Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology Blu-ray

Somebody here ALWAYS gets big Blu releases early and this comes out in just a couple days.

Does anybody here have pics of the front, back and insides of the cases?

RazMansReality · 03-09-2009, 02:35 PM

Awesome but no slip covers

jw · 03-09-2009, 02:38 PM

no real difference from the uk counterparts, that kinda sucks

Why would you want slipcovers if they're in a boxed set? Is a shame to see the discs housed in those extra slim cases.

P@t_Mtl · 03-09-2009, 06:34 PM

I was kind of waiting to see a review on these, wasnt sure if I wanted to upgrade my set but I must say from the pics they look awsome

Looks like the normal cases to me and that's what the description says as well.

I like slip covers. To me they keep the cases extra protected from dust and whatnot.

SethRex · 03-10-2009, 03:43 AM

So, will those covers, with simply the logos, actually be on the american blu-rays as well? That's what it implies, but I'm not holding out any hope until I see proof.

Yep I have my Region A Batman box and the individual covers are the logo versions.

Sad to see that the original Batman with Michael Keaton got a so-so review at best as far as audio, and just a decent one for the video. I know it's 20 years old, but I hoped they could really wow me with it as it was my favorite of the set.

Is it available for purchase seperately, or are we stuck buying the whole box here in the U.S.?

you could import the first one

JJ · 03-10-2009, 03:44 PM

Yes, I'll probably just end up buying only the first two, imported, from J.B. up there - don't want to get those last two in the box-set....lol.

A FREEZE IS COMING! lmao. Ohh man, maybe just for Mr. Freeze's cheesefest though.

Meeklo · 03-10-2009, 05:04 PM

I just bought this. Sadly they are slim cases and the Blu logo across the top is apart of the cardboard piece on the back that has all the details. Once you open the shrinkwrap, this cardboard piece falls off leaving the back of the case just black.

Slim cases really? Wow, the UK boxes are thick, and US are slim? In the picture it looked like they were standard cases.

Just got back from BB and to confirm yes they are slim. And that has confirmed me buying the imports lol

sg2386 · 03-10-2009, 06:37 PM

I picked up the Anthology today and what i hate is the cheap cardboard box the the movies are stored in. For a high price of $100 atleast Warner should have stored the movies in a hard box like with the Bourne Trilogy.

So instead of buying the slim cases, you'll buy the thicker import cases? Seems like a lose-lose if you're after standard BD cases. Personally, I'm fond of anything that takes up less case, so slim cases are great.
