i think it's an utter waste of time to get the anthology box set dahil the last two flicks of the series are
crap.  just get the first two ones by burton because that is all that really matters and discard the ones by
schumacher.  storywise, they don't have anything to say besides destroying the tone of the first two bat flicks.
then again, for the completists out there, di kumpleto kaligayahan nila kung wala yung dalawa so...

Aaahhh! Are you saying you're judging us who got the Anthology box set?  That's why to each his own.  For me I bought the box set and considered it as a whole and not the individual movies.  Sayang yung box cover for the oollection.  True the last two flicks were not that great, but still I'm interested in the bonus discs of each.

I'm very happy for my purchase and don't feel it was a waste of money.  Thank you.   ::)

of the 4 titles, my favorite (and the only title I'm going to buy) is Batman Forever because of Jim Carrey's performance as the Riddler

I just opened my R3 Batman Anthology Set. Ingat na ingat ako sa pagbukas kasi di siya slipcase. You have to open either the top or bottom flap to get to the discs. The four movies are in Amaray casing, with the artworks mirroring the R1. May napansin akong printing error sa Batman Returns. The film credits on the rear cover are for Batman & Robin. The rest of the Batman Returns' rear cover is correct naman.

noticed the mistake din

i decided to open my set through the bottom part.

sayang lang at wala ng slip cases ang each movie.

Watched both Batman and Batman Returns yesterday. With regards to the video quality, Batman looks very dull compared to the transfer of Batman Returns. However, Batman Returns is still Tim Burton's most violent and sexually charged film. It should never have been marketed as a kid friendly film.

ako, ill base my decision on the actual packaging. R1 looks better. small price difference naman. i mean very far from The Polar Express gap standpoint.

nevertheless, im getting R1 and R3. R3 for opening. R1 for display.

Salamat sir hemi, baka sa R1 na nga ako mapunta...not that much of a difference sa price. And display-wise much better than the R3 box...IMHO. Thanks guys... ;)

 ;D I am tempted to buy the boxset but this one's bugging me..Do all 4 movies retain their CARDBOARD SLIPCASES (like those sold individually)  and neatly stuffed inside the box?

This question was answered somewhere else in the forum. the warner box sets like james dean and Batman Anthology do not retain their individual cardboard slipcases that you get when you buy the titles seperately.

My Anthology also has the misprinted rear label on "Batman Returns"  ???, erroneously reflecting the credits from "Batman & Robin".  Is this misprint affecting only the Anthology boxsets?  I  checked the individually sold "Batman Returns" SE, and the cardboard slipcase does NOT have the misprint.  But since it was sealed I could not check if the amaray inside also has the corrected rear label.  Could somebody please confirm this?  Thanks  ;)

BTW, the "Batman" of my Anthology set also says Region 1 on the rim, but played in my computer even when set to Region 3 with no problems.  ;)

I bought the individual releases. Although the slip case of "Batman Returns" has correct credits, the label inside on the Amaray case is also a misprint of the "Batman & Robin" credits. Weird!

Hopefully Warner will offer to replace our misprinted covers when (or if at all) corrected ones come out.  Thanks for the reply  ;)

Nice buy though at P1.8k from astro podium sale, guess we can't have our cake and eat it too  ;D

I'd still go for the R1 release...kasi meron nko...hehehe  ;D

I love the box, I could say mas maganda sa R3 release kasi yung R1 may top cover, R3 you will just slip the dvd's horizontally.

To those who got the Anthology recently, does the (presumably) new stocks still reflects the 'credits' error (Batman & Robin credits on Batman Returns DVD back cover)?

Oo nga. And for those unfortunate enough to buy it when it was first released (me including), I think Warner should at least provide us with the correct DVD cover.

I bought mine a couple of months ago and the credits are where they should be naman.

Warner contacted me yesterday to confirm that the label/cover error has been corrected. If you want yours replaced, you'll need to submit the defective one. No details yet on how and where this will be done but send me a PM with your name, e-mail, and contact number if you'd like to participate. Chances are you'll have to drop by the Warner office in Pasig.
