The Dark Knight Is Coming To DVD On December 9th



 

What is sure to be on every geek's christmas list, the Dark Knight on DVD, has finally been given a release date.  That date is December 9th.

 

As should be expected by now, the film is coming out in multiple versions.  A single DVD package with nothing cool on it, a 2-Disc DVD set with a bunch of bonus features, a Blu-ray version with even more bonus features, and finally...a super duper deluxe version that comes with funky packaging and a toy of the Bat-pod.

 

Here's a look at the special features on the Blu-ray version:

 

Disc One:

  • Gotham Uncovered: Creation of a scene.  Director Chris Nolan and creative collaborators unmask the incredible detail and planning behind the film, including stunt staging, filming in IMAX, the new Bat-suit and Bat-pod and more!


 

Disc Two:

  • Batman Tech - The incredible gadgets and tools (in High-Def)

  • Batman Unmasked: The psychology of the Dark Knight - Delve into the psyche of Bruce Wayne and the world of Batman through real-world psychotherapy (in High-Def)

  • Gotham Tonight:  6 Episodes of Gotham Cable's premier news program.

  • The Galleries:  The Joker cards, concept art, poster art, production stills, trailers & TV spots


 

I'm really say that the Batman Unmasked feature is only available on the Blu-ray version of the player.  I don't own a Blu-ray player, and that was the one feature I was really looking forward to seeing. 

 

And now I'm sad.  Damn you Warner Brothers.  Thanks for dashing my hopes.

 

Bastards!
