Side question - anyone know if they are coming out with a director's cut for this or if it will have any extra scenes (not deleted scenes). I know there was quite a bit of talk going around during it's theatrical release that Nolan had to cut out around 30 minutes of the movie to shorten it a bit. Anyone know anything about this?

From "Ain't It Cool News"... regarding TDK
"There is no 3 hour cut anywhere - no deleted scenes. He, John Nolan & David Goyer would cut scenes before they ever made it to the screen in what Nolan calls an "aggressive editorial approach." Their criteria was that every scene needs three reasons to be in the film or it's out. This made for a difficult time in the editing suite as every single scene was essential and could not be removed."
and perhaps more importantly...
"If he made a third film, it would be for no reason but the continuation of story. He is currently looking into where the story would go and if it needs to go there. He maintained that it's very hard to make a movie of this scale (and specified he wasn't asking for our sympathy, drawing a laugh from the crowd) - it's two hard years and you gotta love it. One of his biggest fears is getting halfway through making a film and realizing it's unnecessary and he doesn't want to make it anymore. If there is a third story that needs to be told, there will be a third film, but nothing is set in stone or a given."
I heard Nolan was really organized and batman begins hardly had any extra scenes or cut ones, would not suprise me if this is true. I did hear of those rumors as well, we'll see. I just know TDK will be re-released Jan. 23rd in theaters for a 2nd round before awards shows.
