Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information

    Batman

    It's unusual for a live-action motion picture to be directed by more than one person, but in animated films, it's not at all uncommon to see more than one credited director. How many people are credited with having directed 'Batman: Mask of the Phantasm'?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      2 . Eric Radomski and Bruce W. Timm, both contributors to the 'Batman' animated TV series, directed 'Batman: MOTP.'

    Who speaks the first line in the film?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Chuckie Sol. The film opens on Chuckie Sol and his henchmen. Chuckie's first line is, 'This has been a long time comin',' in reference to a major counterfeiting scheme he and his gang have been putting together for some time. I've always interpreted that line as having a double meaning as well, in that the first animated Batman film was also "a long time in coming"!

    When we first see Andrea Beaumont, she is on an airplane, looking at a magazine featuring Bruce Wayne on the cover. What magazine is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Fortune. The article is entitled, 'Bruce Wayne: One of the Wealthiest Entrepeneurs in Gotham.'

    In one of the many flashbacks in the movie, we see the first time that young Bruce Wayne met Andrea Beaumont. Where did they meet?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      a cemetery. As Bruce was paying his respects at his parents' grave, he overheard Andrea talking to her mother's headstone, and approached her.

    During that same flashback chronicling Bruce's escapade atop the thieves' getaway car, he is spotted by a uniformed officer (in a squad car) who will later become a significant member of the Gotham City Police Department. Who is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Harvey Bullock. Detective Bullock is very anti-Batman in the animated series (and, appropriately, in 'Batman: Mask of the Phantasm'), but in the comics, he's more of an ally. It was kind of funny to see him as a donut-scarfing patrolman in the flashback.

    The first time Andrea visits Bruce at his home, he is out on the front lawn, conducting a martial arts workout. Which martial art is he practicing?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      jiu-jitsu. Andrea asks Bruce what he's doing; he responds with, 'Jiu-jitsu,' and shows off a little.

    The Phantasm's imminent victims -- all of them mobsters -- always hear a certain sentence before they die. What is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      'Your angel of death awaits.'. The Phantasm says this to all four of the men whose heads are on the chopping block -- Chuckie Sol, Buzz Bronski, Salvatore Valestra, and the Joker.

    At one point in the film, we see Batman exhibit a rather useful skill. What is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      the ability to read lips. Batman spies on Andrea Beaumont and Arthur Reeves as they dine in a restaurant across the street from his rain-soaked surveillance spot. With a pair of high-powered binoculars, he is able to discern every word they say.

    Just as Andrea accepts Bruce's proposal of marriage, something rather ominous happens. What is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      A flock of bats pours out of a fissure in the ground. Perhaps a bit much, but I appreciated the symbolism -- Bruce's mission will not allow him a "conventional" life.

    Just moments before Alfred presents Bruce with a disturbing letter from Andrea, a fairly momentous event takes place. What is it?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Bruce discovers the caves beneath Wayne Manor. Bruce crawls out from a huge hole in the ground ('I found another cave -- it might be as big as the whole house!') to find Alfred bearing the 'Dear John' letter from Andrea.

    Andrea left the United States with her father, and remained an expatriate of sorts for many years. Where did she and her father go?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Europe. Andrea mentions that she and her father eventually settled on the Mediterranean coast.

    Yet another flashback depicts the first time that Bruce donned the Batman costume. Alfred Pennyworth, his trusted butler, is the first person to see Bruce decked out in full Batman regalia. What does Alfred say upon witnessing this momentous event?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      My god. Alfred looks and sounds positively terrified -- which is kind of the point of Bruce's dressing up like a bat in the first place, one assumes.

    In a rather bizarre sequence, we see that the Joker has set up residence in the 'House of the Future' exhibit at the abandoned Gotham World's Fair, complete with a robotic 'wife' and 'dog.' What is the name of the dog?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Rusty. At one point, the Joker kicks the dog, which is covered in -- you guessed it -- rust spots. Hazel is the name of his robotic 'wife.'

    The Joker peppers his vocabulary with words from languages other than English. Which language does he NOT utilize in 'Batman: Mask of the Phantasm'?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      German. Joker says to Sal Valestra, 'Mi casa nostra es su casa nostra,' incoporating both the familiar Spanish adage 'Mi casa es su casa' ('My home is your home') and the Italian phrase 'cosa nostra', a Mafia reference meaning, literally, 'our thing.' (He also refers to Sal as his 'paisan,' or 'friend.') In that same conversation, he uses the French word 'certainmente' instead of 'certainly.' He never speaks a word of German in the film.

    In a rather intense sequence, Batman is hunted down and cornered by the full might of the Gotham City Police Department. Who comes to his rescue and saves him from being captured and unmasked?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Andrea Beaumont. Andrea's timely arrival saves Bruce from the misplaced wrath of the GCPD.

    Who is the first person in the film to say the word 'Phantasm'?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      No one ever says this word in the film. Even though the name of the character is part of the movie's title -- and we're clearly meant to attach that name to the ghostly, brutal figure committing the mob murders throughout the film -- no one ever refers to the character as The Phantasm.

    Which vehicle do we NOT see Batman utilizing in the film?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      He utilizes all of these vehicles (the Batplane, the Batcycle, the Batmobile). Batman uses the Batplane just before being ambushed by the GCPD; he is very briefly seen driving the Batmobile after Bullock and Reeves try to contact him via the Bat-signal; and he drives the Batcycle to the final confrontation at the Gotham World's Fair.

    Late in the film, the Joker attempts to use a rocket-powered backpack to escape the final battle. Batman, however, leaps atop his enemy's back, and it's clear that the rocket pack can't manage their combined weight. As they start to plummet toward the ground, the Joker says, 'Let me go, or we'll both die!' What is Batman's characteristically steely response?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Whatever it takes . Pretty determined, our boy Bruce.

    Who speaks the last line in the film?Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

      Andrea Beaumont. Andrea, having miraculously survived the final battle, is shown on an ocean liner, bound for parts unknown. A fellow passenger tries to approach her, but he is immediately struck by her icy mood. 'I'm sorry,' he says. 'Do you want to be alone?' Her morose reply: 'I am.' These are the last words spoken in the movie.

    What are the first words spoken in the movie?Batman and Robin

      "I want a car. Chicks dig the car."- Robin. Robin: 'I want a car. Chicks dig the car.' Batman: 'This is why Superman works alone.' Alfred: 'Do try to bring this one back in one piece sir.' Robin: 'Don't wait up Al.' Alfred: 'I'll cancel the pizzas.' This is the whole opening conversation.

    What is the name of Robin's motorcycle?Batman and Robin

      Redbird. 'Redbird control codes.'- Batman. He shuts of the engine during a chase with Mr. Freeze.

    Victor Fries becomes Mr. Freeze by falling into a freezing liquid, true or false?Batman and Robin

      t. While watching a tape of Victor Fries working, Bruce says 'That liquid is fifty below.' Now that is some pretty cold liquid.

    Where does Pamela Isley become Poison Ivy?Batman and Robin

      South America. Her boss pushes her into tables of chemicals that fill her veins with aloe, her skin with chlorophyl, and her lips with venom.

    How many times does Robin/Dick skid out on his motorcycle?Batman and Robin

      3. Robin skids out twice on the Redbird, once when we first meet Freeze, and again when Batman disables the engine. Then Dick skids out, and loses his bike, at the motorcycle race.

    Which wrestler had a small role in the movie?Batman and Robin

      Jessie Ventura. He plays one of the security guards in Freeze's cell.

    Does Coolio have a role in the movie?Batman and Robin

      Yes. He plays Banker. Banker is the guy at the motorcycle races who holds the money.

    Whose costumes are in the Criminal Property Locker?Batman and Robin

      Riddler and Two-Face. They're hanging right in front.

    What is the password Barbara uses to access the info on the disk for Wilfred?Batman and Robin

      Peg. She uses them all, but Peg is the one that works. Peg was Alfred's nickname for Magarett, Barbara's mother.

    Who says the last words in the movie?Batman and Robin

      Alfred. "We're going to need a bigger cave."

    'I made you, you made me first.' Who said it?'Batman' Quotes
