First off, awesom avatar Bird Boy. 
Secondly, I've said screw it. I'm not going to consider this any sort of canon to the current films so I can enjoy this when I eventually get around to watching it. I mean, Killer Croc...in the Nolanverse? Nah!!

Satoshi Kon being a director was a complete rumor and squashed, today. On the other hand, good to note that Dark Knight's Associate Producer is involved...
It's neat to see that each segment pretty much has its own composer. Good to see Kral and Manthei in there, I enjoyed the previous DTV soundtracks. You miss so much of the music while watching the movie.

If there was one for Superman Doomsday and Justice League: The New Frontier I bet there will be one for this one. If I remember the soundtracks weren't usually announced until close to the movie's release. There's also another thread where you might find more help.
And that trailer is excellent. I really like the quote Batman says in it.

Kevin Conroy will also provide audio commentary for the film along with Greg Noveck and Denny O'Neil.

Hi,
I´m so happy that the "Gotham Knight" DVD and BR are going to include both audio and subs in spanish, and I think it will be interesting to hear the Japanese audio track 
And I´m really looking foward to that audio commentary with Kevin Conroy, although I´ll miss Bruce Timm in the commentary  , I really enjoy listen to him on the commentaries, he always makes them a fun experience to hear.
Can´t wait to buy it.
Later...

While I reckoned they would use "Legends of the Dark Knight", that will feel a bit redundant since one of the six Gotham Knight segments is very similar in story. I'm really happy that Bruce Timm chose "Heart of Ice" and especially "Over the Edge". But there really should have been a Joker episode on here, to show off Mark Hamill's wonderful depiction of the character to people that haven't seen B:TAS before. Wonder why there are four bonus episodes on this one when there were three with The New Frontier.

Now comes the interesting question: Which track came first? The Japanese or English track? Not that it matters, it'll be interesting regardless, to hear both the english and japanese tracks to this. The only issue I have, personally, is whether or not Warner will include a proper subtitle track for the japanese audio. They didn't for their recent anime release...

Who cares? At least it's being included and it'll be nice to hear a Japanese Batman. I'll be a Fan Man and pray for Daisuke Gôri as Batman!!!

Hmm. From the current image of the specs on the back of the Blu-Ray the disc doesn't appear to have lossless audio! Hasn't Warner learned their lesson yet?

Commentary with Kevin Conroy! Cool. The new 2-Disc/Blu-Ray cover art is a major improvement. Having two Batmans on the cover was pretty stupid.
