Batman: Mask of the Phantasm	comment	Mask of the Phantasm is the first movie of Batman: The Animated Series. Of the various films based on the DC Animated Universe, it is the only one to have been given a cinematic wide release. It was released to theaters on Christmas Day 1993.As Batman continues his war on Gotham City's underworld, he discovers a new foe who wants to take that war to a whole new level: the Phantasm, a mysterious masked figure who has killed off several of Gotham's high-profile mob bosses. The Phantasm has a similar appearance to Batman and targets criminals like Batman does, which leads the police to blame The Caped Crusader for the killings. As the police try to stop him, Batman tries to clear his name—and tries to stop the Phantasm before another murder happens.The film also follows Bruce Wayne's past and present relationship with love interest Andrea Beaumont, and shows Bruce's first attempts at vigilantism before truly becoming The Batman.The film was followed by the direct-to-video films Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero and Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman.Dana Delany was the voice of Andrea Beaumont. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill reprise their roles as Batman and The Joker from Batman: The Animated Series. Stacy Keach supplies the voice of Andrea Beaumont's father Carl Beaumont, and also the Phantasm.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_141f6a73	comment	Artistic License â€“ Martial Arts: Andrea walks in on a young Bruce Wayne practicing Jiu-Jitsu...or what he claims is Jiu-Jitsu, at least. While Jiu-Jitsu does have strikes, it is primarily a grappling art that is normally practiced with two people, and Bruce is exclusively seen performing kicks, punches and blocks by himself, which makes it more likely that he is practicing something like Karate instead. When Andrea throws him with a move from her self-defence class, that seems closer to Jiu-Jitsu than what he is doing.

This film, made as a theatrical release, had no such censorship limitations, and so we see a fair bit of blood as well as seeing the Phantasm straight-up murder people. We also see a grinning corpse used for a scare effect, the first time the DCAU Joker was allowed to explicitly kill someone onscreen.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_2484396e	comment	Arthur Reeves. And that's putting it mildly. He's a Know-Nothing Know-It-All who prioritizes Batman's capture rather than the real crime plaguing Gotham based on adamantly believing he is the one responsible for the mobster deaths. Not only that, it is revealed Reeves was the one directly responsible for ruining Andrea's life by selling out her and her father to the mob, leading to her Start of Darkness. This can be seen almost immediately at the party where Arthur goes out of his way to bring up Andrea to Bruce before she arrives and pretends like he barely remembers who she is, despite being on the phone with her in the previous scene.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: During a flashback, a bat is briefly seen outside Bruce's window and flies away. However, Bruce doesn't see it, as he was preoccupied with designing his new vigilante costume. In the comics, the original reason he chose the form of a bat was because one crashed through his study window and Bruce recalled the sudden fear he had; later versions had him falling into the bat cave as a child and being startled by a swarm of bats. The movie does its own version of events as Bruce and Andrea are walking the Wayne Manor grounds at sunset and a swarm of bats emerge from a nearby crevice (also leading him to explore the cave later on). Joker was partially responsible for the origin of Batman, like in the 1989 movie.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_2d363f63	type	Frame-Up
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_2d363f63	comment	Frame-Up: Played with. Batman is mistaken for the Phantasm due to their similarly shadowy looks and is blamed for the Valestra murders. The reveal, however, is that Andrea was not trying to pin the blame for the murders on Batman. She was instead trying to pin the blame on her dead father as a precaution just in case somebody put together the pieces and linked the Beaumonts to the killings. An interesting variation also occurs when Joker bombs Valestra's home to try and kill the Phantasm. The explosion gets Batman's attention and he deploys to find Phantasm fleeing the arson. Since Bruce has no idea Joker is involved at this point in the film, he concludes Phantasm is responsible for Valestra's murder. Then, when the GCPD sights Batman in the vicinity, Phantasm scrams and the cops (who missed the assassin) think Batman's responsible. In other words, Joker indirectly and unwittingly frames both Batman and Phantasm for Valestra's death.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_30ed4f7d	comment	Sleazy Politician: Councilman Arthur Reeves starts out as a typical anti-Batman crusader (who is also friends with Bruce Wayne), but it turns out he used to work for Andrea's father—helping embezzle money for organized crime (although he claims he didn't know what Beaumont was up to until afterwards). When they came demanding their cut, it was tied up in investments that couldn't be freed up within their time limit, so the Beaumonts went on the run. He eventually gave them everything he promised, but they never forgave him for not paying on their deadline. When Reeves first ran for office, he ran out of money and asked Andrea's father for a loan, only to be rejected. So Reeves sold him to the mob. He does claim that the mob told him they only wanted their money back, and in conversation with Andrea seems to honestly believe that Carl Beaumont is still alive, so possibly his biggest crime is gullibility.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_32da548d	comment	As Bruce leaves Andrea at her house, he briefly glances at the hitman standing by the door and his eyes are filled with a sense of subconscious anger and hatred only seen in the future Batman. That's because the hitman will become the Joker, Batman's greatest and most hated Arch-Enemy of his Rogues Gallery. In the preceding scene before Bruce proposes, Andrea also mentions that her father has some business in Europe next week. He wants her to come along, but he's been very hush-hush about the whole thing and hasn't even said when they'd be coming back to Gotham. With the later flashbacks and reveals, the implication here on the re-watch is that Carl knew that Valestra either had discovered, or was close to discovering, his embezzling and was already preparing to flee Gotham.

In stark contrast to most cartoons, when Batman takes a blow that leaves him bleeding and disoriented, he is still suffering from it later in the movie, and he is forced to spend a night off to heal from it correctly. One man against four precincts of cops, a SWAT team, and a police chopper isnâ€™t really going to be able to evade them easily. Itâ€™s only thanks to the timely arrival of Andrea that Bruce isnâ€™t either captured or killed. Carl Beaumont's inability to pay off Valestra within the 24 hour window he's given. Many wealthy people are actually cash poor and have all their money tied up in equities and investments. Liquidating these assets cannot be done overnight and takes days and weeks to legally execute.

They are both in the middle of a large, open area, yet somehow after being surrounded by the smoke, they are both almost immediately gone. The movie never explains how the Phantasm is able to do any of this, aside from the Bat-computer's analysis that the smoke is some sort of Applied Phlebotinum (a complex molecular polymer of some sort).

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_60194b82	comment	Spanner in the Works: The Joker ends up being one to one of the Phantasm's plans. Andrea's backup plan in case anyone connected the Valestra mob murders to the Beaumont family was to frame her late father for being the Phantasm, as no one outside of the Valestra gang knew of his death. Unfortunately, the Joker was the one who killed Carl, and so when he makes the connection and finds out through his interrogation of Arthur Reeves that Andrea just so happens to be back in Gotham, he pieces together that she must be the Phantasm.

The end of the film has Batman responding to the Bat-Signal, implying that somehow the cops discovered he didn't do it. (Sal's grinning corpse was probably a big clue, or would be if it hadn't been blown to pieces.) Whether Arthur Reeves or the Joker survive through the end is never shown in the movie itself, though the latter does make several DCAU appearances following the movie. The former was eventually brought back in the DCAU comics, though he is eventually killed by Andrea after learning her and Bruce's identities.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_871cff0c	comment	Create Your Own Hero: An interesting variation with Sal Valestra, his Mob associates, and Batman. They obviously had no involvement in the Wayne murders — and Bruce was already embarking upon The Plan long before his chance meeting with Andrea. But by trying to reclaim the money Carl Beaumont stole from them and forcing him and his daughter to flee the country, Valestra and company unwittingly remove the last barrier that was preventing Bruce from fully committing to a future as Batman.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_916c72b3	comment	Rule of Symbolism: Just after Bruce proposes to Andrea, a huge torrent of bats comes flying out of a crack in the ground, representing the shadow of Batman in Bruce's future. The World of the Future amusement park is a metaphor for Bruce's own future. When he and Andrea visit it, it's bright, shining, and hopeful. In the present day, however, the park has become decayed, rotted, and unforgiving—and haunted by the insane clown that dominates both of their lives. And the second Andrea refuses Batman's Last-Second Chance by stating that she intends to break his one rule, the place explodes into utter chaos. Alfred mentions how Bruce walks the "edge of that abyss every night", referring to Bruce's potential to fall into the role of He Who Fights Monsters. As Alfred says this, the camera pans out over the nearby chasm in the Batcave, showcasing the darkness that lurks beneath them. When Alfred follows up by saying that Bruce has never fallen in, the camera cuts back to them, the danger no longer visible.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: Loads of it: Andrea took self-defense classes and can take Bruce on. Sharp eyes will notice during the rooftop fight that the Phantasm does the same throw on Bats that she did on Bruce. This, incidentally, is also another subtle clue that Carl Beaumont physically can't be the Phantasm. In the flashbacks, Carl's already a middle-aged man (and while he seems to be in decent shape for his age, there are also no signs he's athletic or combat proficient like his daughter). Even if Carl has maintained his health and body in the decade since the Beaumonts fled Gotham, we're really expected to believe that a man now in his Sixties is performing the Phantasm's incredible feats of agility? That he can now actually evade and fight the Batman himself hand to hand and hold his own? It strains the suspension of disbelief to the breaking point, and had Bruce been on his game and not distracted by Andrea, he likely would've realized this implausibility too. Andrea telling Bruce that her father "doesn't matter anymore." Bruce thinks this is because he was told Andrea's father is the Phantasm, but it is because Beaumont is already dead and Andrea herself is wearing the costume. As Bruce leaves Andrea at her house, he briefly glances at the hitman standing by the door and his eyes are filled with a sense of subconscious anger and hatred only seen in the future Batman. That's because the hitman will become the Joker, Batman's greatest and most hated Arch-Enemy of his Rogues Gallery. In the preceding scene before Bruce proposes, Andrea also mentions that her father has some business in Europe next week. He wants her to come along, but he's been very hush-hush about the whole thing and hasn't even said when they'd be coming back to Gotham. With the later flashbacks and reveals, the implication here on the re-watch is that Carl knew that Valestra either had discovered, or was close to discovering, his embezzling and was already preparing to flee Gotham. The Joker confronting Reeves in his office hints that they know a good deal about the Beaumonts. The Joker puts the pieces together about the Phantasm's identity in this scene and later tries to kill Andrea with a booby trap phone call (it's Batman who's caught in the trap, but the Joker calling his intended target "toots" and "boopsie" suggests who the trap was really for). The reason he does not suspect Andrea's father is also foreshadowed in all of this—because Joker was the one to kill him all those years ago. Batman is the one who picks up the phone, and likely realizes the Phantasm isn't Andrea's father and she is still keeping something from him. Downplayed, but Reeves having gone from one of Carl Beaumont's rising attorneys to a Gotham Councilman in the last decade. Even with how lucrative a legal career can be, funding a political campaign ain't cheap. Reeves got part of the money from selling out his boss to Valestra. Adding to the above foreshadowing, there's also the car scene between Arthur and Valestra when the latter tries to get his help again Batman. It shows the two men know each other well and have had past dealings. But as the earlier flashback shows, Valestra's interactions were with Beaumont himself and not his staff (and even if Valestra and Arthur had met during that time period, there's clearly more than a passing acquaintance at work here). This sets up the reveal that Arthur sold out Beaumont to Valestra in orders to fund his first political campaign.

Both times, the camera pans away to a slightly ajar doorway, in which Alfred appears, mutters a quick "Oh my," and moves away. But subverted the first time, as the camera pans to them making out on the grass. The second time, however, it is made clear exactly what went on offscreen, especially in the scene afterwards, which shows Andrea sitting on the balcony gazing at the sea, wearing nothing but Bruce's shirt. Bruce himself is seen wearing nothing but pants.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_a4c37cbe	comment	Mood Whiplash: A slight version occurs when Sal Valestra tries to convince the Joker to take out Batman. Initially, The Joker pokes fun at the old man and seems uncaring about his plight the entire time until Sal grabs him by the lapels. Immediately following that, Joker shifts gears to assure Sal that no harm will come to him on his watch. Then we find out he's murdered the old guy and propped him up in a chair to lure the Phantasm into a trap. Later on, when the Phantasm shows up to get Valestra but instead finds a corpse with a camera set up by the Joker, this trope is fully reinstated: When the Joker is meeting with Arthur Reeves, he goes from intimidating, to nonchalant, to full-on psychopathic in about two and a half minutes.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_ab5eea65	comment	Dramatic Irony: Reeves tries to tell the Joker that he's not in league with the Phantasm, when suddenly Andrea gives him a call. The Joker, who now realizes Andrea is the Phantasm, now has a reason to infect Reeves with his toxin. Sal enlists the Joker to stop the Phantasm's murder spree. The Joker actually more or less assists her in her quest for revenge, murdering Sal and then lethally attacking Arthur, a person the Phantasm might not even be aware was a part of her father's murder. Adding further irony, the only reason Sal went to the Joker is because Arthur refused to help him, since he didn't need him anymore. Batman, the world's greatest detective, is on the case to find out who's murdering these gangsters. The cops, believing Batman himself is behind it, are also investigating. Who figures out the killer first? The Joker, chiefly because he knows firsthand it couldn't be Carl Beaumont. When the Phantasm confronts Joker, the Joker admits his surprise that the Phantasm survived his bombing the hotel room, noting the Phantasm is "harder to kill than a cockroach on steroids". In reality, Andrea was already at the park and it was Batman who destroyed the bomb.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_acf33d00	comment	Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Joker's gleeful monologuing after killing Valestra and setting a trap for Batman, only to discover it's really the Phantasm. If he had just hit the bomb detonator instead of being vain and talkative, he could've killed the Phantasm right then and there. Instead, he gave Phantasm just (barely) enough time to get clear of the blast radius. Joker's attack on Reeves at his office. Despite Arthur's history with the Beaumonts, Bruce has no reason up to that point to suspect Reeves has any involvement in the Phantasm's murders. Having just discovered Joker was Valestra's enforcer immediately prior to the attack, however, Bruce correctly concludes that Joker thinks Arthur is involved — and Bruce wants to know why. The subsequent interrogation of Reeves at the hospital is key to cracking the case open, as Bruce learns Reeves betrayed Carl Beaumont to Valestra...and knowing how the Gotham Mob operates, it means Carl's likely dead and that also means Andrea lied to Bruce again about her father. Joker bombing Andrea's apartment in the very next scene also counts. He thinks it's Andrea he's attacking and referring to the Phantasm as Boopsie and Toots confirms for Bruce that it is Andrea in the costume, not her father. The usage of the World of the Future plane as the 'flying bomber' also tells Bruce where Joker's hiding (as he damm well recognizes where it came from thanks to his and Andrea's visit in the flashbacks).

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_ad1db87c	comment	Oh, Crap!: Bruce gets one when examining a group photo of Sal Valestra's old gang. One of the men looks familiar. With a red pen, he draws a grin and... Arthur when he realizes the Joker is in his office. Reeves also gets a mild one when Joker reveals Batman isn't the killer. He was so quick to launch his smear campaign that he never anticipated Bats might actually be innocent. Even with how dire his situation is (i.e. having the Joker in his office), it's not hard to imagine Reeves as a politician can't help recalculating then and there how this affects his political fortunes (assuming he survives Joker, of course). Also when the Joker insinuates that Arthur hired the Phantasm to kill the mobsters, since he wouldn't want anyone to know of his past dealings with them. Once more, when Batman breaks into Arthur's hospital room to interrogate him, after he is injected with Joker toxin: Then Joker when the Phantasm looms over him after his jetpack crash. This is likely the Phantasm's reaction on finding out the Joker has laid a booby trap on Sal Valestra's body (originally intended for Batman), though we can't see the accompanying facial expression behind the mask.

By the end of the movie, Batman and the audience have a clear picture of the Phantasm's actions, but Batman is left with no culprit and no evidence he can present in his defense. The movie doesn't address how he clears his name, but the novelisation adds a subplot about an amateur photographer who accidentally gets a clear shot of the Phantasm in action.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Bruce taking out a motorcyclist on foot is a direct reference to AKIRA. When Batman is washed down the sewer near the end of the movie, the sequence of shots is the same as Lupin being washed down an aqueduct in The Castle of Cagliostro. Batman's escape from the police through a construction zone is similar to a scene with a condemned building in Batman: Year One. By Word of God, it was lifted from the similar scene in RoboCop (1987). Joker tries to escape on a jet pack similar to the one James Bond used in the beginning of Thunderball. The end scene is almost identical to that of the 1989 Batman: Batman standing on a rooftop, looking at the Bat-signal. It's just that both are never fully in frame at one time. Alfred's line about vengeance and the abyss is very similar to Friedrich Nietzsche's quote about becoming that which you fight against.note "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." The lyrics of the chorus singing the Batman theme are the names of the production crew backward. It's elaborated on in Ominous Latin Chanting. The World's Fair is clearly inspired by the Futurama exhibit at the 1939 and 1964 World's Fair. The rotor-driven flying cars are probably from the 1930's musical Just Imagine. The famous WB shield logo pops up on a ruin at the amusement park, for no reason.

The Phantasm is a combination of the Reaper, a masked vigilante in that story, and Rachael, the love interest. The Reaper was Judson Caspian, Rachael's father, but in the film, the Phantasm turns out to be Andrea, Bruce's love interest. In addition, the Phantasm has a few similarities with Azrael, who debuted in the comics more than a year prior to this film's release. Phantasm's mask resembles Azrael's more so than Reaper's (though keeping some of the skull motifs of the latter's mask) and interestingly the Phantasm self-describes as an "Angel of Death," a title which is also associated with Azrael.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_eb8ec7c8	type	Jerkass
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm / int_eb8ec7c8	comment	Jerkass: Arthur Reeves. And that's putting it mildly. He's a Know-Nothing Know-It-All who prioritizes Batman's capture rather than the real crime plaguing Gotham based on adamantly believing he is the one responsible for the mobster deaths. Not only that, it is revealed Reeves was the one directly responsible for ruining Andrea's life by selling out her and her father to the mob, leading to her Start of Darkness. This can be seen almost immediately at the party where Arthur goes out of his way to bring up Andrea to Bruce before she arrives and pretends like he barely remembers who she is, despite being on the phone with her in the previous scene. Also the mob hitman who turned into the Joker. He's rude to Andrea, and throws a lit cigarette at Bruce as he's driving away. Buzz's response to his old pal Chucky's death was to say he was always a loser.

In the film, however, Andrea's father Carl Beaumont isn't the Phantasm as he is initially suspected to be; rather, Andrea herself is the Phantasm.

He didn't find out what had happened until after Carl and Andrea had fled the country. While Joker mockingly corroborates Arthur's defense, it's still left ambiguous if Reeves genuinely didn't know or if he was turning a blind eye.
