Details on 'Dark Knight Rises' Blu-Ray and 'Dark Knight Trilogy' Boxset

It’s only fitting one of the biggest movies of the year should warrant a jam-packed Blu-Ray and DVD release. The Dark Knight Rises, the final chapter in Christopher Nolan’s epic, genre-defining Batman trilogy, will be released on home video December 4th. Something tells me a lot of excited fanboys and fangirls will be asking Santa for this one.

Today, Warner Bros. announced the list of special features on The Dark Knight Rises Blu-Ray. According to Ropes of Silicon, they are:

  • The Batmobile Documentary
  • “Ending the Knight” Documentary
  • Production
  • The Prologue: High Altitude Hijacking
  • Beneath Gotham
  • Return to the Batcave
  • Batman vs Bane
  • The Bat
  • Armory Accepted
  • Gameday Destruction
  • Demolishing a City Street
  • The Pit
  • The Chant
  • The War on Wall Street
  • Race to the Reactor
  • The Journey of Bruce Wayne
  • Gotham’s Reckoning
  • Characters
  • A Girl’s Gotta Eat
  • Shadows and Light in Large Format
  • Reflections
  • The End of A Legend
  • Trailers
  • Art Gallery

Check out the chapter listings for that documentary! Looks like Warner Bros. hasn’t missed a single aspect of filmmaking–something diehard Batman fans will definitely appreciate.

For the truly dedicated, Warner Bros. will also be releasing all three Nolan Batman films in a massive collector’s edition boxset. The Dark Knight Trilogy, also rolling out December 4th, includes Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises on Blu-Ray: more than seven and a half glorious hours of Batman. No doubt this giftset will fly off the shelves, so you’ll want to start saving your pennies now.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
