Getting eight feature-length telefilms with roughly two hours of bonus material for each one ... that's like $12.50 per episode at retail. But if that's still too expensive:

1) Like Ronnie Mervis the diamond importer says, "Nobody pays retail, why should you." Amazon's opening week on Vol. 1 was 48% off the MSRP.

2) If that's still too much, rent it. How many times will you really watch them anyway? Enough to justify the cost of purchasing the set? Or will you fare better by renting? Especially from flat-rate Netflix?

But she didn't descend into mindless screaming like Oscar Winner Kim Basinger, come on like a drunken prom date like Oscar Winner Nicole Kidman or chew all the scenery as a villainess like Oscar Nominee Uma Thurman. And we won't even touch Oscar Winner/Razzie Winner Halle Berry's non-Batman Batman film. No, Katie Holmes didn't deserve the Razzie nomination for her performance. Not by a long shot.

I will say that of all of Batman's leading ladies, the only one who truly knocked it out of the park was Michelle Pfeiffer. Her whole story line and her performance was perfect. It's a damn shame she had to share the screen with that wretched interpretation of the Penguin.

There is a fan-edit of Batman Forever called the "Red Book Edition" that is really good. It makes the film much more in line with the Burtonverse.

Still, I've abandoned that film series. Between Batman's homicidal approach, Vicky Vale's screaming, and The Penguin's ... whatever ... I was never head-over-heels for it. I respect the films for what they are, but BB hit every note perfectly. I didn't even mind Katie Holmes. It was the first thing I'd bothered to see her in and had blinders on to her whole Tom Cruise soap opera until afterward, so I was offered a wee bit of objectivity as far as she was concerned.

Though I still think Rachel McAdams would have been the best person for the role the first time and for the recast.

NO, the actual movie has not been change you Star Wars elitest dipshite. I swear, you Star Wars fanboys complain far too fucking much for your own good.

Actually the movie has been changed in other ways. But since ignorance is bliss and your conversation has brought so much to the discussion, let me simply respond by saying "Spelling: -5."

I was going to point that out. I mean, how many of you Yanky boys actually knew what Guy Fawkes was before that film came out? None I bet.
No doubt it'll be turned into something completely different now, be celebrated on a different day and will have nothing to do with Guy Fawkes.


Can'tcha just hear Guy Fawkes saying: "I started the first fires in this goddamn city. Before I knew it, every charlatan and shitheel was imitating me. You know what they got now? Guy Fawkes Night greeting cards. Isn't that precious? The idea has become the institution, boys. Time to move on. I want you to set a fire so goddamn big, the gods will notice us again, that's what I'm saying. I want all you boys to look me straight in the eye one more time and say: ARE WE HAVING FUN OR WHAT??!!"

Thing is, they've taken Michael Myers and turned him from some faceless, mindless demon into a product of a tortured past. What made the original so damn scary is that he was a normal looking kid from a normal looking family who butchered his sister for no reason. He was pure evil, and that was enough to scare the shit out of us. We didn't even know what the adult looked like. Instead of some hairy freak, he was faceless. Fear of the unknown. The original movie scares the piss out of me. This new crap has no interest with me precisely because we've taken something Hitchcockian and turned it into more torture porn.
