Best Batman film of all time? 🤔
Watch Batman And Harley Quinn (2017) and then ask that question.
I actually think it is. The Nolan and Burton movies are great but this one captures every thing likable and tragic about Batman and Bruce Wayne and the noir roots of the comics. It's a shame the budget wasn't higher. That is why the animation seems like TV animation, good but not spetacular. Still they did the best with what they had and created a wonderful cinematic piece.
Undoubtedly. Animated adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns is in second place.
Yes.
@@BigGator5 that one is the 2nd worse batman movie
The Ultimate Joker, played by Mark Hamill, the best Live Action Joker was Heath Ledger, but Mark Hamill sent shivers down people's spines with his laugh, plus the Animated Series gave birth to Harley Quinn
Facts.
Heath Ledger was Chris Nolan's Joker, because Nolan hated comic books and wanted everything in Gotham City to be "real", including loose-cannon RUclips celebrities...Party-pooper.
The 90's Batman cartoon wanted to stay true to the 40's vibe of the original Golden Age comic, and Mark Hamill WAS the sardonic circus showoff of the original comic. Mark Hamill, Jack Nicholson or Caesar Romero, end of debate.
@@ericjanssen394 Far be it from my anarchist ass to defend Christopher "Neocon" Nolan but to be fair, he never said he hated The Comics, that was actually Tim Burton.Indeed, Nolan and Goyer cited classic Batman stories such as "Year One","The Long Halloween","The Man Who Falls" and "The Dark Knight Returns" as influences on their screenplays as well as Charles Dickens` "A Tale of Two Cities",Knightfall","The Killing Joke","The Joker`s Three-Way Revenge " and Joker`s first two appearances and even the most controversial aspect of Heath`s Joker appearance, the scarred smile,was a callback to Joker`s original inspiration:Conrad Veidt in the tragic silent film "The Man Who Laughs"). Hell, the mask Joker used in the bankheist scene in the opening was an updated version of one Cesar Romero`s Joker wore in an episode of Batman(1966) so it`s not fair to say just because Nolan`s personal sensibilities were more on the realistic and grounded side he did not appreciate the more comedic side of Batman lore(As Michael Caine`s Alfred Pennyworth and Morgan Freeman`s Lucius Fox also demonstrated as well as Christian Bale`s Bruce Wayne outside of the Batsuit and sometimes even in it showing a deadpan sense of humour not unlike Nolan himself in his rare interviews) ,he was just hesitant about going too deep down that rabbithole lest he repeat Schumacher`s mistakes with "Batman & Robin".
@@ericjanssen394 I will say, however, that I find it unfair Nolan gets all the credit for showing that a more grounded take on the comic book superhero film genre could work when the X-Men films, first two Punisher films,Daredevil,Blade,Men In Black and the Spider-Man films already did that!
@@AspieMediaBobby When Dark Knight came out, people thought.MCU’s Iron Man one month earlier was a fluke, and didn’t go to see Edward Norton’s Incredible Hulk because of the ‘03 mess.
So, when grownup non-fan critics fell all over themselves to say TDK “didn’t LOOK like a comic-book movie!”, they meant it didn’t look like the Fantastic Four movies or the Nic Cage Ghost Rider.
Joker is voiced by Mark Hamil who has since retired the role
My absolute favorite Batman film. It actually has him doing what he’s supposed to do solve a mystery as he has the title of the World’s Greatest Detective. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill’s Batman and Joker are top tier in their fields and the score by the late great Shirley Walker is spectacular!
I own the blu-ray and cd of this film and highly recommend picking up both.
The Killing Joke is a straight to DVD movie, an adaptation of the graphic novel and it was very underwhelming. Even though Mask of the Phantasm didn't have a big budget (just a step above the animated series set in the same universe) this movie is highly acclaimed and rightly so, many people considering it THE BEST Batman movie period.
The other Batman movies set in the DCAU (the DC Animated Universe kickstarted by Bruce Timm) are all straight to DVD. Sub Zero is good but nothing spetacular, The Mystery of the Batwoman is underwhelming but still good overall and Batman Beyond: The Return of the Joker is excellent! Almost as good as Mask of the Phantasm, but is set in the Batman Beyond future with Terry McGinnis as the new Batman and Bruce Wayne as his old mentor. It doesn't necessarily require a whole lot of knowledge about Batman Beyond the animated TV series but it is certainly more enjoyable if you were already immersed in that world. Knowing about the history of the second Robin (Tim Drake) is also relevant but the thing is almost the entire DCAU is worth your time. Really cool stuff!
Now that your getting into animated movies, you should watch Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective!
It’s criminally underrated!
Adding it to the list! Thanks for the recommendation 😊

RIP Kevin Conroy 11/10/2020
This was the first movie I saw in the theaters where me and my friends were the only people there. Good times.
This movie delves deeper into Batman's pysche than any other Batman film before or since. In most Batman movies the villain is the most interesting character in it. This is a Batman movie.
Couldn't have put it better Tony ... I very much enjoyed both Bruce W. + Batman ... definitely two pronounced portrayals in this film that depicted so well what each is looking for 😊
The ending is epic. There's a comic that explains what ultimately happened, but I refuse to read it and spoil the ending.
Fun Fact: Late in production, Warner Bros. decided to make the movie a theatrical release instead of the originally intended direct-to-video feature. While the animators were thrilled and extremely grateful for this decision, this left them with less than a year of production time and scrambling to convert the aspect ratio to wide-screen.
Also didn’t help it at all since if I recall it’s actually a box office failure
Damn you cut out the best Joker laugh ever but still grdat reaction
Haha yes! Love Hamill's dark and mysterious laugh! And thank you so much for the comment 😊
@@latenightswithsammy I wish you didn't cut out
Mask of the Phantasm, Return of the Joker and the Justice League episode Epilogue. That is a perfect bookend to the DCAU and even connects back to Phantasm.
Wow! Thank you so much for providing this order ☺️ it'll definitely be fun to get to see the full picture develop!
@@latenightswithsammy Of course. I hope you do a reaction for Epilogue. You will definitely cry at one part. I promise.
Edit: I don't know if you read another comment, but get the uncensored version of Return of the Joker.
Fact: Phantasm was LOOSLY based on the Batman villain The Reaper (who was an earlier vigilante in Gotham who kills).
I get chills every fucking time that Bruce first dons the mask and the orchestral theme kicks in as he turns and Alfred sees him for the first time as Batman. Every. Fucking. Time. I actually synced it up to Batman putting on his batsuit in "Arkham City"and its perfect.
"Bambi", the black haired bimbo at Bruce's party, is voiced by Arleen Sorkin(Harley Quinn).
First time Joker actually got to kill someone in the Batman series!
There was actually a follow up comic that went into what happened to Andrea, the Joker and that slimy DA Arthur following "Mask".
COULDN'T AGREE WITH YOU MORE
.. GOOSEBUMPS!
batman mask of the phantasm is one of my favorites and to my opinion this movie is exactly what Batman returns should've been.
Right on! Getting into more Batman content this week, so excited 😊
@@latenightswithsammy I don't know what it is you're working on but I'm looking forward to it.
RIP Kevin Conroy, voice of Batman
His legendary V.O of Batman will live on forever
No one reacts to this movie, and so no one knows that this reaction is out there.
One of my favorite movie too
True 😅 it is. Masterpiece, can't wait to get this film to become nostalgic ☺️
Mark Hamill was really good as the Joker!
Totally agree!
Welcome to Batman in this movie about a mysterious person who could give the Joker a run for his money
The artistic of the Batman Animated Series is just amazing. As you probably already know Tim Burton drew heavily from the 1930s when creating his rendition of Gotham mostly in terms of the outfits and overall architectural designs diving into that Art Deco artistic very much like the film Metropolis. The Animated Series on the other hand dives much more into that 1930s and 1940sfeel from the vehicles to the weapons and fashion it really feels like Gotham is stuck Art and design wise is in the 1930s/1940s but have modern 1990s technology the setting of the series. This artistic does differ a bit the more into the DCAU add some elements of 1970s for example police vehicles but the overall artistic stays the same.
Metropolis on the other hand has a more 1950s retro futuristic vibe the city of the future in the eyes of people from the 1950s. Think Fallout and the Jetsons but more grounded. I’m honestly still waiting for a true depiction of Metropolis in live action as most renditions just go for your generic modern city for example the DCEU.
The Batman coming out soon looks to draw heavily from that Dark Noire feel but still mostly uses modern elements but you can see a lot of hints of that old gothic Art Deco Gotham City so I cannot wait to see how Gotham in the movie.
I love this breakdown ... Really appreciate you pointing out the references + architectural / surrounding differences .. it's truly an exceptional film, completely loved the opening shots that just grazed over the tall metropolises ☺️
Released in my birth year. I feel old now.
Haha, what an epic day to be born! Thanks for sharing this 🙂
You should check out Batman: under the Red Hood, it's the second best Batman movie behind this one, and both movies are character defining for Batman.
Will definitely check it out! Thanks for the recommendation 😊
@@latenightswithsammy no prob!
Fact: This is the first Batman the Animated Series thing with on screen deaths.
You ought to do reactions to Batman: The. animated Series!I think you'd enjoy it!
YES!!! Can't wait to watch it!
@@latenightswithsammy I'm looking forward to it.
The Batman Animated series, followed by the Superman Animated series and then the Justice League series were all amazing. The best. All done by the people that did this movie. Some of the other animated movies were good, but none on the level of these series.
I'm so pumped to discover these classics for the first time ... Going to be watching something this week ... Batman related 😁
@@latenightswithsammy just remember, the TV shows were the best quality. The Dini/Timm ones. I was more of a Marvel guy and thier Earth's Mighiest Heroes was their best and it wasn't on the Dini/Timm level.
My personal favorite batman movie. I've probably watched it more times than any other batman movie
Have you seen the 2012 + 2013 animated movies?? They're great too ☺️ starting to love these animated movies!
Question am I the only one whom thinks they should’ve put the flashback of what happened to Andrea’s father after the phantasm is revealed to be her? To bring in a bit more of a “shock” and then we find out “oh her fathers dead and that’s why she’s doing this”
Very good suggestion! Would've brought it home for those who were confused / off guard
Nice video! One thing though, you should cease from putting your image at the center of the screen whenever you talk (unless it's done for copyright reasons). People generally like to 'watch' along with the reactor, so it's a bit halting if you stop the scene whenever you speak. People will still enjoy your reaction alongside the story!
Hey Tristan ... Thank you so much for writing in and sharing your thoughts ☺️ As you mentioned, it is more as a copyright thing ... But I do understand how it could be jarring. Hopefully a creative solution pops up in my head to appease both situations ☺️
Watch Return of the Joker next!
Ohhh ... Anything with Joker is a must watch 😁
I really hope you can react to batman beyond return of the joker! It is so underaided! Mark Hamill is the best joker!
Can you react to Tim Burton's batman (1989), batman forever, and batman Sub-Zero please?
Why not?!? I love me some Batman ... And just a little sneak peak ... There's some Batman content coming this week 🙂
@@latenightswithsammy like what?
Can you react to the fanscription videos of what if Harley Quinn was in batman 89, what if Harvey Dent was in batman returns, and what if Tim Burton directed batman forever?
Ohh, that would be wonderful!! Where would I find them?
@@latenightswithsammy It's on Channel Awesome just type fanscription.
@@latenightswithsammy did you find it?
@@latenightswithsammy please tell me, did you find them?
@@latenightswithsammy here they are what if Harley Quinn was in batman 89, what if harvey dent batman returns, and what if Tim Burton directed batman forever.

This movie is actually a very VERY loose adaptation of a bad Batman comic, Year Two. It's that, but done much better.
Ahh .. interesting, never knew they had a 'Year 2' comic, thought it was only the first year 😅
@@latenightswithsammy Lol there's also a Year Three, I'm not sure if it's any good or not.
@@fynnthefox9078 No way! Is that the same approach they took with the Superman comics?
This show was composed by Danny Elfman
No it wasn't. It was Shirley Walker (RIP). The animated series used Elfman's theme in the intro, but that's about it.
@@dosnostalgic Shirley Walker does not get enough credit for the work she did on the show. She gave every villain their own unique theme which was unheard of at the time.
It is ... A BRILLIANT SCORE might I add 😊
