Battle Royale

the movie wasnt even released in the US, we had to watch it in subtitles.

You watch dubbed films in the states? *shudder*

Only children's movies are dubbed in Finland...

Also: BR was okay-ish. Just violence and mayhem. There are better films from Japan. But for some reason, ultra-violent asian films are automatically considered as high-quality art (like Audition which was incredibly mediocre).

You've noticed that too?
I think it's mostly because they make original movies.
But honestly, watching anything non-american is pretty original if you ask me.
