's motives is because the hunger games got immensely popular in such a short time span, more then battle royal ever will.

  • @asandman94 Lol! What do you mean they don't compare much? You are an idiot sir, and I could care less how popular the Hunger Games got. What annoys us is the People like you asking "OMG have you read the Hunger Games? Its Incredible and a great idea for a book!", when it is a complete copy off of Battle Royale. Why don't you quit reading Wikipedia and go read the book?

  • @Crumpfan11 I see once again you have brought up both books. Like i said besides the overall idea there is many differences. You can say all you want that you read both books such as i have but its obviously apparent you have not. When you do come back and then we will talk.

  • dont hate on the movie hate the book and the author the movie is just about the book

  • hunger games is a BIT like this, but much more updated and made for a diverse audience. it has love stories, 3 series, adventure, and wayyy better outfits :D

  • Why is there even hate? sure the Hunger Games and Battle Royale share a common 'fight to death/game/teenagers' theme but both of the stories are very VERY different (concerning purpose, outcome and audience), each to their own. I think both the stories complement the other, it's similar to how Vampire-love-triangle stories are very similar to eachother in plot but are still unique. At the end of the day, the 'Games' (Both Battle Royale and Hunger) are very entertaining so I'm not complaining =)

  • hahaha. I only cam here cause I have seen this movie a very long time ago and now, I am reading The Hunger Games and I was like.... this book is kinda like that movie Battle Royale. but I am not against the hunger games, in fact, I love it. It just doesn't impress me that much anymore because I have an idea and I have watched the same kind of story before.

  • Is this book in English? (it was origionaly a book)

  • @OmnomTheDevourer I'm pretty sure it's Japanese but there may be a translated version, maybe

  • @m2mfan4eva There is one

  • @OmnomTheDevourer Yes there is a translated novel and the manga was translated too. You can read it on manga fox online in english

  • Stop comparing this to Hunger Games, I'm a fan of both, but there's a difference, there are similarities, but still, there are differences, example, in Hunger Games, they are aware of the games, the students here are unaware. Stop the hate okay? I'm sure some of those haters haven't even read the Hunger Games or Battle Royale. They just hate it for the sake of going with the flow. Have respect to the authors.

  • @riaalexisgonzales Your the only smart one, you understand.

  • When he says no whispering, he's SERIOUS.

  • I'm sorry Karami, what are Philip K Dick's Ubit, Whatever Happened to baby Jane, and Running Man? Oh, and Akira took a shit load from Blade Runner and William Gibson Cyber punk.

  • I come in peace.. But I like BR and also HG D:

  • I see Battle Royale/Hunger Games have become the new Harry Potter and Twilight.

    Have at it, folks! 

  • @NessaRayGibson Battle Royale is older then the Harry Potter movies and Twilight o.o

  • @Nobody13579ify I'm not stupid. I know this.

    If you understood my comment, which, clearly, you didn't, then you would have known I was making a comparison.

    Fans of Twilight hate Harry Potter because they think HP copied their precious movie. (They obviously don't know how to read release dates; HP came out first. (Books AND movies.))

    Now people think BR copied HG, and vice versa. Meaningless feuds.

  • @NessaRayGibson gosh no need to get so touchy -.-

  • @Karami actually hunger games is book from a series and you can read up on her inspiration for the books which definitely isn't some stupid jap movie, and asian film markets are always making remakes, knock offs and shitty sequels to European/North American Films.

  • @SnakeEyesElite You best hold your tongue and do some research of your own. Battle Royale is a book that was published in 1999. This is a trailer for a movie adaptation of that book. The hunger games do have a lot of striking similarities to Battle Royale which may or not be intentional (Collins is claiming not), but to me it's kind of like Fern Gully and Avatar. Just very many similarities that are noticeable

  • why do people come to this vid to fight whether HG is better or worse than BR? stop whining about the inoriginality of HG and the rest of america as if that would make you sound cool, because locking people up to kill each other off one by one is NOT an original idea created by battle royale. It's probably one of the most common plot devices out there. criticize movies for what they are, not for what you falsely accuse them to be.

  • I said "No Whispering"

    no Hunger Games tonight

  • I have read both Battle Royale and The Hunger Games and love them both. Yes they both have somewhat of the same concept but does that make one any better than the other? If they both have the same concept and you like one of them why not try out the other? That's what I did. After that make your conclusion, don't assume one if worse because it has a similar concept because honestly that makes you a hypocrite, all i'm saying is to read both than make your final conclusion.

  • battle royale's awesome, because it creates something that american movies can't do very well, and that's to take such an ugly concept and emotionally move you, america are all about making money and making shitty repetitive movies with the same basic plots, i personally think japanese movies are more original and better, because they're not afraid to stray from the roughly-beaten path that the american film industry have walked through time and time again.

  • well I'm not a HG huters, in fact I'm enjoying the book and looking forward to watch the movie. But I've watched Battle Royale and it totally makes HG like toddler's development TV shows. just sayin'.

  • The Hunger Games looks so much better TBH. Even if the idea for pitting children against each other isn't original, the rest of the novel is. The make believe country of Panem, the distribution of the Districts, the role of the Peacekeepers, the existence of a secret district underground, a rebellion that overtakes the Capitol. They're all well developed ideas and show immense originality. The concept of people killing each other is centuries old. Battle Royale was not the first to do it. JS..

  • @princess4life27 You just described things that sci-fi writers have been writing about for decades. Therefore, Hunger Games is not original.

  • Hunger Games is for Twilight loving pussies.

  • @MrKaddus the hunger games is better then you will ever be and i wouldn't make fun of it to the thousands of people that love it

  • @Nightlock76 The Hunger Games, Twilight, Harry Potter,Linkin Park... how are all of these connected? They are the most overrated things in existence.

  • @Neane1993 hahahaha, Linkin Park?! who the fuck still cares about Linkin Park?

  • @Nightlock76 I don't give a shit, y'know why? Because the thousands of people that love it are the same thousands of people who love Twilight, and I could take those bitch ass punk mother fuckers on anyday of the week.

    Look at you, you come to a Battle Royal video and start whining about how Hunger Games is so great. Just proof of your insecurities. At least man up and admit that Hunger Games is just some half assed ripoff of Battle Royale.

  • I love hunger games :D

  • lol.. funniest trailer i ever saw

  • i still LOVE the hunger games

  • 予告でもう殺されてる女優さん

  • Paprika inspired Inception

    Perfect Blue inspired Black Swan

    Hunger Games totally ripped off of Battle Royale.

    When are Americans going to be original??

  • @Karami Hunger games didn't if you would know the author how did the author know about a book in japan i love the hunger games ur a dumbasss america had like the most movies produced each year so we dont copy

  • @Karami Do you really think the authors read/saw these Japanese books/films neither of which i'd even heard of before, and thought 'it's a good idea to copy... I might get law suits'.

  • @Karami Just because BR and HG have similar concepts doesn't mean that one is a ripoff of the other. Besides, the concept of people killing each other for entertainment has been around since the Roman Empire. 

  • @Karami Inception was released in 2010

    Paprika was released in 2006

    Christopher Nolan had worked on the Inception script for 7 years.

  • @Karami USA i would say...

  • @Karami Is Japanese original?

  • @VillaCR7Holic Yes they are. I want you watch Phantom requiem of the phantom, death note. code geass. angel beats. and one piece. Some of the best japanese originated shows you will ever see. You can watch the english dubbed versions of these on youtube and online. This movie is the worst adaptation of an incredible novel/manga. BTW a manga is a graphic novel which you should read. After doing all these things or at the first episode of each,then you will find yourself stupid for saying that

  • @Karami Don't forget, Akira inspired Chronicle..

  • @Karami Both movies are a rip off of ancient history.

  • @Karami

    hunger games and battle royale both originated from lord of the flies.

  • @Myivorypiano You could also say Lord of the Flies originated from Heart of Darkness. If you had read Battle Royale you would realize how close the Hunger Games copies it, and would know its a fake.

  • @Myivorypiano no shit, everything can be based off Lord of the Flies. I've read it, re-read it, own it, it's one of my favorite books. The idea of kids being rounded up by adults and then forced to kill each other FOR adults' viewing pleasure is different from kids crash landing on an island and then going feral when their efforts to work together fail, bringing out the ugly from inside them.

  • @Karami Don't forget the Departed copied Infernal Affairs. But hey, at least the ADMITTED it.

  • @Karami remember that Jacob's ladder inspired Silent Hill, just as HP lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe and many other horror writers inspired a lot of the horror themes seen today including those seen in a lot of Japanese media

    however the I agree that the Hunger Games did rip off Battle Royale

  • Comment removed

  • @Karami ignorant...THG is not a remake or a copy, it´s based on a book, whose autor NEVER heard of battle royale of course!

  • @ephimer I bet you read that from Wikipedia, didn't you? Try reading both books.

  • One of my favorite movies!

  • This is absolutely the weirdest movie I have every watched by a mile, seriously go watch it and you will know what i mean..

  • Like if you came here from the Hunger Games haters

  • @soccergirlforever04 like if you hate the hunger games.

  • just watched it...kinda sucked, NEEDs to be remade with better quality fight scenes and special effects, and better actors xD

    the teacher's death at the end was really bad....

  • @vict0r1ous The graphic novel is WAY better

  • oooooooo survivor, drama, freaky japanese violence ...i like

  • The Hungar Games are like shit against this masterpiece!!!

  • @MaxiNiki Bahahahah, the movie isn't even out yet!

  • @LizofLamont Number One Rule: "You can't Beat Takeshi!!!"

  • @LizofLamont Number One Rule: "You can't Beat Takeshi!!!"

  • Firstly, HG is American and BR is Japanese - I think if SC wanted to ENTIRELY copy BR, she would have gotten a Japanese translater. This is like the Harry Potter/Twilight all over again.

  • Can i just say The hunger games is not a total rip off

  • Comment removed

  • Isn't everyone being a little harsh to mimi162757, all she said is she prefers The Hunger Games and she doesn't think they're that similar. She's allowed her own opinions even if you disagree with them.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 Type in battle royale volume 1 manga fox and try it out for free and if you still like it less than the hunger game then your opinion will viable instead of getting small info fro the internet and basing your opinion around that. Just remember that it can be very mature and if you can not handle that there is always the novel which is cheap.

  • @abusanth Also manga is read right to left

  • Comment removed

  • You know...it is possible to like Battle Royale AND The Hunger Games, right?

  • People, BR and THG are both different and unique in their own way. Differences :

    1. BR HAS KIDS THAT GET KIDNAPPED FROM SCHOOL. PEOPLE IN THG DO NOT GET KIDNAPPED. THEY ARE CHOSEN OR VOLUNTEERED

    2. Is there a mention of any love in BR at all? I think not.

    3. BR has no hoverplanes, bow and arrows, arenas, Capitol, Training Center, Districts, Avoxes, drunk mentors, outrageous fashion, etc

    STOP FUCKING COMPARING & JUST ENJOY THE DAMN MOVIES. 1 similarity: People must fight to the death. That's it

  • I wish this was mad into an amine instead of stupid live action since this is way worser than the manga/novel

  • Battle Royale > Hunger Games....deal with it

  • @mimi162757 I've read all three: The Running Man, Battle Royale, and the Hunger Games. RM had the same "idea" of humans set out to hunt each other with BR. The similarities end there. HG copied BR from the plot setting of a post-apocalyptic world, totalitarian government, prize of wealth for the winners, fucked up landscape, 2 main characters pairing up, evil "frontunners" of the game, et cetera. The similarities are dizzying to list!

    Go die in your shallow hole.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 I am sick of blind fangirls like you. HG is a complete rip-off of BR. That's a well-established fact for us who actually took the time to read both books plus allegedly similar novels. Shallowness runs in teenagers nowadays. Case in point-you.

  • @mimi162757 no actually, you dont have good taste in movies, no one does because everyone has different taste in movies. i love horror films and i think they are great but someone else might think they suck. and just because you love pirates doesnt mean anything, i bet you have never seen any other johnny depp movies or orlando blooms or keira knightly. and im not arguing, im responding back.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 lol and you think hunger games is better than battle royale. omg your so funny rofl. no. your are just another person who thinks they have great taste in movies just because they like blockbusters.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 hunger games is a movie umm thats why you are here. did you forget already? and pirates is a blockbuster movie. hmmm i would think you would know this since you have "good taste" in movies. i guess you don't. poser much.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 i dont usually like insulting people when arguing, but you have got to be the stupidest person i have ever met -_- a blockbuster movie, is a movie that is very popular. a poser means someone who likes popular things to fit in i.e. you. so please as i said before, do us all a favor and leave before you make a bigger fool of yourself. and you came here to start arguing with multiple ppl about how HG is better than BR, which its not.

  • @mimi162757 it was simple math it wasnt hard at all, you learn simple math in elementary. and memory has nothing to do with this conversation, and actually you are the one who started this, if you dont remember than go back to the conversations you started, you said you have a life but you came on this trailer and started arguments with multiple people. so sorry if i have no sympathy for you . you started it, im just finishing it.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 im in school and its sunday... do the math, oh right you cant. and as i said before, you started it, your mistake is thinking that no one was gonna respond back to you. i know you dont have an argument anymore thats why you are trying to stop talking. you're not an adult. if you were you wouldnt have came here in the first place. and you prey for me? what are you a lion. i PRAY for you to pay attention in class and learn more facts before you start something

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 oh wow boo hoo go cry me a river, stop being dramatic. i thought you were gonna be an adult, the sentence you just sent just proves you are not. you know what, i tired of this, you seriously are playing a victim, not even standing up for yourself. i have a 14 year cousin, thank god shes not like you, she backs herself up instead of whining.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 hahaha just remember you started it, im just finishing it. and its not bullying when its arguing and than someone backing down. and you never said you were sorry that you were wrong. just sorry you were annoying. so just stop. k, have a nice life, next time when you go on a video and you think you are right about something. make sure you have actually facts or you well look like a fool-(the one thing i'd call you).

  • @meyo33192 your calling me a fool now why thank you i really appreciate it ;)

  • @mimi162757 no worries, i call them how i see them ;D

  • @meyo33192 right back at you! ;]

  • @meyo33192 well i'm pretty sure it was public genius.

  • @mimi162757 i know my channel is public, still a creeper to go on it and look through it to find my name.

  • @meyo33192 isn't that whats it meant for? rofl

  • @mimi162757 not in this case. in this case, you went on my channel to creep. kinda weird, i guess we all know what you do on your spare time

  • @meyo33192 i go on ever ones channel that i'm talking to. :|

  • @mimi162757 wow, umm thats weird even for me, but if that makes you happy and tickles your nuts, go for it.

  • @meyo33192 um what eww creeper yourself. i'm not sure if you know this but your channel is meant for other people to see it or else it wouldn't be public. your really gross minded seriously. -_-

  • @mimi162757 how is saying creeper a gross thing? and yeah it public for ppl who want to contact me and be friends, not for investigating... thats just creeper status.

  • @meyo33192 nice to hear meyo and this is the last time i'm responding.

  • @mimi162757 alright, i know that you have to go and look at people channels. i know how busy you are. catch you on the flip-side ;D

  • @mimi162757 have you ever read battle royale? the running man had nothing in common except for hunting humans and killing them and being set in the future, thats it. if you read battle royale and the hunger games... its the SAME THING. hunger games is just a Americanized kid version of battle royale. same story plot. duh duh DUH.

  • Comment removed

  • @mimi162757 similarities: 1)school kids 2)both of the main characters fall in love and escape by breaking the rules 3)idea of supply bags 4)similar unique deaths (boy and girl survive) 5)set in a dystopian world and have cruel gov't 6)kids picked out in lottery & forced to kill each other 7)gamemakers vs forbidden zones (both lure kids together to kill each other

    Hunger Games is exactly the same as Battle Royale, same plot. Running man is not. only difference is that Battle Royale is better.

  • Guys, Both are good movies, now shut up and let everyone take the side they like best!! This is just like comparing twilight to other vampire movies. stop comparing cause they are all both really good, i love hunger games better than battle royal, but that doesnt mean battle royal is not good. everyone has a different opinion, so stop judging others for their opinions!!

  • Battle Royale and the Hunger Games have a similar premise. They're both good. Why is this a problem again?

  • So fun ^^
