News of The Dark Knight's December release leads a huge week for DVD lovers, and it's only getting bigger! First, check out our exclusive extended Dubai deleted scene from Iron Man, in which Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) parties it up in the Middle East with Ghostface Killah and a bevy of bikini-clad ladies. Then, watch our exclusive behind-the-scenes video diary from the set of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, in which the ever-cheeky (and topless) Russell Brand profiles his co-stars in the hotel lobby scene, and engages in some racy chat with Kristen Bell. And did we mention all the best (and strangest) new releases of the week?

1. New to DVD: Iron Man -- 93%

Marvel's Iron Man enjoyed a smashing debut this summer (that is, until that pesky Caped Crusader smashed even harder), raking in over $570 million in worldwide sales and making Robert Downey Jr. a bona fide action hero. Expect Tony Stark's heroic exploits to be just as dazzling on DVD, as Paramount offers plenty of extras for diehard fans this week!

Iron Man is available this week in a single-disc edition, an Ultimate 2-disc Edition, and on Blu-ray; a wealth of bonus features accompany the 2-disc and Blu-ray releases, including deleted scenes (Tony Stark in Dubai! Ghostface Killah's cutting room cameo!), a seven-part making-of documentary, a six-part character history, and Downey Jr.'s screen test -- as if there was ever any doubt that he could pull off the role of a charming, sardonic playboy-cum-superhero. And those are just the highlights. The 2-disc release also includes a look at Iron Man's visual effects, image galleries, and more.

We've snagged an extended look at the deleted Dubai party scene tantalizingly leaked a few months back. "I would like to throw a party," Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) tells Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow). "So could you get the house in Dubai ready?" The rest is deleted scene history, as Tony enters his own lavish pool party, replete with celebrity guests, scantily-clad ladies, and a few unfinished green screen backgrounds. Watch it now!

As usual, the Blu-ray element should up the ante...that is, if Iron Man makes it to Blu-ray as planned. (Duh-duh-duhhhhh!) Reports late last week cited a Paramount recall of its Iron Man Blu-ray discs due to an authoring glitch, though the studio has since assured fans that retailers will have replacement discs in by September 30. Let's hope so, since Iron Man is a movie that was always destined for 1080p High Definition. Blu-only features include a 3-D interactive look at Iron Monger and Iron Man's suits, plus a BD-Live user-generated trivia challenge.

Next: Forgetting Sarah Marshall, plus a cheeky exclusive Russell Brand and Kristen Bell clip!

I'm confused. So far, I've heard two different stories on what the special features are for The Dark Knight......

you know those documentaries on the dark knight blu-ray already aired on the history channel. And by the way warheart the special features on the dark knight are what rottentomatoes says it is. from what ive seen that seems to be what is going to be on it.

LOL, Nick Fury was so bad! Man, I really hope they do another Nick Fury movie with JACKSON! Nick Fury is such a cool character, The Hoff messed him up so bad. Looking forward to Iron Man and Sarah Marshall tomorrow. Looking forward to TDK and HB II on Blu Ray.

Man, already talks of an extended Max Payne cut. I think if the director is already talking about an unrated extended cut before the movie even comes out, then that must mean the studio made him cut more then he wanted. Hope Max Payne is good, but my hopes aren't too high plus I will be seeing W. the day Payne comes out.

The studio made him release a PG-13 film, the MPAA made him do the cuts.

The cut scene from Iron Man probably costs as much as a full decent TRUE independant film. . .

I know Joker, I saw him Matt as weel on the movie review show

& his opinion on the new Spike Lee film was by far the best. That Ben Lyons-

he's sooo awful but Matt made the experience worth it. Still, I'm hoping for

a Jen Yamato appearance! And I won't be satisfied till that happens "At the

Movies" producers!!

How is this scene exclusive if I already saw it on Aint It Cool News like a month ago?

Well from the way it looks, the 2-Disc version of TDK has got nothing at all. The 6 scenes in IMAX don't constitute as special features since they're in the movie.

Doomius, if you mean the Iron Man scene, you may have seen it earlier when Access Hollywood ran it months ago. That was technically a "TV exclusive," though those rascals put it on their site as well. Since then it appears to have been taken down, so nobody else should have it now. At least not officially. Also, I believe that party scene was a different cut; ours begins earlier, from what I remember. Anyhow, enjoy it.

Warheart, the Dark Knight details in this column are straight from Warner Bros.' mouth. There were tons of earlier speculative articles floating around the web, some even with product photos that I confirmed with the studio were not official or final. This is what we know now.

That said, I can't wait for December!

What's this "Dark Knight" movie? Has anyone seen it? Is it any good?

Does it have swords and dragons? That'd be cool...

I still don't get why everyone liked Sarah Marshall. I thought it was painful to watch at best, and was not funny at all.

I think Dark Knight is a documentary about Barack Obama.

I am gonna pre-order The Dark Knight. Like big time! I did it the last time when Batman Begins came out on dvd. I will buy Iron Man when I get home but will rent Forgetting Sarah Marshall. That movie was funny as hell.
