Get Batman movies now or wait for boxset? - Blu-ray Forum

bone crusher · 10-27-2010, 09:14 PM

I want to get the two Christopher Nolan Batman movies but I am thinking that Warner will probably release a really deluxe trilogy box set with all three movies once The Dark Knight Rises comes out. Do you think it would be worth it to hold out on a super set of this trilogy?

Depends on whether you want to get them cheap(I believe TDK is $10 and BB can probably be found for the same price) or if you want to shell out more for special features.

Blu-Benny · 10-27-2010, 09:26 PM

why wait until x-mas 2012 to get 2 awesome movies??

i've never understood that.

it's not like you wouldn't be able to sell them if a trilogy box set is released, there are always gonna be people looking for cheaper copies when super-sets like that are released.

Since it won't be another 2 years before "Batman 3" comes out, I'd just pick up 1 & 2 cheap. If you buy them for like $9 each now, you can't really regret selling them at a loss if you want a proper box set in 2012 since you didn't pay all that much to get them.

I say buy them, both titles are quite affordable right now.

Why do you need anyone to answer this question for you?

Actually no, don't. Wait untill 2024, when you can have a a six film boxset. May be a long wait, but you'll be glad you saved an extra 30 bucks 14 years ago.

I LOVE SARCASM!!! It makes my world go 'round!

My opinion? At this point in the game, pick up the two existing Nolan movies. They are really great titles to own, and can be had cheaper than ever - $10 to $15. If we were very close to the time of the BD release of The Dark Knight Rises, only then it might be worth it to wait, and then, the "trilogy box set" might set you back $50 or a lot more.

No! I say give me the money instead

Why wait for so long when you can get both films from Amazon at great prices?

Home Th3atre · 10-27-2010, 10:46 PM

I would wait there will probably be a new special feature in the future boxset.

MyBlu-rayBrotherEd · 10-27-2010, 10:46 PM

As CZAR would say:

Get 'em!

this is really impressive and hypnotizing

iam1bearcat · 10-27-2010, 11:15 PM

chances are, the "box set" will come in a cardboard slipcase that goes over the 3 movies that are individually cased (a la Resident Evil / X-Men trilogy) with no new features, but a much higher price tag because it comes in a new cardboard case

so if i were you, i would definitely wait.
seems logical

Wait until 2040 and mega-ultra-HD comes out with the "classic" Batman movies set on literal thumbnail-drives that you attach to your finger like Lee's press-on nails to beam directly into your brain.

Or buy them now for about $10 each and enjoy!
