Just watch it be pricey.. they want to make money on this.

Why on earth would anyone want a box set with 10 discs for one good movie and 2 pieces of crap? perhaps for the 'making of' one good movie and two pieces of crap?

they are tryin to milk every penny outa it they can. in the mean time they keep making the original great concept worse and worse.

If you don't mind me sking which one is the great one and which one is the good one?

I'm pretty sure one is Batman and the other is Batman Returns, but you never know some people love Batman forever (I'm more of a favor that Batman Forever is a decent and watchable movie unlike the last one)

Crash · 07-03-2004, 02:25 AM

I was all "new footage for reloaded, awesome"

then i saw it was only the footage from the game.... what a lame piece of crap.. I will not be getting this, and I liked all 3 movies.

I'd buy it if they took out reloaded and revolutions and maybe offered it for free with the purchase of an artificial cheese-based product.

Canyarion · 07-03-2004, 05:45 AM

I have TM, TMREL, RMREV, Enter the Matrix. My brother has the Animatrix. That's enough for me....

The original Batman is a great movie, the best superhero movie of all time.

Batman returns is a good solid movie.

The rest of the batmans are complete trash. getting worse with every one.
