Jim Bahler of Jim's Comics in Janesville, WI questions the sales reports of the recently released The Dark Knight DVD:
So, what exactly do "sales" consist of? The Janesville, Wisconsin Best Buy has perhaps 50 unsold copies of the Blu-ray The Dark Knight, and is completely sold out of all other editions, even though at least two shipments have been received and sold out almost immediately. More of the regular DVD edition could be sold, if the stores could get them. Perhaps this is a manufacturer's "push" to drive sales of Blu-ray players: "Gee, I can't get The Dark Knight on anything but Blu-ray; guess I'll buy a Blu-ray player today, too." RIIIGHT!!!
