I've attached some pictures of the 2nd release. It's awesome, would be better with the gloss finish and two discs, but it doesn't have the blu-banner. I prefer it to the FS (have owned both) but I guess it's all down to personal taste. It is definetely better than the BB release though that's for sure.

Nope, not the same, the Amazon.ca one does have inside art. The differences are that the FS has two discs compared to one with the Amazon.ca version. It also has a blu-banner and a gloss finish whereas the Amazon.ca version is banner free and matte. In my opinion, the Amazon one is better.

Have I missed a release here?

I don't see it under the search in the collection manager. Or is it the 2010 Canadian release?

Actually, according to the FS website it states that this new release will have not two but three discs.

Thanks guys for the quick response, sounds like I got the better of the two then? Not keen on the blue banner and do prefer matt, just shame about the second disc as I do like my extras! Can't understand why in the Futureshop exclusive would be inferior though in that sense?

The first FS version has two discs, I have owned it. I'm not sure about any of the details of the upcoming one, but i've been referring to the original release in my posts.

Ah I got you, my bad. I was referring to the new one coming out tomorrow.

Did anyone pick one of these up today?

There were none at the FS I went to this morning.

They were some in the couple of stores I went to, they only received 5 or 6 copies each.

You can see it here:

No bluray banner, that's pretty much the only difference.

No Batman Begins in stores tho but I've received it this morning as well.

My FS had none.

So they do have inner art or have you not opened them yet?

 

[biscuitnoir]

I don't know, I don't open my steels, you guys know that

And I believe the reason the stores had none is because on the box it says "Do not display before 07/17/12". Someone made a mistake, either the distributor, or Future Shop's website.

The Batman Begins SB has no inside art. So it is safe to assume this won't either. These seem to be left overs from the BB USA wave.

I recently saw batman begin and the dark knight steelbook in stock for amazon.ca
i havnt been keeping up with the updates.. they seem to be the old art (one with batpod cover), does that one still have inside art?

If you're talking about buying from Amazon.ca, well then, it should be the 2nd release and YEAH, they had inside art.

Batman Begins
The Dark Knight

Can anyone help by letting me know which is the best version of TDK with the bike artwork to get or are they all the same?

 

[tono06]

no! the original release from FS is the best IMO, the quality is really awesome and it is glossyyyyy, unfortunately for some it has the blu banner printed but i love it any way....

There's the Future Shop Exclusive 1st edition (GLOSS, but with the blue banner) and then the regular Warner release (Mate, but without the blue banner):

And remember that there's also the UK release with the flame logo... or the white version from Asia:
