    I was thinking of getting the best buy exclusive. I was wondering how long the Dark Knight Reborn documentary will be. Like feature length? Does anyone know?

    ^^The Dark Knight Reborn doc is sadly only 35mins long according to Best buy.com I will still be getting the steel book just to go along with the other 2 steel books.

    But im hoping that the deluxe trilogy next fall will have new transfers of TDK. and more bonus features.

    If anything, The Dark Knight would've been the one out of this series to be nominated with a possible chance to win any Oscar.

    TDKR will be lucky to get a score or possible special effects nod.

    Eh. I think Nolan has one in him, but not yet. The year everyone was going crazy thinking Inception was going was going to win, I was rooting for Social Network.

    I think there's going to be a more comprehensive documentary covering the three films in next year's set. Personally, I'm holding off until that comes out to get a release of this film.

    Blu-ray & Bonus features review:

    http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-Da.../21212/#Review

    I just finished watching the Blu ray that leaked and the back and forth from 2.40:1 to 1.77(IMAX) footage looks just as bad as on TDK.

    I dont understand why you dont notice the difference in aspect in the theater...

    I noticed it... Then I got used to it and just admired the scenes any time they showed up.

    Man, I sure noticed it. It wasn't bad in the non-IMAX screening (still noticeable) but when I saw it in the actual IMAX theater the difference was jarring.

    Yeah I saw a legit IMAX screening in Chicago at Navy Pier and the 35mm stuff looked TERRIBLE. But the IMAX footage was so beautiful that I didn't really care.

    What about it looks bad to you guys? I watched the blu-ray Wednesday night and I thought the whole thing looked fantastic. I noticed the jump to the full screen scenes but I didn't think it was jarring or anything. It never bothered me in The Dark Knight either.

    Nolan's movies are quite too flawed to receive an oscar for best film or script, imho. They're enjoyable movies/blockbusters that sell you an image of being smart or intelligent, but if you start thinking about certain elements of their stories, everything falls apart. Even TDK, that everyone loves so much, is flawed at its core, takes itself too seriously ("why so serious...?" heh) and fails spectaculary at trying to comment on political issues (like terrorism or the all seeing eye stuff). It's a well done, very enjoyable action-movie, but that's all it is (no shame in this). The same goes for Nolan's other movies, of which TDKR must be his weakest to date. The story is just so bloated and flawed, it's ridiculous.

    ^^^ TDK isn't trying to get at terrorism/gov't control so much as morality and chaos, in my opinion. That is where I think it excels. Same for TDKR: rather than the veiled 1% comparisons, I feel the topic of sacrifice shines through perfectly.

    EDIT: my faves

    If anyone in this movie deserves an award, it's Micheal Caine.

    Now when I read your posts all I can do is read them as though Riker is bellowing them at me.

    Anyway, yeah, that fight sequence is brilliant, especially the complete lack of music, which just emphasises the cat-and-mouse game Bane is playing. Similarly, the chilling "Joker's theme" emphasises in the same way the game the Joker was playing with Batman in the interrogation scene in TDK. Two completely different scenes, but both working to show that the villain completely has the upper hand!
