As far as the remastering, there are some very interesting threads on newly visible nuances and differences in the Batmobile from season to season and episode to episode over at the Batmobile site. I'm talking subtleties such as a change from slotted head to Phllips head screws on the front canopie...

I'd like to thank everyone for their posts. The remastering is unbelievable in some places. WB took the time to remaster these episodes, and it shows. The question is *what source* did they actually use to remaster these episodes? The pilot is from a different source, and isn't the print that's usua...

I’m posting in this thread, because there are a few things that need to be said. I’ve taken a look at the Season 1 set. I was going to post this as a separate thread, but there are a couple things that need to be said. This isn’t about personal taste This is about fact. WB got it wrong. There are so...

1. Where is the press release? Is there going to be another press release?

2. Will Warner Archive, or LA Batfan post the comparison video ?

3. Are those the only extras, bonus materials?

But is this what the director and producer intended ? The pilot is not supposed to be super dark and saturated, especially when Batman enters the night club. Yes, it's essentially what was originally intended. You may like the faded, washed-out syndication prints better, but they do not have greate...

Thanks for posting the Viewmaster image Andy. If there was a pristine copy available of the reel, it may look even better than this.

Had a look at the trailer again, and the remastering in some places, Wow.

Comments about the trailer : Pros : The remastering looks fabulous in some places. Wow. Cons : The trailer is too dark in some places, and the saturation of the colors i.e. Batman's emblem is dark yellow, almost orange, in the final frame when the dynamic duo shake hands. It's supposed to be a light...

This isn't directed any specific board member, but I'm going to say it : Hi Diddle Riddle.jpg There's no way I will buy a transfer that looks like that, with the dark murky look and colors. The costume yes, looks correct, but there are so many other things that don't look right. It's wrong. This is...

As pointed out on another "cut scenes" thread we had, there is a scene where Riddler and the gang are all going down into the manhole just as someone is walking past. The camera shot only shows the persons shoes, and doesn't notice the manhole being covered beneath his feet. This scene I ...

This image you are complaining about is not from work being done to prep the show for DVD. It was posted by Bob Furmanek on Home Theater Forum (post 752 http://www.hometheaterforum.com/topic/301743-1966-batman-dvd-coming-see-post-649/page-38). He later explained that it was taken from a 35mm print ...

Batsman you have nothing to worry about. The people working on this project already know what the Batman TV show means. They are also fully aware besides possibly The Wonder Years this is the most anticipated DVD/BluRay release for a series that any team will get their hands on. This means that if ...

I'm concerned because Hi Diddle Riddle and Smack in the Middle, are the pilot, and whoever restored the series for broadcast got it right. It has a pristine look and it looks great and has minor problems that can easily be corrected. Whoever worked on this transfer, got it right. I disagree. These ...

I had a look at one of my tapes, to see the quality of the pilot. This was an off the air recording from cable, not a bootleg. Surprisingly, it looked very good. The colors in the pilot, were great. Not HD, but for a standard definition copy the colors were very good. Just for fun, I wanted to post ...
