Christopher Nolan: Director's Collection (Memento / Insomnia / Batman Begins / The Dark Knight / Inception) [Blu-ray]



An Incredible Collection Of Blu-Ray Releases: A Couple New Collectibles, But Repackaged Movies
The Christopher Nolan Director's Collection is one of those fabulous Blu-ray sets that very few people will actually need. Nolan is a genius to be sure, but it's hard to imagine that most DVD collectors don't already have one or more of these terrific films. All of the Blu-ray releases in this set are just repackaged versions of what has been available previously, there is NO new actual disc content. Due to licensing reasons, the collection does NOT include Nolan's first film "Following" (rumored to be a potential Criterion release) or "The Prestige." This is still an awesome group of five films, all of which look great in Blu-ray. If you don't own them, this comes with the highest recommendation. As most are familiar with the movies themselves, I will limit my comments to what is included in this item's contents.

In addition to movies, the set has the following exclusive content: 10 Collectible Photo Cards, 40 Page Photo Book and an (up to) $8.00 Movie Cash Credit to...

If you don't own these now is a perfect opportunity
Christopher Nolan is, by far, the greatest director of all time in my opinion. I love all of his movies but because my brother is moving out and taking all of these with him I was looking for a chance to buy them for myself. This box set is a great start to get back all my treasured Nolan films. But let's give a quick rundown.

Memento- My favorite movie of all time. Most unique directing ever. 10/10
Inception- 2nd favorite movie of all time. One of the best concepts of all time. 9.5/10
Batman Begins- Great movie. Love Cillian Murphy as scarecrow. Very well done. 8/10
The Dark Knight- Best Batman flick ever. Joker is fantastic and so is the rest of the movie. 9/10
Insomnia- Not written by Nolan, just directed, and it shows. But who doesn't love Robin Williams as a killer? 7.5/10

All this for $25? I'm in. The only gripe about this box set is no Prestige! I would have much rather of had that then Insomnia. Also need to get Following and Dark...
