Ditto. It should be manditory all DVDs with tons of extra have an index feature.

I bought the regular edition, and used the extra money saved towards Land of the Dead. I'm more careful now about special editions. I very rarely actually watch the extra stuff, so buying SE's all the time in a way was throwing money away. I used to buy the SE by default. Now I look more carefully and see if the extras interest me enough. In Batman's case the regular edition was enough.

The only reason I got the Deluxe edition was because I got an offer for it at the price of the widescreen edition off Amazon.com. :)

same here... I had to buy another item so I can get the free shipping. The funny thing was they sent me only the BB DVD. Where the heck are my Serenity and BSG books? Damn Amazon. :p

Picked it up today...was looking for the regular edition but...none anywhere so I wound up with the special for $3 more. The comic is nothing to me, as I'm not a comic person and I only want the specials of films I really want. Oh well.

Yes, but did you get all of the Easter Eggs in the disc? And was it necessary to quote my entire post?

Batman Hits Australia for Villains?

The sequel to Batman Begins could become an Australian affair now that Hugo Weaving and Hugh Jackman are in the running to play villains. The two Aussie movie stars are the latest names linked to play The Joker and Harvey 'Two Face' Dent in the upcoming superhero adventure, according to moviehole.net. Producers are yet to nail down a firm list of candidates for Two-Face, but Firewall star Paul Bettany and another Aussie, Lachy Hulme, are reportedly being considered for the role of The Joker.
