Wondering if BB, CC or Frys will run some $20 deals. Also might be a good time to get a new movie poster or two. Some of those Ledger posters are just awesome!

Might be time to replace Harry Potter or Spiderman....lol

This should have been what they went with. Especially since the back of the slipcover is "defaced" by the Joker in the one they went with.

This might be the one title that I might pull a "xage" and get more than one copy of it. I would be all over a steelbook version and the LE with batpod as well.

We always get steelbooks, don't we? I've never heard of a U.S. only steelbook of a movie when Future Shop here carries them.

Its been posted around that FYE was offering 3 designs - Batman, Joker, Harvey Dent. These were supposed to be available for both DVD and Blu-ray.

I just called FYE and I was told - NO steelbooks for Blu-ray, and only one design for DVD.

Whoa, there, chief. My username is derived from Batman, but I'd be reluctant to make such a strong statement.

Thought this thread was for discussions of the different releases (pending or confirmed) of "Dark Knight" not film discussion. That was a really random comment BTW.

How I wish the artwork for Dark Knight ends up being the art RocShemp posted. So good.

Is Amazon not going to sell the Limited Edition Batpod version on Blu-Ray? Just seems odd that they don't have it up for pre-order yet. Does anyone?

I came on here to ask the exact same question. The site I do all of my shopping from (cduniverse.com) had it up for pre-order initially, but now it is gone. Not only that, but I failed to find a listing on Amazon or DVDempire.

A guy on HDD posted the following:

i see that my distributor has a Dark Knight Limited Edition with msrp of $64.99. No info yet, but i'm extremely curious as to what it is. Here's the UPC if someone with connections might be able to get more info: UPC#883929034635

Could be the Batpod maybe??? Its a US distributor.

On the same release day, this is coming out:

http://www.amazon.com/Knight-Origina...4580784&sr=1-4

The Dark Knight 2-disc Special Edition CD soundtrack.

Expanded score?

Doubt it, since the music in the film didn't sound as though it would really fill 2 CDs unless there are a lot of alternates or something.

Special behind-the-scenes of the music? The same album packaged with the first film's soundtrack?

No idea, because there's no details.

Oh WB is going to milk Dark Knight like nobody's business. I wouldn't doubt another "special edition" Blu-ray for TDK to come around this time next year.

I'm still waiting for the Harry Potter films with audio commentaries, which at one point Warner's mentioned they'd release - I'm sure the uber-box set with everything (and the kitchen sink) will come out when the last film is released onto home video.

Maybe YOUR screen, but if you have a scope screen (2.40:1), this is going to suck.

Do you only watch films in that AR and not in 1.78:1 or 1.85:1?
