Holy box set, Batman! Warner Home Video has announced the caped crusader's four original big-screen adventures are headed to Blu-ray this March.

Dubbed 'Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology,' the five-disc set contains all four of the Batman films made from 1989-1997, including 'Batman,' 'Batman Returns,' 'Batman Forever' and 'Batman & Robin.'
