Batman 1966 Tv Series

[Alhlan Ain Ajeeba]

Id prefer a Uk release instead of importing from USA because of duty taxes. Any realistic chance of a UK version?


POW!

Yes, given they can just copy the US masters there's a fairly big possibility. But don't necessarily expect Italian audio and subs, especially if it is a direct port of the US release.

I dont mind about the subs,I just hope its not 1 of those releases that comes a whole year after the USA release.

Also , can we assume Warner owns the rights in Europe as well ?

I wouldn't assume who owns the rights, but I highly doubt they'd do a deal just for America...

I hope they do release it here... but I have a friend from the US coming to visit in November so I'll get her to bring me my copy over if it's not

I would imagine they would try and hit on the Christmas market on these shores as well.

I think there's a good chance of this happening. I live in norway and i found this today: http://cdon.no/film/batman_-_the_com...-ray)-27703510
Even though it's only a placeholder it wasn't there some weeks ago, so i suspect that they will release it in other countries than the US.

I'd imagine it will get a release here but probably cheaper than the States and with very basic packaging rather than a the bells-and-whistles boxes they'll get.

The USA preorders started today. I would say if we dont see a UK preorder in the next 2 weeks its not looking good.

Do you have a link so we can guess pricepoints?

I'm curious about two things:

When the paper slip comes off, is the box art underneath free of BBFC certificates?

And do the discs include all of the relevant titles? WB UK sets have a tendency to leave off the film/TV title (see Superman, Elm Street, etc).

[tenderheartbear]

Once you remove the slip, there's no certificates anywhere on the packaging. It really is just the US box with a bit of paper on it.

Do you mean on the discs themselves? There's no mention of the episodes on the labels. Just season 1, disc 1 etc.

That sounds good re: the outer box.

I didn't expect episode titles on the discs but if the "Batman" title and season/disc numbers are there, then I'm happy.

I assume the BBFC certs are printed on the discs?

Sorry for sounding anal. Was going to import but seems like the UK box is worthy of consideration :-)

Thanks!

Mine's just arrived and everything is identical to the US set, other than UK classification symbols on it, which are just sticks.

And on the discs themselves presumably?

[Rocklandsboy]

Not bothered about UV either. I buy blu-ray to watch something big and glorious. Not some tiny sized version on a mobile device :-)

Really impressed with this. Really nicely packaged, nice big sturdy box.

I know there were some concerns about how the Batmobile would be packaged, especially with the see-through section. But it's all very nicely done. And the sound effect button was a nice surprise!

My only wish is that the scrapbook was a bit more substantive. But apart from that, it's a fantastic set!

My only wish is that the scrapbook was a bit more substantive, and the Batgirl short is a glaring omission. But apart from that, it's a fantastic set!

Have you checked the section rarities from the vault, batgirl short should be there.
