just in case any other budget-minded people like myself was waiting for the price to come down

About the Movie

About the Movie


Jack Nicholson is the Joker, who emerged from a horrible accident as a maniacal criminal. Michael Keaton is the Caped Crusader, who emerged from a childhood trauma to become a masked crimefighter. Kim Basinger is Vicki Vale, the talented photojournalist desired by both men. And Batman is the movie, the all-out spectacular directed by Tim Burton, set to songs by Prince and a music score by Danny Elfman, and an Academy Award winner for Best Art Direction/Set Decoration (Anton Furst and Peter Young).

Sounds like a great deal, though I wish they'd package anything but Purple Rain...Who doesn't own it at this point? Throw in "SOTT" (believe it or not, I don't have it), or "The Black Album."

i felt the same way at first--why buy PR AGAIN with no new added scenes...but i tell you...the companion disc 2 is loaded with good stuff. the 16 minute version of IWD4U/BIAS...eddie and charlie murphy at the mtv premiere party...and that horrific Sex Shooter video, which set a new low for bad videos

Wow! what a bargain! Have them both but will buy again as back-up copies!

Well I'm gonna have to run over there and see if MY wal mart has it!

assuming that all walmarts are basically the same...they should be in large nice display right near the dvd section in the main aisle (but not in with the dvd's)..,the movies i remember being the display:

purple rain
batman
batman begins
batman returns
batman and robin
se7ven
malcolm x

there may have been a few others, but they were all 2-disc sets for $9.72 (the se7ven and malcolm x packages looked outstanding--these aren't some cheap knock off dvd's)
