Has a sort of brushed steel matte finish to it. It houses both discs (along with a 3 dollar coupon for movie snacks, haha). And has Batmans face on the front of it. The artbook that comes with it is attached to the back and is a nice little 5x6 art pamphlet with a cardstock, glossy, cover. It talks about Batman's background and his gadgets. Along with comic and rendered artwork thrown in. Toaster27,

For those of us in the LA area, or other major urban areas, it can be upwards of $15 per person. I can only imagine how awkward it would be for someone to approach the ticket booth with the "free ticket" voucher and be told that it only covers half of the movie admission. Probably something like this: Moviegoer: Here's my voucher for a free ticket Ticketbooth Guy: OK that'll be $7, this only covers the first $7.50 Moviegoer: But movies haven't cost $7.50 since Batman '89....
