Can't wait for the deluge of '66 product!
Looks like WB will have some dvd news to announce at the con...
Dare we actually HOPE???????????????????
I feel like we're whipping ourselves into a frenzy! Is this a whipping frenzy? Does anyone else here feel whipped, and frenzied?
....and if not, do you want to?
DC and WB should just say "**** it. Next year's Batman's 75th anniversary, and, right now, we're at Comic-Con. Let's just announce this **** and not worry about the consequences. After all, that's what we pay our lawyers for, is it? Tell Marty that there's a big fat bonus in it for him if he could get the estates to agree to release the cameos to us."
What's really amusing to me about the rights issues between the two studio is that you'd think it was something huge like Star Wars/Disney or Harry Potter.
Granted, Batman anything is obviously worth a lot of money, but '66 TV Batman specifically has to be relative chump change in comparison to the bigger franchises out there. It's worth a great deal of money, but still, I'd bet regular comics Batman is worth more these days by some fair margin. They should just go 50/50 and call it a day.
Batman '66 is a huge cash cow that hasn't been tapped. Every boomer collector will be on this in a way you whipper snappers can't imagine. As a matter of fact, I'm way more excited for the HT '66 Batmobile than I am for any of the Burton-era stuff.
