Warner Bros. and the film makers of “The Dark Knight” are planning to re-release the film in theater hoping to attract the voting session of the Academy Awards. The studio not only wants Heath Ledger to win for Best Actor in a Leading Role, they are desperate in getting Oscar nominated for more categories such as “Best Picture”, “Best Director”, “Best Adapted Screenplay”, etc.

The film is aiming for a DVD release date in December.

I’ve said it once before that “The Dark Knight” deserves “Best Picture”, I’m glad Warners is pushing for it.
