Basically the old Batman Begins double-disc edition DVD repackaged with a bunch of “collectibles” and publicity material for the Dark Knight movie along with a $7.50 discount voucher to see this movie at a participating cinema in the States. Batman Begins is still fantastic and it is a good idea to check it out again before going to see The Dark Knight. However, it is doubtful whether all the newly bundled “extras” actually warrants the price increase over a normal Batman Begins edition.
