Importing from a place like Amazon.co.uk is much easier than most realize. If you wanted the movies now and you really do not want the later sequels, I would get them from there. Someone should really write a step-by-step guide for importing Blu-rays and make it a sticky. Too many people seem frightened by a relatively simple process.

great idea, especially if it also listed links to (or provided info regarding) region code information and currency converters.

HA, i haven't imported a single movie so i wouldn't be the greatest resource (unless you were referring to someone else...). someone who has imported a lot and knows the ins and outs would probably be the best choice. thanks for the props tho

Well I've imported from various websites and stuff, so I wouldn't mind giving a few ideas. But I'm guessing some people are way better experts than I am.

I could give it a go if you like, but no guarantees.

Oh and my main problem would simply be coherent presentation, that's all. :P

I imported the first 2 films. No way I'm being forced to buy the last 2 films.

I also imported the first two only. I will not pay money for anything that includes Schumacher's garbage.

why do you need a guide to import them? go to www.amazon.co.uk and search batman and then buy (same as amazon.com)

Batman (1989) $12.98 equals $18.08 US
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Batman-Blu-r...3019988&sr=8-2

Batman Returns $12.98 equals $18.08 US
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Batman-Retur...xgy_d_h__img_b


Or it says get both for
Price For Both: £25.96 equals $36.16 US


also this thread http://forums.highdefdigest.com/blu-...ist-wants.html
over at hidefdigest.com from seller "saqibhasan101" is selling each batman movie for $20 US including shipping from from UK

The Batman blus I see on amazon.uk are all in PAL format.....did not think we could play those in North America. Are you suggesting we can play those in a Sony BDP S350 and view on a Kuro HDTV? Thank you in advance.
