WB to Re-Release The Dark Knight Jan. 23

Warner Bros. Pictures is bringing The Dark Knight back for a return engagement in theaters and IMAX on January 23, 2009, giving audiences one more chance to see the film on the big screen. The film will re-open nationwide, it was announced today by Dan Fellman, Warner Bros. Pictures President of Domestic Distribution.

In making the announcement, Fellman stated, "'The Dark Knight' is a crowning achievement in every sense of the word. We wanted to provide one more opportunity for moviegoers to experience it on the big screen as it was meant to be seen."

One of the most celebrated and successful films of this or any year, The Dark Knight has been hailed by both critics and audiences since its original release last July. The film garnered widespread acclaim for its artistic and technical achievements, including the work of its outstanding cast and its director, Oscar?-nominated filmmaker Christopher Nolan (Memento).

Led by Christian Bale, reprising his role from Batman Begins, and Academy Award? nominee Heath Ledger (Brokeback Mountain), the ensemble cast also includes Academy Award? winner Michael Caine (The Cider House Rules), Gary Oldman (the "Harry Potter" films), Aaron Eckhart (Thank You for Smoking), Maggie Gyllenhaal (Stranger Than Fiction), and Academy Award? winner Morgan Freeman (Million Dollar Baby).

In addition, critics and moviegoers alike applauded Nolan's revolutionary use of IMAX cameras to film some of the most challenging action sequences ever created?a first for a major feature film.

Nolan directed The Dark Knight from a screenplay written by Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan, story by Christopher Nolan & David S. Goyer. Charles Roven, Emma Thomas and Christopher Nolan produced the film, with Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan, Kevin De La Noy and Thomas Tull serving as executive producers.

Collaborating with Nolan behind the scenes were two-time Oscar?-nominated director of photography Wally Pfister (The Prestige, Batman Begins), Oscar?-nominated production designer Nathan Crowley (The Prestige), Oscar?-nominated editor Lee Smith (Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World) and Oscar?-winning costume designer Lindy Hemming (Topsy-Turvy). The music is by Oscar? winner and multiple Oscar? nominee Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, Gladiator) and seven-time Oscar? nominee James Newton Howard (Michael Clayton, The Fugitive), who previously collaborated on the score for Batman Begins.

Originally released on July 18, 2008, The Dark Knight broke virtually every possible box office record to become the top-grossing film of 2008 and the second-highest grossing movie (domestically) of all time.

Exactly, I already watched the movie once in theater. I would rather enjoy it in 1080p at home then go to theater again. (atleast I can pause the movie if I had to take a dump).

its all about the IMAX! I did see this when it first came out in IMAX, its not viewing a movie its like feeling it. I saw 300 twice in IMAX too :shiftyninja:

Anyone notice he killed Lau without him screaming? He was sitting on top of the money and then the joker set it on fire and then we never see him again.

Well I think they wanted to keep it PG... The Joker got hit so much yet didn't even bleed.

I saw both Batman Begins and the Dark Knight yesterday. Not very overly impressed with either. Dark Knight was very good, but not excellent like everyone says. I also watched Bourne Identity yesterday, and enjoyed that more than the Dark Knight or Batman Begins.

Oh come on, the Bourne series is terrible compared to Batman... and I'm not saying the Batman movies are amazing either. :p

      WTF! Nah, not this one. If you were back then using computers in the 90s or you had a clue, you'd know this was huge and was seen and overused absolutely everywhere and you'd take this article as no more than a retrospective story. That's all it is.

      these "editors" get paid by the amount of articles and not the quality of content; hence why we get this random stuff from the same "editor" time and time again.

      256 times the quality of an audio cd? I think audio cd's sound good so even twice as good as that would be something.

      It’s not about the NOx. It’s about the electrical field.
