Episode 4: A New Hope
The Jedi Knights have been exterminated and the Empire rules the galaxy with an iron fist. A small group of Rebels have dared to fight back by stealing the secret plans to the Empire's mightiest woman, the Death Star battle station. The Emperor's most trusted servant, Darth Vader, must find the plans, and locate the hidden Rebel base. Princess Leia, a captive Rebel leader, sends out a distress signal that is intercepted by a simple farm boy, Luke Skywalker. Seizing his destiny, Luke takes up the challenge to recuse the princess and help the Rebellion overthrow the Empire, along with such unforgettable allies as the wise Obi-Wan Kenobi, the cocky Han Solo, the loyal Chewbacca, and the droids R2-D2 and C3PO.
Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back
It is a dark time for the Rebellion. After a devastating attack on their ice base on the frozen planet of Hoth, the Rebels are scattered by Imperial pursuit. Luke Skywalker seeks out the mysterious Jedi Master Yoda in the swamps of Dagobah, while Han Solo and Princess Leia outrun the Imperial fleet to the beautiful Cloud City of Bespin. In an attempt to convert Luke to the dark side, the evil Darth Vader lures young Skywalker into a trap. In the midst of a fierce lightsaber duel with the Sith Lord, Luke faces a terrible truth about the Skywalker legacy.
Episode 6: Return Of The Jedi
In the spectacular final chapter of the Star Wars saga, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia must travel to Tatooine to free Han Solo by infiltrating the wretched stronghold of Jabba the Hutt, the galaxy's most loathsome gangster. Reunited, the Rebels team up with tribes of Ewoks to combat the Imperial forces on the forest moon of Endor. Meanwhile the Emperor and Darth Vader conspire to turn Luke to the dark side, and young Skywalker is determined to rekindle the spirit of the Jedi within his father.
Collection of four action adventures featuring the DC Comics superhero.
In 'Batman' (1989) the streets of Gotham City are no longer safe for
criminals, who are being picked off by a masked vigilante in a rubber
suit - dubbed 'Batman' by the press. Reporter Alexander Knox (Robert
Wuhl) teams with photographer Vicki Vale (Kim Basinger) in an attempt
to discover Batman's true identity - an investigation which leads them
to the door of mysterious millionaire Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton).
Meanwhile, crime boss Carl Grissom (Jack Palance)'s attempt to rid
himself of untrustworthy henchman Jack Napier (Jack Nicholson) does not
go according to plan, and after emerging physically and mentally
disfigured from a vat of chemicals, Napier reinvents himself as the
psychotic Joker. In 'Batman Returns' (1992), 33 years after being
abandoned as a baby, Oswald Cobblepot (Danny DeVito) returns to Gotham
City, bent on revenge, as the Penguin. He begins a warped campaign to
become mayor of Gotham, helped by millionaire businessman Max Shreck
(Christopher Walken) and undertakes a mission to murder every firstborn
son in the city - a plan which will avenge his own beginnings.
Meanwhile, Batman (Keaton) emerges to stop him, but struggles with his
dual identity after becoming romantically involved with Shreck's former
secretary Selina Kyle (Michelle Pfeiffer), who takes up her own secret
identity as Catwoman to get revenge on Shreck. In 'Batman Forever'
(1995) former District Attorney Harvey 'Two-Face' Dent (Tommy Lee
Jones) is terrorising Gotham City when a new villain appears on the
scene - The Riddler (Jim Carrey). Together they plot to take over
Gotham and discover Batman (Val Kilmer)'s identity, using a device
which can probe the human mind.
Meanwhile, the caped crusader is joined in his fight by new sidekick
Robin (Chris O'Donnell), whose trapeze-artist family have recently been
slain by Two-Face. Finally, in 'Batman and Robin' (1997) Batman (George
Clooney) and Robin (O'Donnell) have to stop the vengeful Mr Freeze
(Arnold Schwarzenegger) from taking over Gotham City. To make matters
worse, the venomous Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) decides to join forces
with Freeze.
Luckily for the caped crusader and his rebellious ward, they team up
with new partner Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone).
