Warner Home Video has revealed the BD-Live features that will be included in the upcoming Blu-ray release of 'The Dark Knight', which is due to hit store shelves on December 9th, day-and-date with the DVD release. The first feature will be a "Live Community Screening" where users will be able to watch the movie with friends and chat with each other during the screening. You can either send out invitations to friends, or just join in with the entire BD-Live community.

Another feature will be "My WB Commentary" which will allow you to record a picture-in-picture (BonusView) commentary track using a standard webcam and share it will friends or the community. The track will then play as a PIP video while your friends watch the film.

Other web-based features will be provided as well. You'll have the ability to download trailers from upcoming Warner Brothers films, create an online library of Blu-ray titles, manage a wishlist of upcoming WB Blu-ray titles, and even connect to the WB Store.

Warner Brothers is also planning to host a special "Live Community Screening" with director Christopher Nolan where fans will be able to interact with the filmmaker.

And if that's not enough, there will be more content and features added at a later date.
