Battle Royale binge

I planned to have an early night last night, I really did... but I found a link to screenshots of pretty much all of the BR movie, and sort of spent the evening looking at them. So I have now read the subtitles of the movie, and seen a sort of comic strip formed of screenshots, but haven't actually seen the movie itself. When I went to sleep, I dreamed I was Shuuya Nanahara and I was the only one left alive apart from Kazuo Kiriyama (whose movie incarnation is VERY scary, even in screenshots). I shot a gun at him and hit him in the forehead, but it didn't kill him - he got up and started chasing me, so I ran up some stairs into one of the classrooms at my old school, knowing that if I got up high enough I might be safe and also hoping that the people in the classroom (there was a lesson going on) might protect me. As I got into the room, I turned back into me, and Kazuo, who'd chased after me, turned into Ryan, the guy who directed Oklahoma - and I remembered this was all a game, we were just roleplaying BR. My gun had vanished (as had my icky beige school uniform - I mean, sheesh) so I made a gun shape with my fingers, pointed it at Ryan, and "fired" - he laughed and admitted I'd won, but I knew by doing that I'd actually killed Kazuo. Then I just stood there for a while telling myself how well I'd done and how I'd been competent and brave and it had all worked out - but I was still jumpy.

I'm not expecting anyone to care - I want a record of this dream, cos I think it was weird ^_^

The subtitles? I've seen masses of screenshots, but never transcriptions. I probably wasn't looking hard enough. ^^

Movie!Kiriyama is effing creepy. Did you get any screenshots of him laughing when people try to kill him? Yeesh.

And yes, a very strange dream. Very strange. XD

Oh, okay - I'll have a quick look round.
Well, he doesn't have any lines, but his facial expressions generally make up for it. Creepy git.
Yes, definitely poor Yumiko. Bastard. ^^
Yeah, that's a good point - although, I suppose manga!Kiriyama could have done to be a bit less willing about it, at least he didn't voluntarily sign up to kill these kids he's never met. (Of course, that's made worse in the manga by the fact that he's known most of them for a couple of years)
