Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology 1989-1997 (Batman / Batman Returns / Batman Forever / Batman & Robin) (Two-Disc Special Editions)

In association with Amazon.com
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Box Set! Shame on Amazon!
Well, I must tell you guys: this product is awesome! It has everything a fan of Batman needs and wants! The only bad thing about it (at least for me) was that I thought all the discs had Spanish subtitles and that was why I bought it, but then when it arrived home, I noticed that only the movies had the subtitles, the other discs with all the bonus features didn't.

I think Amazon should specify which discs have subtitles and which discs don't, so we -all the customers- know what we are going to get. Is it so difficult to write something like: AVAILABLE SUBTITLES: English, Spanish and French (only in discs 1, 3, 5, and 7). That would be fair; Amazon is not a garage shop, it is an international web site where people from all over the world buy products.





Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Batman
Very disappointed. The video has a bubbble in the plastic and does not play. I would like to exchange it. It was a Christmas present.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Batman began here
While I did not like all of the BATMAN movies especially the campy TV one. I found some of them interesting in how different actors approached the project. I was given a gift card for Xmas and I felt it was worth the money I did not spend personally. Holy Arnold Batman now he is The Govenator.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Simply Amazing!.....But.....
Ok....even though I used that title I agree with some.....
Batman Forever and Batman & Robin weren't as good as the first 2 Tim Burton flix.
BUT..........
It's Batman. Plain and simple. The acting was good. A bit over the top and "cartoony" under J.S.'s direction but the actors can't be blamed. Joel envisioned it that way. He didn't know the characters as well as Tim.
Clooney has been known to say that he had a hand in ruining the franchise. I disagree. George did a great job. He had the feel, look, heart and drive of Bruce Wayne/Batman.
Val did as well. Both men did excellent jobs with what they had to play with. I honestly believe that the "failure" of these movies was due to Schumacher's loss of vision of who The Batman really is. He looked at The Batman as a cartoon. If you're doing Spongebob Squarepants that's fine. But The Batman is dark, determined and won't let anything stop him from achieving his goal. The J.S. movies felt fake and limited.
The loss of Danny Elfman's music also added to the decline. Goldenthal is good.....but let's face facts....he's no Elfman. Danny has the gut feeling for the characters and the chops to bring everything he touches into a different world.
The main difference is the direction. Tim Burton is the man! Everything he touches turns to gold. He's great. We know it. His vision and integrity is what Hollywood should be all about.
All this being said I think, overall that the set deserves a good rating. It's nicely packaged and has a quality about it that will keep any fan interested.
Also.......
Check out BATMAN BEGINS! A new twist.....a new vision.....different, fresh....and right on the spot!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The gang's all here
Well here they are - all four of the Batman films made circa 1989-1997, all of them slicked up with trailers, audio commentaries, archive interviews, music videos, making of documentarie, character profiles, overview of Batman, everything die hard fans could possibly want. Even those who hate the Joel Schumacher helmed "Batman Forever" and "Batman & Robin" will find something interesting in the behind scenes material, chronicling the long, strange journey of Batman through the cinematic age.
