Rjoyadet Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 My aunt once taped around three hours of the series and gave it to me as a birthday present. I was very happy with it. I may give the dvds when her birthday comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Evil Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I wish this was around 5 years ago, my godson would have loved it. He really loved the Adam West movie and the Nolan films were just too dark for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareth Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 So I read somewhere that a few of the cameos, The Green Hornet and such, have been cut from the DVD release. Makes me a little sad. But otherwise . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 That sucks, but it makes sense. Licensing all those cameos (which don't add much, tbh) is expensive. And the Green Hornet rights don't belong to Warner Bros, so it doesn't surprise me that those two episodes might be missing. That would suck hard, but I do get it.

KnightWing Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Those Green Hornet episodes were the reason I suddenly became the most knowledgeable person in the room when the trailers for Seth Rogen's movie came out. "Who's Green Hornet? Oh, well, only true comic book fans know who he is. He met Batman once. It was awesome." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareth Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 There were also a few window cameos with people like Ted Cassidy as Lurch from The Addams Family. I'm guessing these clips will be cut from their episodes unless there was some sort of deal regarding all the cameos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 After watching them the other night, most of them should still be alright. The important thing about most is that they're credited as themselves, not as a character. Most are just a random actor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 A very interesting article on how the show was able to make it to DVD. About as complete a retelling as we're ever going to get since I doubt Warners and Fox will ever discuss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
