[Bat Attack]

I can't wait to pick this up!!! now all we need is a release date for the ****ing anthology!!! PS3 got a new update today too btw.

 

[Two-Face]

Excellent.

 

[Bat Attack]

It seems Fox is going all out for this one. too bad the tv series isn't coming to Blu, or DVD for that matter.

 

[ThreeActRomance]

oh god..

Adam West in eye bleeding 1080p resolution.

AWESOME!

 

[Bat Attack]

adam west's Batman is great. I love that whole series.

Damn legal woes but Batman The Movie come out on blu-ray is the best movie related news I've heard all week. Catsuited Julie Newmar in 1080p t:

 

[Bat Attack]

Edit!

 

[Mister J]

I don't deal with Blu-Ray, but I'm glad this is out there.

Now, if only the friggin' suits could get over themselves and work out something to release the damn TV series on DVD.

oh! i wrote "blue"

Fixed.

 

[Parents-Gun-Bat]

Jesus! This will hurt Batman once again. Will this wrong interpretation of Batman never be forgotten?

 

[Cain]

Yes because a movie that is over 40 years old will totally make the entire world forget of the further evolutions the character went through afterwards just because it's coming to Blu-Ray. Get over yourself.

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

Sweet, Im actually surprised thats the cover

 

[Parents-Gun-Bat]

Adam West is the Best Batman but the show and its environment suck.

 

[Cain]

I would've prefered the original poster ha ha it looks like a 1960's throwback to the B&R poster.

 

[Parents-Gun-Bat]

i think it looks cool and misleading. Perhaps a lot people will pick it up because they think it's a dark Batman movie and then they freak out!

 

[Cain]

But what if the back of the cover has all the movie info plus images? that more than likely will happen. The poster to say BATMAN is too iconic for anybody to confuse it with that one.

You talk as if people are too stupid to read.

When parents buy something as a present...

 

[Parents-Gun-Bat]

[Two-Face]

Again if that happens exchange it for anther Batman movie.
