The Dark Knight to get big Oscar push
Warner is getting serious, so serious, about its The Dark Knight Oscar campaign. Reuters is reporting that the house of Bat will re-release the picture in IMAX theaters and, potentially, conventional movie houses come January. That’s in the heart of Oscar campaign season, with nominations due in mid-January, with a late-January nomination announcement.
What this means is that Warner is confident that The Dark Knight will already get attention from major precursors (Golden Globes, BFCA, LA & NY Film Critics, etc.), which announce nominations and winners in December.
Now the only question is, when is Warner going to release the Bat on DVD? Does the January release mean the earliest we can expect a disc set will be in our Easter baskets? Stay tuned.
