TDKR Flash Drive Makes Accessing Your Data Painful for Batman

Posted on by

Dark Knight Rises USB

Batman’s got the brains, the brawn, and the money, so it’s no wonder that he rose to the top of the superhero food chain without actually having any superpowers. Regardless of how you feel for Bruce Wayne and his ethics, you can’t really deny that this Dark Knight Rises Batman flash drive is off the wall and pretty awesome, in more ways than one.

First of all, it doesn’t really look like a flash drive. It looks like a miniature bust of Batman in all his splendor–but take off his head (yes, you have to decapitate Batman every time you access your data) and you’ve got your flash drive right there. Plug the dock into your computer and the bat logo on Batman’s chest lights up. Plug his head in and Batman’s eyes will glow a cool blue. Sounds pretty creepy, but it look’s extremely cool.

This TDKR Batman flash drive is an officially licensed product, which probably explains its hefty price tag of $86.99.

The Dark Knight Rises Bluray officially set for December 4th, limited edition Bat cowl revealed

After false starting a couple of weeks ago, the Blu-ray trailer for The Dark Knight Rises is back, and Entertainment Weekly has heard from Warner Bros. that December 4th is the official release date. Also on display from EW is this limited edition Bat Cowl packaging which will be available at launch. While there's not a full spec list, extras will include a Batmobile-focused documentary and more than a dozen featurettes about going behind the scenes of the movie with Christopher Nolan and his team. We expect to see more details soon, for now just check out the trailer embedded after the break.

Update: The press release with all the details and an image of the Blu-ray box art are out, posted by TheHDRoom. While it's not all listed on Amazon yet where the prices will likely be lower, the standard Blu-ray edition has an MSRP of $35.99, while the Bat Cowl Limited Edition's tag is $39.99. Additionally, fans can nab the whole trilogy in the The Dark Knight Trilogy Limited Edition Giftset which has a price of $52.99, although they might want to wait until 2013 when The Dark Knight Trilogy Ultimate Collector's Edition will arrive. Got all that? Check after the break for the list of extras plus the box art for both versions due this year.

Update 2: Check out the full press release after the break, including word about a The Dark Knight Rises app on iOS as well as Android for newer Samsung Galaxy devices. Already out on iOS as the Gotham City's most wanted app, it will add more photo modification and interactive features, and when the disc is released it will become a second screen app for use during the movie.

Sky bags exclusive rights Warner Bros. movie catalog, makes LoveFilm and others wait

Sky beats LoveFilm, bags exclusive rights to Warner Bros movie catalogue

Sky has bested its broadcast and video-on-demand rivals by signing a deal with Warner Bros. for exclusive rights to its films in the UK and Ireland. Once the six-month cinema window has elapsed, each new flick (including Man of Steel and The Dark Knight Rises) will remain Murdoch-only for a full year before arriving on LoveFilm and its kind. Meanwhile, back-catalog titles like The Lord of the Rings and The Matrix will remain locked in the partnership's walled garden for an undisclosed period of time. Good news if you're a Sky customer, we suppose, and not if you're not.

The Dark Knight Rises Blu-ray trailer appears, confirms December 3rd release date

The Dark Knight Rises Bluray trailer appears, confirms December 3rd release date

Good for over $1 billion at the box office, Christopher Nolan's third Batman movie is probably this year's most anticipated home video release (The Avengers next week may have something to say about that) and now Warner Bros. has given us a trailer for The Dark Knight Rises on Blu-ray. Previous movies in the series have always delivered on Blu-ray, as well as his other recent hit, Inception. Unfortunately the video maxes out at 480p, but we don't need any additional resolution to see the release date listed for both disc and digital download is December 3rd. Rumors have flown about different releases dates and possible extras like a director's cut, but recently sources have indicated no such extended offering is in the works. Whether you think the flick was long enough (or even too long), you can press play to check out the clip embedded after the break...and clear the first Monday in December on your calendar for a trilogy viewing marathon.

The Batarang Twin-Blade Folding Knife Probably Won’t Get Bruce Wayne’s Seal of Approval

Posted on by

Batarang

Everybody loves Batman. I mean, who doesn’t? Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy may have wrapped up last month, but people are still talking about how the movie ended and the future of the franchise, even until now.

Given its huge success, you can expect Batman-inspired stuff to crop up from now until they decide to reboot the entire thing. Stuff like the Batarang. It’s a twin-blade folding knife that features a bat handle. Unfold the blades and you’ve got a knife that will probably cut your hand while you try to use it for something else. In essence, the design looks awesome. When outstretched, the blades look like the bat’s wings, which was probably what they intended to do. However, it makes using the knife a wee bit more complicated.

Of course, you can just use unfold one blade at a time and use it like you would a normal knife. But still. The Batarang looks dangerously silly and will probably cut the palms of those who don’t really know how to use it.

The price for the Batarang ranges from $8.50 to $13, depending on the color.

While the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight trilogy is mostly his and his brother’s script work, they both draw a lot from the source material, the comic books from over the years, especially the darker, grittier ones. Maybe that’s why the Dark Knight trilogy have been going so good.
