Blu-ray movie releases for the week of June 29th

by Alan Tsang { Jun 29th 2008 at 8:10PM }

The picture above is to make sure everyone knows a certain Batman: The Movie released this week is the 1966 production with Adam West, and NOT the 1989 Burton production. This is the campy and hilarious comedy that was never meant to be taken seriously, so make sure you know what you are buying. With that being said, here are the rest of this week's Blu-ray releases:

There's quite a few award winners here in the mix; Gangs of New York has Oscar winner Martin Scorsese pairing up with a post-Titanic Leonardo DiCaprio and the Daniel Day-Lewis, In the Line of Fire stars Clint Eastwood in a disturbingly effective thriller and Mad Men is a series that has rack up a few Golden Globes. If you are into Korn (pre-religious conversion and before Head left) or John Mayer, their live concerts on Blu-ray are natural must-haves.

What to avoid at all costs this week: Tyler Perry's Meet The Browns, Vantage Point

So why are blu-ray movies posted weekly for the ps3? Sure it plays blu-ray movies, but that doesnt make it ps3 related. It also plays dvd's, maybe ps3fanboy should start posting dvd releases too =P

is it just me or does it look like the reflection on that ladys shirt make it look like robin is giving the middle finger.

That's Lee Meriweteher, who, as you vidya gamin nerds may know, is now known for her voice as Big Mama in MGS4. And thats not robin: thats Frank Gorshin as the riddler.

Consider this purchased; I have bought this on VHS, DVD and even UMD. More features and HD? Is as good as bought!

Kattleox you beat me to it lol, sad that she is the only one left of the 4 pictured that is still alive. Thought her performance in MGS4 was pretty good as well.

Add me to the list of buying Batman, all we need now is for Fox and Warner to sort themselves out and get the series released.
