@Pavith Salinda Batman Ninja is a far newer movie, without an accompanying tv series. I bet in five to ten years will the children and young people who love that movie interact with the internet in a meaningful way. This is the core of the movie’s fanbase.
Am I crazy or does Dracula’s design bear a striking resemblance to Ra’s Al Ghul?! Like turn that cape to a green color and it’s uncanny It would make sense in a weird way since Ra’s never showed up in The Batman but he has such a big presence in the Batman mythos that I could DEFINITELY see him starting as the focal point to his very own movie, and maybe some early changes turned it into what it is now, and they kept that design cause JUST LOOK AT HIM!!
i mean to be fair, it could be that a lot of people just straight up have never heard of it. when the show was airing for the first time they gave it like, the worst hours possible, like i'm talking the 12-4 am block.
@@Vamroc It's kinda impossible to do Red Rain properly in a kid-oriented adaptation to begin with though. Even this movie already got bumped up in the age rating compared to the actual series.
@@Vamroc what? The story was completely different from red rain. It does it own thing with the vampire stuff. Besides the third entry to the trilogy was completely unnecessary.
I remember being so shocked as a kid when Bruce wrote Alucard on a plate, and held it in front of a mirror and it read Dracula. So f-cking cool, just thinking about it makes me so nostalgic about the film and also the series
And at that moment, the name Alucard for me remains associated with that one exact scene. Nothing can change that I am a '98 born, and neither Castlevania nor Hellsing were within my circle of interest at the time this movie was out. So don't be surprised when anyone asked me questions involving Alucard I'd ask back if it's about this movie
Dude the way you described it as “two mythological figures fighting for dominance” was PERFECT! That’s exactly how I’ve always felt about this movie. I always liked how Dracula was kind of impressed by Batman and pitied him almost, then Batman comes back and proves he’s the bigger legend.
Probably because Bruce’s relationships with Selina and Talia were already big parts of the series and with Andrea also added to the mix with Mask Of The Phantasm I think adding another love interest character would’ve gotten annoying
I think having Vicki would’ve destroyed Bruce’s arc as well if you ask me. The whole Arc for Bruce in the DCAU is he eventually pushes everybody away as his depression gets worse and worse until he’s a decrepit old man in his 90’s on the verge of pushing Terry away as well. Having Vicki would’ve kinda diminished that as she’s pretty much one of the only women in the comics he can have a healthy relationship with which wasn’t what the DCAU Batman was about it was more about how he was toxic and ruined the lives of everybody he had a long enough relationship with
There was another reporter in the show called "Summer Gleeson" who was basically Vicki Vale with a different name. Maybe they didn't want to use Vicki Vale's name because she was in Tim Burton's Batman and audiences would have expected her to have a bigger role in the series?
I have read the comments and realized something What if Vicki just Wasn't in a relationship with Bruce for some of the appearances. There are female batman continuity characters Bruce hasn't had a relationship with.
A young demonologist accidentally summons freakin' Beelzebub, and has to team up with the one superhero equipped to battle the Lord of Flies... Yeah, I'd watch that. Bonus points for Peter complaining that Princes of Hell are way beyond his pay grade.
@@micracerberus2335 Ironically, I'm coming up with a story concept that make a reference about the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse and what they represent historically. Beelzebub representing Pestilence, The Greek God Ares representing War, The Original Sin of Gluttony representing Famine, and the son of The Grim Reaper representing Death.
@Gold Bond Ultimate Hydrating Lotion Yeah I definitely recognize that point of view. The odd thing is that most modern creators try to make the main character and world as serious as possible. Batman is not heartless. So neither should everything else.
Under the Red Hood was the first time I ever really understood how hard it would be to be Batman. I love The Dark Knight trilogy, but that scene at the end of the movie is probably the most emotionally intense Batman scene, and it makes me tear up
Let me tell you a story... I’m 7 yrs old and it’s dark outside, we were on a road trip with my cousin and we needed entertainment whilst in a car. My cousins parents had one of those cars with a TV. So they put on a movie. That movie was Batman vs Dracula, I was scared out of my mind when I finished it. After the trip I went home and when I watched tv in boomerang I heard one thing. It was a whisper quiet but chilling and loud, The Batman. I realized that the show was connected to the movie by the designs and realized that this was my Batman. So yeah after watching your first video I’m happy that someone also loves this show.
This movies is also based on a storyline that isn't considered part of the mainstream DC canon, with the original emding being that Batman becomes a vampire. Similarly, Dracula is also used as a recurring villain in the mainstream Marvel canon, meaning Dracula is technically a Marvel villain *and* DC villain. Altough that's the perks of Dracula being public domain; even something like DOAWK could use Dracula with no legal issue.
@@SwayzOGRenzO When everything went from bat to worst was in 1966 when Dell (original comic book home of Uncle Scrooge, Bugs Bunny, Barbie & Ken, etc) made a comic where Dracula was a costumed superhero who got his powers from drinking a serum made from bats' brains!!!
The moody 70's Batman era was inspired by the Hammer and other studios horror movies during the time, and Ra's was inspired, partly on Christopher Lee's Dracula and Fu Man Chu
@@RazorusR3X777 so in the early 2000s DC had this weird thing where they didn't want multiple different versions of ghe same character appearing in different media because it would supposedly confuse audiences. Because of that shows like Justice league unlimited were not allowed to use characters like nightwing , Batgirl or any major batman villains besides small ones like deadshot becauss there were being used in The Batman at the time. Similarly The Batman couldnt use characters appearing in the dark knight series mainly the first 2. Robin didnt appear in the show until its last seasons due to him appearing in teen titans as well. Basically unless you were the bat himself a character could only be in one show at a time. Was a bunch of garbo....
Well funny you say that. This was originally meant to be a Ra's Al Ghul design, but Bat Embargo wouldn't allow a lot of his characters to appear. So they took the design and reimagined to fit for Dracula
@@thefanwithoutaface8105 someone forgot the mountain chase scene it seems.

I remember being terrified by this movie, the whole dark atmosphere was heavy, but interesting. I love how the film ends up relating the figures of Batman and Dracula, like two versions of a myth that has been updated through time, just like Hercules and Superman. Great video, as always, loved it! XD
I remember watching this when was like 11 year old and Dracula at one point says "I'm Alucard". Later Bruce Wayne writes Alucard on a silver platter, holds the platter in front of a mirror and it says Dracula and that's how he finds out. As a kid my mind exploded because i was like "oh my god, Batman is so freaking smart". But now i'm like "Wow that was really easy to figure out".
I didn't even know of the series when I saw the movie and I liked it just fine! Every time you see a superhero these days he's been changed around -- heck, now sometimes *he* becomes a *she!* -- so it didn't seem odd to me at all...
I remember having nightmares and being so terrified of Vampires as a kid I grew a fear of vampires and I am very sensitive near my neck now, this movie really left a impact on me as a kid.
To put it short, Bill Finger created the concept of Batman and the suit, with the help of Bill Finger. Bob Kane disregarded his friend by taking the spotlight instead of Bill saying that he alone created batman until his biography later down in his life. Bill Finger, who created our heroes Batman and Green Lantern, died alone with no money and no royalties until BvS where it finally showed his name. While Bob flourished in Batmania and from the riches. I recommend watching a movie called "Batman and Bill", itll explain more then what I could possibly think now
I'd argue that Batman wasn't the most powerful, as Dracula was easily wayyy faster and stronger, but Batman was easily the most intelligent and most resourceful. Dracula's weakness, apart from sunlight, was his hubris, as no one had defeated him before now.
@@ElSorprendentePurpLes I wasn't scared at all. I was 6 when it saw it in 2005. How about you? Did you grow up with the dark knight trilogy back in 2005 -2012?
Man the SWAT team get taken 1 by 1 and that upside down Dracula at the end scared the shit out of me as a kid. Literally check every dark corner I encounter to see if Drac is there or not lol.
Bro holy shit could you imagine an Interstellar Ranger Commence panel at SDCC? That sounds so crazy I almost teared up lmao, thank you for picking my question, had bad wording but at the end you kind of got what I was aiming for lol
It gets me mad how underrated this movie (and series) is, it deserves better, especially because of that mind-blowing animation like this 4:49 or this 6:41
Okay, thank God. This movie kicked ass, it was a perfect movie for childhood me. Character design was awesome, gothic, creepy, score were great, action was great. I just love it for the vibe, it screams nostaglia. The title sequel with the wonderful classic tune...my God
and here I am waiting for a Justice League/Transformers crossover comic. (They planned to publish it until the new 52 shelved the plan for the comic crossover to happen. I wanted the batmobile and wonder woman's invisible plane to be Autobots in disguise so bad)
I haven't even watched this yet, but I have to thank you for this. First it was Spectacular Spider-Man, now The Batman, you're the first person I've ever heard talk nicely about The Batman and its exactly the nostalgia infused positivity I need right now. Thank you for what you do :)
I remember watching this with a babysitter when I was a child and was terrified. I tried rewatching it again when I was 12 and was still uncomfortable. I just fully watched it for the first time. I’m glad someone is talking about it
I love that this version Batman really knows how to fight hand to hand. Some Batman versions mostly rely on his tech/devices to win however this version relies more on his combat skills which makes me compare him to the Batman vs TMNT in terms of hand to hand combat skill. The villains on this show can also somewhat face him hand to hand and relies less on their goons to fight him unlike other version of those villains.
@@isaiahyinko7182 not just dark knight trilogy, but 90's batman movies and both Batman animated series as well 90's and 2004. i had the movies on repeat😁
I've watched this one several times. I agree that no one talks about it though, which is a pity. I guess it just got lost in the vast sea of great Batman stories.
Personally I really like this film. It was willing to walk the line between being a kids film and being made for an older audience. For example, the scene with the vampire joker in the blood bank is done in a way that it can avoid censorship but you still get the effect. It’s terrifying, disgusting, creepy, and just with Joker would do if he became a vampire. Also I think this film, like most of the series, does the “Batman can beat anyone” cliché right. When Batman comes across an enemy he’s not familiar with he’ll usually end up getting his butt kicked. It reminds us that he’s human. But then he researches the threat and plans out a way to defeat the enemy and then does. To me, beat your enemies by out thinking them is what Batman is all about. And if that means Batman has to suffer a loss every now and again, so be it. It’ll just make him look that much cooler when he does defeat them!
Loved this. Loved the series, and this movie was fantastic. I loved how dark they actually went with it. I was surprised by the Joker scene, but boy was it good. Great video.
I rented this movie on DVD to watch it again after watching it on TV. I remember being really impressed with this movie. It really scared me as a kid, I was terrified of vampires. It was a relief when batman beat him at the end, in an epic fashion declaring, "I am the batman!" i watched this before batman begins. It was the first time, I realized how cool batman was. this was the first time it hit me.
Thanks for bringing attention to The Batman and specifically this movie, this incarnation really rules imo. Also, the use of the John Cena theme was fucking perfect, it made me laugh out loud each time
Yes! Thank you for shining light to this movie. It was absolutely my favorite Batman animated movie back in the day. I watched it so many times I lost count I genuinely is very nostalgic to watch you talk about this movie
Actually alot of people talk about it; maybe not as much as mask of the phantasm, but it was a story that BTAS wanted to do but censors prevented it. This even happend to Spider-man's Morbius for the animated series- where you couldn't show blood sucking, and couldn't say blood. You had to say ' Plasma'!
7:12 Alfred using a syringe bolt on a crossbow is what I’ve wanted to do in DND next time I play it. Just imagine healing your bro with health potion bolts, killing werewolves with silver powder/poison mixed bolts or frying some poor beast with alchemist’s fire bolts 😂
I remember owning the VHS of this and watching this like almost everyday. One of my favourites with one of the most Iconic moments when he does the pose at the end of the movie when defeating Dracula.
This was one of my favourite movies to watch as a kid, in fact I still have it on DVD. I always found it odd that I didn't really see anyone talk about this movie until now. Thank you for making a video about Batman vs Dracula I really enjoyed it.
I remember watching this movie hundreds of times when I was a kid and loving it. Finally someone talks about it. P.S.: I remember being "not able to sleep" scared of the vampire joker. No reason why, but "the joker but vampire" is a concept that broke kid me.
What shocked me the most about this movie is the scene at the Blood Bank with the Joker drinking LITERAL blood! Usually the censors at WB would say no to this but they kept that in. Maybe it's because it was a Straight-to-DVD movie so they were less restrictive on it, but still, it's very unsettling seeing a animated character drinking blood.
this movie is just something special just the vibe and the feel it has is so perfect...theres so much happening in the movie but its just made so perfectly
I distinctly remember having the first or second season of "The Batman" and watching on the trip from my home in LA to our vacation in Los Vegas and seeing the trailer for this movie in-between every other episode.
I watched this on Sunday after finishing the series and having a bad day after filming for my short film didn’t work out. It was a great way to make my day better.

Man the SWAT team get taken 1 by 1 and that upside down Dracula at the end scared the shit out of me as a kid. Literally check every dark corner I encounter to see if Drac is there or not lol.
Bro holy shit could you imagine an Interstellar Ranger Commence panel at SDCC? That sounds so crazy I almost teared up lmao, thank you for picking my question, had bad wording but at the end you kind of got what I was aiming for lol
Yeah Id cry bro lmao
3:52 “but the he died again, baby” holy shit that’s funny 💀
The Batman has one of the best animated Joker's I think I've ever seen, I mean his hair is literally shaped like a jesters hat
But then he dies again baby!
(John Cena theme blairs)
Bro, this shit had me dying great vid!
It gets me mad how underrated this movie (and series) is, it deserves better, especially because of that mind-blowing animation like this 4:49 or this 6:41
3:50 "Remember this dude? Forget him. Well technically, he didn't die... but then he dies again BABY!" LMAO!!!
Okay, thank God. This movie kicked ass, it was a perfect movie for childhood me. Character design was awesome, gothic, creepy, score were great, action was great. I just love it for the vibe, it screams nostaglia. The title sequel with the wonderful classic tune...my God
Here I am still waiting for a Batman vs Predator movie.
What about Batman v terminator?
and here I am waiting for a Justice League/Transformers crossover comic. (They planned to publish it until the new 52 shelved the plan for the comic crossover to happen. I wanted the batmobile and wonder woman's invisible plane to be Autobots in disguise so bad)
There is a batman vs predator comic
Hmmm, hopefully they can do that or hell superman vs predator thatll be awesome
This movie got away with a LOT of adult stuff for kids.
Namely, actually showing blood in the film!
We're lucky the backwards-minded censors didn't make them have "Alucard" drink "red rum" instead!
The rating of age was higher then the show.
This whole “The Batman” series is overlooked tbh
Dracula actually scared me when I was younger. Honestly, The Batman was one of my favorite shows. It gave me one of my favorite looks for Killer Croc
@@gatorkid3653 Was this your first batman film you saw in 2005?
The bloodbank scene with joker and the entire climax fight were just absolutely amazing
Who is the most powerful mythological creature in history?
Me: batman
7:27 ....Thank god you said blood!
I actually had edited it so there was like a one second pause before 'blood', but then I was like "Nah"
I haven't even watched this yet, but I have to thank you for this. First it was Spectacular Spider-Man, now The Batman, you're the first person I've ever heard talk nicely about The Batman and its exactly the nostalgia infused positivity I need right now. Thank you for what you do :)
I remember watching this with a babysitter when I was a child and was terrified. I tried rewatching it again when I was 12 and was still uncomfortable. I just fully watched it for the first time. I’m glad someone is talking about it
I love that this version Batman really knows how to fight hand to hand. Some Batman versions mostly rely on his tech/devices to win however this version relies more on his combat skills which makes me compare him to the Batman vs TMNT in terms of hand to hand combat skill. The villains on this show can also somewhat face him hand to hand and relies less on their goons to fight him unlike other version of those villains.
Oh I still have the DVD of BvD! I used to watch this movie lot as a kid.... Love this movie, my childhood Batman!
Did you grow up with the Dark Knight trilogy back in 2005-2012?
@@isaiahyinko7182 not just dark knight trilogy, but 90's batman movies and both Batman animated series as well 90's and 2004. i had the movies on repeat😁
@@bisheshshakya9417 Nice. How old were you when the Trilogy came out?
@@isaiahyinko7182 i saw it in 2009 onwards i was like 7 years at the time! Since then i became batman fan
I've watched this one several times. I agree that no one talks about it though, which is a pity. I guess it just got lost in the vast sea of great Batman stories.
I appreciate how you acknowledge this hidden gem of a movie & show
Personally I really like this film.
It was willing to walk the line between being a kids film and being made for an older audience.
For example, the scene with the vampire joker in the blood bank is done in a way that it can avoid censorship but you still get the effect. It’s terrifying, disgusting, creepy, and just with Joker would do if he became a vampire.
Also I think this film, like most of the series, does the “Batman can beat anyone” cliché right. When Batman comes across an enemy he’s not familiar with he’ll usually end up getting his butt kicked. It reminds us that he’s human. But then he researches the threat and plans out a way to defeat the enemy and then does. To me, beat your enemies by out thinking them is what Batman is all about. And if that means Batman has to suffer a loss every now and again, so be it. It’ll just make him look that much cooler when he does defeat them!
I did not see that add coming. Awesome transition 👏
This show was so underrated
Loved this. Loved the series, and this movie was fantastic. I loved how dark they actually went with it. I was surprised by the Joker scene, but boy was it good. Great video.
Fun fact: In the same year this movie came out, Peter Stormare portrays Satan in another DC property film, Constantine.
The one advert I actually really liked. It was information about a book, that had relevance. Respect that brother
Watching this film on Cartoon Network with how dark and how much blood it had felt pretty dang jarring.
I'm so happy to finally see someone talking about this movie!!
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid, I totally forgot it until you made your previous video
I rented this movie on DVD to watch it again after watching it on TV. I remember being really impressed with this movie. It really scared me as a kid, I was terrified of vampires. It was a relief when batman beat him at the end, in an epic fashion declaring, "I am the batman!" i watched this before batman begins. It was the first time, I realized how cool batman was. this was the first time it hit me.
Thanks for bringing attention to The Batman and specifically this movie, this incarnation really rules imo.
Also, the use of the John Cena theme was fucking perfect, it made me laugh out loud each time
Yes! Thank you for shining light to this movie. It was absolutely my favorite Batman animated movie back in the day. I watched it so many times I lost count I genuinely is very nostalgic to watch you talk about this movie
This movie was the shit
Sorry your name is “SIAH the swords men” not “this movie
Even when I was little, “I shall sweep that in the dust bin right away” was the most memorable line of the entire film.
Was this your first barman film you saw in 2005?
Actually alot of people talk about it; maybe not as much as mask of the phantasm, but it was a story that BTAS wanted to do but censors prevented it. This even happend to Spider-man's Morbius for the animated series- where you couldn't show blood sucking, and couldn't say blood. You had to say ' Plasma'!
7:12 Alfred using a syringe bolt on a crossbow is what I’ve wanted to do in DND next time I play it. Just imagine healing your bro with health potion bolts, killing werewolves with silver powder/poison mixed bolts or frying some poor beast with alchemist’s fire bolts 😂
Bruh when Batman said: “I’m the Batman....And You’re Dust.” I really felt that ✊🏾
I was literally just watching your review about The Batman (2004) and this came out 18 minutes later.
The opening titles of the movie gives vibes this is actually a horror movie
I remember owning the VHS of this and watching this like almost everyday. One of my favourites with one of the most Iconic moments when he does the pose at the end of the movie when defeating Dracula.
Great breakdown of a great film.
This was one of my favourite movies to watch as a kid, in fact I still have it on DVD. I always found it odd that I didn't really see anyone talk about this movie until now. Thank you for making a video about Batman vs Dracula I really enjoyed it.
Was this your first batman film you saw?
Dracula was a total savage in this.
0:20
I legit just bought this the other week, love watching that film since I was a kid👏🏼
I remember watching this movie hundreds of times when I was a kid and loving it. Finally someone talks about it.
P.S.: I remember being "not able to sleep" scared of the vampire joker. No reason why, but "the joker but vampire" is a concept that broke kid me.
@@zoroack792 Was this your first batman film you saw in 2005?
YES!!! I've been a Batman fanboy since I was 3. It makes me happy you're doing videos about his shows
Can u review the Spider-Man 2000s trilogy please?
Sure, at some point!
@@Browntable Can't wait!
Peter Parker I saw you from channel pup
What not even going to mention the scene where Batman goes to Draculas hive and just goes to town i love that scene
This is one of my favorite Batman. Shame it’s so underrated...
Bro, this was me and my brother’s favorite animated movie. We watched this so many times.
Same with me and my brother lmao
jessus this vid just brought up so much nostalgia.
i loved this film as a kid
Really the whole swat team scene reminded you of just year one cuz something similar happens in mask of the phantasm
The one Batman show and movies I would never get tired of. This Joker scared the hell out of me as a kid compared to the other normal looking ones
What shocked me the most about this movie is the scene at the Blood Bank with the Joker drinking LITERAL blood! Usually the censors at WB would say no to this but they kept that in. Maybe it's because it was a Straight-to-DVD movie so they were less restrictive on it, but still, it's very unsettling seeing a animated character drinking blood.
I know you were just blabbering in the outro but i find it so funny. I like your channel.
this movie is just something special just the vibe and the feel it has is so perfect...theres so much happening in the movie but its just made so perfectly
I distinctly remember having the first or second season of "The Batman" and watching on the trip from my home in LA to our vacation in Los Vegas and seeing the trailer for this movie in-between every other episode.
I watched this on Sunday after finishing the series and having a bad day after filming for my short film didn’t work out. It was a great way to make my day better.
Listening to this guy is enough to put you off watching this movie ever again.
I remember this movie actually scaring me a bit as a kid when it premiered on TV
