It's summer blockbuster season and, since all summer blockbusters these days seem to be based on past movies and TV shows, that means it's also a big season for DVD releases.
The Hollywood Reporter provides a rundown of things we can expect:
"Batman Begins" yields the release of Volume 3 of "Batman -- The Animated Series" and the TV movie "Return to the Batcave," a look back at the Adam West-Burt Ward series. Notably, though, Universal (which owns the rights) has yet again blown an opportunity to release the 1960s Batman series on home video. They didn't do it on tape back when the Tim Burton flick came out, and they couldn't get it together for this new movie either.
As a tie-in to the upcoming Steven Spielberg adaptation, a couple of DVD documentaries focus on the hysteria provoked by the "War of the Worlds."
The original, Japanese version of "Dark Water" is coming out June 21, dovetailing with the release of the Jennifer Connelly version.
And the complete 1990s "Fantastic Four" cartoon is coming out July 5, to tie-in with the release of the quartet's new live-action feature, which opens the same day.
