  • Awesome!

  • definitely one of the most underrated films ever

  • I feel bad for Bruce Wayne because Andrea was a chick with some serious issues lol

  • Wtf? Why did they blame Batman for the death of that guy who drove the car into the building? It was the guy's fault. He tried to run over the Phantasm...

  • I remember watching this as a kid, but I didn't realize how dark the storyline was until I came back and watched it as an adult. It shows the history of Batman, the events leading up to his transformation into a crime fighter, and the history of the joker and one of Batman's girlfriends who was involved with the joker's gang. That scene where she finds her dad dead is so dramatic.

  • This is how a cartoon is actually supposed to look like, not all the crap their is now.

  • Nostalgia Critic brought me here! :D

  • hello childhood! missed ya

    

  • oh look my childhood.....if been looking everywhere for it

  • Did this movie go on theatres?

  • @ecartman12 Yes, for a limited release and it was box office success

  • @TiNKERhq Box office success??? I heard just recently by someone else that it had no advertising budget and it did not make it's money back.

  • Mask of the Phantasm.

    AKA, an instructional video on how to make a good Batman film.

  • The top four Batman movies for me are: *not ranked*

    The Dark Knight

    Batman *1989 movie*

    Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

    Batman Begins

    Thumbs up if this movie made up your childhood (or made up a huge part of it) along with the show. There hasn't been another Batman movie where they didn't just capture the feel of the comic, but actually surpassed the comic in some respects. This movie isn't just a simple movie, it is the apex of animated comic book movies, just beating AKIRA (also perfect).

  • @etiscool1 Dude... what is it with you fags and asking for thumb up? You give THAT much of a shit that you need some kind of positive confirmation? Please, explain this to me because I see it all over youtube, and it's disturbing that somehow something so faggy can somehow be reproducing.

  • Thanx for uploading

  • A phantom in a mask? What a strange and unusual idea. XD

    Also I love this movie, but those CGI buildings bug me.

  • @PhantomFluttershy They aren't cgi ....

  • i love that opening music +U+

  • Who is the enemy?

    Scarecrow?

  • @jokersmile4hahahaha the Phantom, the name said all xD

  • @jokersmile4hahahaha and the joker :P

  • @jokersmile4hahahaha I could have sworn they were...

  • @PhantomFluttershy

    They are.

    That person must be blind!

  • @Skeletonwitharaygun I guess that's a compliment to the animator!

  • Comment removed

  • Thumbs up if you were hoping for the Phantasm instead of Catwoman in the next Nolan film.

  • never say the n word in front of bruce. batman hates racists

  • @ghostbusters1235 Nintendo?

  • this is a complete masterpiece.. plot, music, direction...

  • I never saw this before. On Halloween, I'm going to.

  • Must have seen this 20 times

  • at 0:29 the opening credits well that music that is playing was BORN! for batman :D i was like WOW now thats how a badman main theme song should sound like lol

  • I always wanted Nolan to work this story into his movies at some point.

  • This film has one of my favorite soundtracks! Thanks for uploading, your site with the episodes (although not complete) is really awesome. Appreciate them!

  • WAY better than the Dark Knight. Luke Skywalker>>>The Bareback cowboy.

  • @wimpyliberalbuster32 i hated The Dark Knight, so yes, this is miles better ;)

  • @SteveAnchenzo:

    Actually it's a 20's/30's setting, because it's the Art Deco Gotham city just like the 1989 movie with Keaton and Nichelson.

    For example look at the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building, they are Art Deco.

  • I like that it's set in a '40's theme but Batman still has modern technology.

    Thumbs up? Eh eh

  • this should be the next batman movie after the dark knight!!!

  • wow i forgot how awesome the soundtrack reallys is for this movie...

  • 2:20

    Bad guy: Anyone gotta a problem with that?

    (CRASH)

    Batman: I do.

    (Proceeds to kick their asses.)

  • This is so epic.

  • I like how the part where ZOMFG THE WHOLE THING!!!!!!!

    Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill have yet to be outdone at creating Batman moments. Yes I'm counting Heath Ledger, and Michael Keaton. I'm not saying those guys weren't great. I'm just saying they are about an 8.5, and I'm holding out for a 10. And Conroy and Hamill are an 11. o.o

  • "Thanks for the handkerchief Arthur, you know we´re you can stick it" You see? Things like these are what made these kind of animation cool, teaching kids how to insult people with style.

  • @karrazaki89 gotta love those classy insults.

    

  • i dont get it is this shit suppose to be taking place in circa 1950? cuz everyone and thing looks like its from circa 1950 aside from batmans gadgets and few other exceptions

  • This film was released on December 25, 1993.

  • Batman took his time getting on to that overpass, didn't he?

  • OH THANK FUCK THE REAL THING!!! THE REAL BLOODY THING!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU KISSES!!! HUGS AND KISSES!!! AWKWARD GROPING HUGS AND KISSES!!!!

  • this should have been a live action movie

  • "...why you're the very model of sanity. oh, by the way, i pressed your tights and put away your exploding gas balls."

    LOL!! alfred has so many wins, its awesome XD

  • he guys at 3:35 its NOOB SAIBOT pmsl

  • Batman TAS + Batman Beyond + The Batman were the best of the best animated batman series ever, Thank got Brave and The Bold ended, the animation of that series was shit and was not dark/serious at all, really pussy show, good thing James Tucker is working on a new and more Dark and Serious Batman Series, hopefully a Season 6 continuation of "The Batman" cos the Heroes + Villains in that series, especially the crazy dark Joker had awesome Voice Acting! :D

  • @rohannesburg actually i was hoping that bruce timm and paul dini would make an original direct to dvd justice leauge movie. same cast. same animation. same heroes. now THAT would be a real treat.

  • @rohannesburg me to i love the batman and not that stupid brave and the bold crap i hate iann robertson cause he said it was stupid

  • @rohannesburg Brave and the Bold ended? YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

    I had no idea James Tucker was developing a new Batman animated series, I hope it reaches the same level as TAS. And Mark Hamill (He said he isn't retiring after all) and Kevin Conroy hopefullt can voice Joker and Batman.

    I'm pumped for it now!

  • @Wingerdinger0 No shit, is it going to be a Cartoon or a more mature series.

  • Damn that brings me back in my childhood.. thank you so much cyearies for uploading this <33

  • Hypothetically I mean

  • I don't like how it's the same voice actor who did Lois Lane.

    I can get over it though. But that's like the same actress playing Mary Jane and Jean Grey

  • @S1deshowRobP5 that's Dana Delaney (post China Beach/pre-Despearate Housewives). Timm and Dini were so impressed by her work as Andrea, they kept her in mind when they started up Superman:The Animated Series.

  • WHO were the 13 people who DISLIKED this? o.0

    Friigin love batman <3

  • such an amazing cartoon the fighting is well choreographed and the soundtrack kicks ass

  • i love how the asian chick talks

    

  • 7:07, never got that joke till 15 years later.

  • @snow76creek I don't still understand... please explain? :(

  • @tosswartul Engadget, she said Ingadget. Which is wrong.

  • @snow76creek Oh! XD

    Thank you very much! Now I get it! XD

  • ah the good ol' days 

  • what is wrong with the asian chick's eyes?? O.o

  • What exactly is his train of thought? "Hey a car just crashed thru a window...strange that there would be a piece of glass here. I'd better take it."

  • "anybody got a problem with that?" batman sure as hell does XD

  • Oh snap! i should grab me some popcorn

  • I hope you don't mind but I decided to use this as the "saturday film" of a Toonami playlist I'm making.

  • I am the night, I AM BATMAN!!!!!!

  • Oh man I haven't seen this in years! Fucking awesome!

  • Best Batman movie everr!

  • Man...I had this when I was a kid and then I hit the stage where Batman wasnn't cool, now I'm old enough where I don't give a fuck and I wish I knew where this movie was, probably threw it away....oh well...OFF TO THE MOVIE STORE!

  • Bruce Wayne has the best suitable face and voice to be as BATMAN. (>^v^<)

  • @SoberForAwhile I think you mean Kevin Conroy (?), since Bruce Wayne IS Batman in the comics, movies, cartoons, etc. (with only one slight exception) =P

  • Dude the begging of the Movie was the best head start ever. Seriously it's perfect. Would you agree with that?

  • you need to turn it up a notch

  • I remember being 23 & seeing this in NY in that little theater on 2nd Av. & 13th? St.

    It was cool. I liked the animated series on TV.

  • That Phantasm haunted my dreams from the age of 6 to well NOW

  • @ cyearies Please tell me the song in minutes 0:42 Thanks =)

  • In Italian there is the film?

  • that lady gave me night terrors for a long time

  • THE 90S ROCKED :)

  • Love the soundtrack, so much memories

  • Thanks, IGN for the referral!

  • The plot to this movie is better most of the Tim Burton movies

  • @RADIXCHRISTUSMOLE i think you're right actually. while i enjoy all of the live action batman films to an extent, i think mask of the phantasm might be the most brilliant.

  • engagement is spelled with an E, fuck sakes.

  • i love batman go go b-my man=D and im a girl.

  • IGN said that they liked this better than the Dark Knight

  • Charlie should've just left Phantasm alone, when he had the chance...

  • This movie gave me nightmares as a child. xD

  • @SAPSAL76 had to take a dump?

  • now that`s a freaking intro soundtrack :P

  • Such good memories!!! I'm glad i grew up in time where good shows like this were around :)

  • hey who are you talking to? my dead cat... -_o got a problem with that???

  • -sigh- I definately grew up in the wrong decade. What can a person do for a really kick-ass show like bat-man these days?

  • I'm sorry but the music score still creeps the hell out of me.

  • "I...AM....BATMAN!"

    

  • Dam i was 4 when this came out.this was the best batman series ever also...i was taking care of my nephew the other day and i have 2 say the batman brave and the bold sucks ass compared 2 Batman the Animated Series

  • Comment removed

  • 7:04 sounds like "Never say the N word in front of Bruce" lol

  • andrea meet lois lane....or have u met?

  • 13 people love christian bale's batman

  • this brings back good memories

  • All this hate for Christian Bale's Batman? Thumbs up if you think he was good, but Kevin Conroy is still better

  • @guitarzombieghgh fuck kevin conroy. why? cause his names kevin and all kevins are queefs

  • @ParkerGangsta Can't argue with THAT logic

  • 2:20 yeah someone does...

  • Wow, a black chick an, asian chick AND a white chick? Dang Bruce...you a playa.

  • @APTKANE82 Not just a playa, Bruce Wayne is THE playa. It's the same when he's Batman to.

  • wow. this was definitely one of the best batmans of the time. Beat the piss out of Batman Forever... thats for sure.

  • 13 pplz are fucking fagets i mean come on dont be hatein on the bats

  • i have not seen this sice i was like 3 iv always been a batman fan and allways will be i just love the batman imo this is the defineing moment for the batman cartoon

  • I miss the old days of cartoons.

  • I swear that Bruce Timm is God-like when it comes to animation.

  • Jesus H. Christ. I watched this when I was six -- I forgot how eerie it is. Amazing, absolutely amazing.

  • Kevin Conroy IS the voice of Batman!!!!

  • i still got this on tape. i haven't seen it years.

  • thanks alot for the batman epis i been trying watch them but havent really been able to find any.

    man takes me back to 90s best cartoons ever

  • Fuck myself, i havent seen this since i was a mere boy!! This movie is the equivalent of "The Shit"!!!

  • The Dark Knight took the spotlight away from Batman, and that's not good!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Now Imagine a Batman movie with this Storylines..... 1.same story as this with Phantasm as a Secondary Villian, 2.Mr. Freeze is the main Villain, Story set as Arkaham Asylum game, and dark and gritty as Batman Returns 3.Poison Ivy as a gamechanger character. Top it all off Brandon Routh playing Batman...

    Sounds like an amazing idea to me

  • @vandamnyc26 that sounds like a horrible idea to me

  • @vandamnyc26

     that sounds like a horrible idea to me

  • I love the opening theme..It sounds like the beggining of The hunt for Red October..Was it written by Basil Poldouris?

  • But seriously?! A screen recoreder?!?! Watch it under "spiffy98"'s channel in the related links below. FAR better quality!

    This is just trash.

  • @robsee055

    Dont be so modest, kid. That's because it actually *is*. I'm 21, and saw this series (not any particular episodes, tho), and I rly didn't like it. I guess I just didn't get it...I was always liked the Superman one better. (Their by the same people.)

    But seeing this totally new is,"Wow'Holy fuck this is good!" And, "How the hell'd we get away with that?!" (Not even the writers and staff knew. Lol)

  • the year they actually was the 90s they just put a little 30s twist to it

  • Man, this is just one of those films I kept watching over and over as a kid. I'm glad I recently watched it again (on good ol' VHS!!), because now that I'm older I can truly appreciate this work of art!

  • @geekint0sh Yeah. I'm 14, and I think this is WAY BETTER than the shit they pass as "cartoons" today..And I used to have this on VHS when I was a kid too. I absoutly LOVE this film!

  • O.o why's that asian chicks eyes black

  • Agreed, Dragon Ball Z and Batman TAS are the greatest shows, ever!

  • They should make this into a real movie!

  • any idea of where I can get the starting music with the Latin?

  • Best ki'ds program ever.

  • AND WELL...

    the best batman voice ever is kevin conroy's, but he wont be playing a bat on a real movie sooo... its good to have him on videogames and cartoons...

  • yes mistermeddle... i agree totally with you!

  • fuuuuuck i havent seen this since i was 8 fkn yrs old ='].......this is the shit lil kidz these days have some sorry ass modafukin cartoons!!!

  • @LoGiClY2SiCk I know what you mean. The newest one, Batman the brave and the bold is horrible.

  • @LoGiClY2SiCk no shit

  • @LoGiClY2SiCk Some critics have even remarked that this film was superior even to the actual films themselves in terms of story.

  • @LoGiClY2SiCk the thing is all these comity studies say that these kids are suppose to like them teen superheros that go to high school and are cool........................ wtf are they thinking.... i mean have you ever seen x-men evolution omg......... what a load of garbage. kids are not stupid, if they re-release these shows put them back on prime-time guaranteed instant hits again. i mean even the artwork on this show is amazing for a cartoon,

  • @Baseshocks hay bat man beyond was decent and he went to school dont lump him in with xmen evolution

  • i have that movie but i want batman movie or episode vs two face can someone help me with that please?

  • y would u not put the last part

  • Kevin Conroy is Batman he has the voice down to a T

  • Bales voice in Batman Begins was better than TDK but both still are really good.

  • the dark knight was overrated and why would you even compare it to a cartoon?

  • The two greatest animated films (I'm talking about traditional animation, not 3D) are this movie and "The Iron Giant". What I love about them is that they are treated like live action movies, and aren't toned down simply because they're animated.

  • @SonicThunderBYG Oh I loved The Iron Giant. One of the best animated movies ever.

  • oh Darn I forgot Batman Returns Well Batman returns would be placed after Batman(1989) for me.

    Yeah I'm a huge fan. I've seen all the Batman films. Batman's my favorite.

  • My favorite Batman Movies in order are

    The Dark Knight,Batman Begins,Batman The Mask of Phantasm,Batman(1989),and Batman under The Red Hood.

    *Lets just pretend that Batman Forever and Batman & Robin don't exists. BUT remember without Batman & Robin there would be No Batman Begins reboot and without begins there's no Dark Knight.

    p.s. Batman(1966)-you watch for the lols which is nice once in a while.

  • @09tranm Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. Maybe? Yes? No? I thought that was a good batman movie, imo of course

  • @Deadeye287 Oh yeah that was pretty good in my opinion. Not as good as mask of phantasm though but yeah it was good. Batman under the redhood was good too.

  • there's something money can't like your good old childhood :)

  • You are the model of sanity, by the way I have pressed your tights and put away your exploding gas balls.

  • I loved this movie when I was like 4 yrs old! 14 yrs later I still love it!

  • Best Batman Movie in the world- Very nice movie i watched it when i was maybe 7 years old ( sorry for my english i'm don't speak it very welll :) ) you can look bruce wayne with andrea his love of his life that is very nice movie ( we can with this movie understand why he never had a girlfirend )

  • From the Animated films this one and Batman Under The Red Hood, are definitely the Gold Statues of animated films.

  • From the Animated films this one and Batman Under The Red Hood, are definitely the Gold Statues of animated films

  • i love this opening

  • This was definitely better thant TDK. I mean no disrespect to Heath Ledger's acting skills but alth
