Your expectations are too low, I'm expecting keys to a batmobile!

I want a Manta Lab full slip of this with the original poster art, at this point.

Dally you damn tease!

Could be my first MoC. I tend to like the simpler artwork that they choose, but some of them are just bland.

I bought Blade Runner (obviously), but I was underwhelmed. I think their releases would look nicer if they just put the Steels and pins inside a sturdy premium slip and not the clear plastic boxes that they do use. Still, I'm a dedicated Batstan, so unless the artwork is particularly hideous, I'll be picking up Batman 89.

Of course, I just bought the old 4k Steel a couple weeks ago.

Robopredinator · 01-20-2021, 11:07 PM

There was a 4K steelbook of Batman 1989 already?

Likely referring to the hideous 4K steelbooks.

Correct. They’re not the best designed Steels that's for sure but I wanted both it and Returns in 4k so opted for them over the standard release, which is an even worse cliched floating head design.

Robopredinator · 01-21-2021, 12:42 AM

Ah, forgot about the set. I was thinking about buying the blu ray steelbooks and placing the 4K discs in them but luckily this thread dropped. Hopefully it's a good design.

Will these need to be ordered thru UK vendors or will they eventually have a US release? I'm not familiar with Titans of Cult steelbooks.

RalphoR · 01-21-2021, 01:58 AM

I don't want to start double dipping on 4k releases but I'm probably going to start with this one. At least the 4k I bought was not a steelbook so...

Nagamura · 01-21-2021, 04:58 PM

Good time to upgrade my copy to 4K... if the artwork is good.

dallywhitty · 01-21-2021, 05:01 PM

Maybe if we join hands and pray really hard, Warner Bros will hear us and reauthor the UHD with the original audio.

andreasp19 · 01-21-2021, 05:39 PM

Maybe if we pray even harder, they won't butcher this release like they have almost all the ones that came before.

I married the 5.1 TrueHD from the first Blu-ray to the remastered Blu-ray...so...I'm close. I don't mind the new sound effects too much, but they're just so weird after all these years. Batman is one of those films where the audio plays like music because I've seen it so many goddamn times and if something is off, I know it instantly and it throws me off.

Chances of the oft-talked about Batman/Bob knife fight being on this release?

This is not gonna have any new content, just a repackage of the existing UHD.

Supposedly this is coming out on March 22nd. I wish they'd release pack shots already. I'm starving.
