BTTB Presents: Deep Dives - “Batman: Mask of the Phantasm”

In this latest episode of the Deep Dive spinoff, Gaius is joined by Dustin Rybka of the Sex Party podcast to discuss 1993’s Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, directed by Eric Radomski and Bruce Timm, and written by Alan Burnett, Paul Dini, Martin Pasko, and Michael Reaves. The movie is based on Batman: The Animated Series and is the first original theatrical film produced by Warner Bros. Animation. In the film, Batman reconciles with a former lover, Andrea Beaumont, and faces a mysterious vigilante who is murdering Gothan City’s crime bosses. The situation comes complicated when the Joker enters picture and Batman is now faced goingup against two villains in this epic adventure that failed to ignite the box office upon initial release, but went on to become a cult classic on home video with some saying its one of the best Batman adaptations to date. The film features the vocal talents of Kevin Conroy, Mark Hamill, Efrem Zimbalist Jr., Bob Hastings, Robert Costanzo, Dana Delany, Hart Bochner, Stacy Keach Jr., Abe Vigoda, Dick Miller, and John P.
