What is the best Batman animated film??
This movie definitely is the best animated Batman movie of all time!
I like and have seen so many... Hmm.. I loved Batman The Killing Joke and Batman Beyond return of the Joker.
For me batman beyond the return of joker(Please go watch it is really good)
@@zombiecat5019 Yes
The Killing Joke is up there, but I think this (in relation to BTAS) is the best. It's important to understand that even though the voice actors played these character for like 2 decades, many of the stories are unrelated.
There is a great story that Kevin Conroy tells. When the attacks of 9/11 happened, he was living in NYC at the time. And he went to go help out at a soup kitchen that was feeding the EMT's, police & firefighters. After a bit of shoveling sandwiches, one of the off duty emergency workers that was also helping out told Kevin he sounded familiar and asked if he was an actor. Kevin told him yeah and said he did the ''Batman, The Animated Series''. This caused the guy to freak out. He ran into the dining room and yelled that Batman was there serving food. And some came in and Kevin did the 'I'm Batman' line. and everyone just geeked out.
I love Batman, I mean Kevin
Amazing Story!! I would have Geeked out Too!! 😁🦇
Rest in peace Kevin. You gave us some brooding memories
The moment when Bruce stares at the mask before putting it on, like taking a deep look at the man he's about to become. And Alfred, even though he knows Bruce since birth, can't help feeling true fear when watching him as Batman. This movie will always be epic af.
Right! Iconic scene. The culmination of all Bruce's suffering and loss and now the last part of him that could have had a "normal", "happy" life is gone. Now he's on this path, like Christ at Gethsemane, begging for reprieve from this destiny.
It still sends chills down my spine.
Shirley Walker doesn't get enough credit for all the amazing music she made for the animated series.
Mark Hamill has provided his voice to quite a few animated series and video games over the years. Around the same time the Batman Animated series ran, he also play the voice of the Hobgoblin in the Spider-Man cartoon.
I'd say batman beyond return of the joker is a amazing watch
Make sure it’s the uncensored cut. The censored cut removes dialogue and footage that makes the movie feel hollow.
Totally agree
Although before that one should watch BTAS, ideally the Superman series or at least World's Finest, and of course Batman Beyond.
YES PLEASE DO BATMAN TAS AND BEYOND. Would even love to see more animated movies like year one, under the red hood, hush, and the long Halloween.
Do the whole DCAU 😎.
Bb: Returm of the Joker is Goated
Bruce punching the biker was definitely an homage to Akira.
This Joker is the benchmark for all other Jokers for me. Joker here walks the tightrope of crazy clown and dangerous psychopathic killer while still having that devilish charm (like Al Capone, except Joker pays his taxes). You can see Joker boil with rage and then in a moment he'll crack a joke as he proceeds to destroy you.
Oh nice!!! 👌
Getting Joker right is hard, a gangster, a clown, a supervillain, an insane person, and a fun person. He can genuinely be jovial and friendly and make you laugh... and then kill you in a horrible way for no reason.
Absolutely love this series. It wasn’t actually before the series, it was actually supposed to be the series finale, but they were renewed (thank God).
The late Shirley Walker's masterful score also makes this a superlative Batman film. It has a richness and depth that's very atypical for standard animated fare, and has some terrific themes and motifs that help ground the film and characters - which is already solid gold in its own right. Thanks, Shirley!
Oh young Padawans, you have much to see and hear of the greatest Batman universe ever. Why we all know Kevin and Mark as the ult Batman and Joker. He created the laugh. I hope you watch more
I was born in the mid ‘80’s, I was almost 10 when this movie came out, and this and Batman: The Animated Series defined my childhood. In fact, I am not even kidding when I say I was so spoiled by the quality of this that I spent the vast majority of my teen years looking for an animated series that even came close to matching it, only to be repeatedly disappointed. Nothing ever came close. Today we have gems like the Original Animated Movies, or even Avatar: The Last Air Bender. But back in the early 1990’s, this was it. This was the peak of animation. I loved this because it was a cartoon that didn’t insult my intellect or assume I couldn’t follow a more involved plot. And because of that, over 30 years later, this is *my* definitive version of Batman.
X-Men: The Animated Series came close, but even it was pretty reliant on cliches and could be way too obvious with its messaging. I was 6 when the show first came out, and I was also spoiled. The Batman and Brave and the Bold just weren’t anywhere near as good.
Disney’s Gargoyles was pretty darn good too until it got way too convoluted.
You guys HAVE to watch the Batman the Animated Series! It's not only the best Superhero show of all time, it's also one of the best shows PERIOD as well as the BEST interpretation of Batman ever with Kevin Conroy voicing the character.
I met Kevin Conroy three years ago at Tampa Bay Comic Con, dressed as the Joker and did my impression of Mark Hamill's Joker. He signed a picture "To Daniel the next Joker."
The original Batman: The Animated Series VAs have ALWAYS been my favorite because I grew up with them ... Plus you know everyone loves them since they used them in the Arkham Asylum games. Just like I pointed out with Catwoman in the Tim Burton 1989 version having the shadows over the face foreshadowing ... You mentioned it in this movie around 8:46 on your own. It was hinting again :) Also the theme song for Batman is done by THE Danny Elfman ... Go look up his works. He has been around forever.
I’ll be honest Troy baker does a pretty good hamill joker impression for the first Arkham game to the point where I didn’t realize it wasn’t hamill until the second game when it was 😭
Awesome fact about Batman The Animated Series: It was all drawn and colored on black paper. This helped give it the depth and saturation that gave it its atmosphere.
Even after having known for so long that Luke Skywalker is the Joker, I still find it mind-blowing.
Not only is the Blu-Ray 100% worth picking up, but if you are able to find the out of print expanded soundtrack Shirley Walker score in full is spectacular!!
The Blu Ray of The Phantom Mask is ok, took a lot out of the original aspect of the film. But the Blu Ray of Batman TAS is abysmal. It ruined the entire aesthetics of the show.
@@FuzzyDlop First of all there is two qspect ratios for Phantasm. Second how is TAS abismal?
Adore this film and how it dives so much into the Batman and Bruce Wayne more so than any of the Live action films. There is the DCAMU a movie universe that is made up of New 52 stories but it's a mix bag some of the films are good like Flashpoint and others are just meh to straight up bad like Hush. But you have the DCAU of the 1990s and early 2000s that is made up of mostly shows starting with Batman Animated Series along with Mask of the Phantasm which is apart of this universe.
The DCAU overall is just a better quality universe plus it has a much more unique look and feel going for a timeless 1930s aesthetic along with modern 1990s tech. The Superman Animated Series also has one of the best renditions of Metropolis it actually looks like a timeless 1950s city of the future rather than some generic East Coast modern city like we see in the movies or the DCAMU. If you want to see more of this Batman universe and don't want to dive into the shows I highly recommend Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero and Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker all set in the DCAU.
Mark Hamill did play The Trickster in the CW Flash series and the 90s Flash series which is like the Joker of the Flash Rogues if you want to get an idea of how Mark would be as a live action Joker.
Mark Hamill is ABSOLUTELY the goat when it comes to Joker voicing.
This is one of the best Batman movies, but literally any movie you can find with Hamill voicing the Joker will be an *amazing* watch (or react) - for bonus points, this almost always means you'll get Kevin Conroy as Batman and Arleen Sorkin as Harley Quinn. Hamill also voiced the Joker in some *very* excellent episodes of Justice League Unlimited (I strongly recommend "Wild Cards").
The Joker in Epic Rap Battles of History's "Joker vs. Pennywise" is strongly influenced by the Hamill Joker as well (although like all ERB characters, is an amalgam of all of his versions), I also highly recommend that if you haven't already checked it out.
You should definitely watch some of the higher rates animated episodes of Batman if you don't want to do the whole thing. Some of Batman's less popular villains really shined, like Clayface, Manbat, Poison Ivy, Mad Hatter and Mr. Freeze. There is also a great episode featuring Adam West playing washed up actor known for The Gray Ghost, who is essentialy The Shadow.
Would people want that?
Definitely!
@@whitenoisereacts Can't speak for others, but I certainly would!
@@whitenoisereacts We all want U to react to the entire Batman The Animated Series and the rest of The DCAU.
@@whitenoisereacts 100%, the main audience of this channel adores batman, and what better iteration of batman is there other than the animated series?
Fun fact: this IS based on a comic where it was actually Andrea’s dad that was the phantasm.
Also, joker’s laughing toxin actually kills it’s victims by having them laugh to death and contorting the victim’s face into a sinister smile…
You are very wrong. PHANTASM WAS NOT BASED ON A PRE EXISTENING COMIC
I really think introducing Nine-Tail Brush to Batman: The Animated Series on this channel would be awesome!
my first batman movie that made me a DC fan . such a nostalgic ❤️ chef’s kiss❤️
They couldn't get the black colors black enough so they would draw on black backing instead of white. It is an awesome show and movie.
The Animated Series was the origin of Harley Quinn, which is pretty cool since she has become a beloved character in DCU. The art deco design of the film and series is way cool. Amazing cartoon.
The best thing about this iteration of Batman is that they actually put detective events into the story. The Christopher Nolan incarnation, as good as the first two films were, they almost never had any analytics of evidence to give him the detective feel. That being said, marketing spoiled the ending of this movie, as the Phantasm action figure had Andrea under the cowl.
Also, fun to note the word “Phantasm” is never spoken once.
One of the best episodes of the animated Batman & Superman series from this time is the crossover of the 2 heroes working together & the 2 villains (Joker & Lex Luther) working together.
Batman 1992-1997 is by far the best Batman time frame ever. Art deco, beautiful, characters completely encapsulate their characters, Kevin Controy, Mark Hammil, fantastic Dialogue, a beautiful seductive dark world again coming back to that dark shading art deco Gotham. Just the best, and the joker with the bright red lips is a perfect synopsis for the beauty of the show.
Mark Hamill is the best Joker . He's done so many things ,Animated movies , tv shows, games
Whenever i read a batman comic with the Joker in it i imagine Mark's voice
As someone lucky enough to have seen this opening nite, and having Akira and BTAS as some of your fave stuff ever at that time was unforgettable. The Akira reference and animated Batman on the big screen was an epic experience for such a wee lad : D
1:16 - After the success of Tim Burton's Batman, the Animated Series was approved. It continued the movie's attempt to pull Batman away from the campy image he developed in the 60s. The show was responsible for reinvigorating the franchise, including improving many C-list Batman villains and even creating a few brand-new characters (Harley Quinn in particular). Mask of the Phantasm was created following the success of the first season. It found limited success upon release due to poor marketing, but is now considered among the best Batman movies.
7:10 - That's _OFFICER_ Harvey Bullock. He's a member of the Gotham PD. In present day he's a Detective, an a-hole that's just barely on the honest side of the law. You saw him in that earlier scene at the courthouse.
9:00 - Remember that you asked that.
12:14 - If you were more familiar with the series, then you'd know that's the whole point.
26:39 - Think back to your watch of the Batman movie. The Joker Toxin (called Smilex in the movie) is one of Joker's classic abilities. It makes a person laugh so hard they suffocate or have an aneurism, locking their faces into a horrible rictus smile in death. It happened numerous times in the Animated Series, and you saw its affects on Sal earlier when The Phantasm came for him.
32:35 - This is most people's Batman. It's also most people's Joker.
DEFINITELY do a series reaction the Batman: TAS. You will not regret it in the least.
Rest In Peace Kevin Conroy the voice of Batman rest well Dark Knight
Best joker ever
In my eyes only Joker ever 🥰
Oh goodness, I'm excited!!! Please, please, please do the animated series!!
Classic addition to the animated series' mythos, which never actually showed the origin story depicted. This or Return of the Joker would be the best animated Bat-film.
BTAS (Batman the Animated Series) is really good, but I don't think you should stop there. There are so many amazing shows in the DC animated universe. Superman the Animated Series, Batman Beyond, Justice League, Justice League Unlimited. I recommend watching them all.
Maybe look for some kind of guide for the best/most important episodes because there are a lot of them. And aside from this, there's only one DCAU movie I'd recommend that's not already part of the regular series. Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. That movie's amazing, but of course you should watch Batman Beyond first.
I had this on VHS back in the day man thre is no telling how much I loved this film when I was a kid
Christmas Day 1993.
That was the opening day of this film.
After Xmas dinner, my mom told me to get my coat and we went to see this movie (wasn't planning on it).
It suffered at the box office because of not enough promotion.
WB just expected this big instant turnout and all because it was a Batman film.
It was the only DC theatrical feature ever and on video cassette, it ranked in the dough and fandom.
In the timeline of the animated series, it's set between seasons 2 and 3.
Btw, Andrea Beaumont aka The Phantasm character was reconned into the Batman/Catwoman miniseries (2020-present).
Love this movie!
I remember watching this movie on Cartoon Network in 2003 and I was hooked! I even have it on Blu Ray!
It was originally going to be the series finale but decided to make 2 more seasons of the BTAS.
It was never supposed to be the series finale as the next season was already ordered before they started making the movie.
RIP Kevin Conroy, you'll always be the best Batman ❤
You fellas really need to try out the animated series this is based on, each episode was basically a mini-movie and is some of the best Batman stuff around. Maybe 3 or 4 episodes per video? It'd be absolutely worth it, trust me, and people would flock to see it. The show is some of the best animated TV there's ever been, it really needs more love.
Mark Hamill is THE best joker. His laugh is absolutely chilling. And he’s actually intimidating.
Also if you wanna see the most brutal animated joker I recommend either Under the Red Hood or Return of the Joker. They are BRUTAL
My mother was around 45 when I first introduced her to Mask of The Phantasm. She just about wore out our VHS version "playing it for the grandchildren." She's in her 70s, now, and it's still her favorite Batman movie.
My favorite batman movie. I rented this the most back in the day.
R.I.P. Kevin Conroy (1955-2022).
17:04 one thing I love about this scene is that no matter how far he walks into the light, he never gets illuminated, You only see him as a shadow.
Mark Hamill as joker is so sick
28:05 that’s the acid melting of her scythe.
RIP to Kevin Conroy he was one of our favorite Batman.
This is the best Batman movie ever made. It puts all other versions (including the live actions) to shame.
Batman The Animated series is worth it! Btw incase you guys don't know, that show is apart of a whole ass DC Animated Universe! It includes Superman The Animated series, Justice League the Animated series, etc! It's one of the most Iconic and beloved takes on the DC Universe, I think you'd both REALLY like it
Also the "Harley and Ivy" episode which has the best ending with Montoya.
The Animated series is LEGENDARY
There are a few other movies in this universe for batman.
Batman and Mr Freeze: Subzero
Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman
Superman and Batman: World's Finest
Crazy to think that if only things had happened a little differently between Bruce and Andrea in the past, Batman wouldn't exist.
It's funny you guys should mention the differences in Batman's voice. We actually see that come in to play where Bruce identifies more with Batman than with his identity as the heir of the Wayne estate. There's a later episode in the sequel series to the Batman Animated Series, called Batman Beyond, where someone is trying to make him think he's crazy by calling his name out to him inside of his head. Well it turns out that there's a reason why he doesn't believe in the hallucinations… And it's because he doesn't identify with his own "name."
You see that kind of thing a lot with the TV show from the 90s. And I hope you guys honestly do take on reacting to it, it's so enjoyable and nostalgic and absolutely perfect in the rendition of Batman.
R.I.P. Kevin Conroy.
Batman is dead. Long live The Batman
Saw this in theaters as a kid was 11…still have the movie poster framed in my music studio
Hands down, my favorite Batman and Joker. =D Grew up with this series.
One of the best Batman movies of all time
My absolute favorite, Shirley Walker's score....omg
Great reaction boys!
Fvcorite part of the phantasms identity subplot is having the same voice actor as Andrea's dad.
there are so many good dc animated movies
I love "Batman: the animated series" and this movie. Mark Hamill is the best joker; he scares the shit outta me. I figured out who the phantasm was.
Batman The Animated Series has 4 movies:
The Mask of Phantasm, Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero, Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, and Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman.
There is also a crossover with Superman:
The World's Finest.
A nice piece of trivia:
The voice actor of the old mobster Sal Valestra is Abe Vigoda, the guy who played Sal Tessio in The Godfather.
Another thing is that in the flashbacks to a young Sal you see him smoke a lot and then the old version of him is suffering for that, needing oxygen for is lungs
Another voice actor Dana Delaney, the voice of Andrea, was brought to play Lois Lane in Superman the Animated Series
This isn't my favorite Batman film overall, but it is my favorite theatrical Batman film since they did release it in theaters last minute. Gorgeous animation, phenomenal voice acting, a thrilling story, it's just a badass movie!
I didn’t see this in the comments, but Mask of the Phantasm did not come out before the Animated Series. It came out a year after that show started airing.
"It's like Batman is a kaiju!" Batman Ninja anyone?
I was lucky enough to see this in a theater as a kid because I was able to catch that short window of a theatrical release, and it was _phenomenal._ That scene at the climax with the chorus blasting as Joker laughs himself into oblivion with Andrea hits on a different level in a theater, and it's always stuck with me both as an illustrator and animation nerd.
I love Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamil. They are my favorite Batman and Joker to date. Mostly because I was really obsessed with the Arkham Games. I haven’t played in some time but they really bring the characters to life.
I really hope you watch episodes of the show too.
This was my all time favorite animated batman movie until Hush came out which is something y’all would love. y’all should check that and the long Halloween next the animated Batman movies r never disappointing
I was probably 14ish when this hit theaters. As I remember, the animated series was already on TV, but I thought it had been longer before the movie came out. A quick Google search tells me the movie came just one year after the series started.
I do highly recommend watching the animated series. Then, if you like, continue on too the likes of Superman, Batman Beyond, and the Justice League series. Even if you don't do reaction videos, they're worth checking out.
Thumb this shit up for them to react to BATMAN BEYOND RETURN OF THE JOKER
rip Kevin💐
Mark Hamill joker is the best..when someone says joker i can only hear mark Hamill's laugh
Oh god return of the joker is a must-see (loved this. Took me a while to watch this even though I am a giant Batman fan because I hadn't actually watched Phantasm when you released this)
One thing I saw mark hamill talk about was how he didn’t want the joker to have just one type of laugh which is why sometimes he sounds villainous, sarcastic, or actually laughing at something he found funny bc mark imagined the joker would find ALL of it funny so every laugh he does is the joker taking GENUINE joy in whatever he does and bc he could one day laugh at murder then the next a silly fart joke, every laugh had to be different each time ❤️🔥 and the fact that he played fire lord ozai in the last airbender later on as well as many other animated roles, I never thought he’d be such a great VA
Wow 🤩
Nice. btas and Batman Beyond are awesome Batman entertainment.
The animated series have about the best variation of the well known villains too. The episodes are like 20 minutes film noir batman stories. I highly recommend watching those too, especially because Joker is heavily featured so you can see what Mark did with his voice to bring the character to life.
You get a more fleshed out world and characters than in this movie, because there is more time devoted to them, not as rushed as in this movie.
It’s not really laughing gas. It’s this chemical called Joker Venom that he injects into his victims.
I loved the 1939 New York World's Fair "World of Tomorrow" representation, in all its art-deco splendor. Even the Joker's jet pack was vintage. The animated series, and this story, are wonderfully and deliberately anachronistic - a 1940s world with modern technology. Incidentally, the 1939 Fair had the first appearance of an actor (Ray Middleton) in a Superman costume, a fact which probably was known to the filmmakers.
My son and my husband and I use to watch this show together when it was on tv. This is my favorite Batman because it’s great and because Roddy McDowell was a villain in the 60’s Batman and this one. Roddy is my favorite actor. Fell for him in Lord Love A Duck. He is hilarious in this cartoon show. I know Joker but man the funny bad guys made the show great too.
I know I'm late with this comment, but I'm fairly new to the channel, so I've been going back and watching a lot of the older videos and decided to watch all of your Batman reactions since I'm a huge Batman nerd. If you haven't already, I would love to see your guys' take on "Batman: The Killing Joke."
Subzero is the 2nd best animated movie, not counting "under the red hood".
Yes, absolutely watch the animated series. One of the greatest cartoons/superhero shows of all time.
This was originally a flop. But I hope now it’s made itself above all that. It’s brilliant, and always has been in my opinion. 🇬🇧
This movie is an original story that Bruce Timm and the Animated series writers made up
Drawn on black paper to create the dark gothic look
For me this is the best Batman movie ever, and not just among the animated ones. Animated adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns is a close second, for me.
Arkham Batman is the best…Conroy plus the comics, best design, especially for the villains etc
Watch Batman Under the Red Hood next to see the Jason Todd story even though it is not connected to the animated series.
I hope you get to watch the animated series. It is fantastic. This movie is too.
I think Batman The Animated Series is a bit inconsistent. Some episodes are better than this movie but some are not good. Fortunately there are more good episodes than bad ones so it definetly worth a watch. Some episodes are so good that they changed the comics. Harley Quinn was created for the BTAS. I think you two should watch BTAS and if you like it continue with other DCAU shows.
There are no bad episodes of Batman TAS. You're confusing it with another show. The lesser episodes are "just good". But most of them are great. It's by far the most consistent version of Batman ever not to mention the definitive version of Batman. You're probably thinking of when the show became "The Adventures of Batman and Robin" which had less great episodes.
@@FuzzyDlop I've Got Batman In My Basement? Prophecy of Doom? The Underdwellers? Cat Scratch Fever? Those are early Batman The Animated Series episodes that even creators hate. I think there are other bad ones like The Cape and Cowl Conspiracy or Moon of the Wolf. Adventures of Batman and Robin has only two really bad episodes. Terrible Trio and The Lion and the Unicorn. The New Batman Adventures has only two really bad episodes. Critters and Love is a Croc. Early Batman The Animated Series isn't perfect. But it has more flawless episodes than bad episodes. So i would say it is pretty good.
If I may suggest a movie for you guys to watch and a little different... try "Shin Godzilla", with the English Funimation dub. Quite possibly one of the best Godzilla movies and a very dark one, too.
