As if Heath Ledger's death and the inherent interest from rabid fans weren't enough to fan Batman mania for "The Dark Knight," the studio feeds the flames with a new DVD release and the Blu-ray high-definition debut of the 2005 hit film. Christian Bale stars as Bruce Wayne, the rich guy who moonlights as a masked vigilante with a tortured soul, in Christopher Nolan's acclaimed superhero tale. With the "Dark Knight" sequel hitting theaters July 18, the first flick returns in two-disc DVD and single-disc Blu-ray gift sets. Highlighting the Blu-ray extras is the "Dark Knight" prologue, the first six minutes of the new film, in which Ledger's Joker and a team of thieves in clown masks pull off a wild bank heist. Other bonus materials include a 32-page DC Comics adaptation of the movie prologue and five Batman postcards. The movie also is available as a basic Blu-ray release. DVD gift set, $39.92; Blu-ray gift set, $49.99; basic Blu-ray release, $28.99. (Warner Bros.)

Also on the Batman front from Warner Bros. are seasons five of the animated shows "The Batman" and its cousin "Teen Titans" (DVD sets, $19.98 each), and the animated movie "Batman: Gotham Knight" (single-disc DVD, $19.98, two-disc DVD set, $29.98, Blu-ray release, $34.99).

Will Smith usually plays the hero in his summer blockbusters. But in "Hancock," he drinks, swears, mouths off _ and goes to prison.

Smith's role as a superhero-gone-bad could be jarring to some moviegoers _ but not his children and wife Jada Pinkett Smith.

"Fortunately, our kids are in the business so they kind of understand," the 39-year-old actor told Associated Press Television News at the red-carpet premiere of the film. "But it is such a bizarre shock for them to see daddy being mean. It was fantastic in our house."
