yes it's still playing in theaters all over the world, BUT according to joblo.com, the buzz on the street is that december 9 is the day the dark knight comes to blue ray and dvd. although i cannot locate the original thread, joblo has updated the news with this piece of drool inducing news:


EXCL: The TDK DVDs?     Aug. 14, 2008      
   
Source: JoBlo.com    by: Mike Sampson

Details are a little sketchy on what the DARK KNIGHT DVDs are going to include but seeing as how it's poised to become a) the second biggest movie of all-time and b) the biggest movie released in the DVD era, we knew you'd expect a lot of different versions to be available. While we still don't have a lot of the specs on what these DVDs will contain, we are starting to get some word on what kinds of versions will be available. A scooper named "Dave" sent in some images that we've been able to confirm as legit. They would confirm a 2-disc DVD, a Blu-ray, a steelbook 2-disc DVD special edition, a Batpod collector's DVD and a Batman mask collector's DVD (basically the 2-disc DVD shrink-wrapped with a Batman mask).

In trying to track down more info on these DVDs, I've heard two conflicting release dates - December 2nd and December 9th. Either way THE DARK KNIGHT is poised for some huge sales this holiday season. I've already got my eyes on that steelbook...

If anyone has any further details on these DVDs, please feel free to drop a line. The Batpod image is watermarked with a Czech website but I can't seem to find anything TDK on their site.

so who's interested in getting a copy???? ;D ;D

Looks like Blu is a steel?  :o  Collectors will be very busy in December double-triple dipping in TDK, with diff covers of Bats, Joker, and Two-Face, lenticular cover (like the poster), giftsets, steelbook... endless possibilities for our limited Christmas Bonus  ;D

The Batpod set I think is a German release, saw it at SideshowCollectors.com. Have my eye on the steelbook and the Batpod set. If released locally, these sets will sell out for sure. ;D

i'm sure WHV will make a killing with this...what I'm worried about is the price.

Yup.  It could possibly reach at least 1k for the steelbook and 1k+ for the batpod.  Reminds me I saw the DVD of Fool's Gold.  Looks like a P425 title to me instead of the P550 price tag.

The Dark Knight (12/9)
« Reply #18 on: Aug 28, 2008 at 07:53 AM »
Don't you just love reliable industry sources? Us too. Ours have just checked in with more new DVD and Blu-ray street dates, this time for a trio of MUCH anticipated Warner titles. Here's what to expect in November and December...

11/11 - Star Wars: Clone Wars
12/2 - Get Smart
12/9 - The Dark Knight

Word is, there will be FOUR different versions of The Dark Knight, including single-disc and 2-disc DVDs, a 3-disc Blu-ray and some kind of Blu-ray limited edition packaged with cool swag.

what im curious at now is will the local r3 street date release of 12/9 mirror that of the r1 editions?  or do we wait two to three weeks to get our bat fix?

It's a Warner title, so historically it'll be most probably be a SAME-DAY release or actually even 1-2 weeks before US street date. Batman Begins R1 and R3 were both released on October 18, 2005.

No R1 steel?  :-\

Not really impressed with the Batpod Giftset, especially with its disc case. But maybe it will look nice with the UK BD Steel  ;D
