"...and they said it wouldn't happen..."

Battle Royale's cult following has remained vigilant throughout this last decade, and it seems their wait has paid off.. though not exactly what they were expecting.

"Battle Royale 3D" is a reworking of the superior Battle Royale Special Edition, released in theaters in 2001. The controvertial story of students sent to an island and forced to compete in a last man standing free-for-all, has captured the admiration, imaginations, and interest of moviegoers the world over, and it seems TOEI company wasn't willing to let its' cult classic remain that way.

Adding 3D elements and re-enhanced CG special effects to the mix, an HD-remastered film reel, several scenes exclusive to the SE release, an enhanced/remastered audio track taking advantage of the latest DTS-HD sound technology, and a new track from the japanese queen of rock Anna Tsuchiya, BR3D aims to recruit a new generation of students when it premieres in japanese theaters November 20th, 2010.

The song's "Checkmate" by Anna Tsuchiya. I've seen it floating around Youtube for a while. I'll post it up when I have an HD/lossless version of it.

wouldn't the movie, that's already been filmed long ago, appear visually "dark" after its been converted to 3D? Which may or may not effect the movie experience depending on other ppl :/

[DJMixDeadly]

@FurubaGirl08 Believe it or not, the experience wasn't hampered at all with the conversion, only the suspension of disbelief. The 3D wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either - it's stuff you'd expect to have jump out at you. The dark spots were only visible during the night scenes(duh? :P) and they weren't as obvious if you weren't looking for them. The few "surprise" scenes were a nice touch, though. Still, if you've seen it once, you've seen enough. :)

what the name of the song?

[DJMixDeadly]

@tsukasa1608 "Checkmate" by Anna Tsuchiya. To my knowledge, the single hasn't been released.

man, along with bieber, 3D is overrated, why ruin Battle Royale

[DJMixDeadly]

@daratha In this case, Toei wants to know if there's still interest in the property. It was going to happen eventually, they just decided to tack on 3D for the new kids to enjoy. Japan's answer to Saw 3D, basically.

Reminds me of the film The Condemned.
