While I'm glad these are coming on Blu-Ray, I'm holding out for individual releases. I don't need to own the last two, even for the sake of pure comedy. |

WOOT! Finally finally finally. I'll get all of them - even though the last two were pure torture and Val Kilmer was terrible at playing The Dark Knight... but still a must have none-the-less! |

I'm sick of not getting individual disc releases here in the states. Just because we like half of the anthology automatically means that we want to shell out the money for all of them. I imported the first two and they are exactly the same and you don't get the two abominations that come in the set. I'm pumped they are finally releasing The Matrix on it's own. I have the Ultimate Awesomeness edition on DVD and I don't need it again on Blu-ray. |

Honestly, I'm hoping they have individual releases for these movies. The first two Tim Burton movies
were wonderful, while the Joel Schumacher movies were complete abominations. If you can only get
the movies in a boxed set then better be priced pretty aggressively. |

I'll hold out for individual release too, the first two were great, but I'd never watch 3 and 4, so terrible. |

Anybody see a price tag associated with this collection? In this economy, some of us really have to ask, "How much?" |

I & II = Two Great Tim Burton Films
II = One of my favorite movie experiences
III = A skip fest used only to find scenes of Nicole Kidman in her (visual) prime
IV = Free drink coster!!!! |

I actually liked all four of these movies, especailly Uma Thurman's portrail of Poison Ivy in Batman and Robin. |

I know, weird that Amazon does not have a preorder...
I too want only 1 and , but with the DVD I went for the set as the price of the first two sperately was almost the same as the whole set... I think I'll do the same with this one... the box was nice and while I don't love Schumacher versions it wouldn't hurt me to watch them again in hi-def |

Nice set, but I refuse to own Batman and Robin, which is the WORST movie of all-time. |
