Dear idiot fanboys of the United States (and quite possibly other places that speak English natively): Fucking write the name of the movie as Battle Royale, not as batoru rowaiaru, you fucking idiots. I have the Japanese DVD, and it has it written as Battle Royale. In English. Do you know /why/ that is? Because the katakana is the closest approximation to the English words that Japanese allows.

Look, dummies, you speak English. You do not need to speak in approximations of English words. I know this may be a shock, but English is your native language. It's not like the movie is titled some complex combination of kanji characters (or pictograms, if you like) that can't easily be expressed in English because of its subtle layers of double meanings. It's a fucking English title! Write it in English, you sons of bitches!

If you want to write in katakana, write it in katakana, not a half-assed romanization of the kana, you stupid lazy fuckers. It doesn't make you look smart, it makes you look like an idiot to anyone who actually knows any Japanese.
