- Hope you enjoy and sorry if I missed any like The Brave and the Bold, Dark Knight Returns and Beware the Batman. Rest in peace to the person that made Batman special for so many people.
Edit: thanks so much for almost a million views and I think in retrospect that I should have given Batman Beyond intro theme at least a "woo baby" since it's really cool and captures the feeling of the world in the show.
There is no such thing as a bad Batman theme
For real, like even the Schumacher theme has no right to slap so hard given the quality of the films lol.
Idk I don’t think I could ever forgive the bat nips
The Gotham TV show theme: it was perfect.
@@Nightman776 BRUH THE THEME N0T THE SUIT
My favorites out of the bunch is Dark Knight, The Batman, and the Telltale series theme
The Arkham City theme keeps me in the main menu for hours
so dang good
Me too
Same effect with Spiderman Ps4
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
same
The Batman theme is in another level, I love Zimmer, but the feeling you get when that theme kicks, it's just, god tier
That’s what happens when you get Giacchino to score.
@@volt42reExactly, he's a 10
@@volt42re🎺🗿
@@volt42re giacchino takes existing songs and scores and reclasses them into further epics. What he does is remarkable. Up there with Zimmer and Williams for me
Zimmer's theme is way better.
I’ll give props to Hans Zimmer composed theme for The Dark Knight, I really enjoyed how Christian Nolan’s version of Batman took a different turn of complex characters such as Two-Face, The Joker, Lucius Foxx, and Detective Jim Gordon. All in all the film had me at the edge of my seat. Goosebumps every time.
All are amazing but “The Batman” (movie) theme gives you power at peak level.
The movie or the TV show?
Hell nah
there really is no comparison, that shit goes HARD
Hmm
@@thehumblevaudevillain movie obviously
The Batman telltale theme is underrated as hell. That was a pretty damn good theme for a telltale game.
I was gonna say that myself, but then I realized it was lucky enough to even be included here considering how underrated Batman Telltale is overall
@@FinelinePictures exactly they need to make more batman telltale because he Barley talked about anymore troy Baker did such a great batman
For a telltale game? The Wolf Among Us theme is goated to this day
100%
It was one of the best Batman stories in my opinion then season 2 showed up and made it that much better
He's never really had a bad theme. Some that are better than others, but never a properly bad one.
"Beware the Batman" was pretty bad. Didn't fit the theme of the show at all.
I still think the 2004 "The Batman" was a pretty top-tier intro. The quiet electric guitar, then it starts building up into a crescendo as it shows Batman's most notable rogues, then the cut to that creepy distorted "The Batman" murmured at the end of the theme. It's not the most famous or the best, but it definitely sets the perfect mood for a Batman show.
@@TheChildofAuraRebornbro we not hearing out Furries over here
@@AnthonyBlamthony Ok then?
0:27 Oh, "I mean it's all right" my ass! both that theme and the Return of the Joker theme are f#%king awsome! (I do agree with everything else though)
Fr that was an incredible theme what is he on
Pattinson's theme is just pure power. It's up there with Raimi's Spiderman theme for me
For me that would be the Batfleck theme
Black Suite too.
It's just intimidating, but it's nothing compared to Raimi's. If he has composition and work on it, I'd say that TDK is much better.
@@matiasolivos9043 Agreed.
It's literally better
1:24 perfect synch
I have special feelings for Batman's music written by Danny Elfman. When I was a kid, my friend and I just loved to play LEGO BATMAN 2 and this music was used there. It's so deeply ingrained in my memory and heart. This music makes me feel so many emotions...
Yep, but one particular theme is overly apathy and depressed, the one with the scarecrow bossfight (not the flying sequence)
Omg I played Lego Batman 2, and that was before I watched the Tim Burton Batman movie, and when I did, IT BLEW MY MIND
Same
The Batman theme should definitely get Homelander’s seal of approval…
Not that good compared to the rest
@@b7_167ah man it radiates vengeance
@@b7_167 L opinion
@@b7_167 it somehow fits perfectly with the black and white morals and obsession with vengeance he had for the majority of the movie
@@flap.d.jack247 man you look like a total Loser and had the guts of call the other guy L 🤣 check yo-self in the mirror
Inner demon from Arkham knight just hits different after Kevin Conroy passed away.
Oh wow, you included The Batman 2004 tv show! Most people have either never heard of it, don’t like it or have forgotten it. I loved that show.
The Dark Knight Returns theme not being here is absolutely criminal.
I love it, but at the same time it’s literally Stannis’s theme from Game of Thrones
It was composed by the same person who did Arkham Origins🔥
The Dark Knight Returns theme is my favorite Batman theme.
It's just an overall very underrated animated movie.
Im assuming you mean the animated movie based on the comic?
@@sr7129 And Stannis' theme is the best theme of Game of Thrones. Ergo.
2004 Batman’s guitar riffs are the soundtrack to my childhood
I'm so glad other people know this shows exists, I thought I was the only one for the longest time, it's not the most popular batman, but it was so original, it was a different type of pure gold
My family has most or if not all of the seasons on dvd because myself, my brother, and my dad all loved the show.
For me, thats the best animated series of batman.
I loved that batman
@@chloew4ffl3s same i have it all on DVD
Batman Beyond “all right?” Gotta disagree, man.
Ik!!! It really slaps!
While I agree, I think the distinction is that, besides the 60s batman show theme, you can sorta dance to the beyond theme. The opening even has people dancing to it. It's understandable for someone to place it on a lower tier because it's tonaly different... one could argue it doesn't feel as batman as the others. I think it's perfect for the show, but I can also see where they are coming from.
Nono, BAT man
@@XanthosAcanthusComparing the Batman Beyond Theme to all of the other Batman themes is like comparing any of rhe Miles Morales themes to Peter Parker's. Like, they're too different characters. It’s not really supposed to feel like Batman, it's supposed to feel like Batman Beyond. It's Terry McGinnis' theme!
Ik it's a beyond great theme 😏
B:TAS will forever be the goat of Batman themes
Like hearing it for the first time in the intro and then during his first fight with ManBat... nostalgia i cant even describe.
The Batman doesn't just have the Best Batman theme, but it's arguably the Best Comic Book soundtrack ever
2022's Theme is timeless
All times i hear this theme i feel the fear the thugs have. I feel like something will come out of the shadows and puts me in a coma with 5min combos
@@ka1serrfps
Yup. It perfectly captured the dread some common street thug would feel when seeing the Batman emerge from the shadows and approach you with malicious intent.
Literally, it's boring and repetitive. Almost like no time passes
@@elijahlee3610 you did not understood the theme. Is literally what gotham's thug feel at night
I would just surrender without even being touched by him. Just to know somebody of my crew was missing i would just do like the last thug in the games, he just gives up 🤣
Origins soundtrack literally gives me chills, one of the most GOAT soundtracks ever. Christopher Drake is a pure W
Free
@@ultrakurd1549 what's free?
Christopher Drake is also the same guy who made the spiderman 3 theme
@@gametown4712 Wouldn't that be Christopher Young?
I think we're missing The Dark Knght Returns theme
Batman 1989 theme is such a nostalgia for me. I used to play lego batman a lot and this fire beat always came in the menu of the game.
Old batman themes are so incredible like the batman animated series theme has such cool jazz influences danny elfman is a genius
the batman 2004 has such a cool vibe idk why
Pastry-Man It was made by The Edge. Idk why it's such a vibe, the third season theme is a straight up banger though that takes you back to the happiness of childhood. But the original theme is such a vibe. That's why it's my channel banner.
Fr. I aleays remember Colonel Sanders dancing meme whenever I hear The Batman 2004 theme. That Batman cartoon was my childhood I always watches the show while eating Crown Chicken Nugguets from BK, is also the cartoon that made me want to explore more of The Batman world
I totally disagre with the opinion on Batman Beyond
Besides that, every batman theme is genius
It obviously doesn't work for Bruce Wayne's batman but it works perfectly for Terry McGuiness
Kristopher Carter is awesome. And his Batman beyond theme still makes me smile
@@ajax3748exactly that's the point of this theme It's supposed to represent a futuristic version of Batman and it works so well I actually love the music
The Dark Knight Rises theme is HEAVILY underrated.
Hans Zimmer, what a genius. Goosebumps.
Wtf, how is that underrated. That's literally what everyone knows Hans Zimmer for lol
@@rileymachelle4088 or call of duty
@@rileymachelle4088 some people know him for the amazing spider
@Daily Dose of Devan House ...What? What does the newest generation have to do with anything? I was born in the 2000s and I still saw Batman '89. It's not like movies disappear 10-20 years after they come out! If you're a fan of Batman or Christopher Nolan, then you've seen The Dark Knight and heard that soundtrack
@House_Corporation_LLC people now know him for tasm2 theme, man of steel theme, bvs theme and wonder woman theme. Interstellar and dune as well
For me Batman Beyond theme is really cool and gives me so much nostalgia
Love that recognition of the 2 different Batfleck themes from BVS & ZSJL!
W vid ❤️
The Batman 2004 theme deserves more respect, that shit slaps
BvS Theme is so underrated. It just sounds like tragedy, bitterness, and RAGE, all in music form.
Same
The Batfleck theme SLAPS. I love the rest but something about Batflecks theme just radiates comic Batman
FACTS!
It fits that version of Batman perfectly it also kind of sounds like a villain’s theme which also fits
If we count Beautiful Lie as a Batman theme, I agree
Danny Elfman's Batman Returns theme is pretty much the same as his '89 Batman theme. Plus, fantastic compositions for Catwoman & Penguin.
Exactly. Like how is it just "alright?" 🙄
@@KevinLuper99 It's called an opinion
@@GRA2itousand a shitty one at that
@@q.h.s5051 It’s all subjective
@GRA2itous yeah and that opinion is "It's not good unless it's a trend/mainstream"
Will always have a special place in my heart for the animated series. Best Batman show ever.
92 the best theme rip kevin
yeah it's definetely my favourite one, so catchy too
I grew up on BTAS, so naturally its theme music is the GOAT in my book. I believe the very best version of it came from the intro to Mask of the Phantasm. Shirley Walker really was a pro. It's no wonder she was one of Danny Elfman's assistants (his Batman theme is easily my second favorite). Her theme music has been just as much synonymous with Batman for me as Kevin Conroy's voice will always be to me (RIP to both of them).
Shirley Walker is dead????? I didn't know that. :,( She was such a genius, really. She stayed in Elfmans' shadow, but it was a PIECE of a shadow.
@@lucasb.n.saavedra.7008 Yeah, she died in 2006. At least she left behind just as great of a legendary career as Kevin did.
What is BTAS?
@@andreimcallister1365 Batman: The Animated Series.
@@lucasb.n.saavedra.7008 I mean I wouldn't say it like that, she's just under appreciated. Her theme was totally better than Elfman's, no contest. But that not as many people have even heard it, which is kinda sad. I wish DC would give it more love the same way Marvel uses Spider-Man's classic 60s theme in the MCU. It's so timeless
I'm glad you gave recognition to The Batman and Batman Forever. Those themes were so good but overlooked.
Batman arkham asylum theme is amazing as hell, it's just so gritty and dark that it's perfect for the whole entire atmosphere
Batman beyond theme has a special place in my heart it’s not for everyone but it’s just as iconic as the rest
0:00 Kevin Conroy’s Batman: it’s perfect. Perfect, everything. Down to the last minute detail. Rest In Peace, Kevin Conroy.
He's Adam West
@@dubbster_storm_2705I know. I meant that Kevin Conroy’s Batman is perfect and beyond.
@@Gamex-Frontiers Yup agree. I wish Nolan would've hired Kevin Conroy for voicing Christian Bale's Batman so he didn't had to do that soar throat voice.
1:02 has to be my favorite
I love how you appreciate The Batman Forever theme as it was my first Batman film and I thought it was the main Batman theme for a long time. It was stuck in my head since I was 4 years old.
Here are my Top 5:
1: Batman: Mask of The Phantasm/TAS theme
(What can I say, it's iconic for all the correct reasons. This theme gives me the feeling I want to feel when I listen to a soundtrack, and that is epicness, which this does absolutely give me)
2: Batman 1989 theme
(Danny Elfman was the perfect pick for composing the 89 soundtrack.)
3: Batman Arkham Series themes (ALL OF THEM)
(All four of them reflect on how Batman is in every game. In Asylum, it is dark and slow, in City, it is more epic, in Origins it is more "cold"-ish, and in Knight it's almost horror themed. It fits perfectly, and it understands the Batman character.)
4: TDK trilogy theme (Molossus)
(This was probably the one I loved the most as like a middle schooler, but I've come appreciate the others more. But this one still slaps just as hard as Batman slapped the Joker in the interrogation scene.)
5: Batman Beyond theme
(I am a huge metalhead, and idk what it is about this one. Maybe it is the inclusion of guitar? Idk, it just speaks to me)
If you're a huge metal head, you may like the aggressive and bombastic BvS theme. It's not exactly metal, but it's fkin amazing.
The animated series theme is GOATed, but Mask of the Phantasm's version truly defines Batman in a way that no other film does.
For me it's the upgraded version of the beyond theme that plays in return of the joker. Absolutely perfect
Telltale Series Batman' s soundtrack is actually so good
They’re all incredible!
No one will ever replace this talented and iconic actor for the voice of Batman. I wish I met him. He was my hero and an inspiration to me. I still go through the pain of him being gone. He is gone too soon. He will never be forgotten. He was vengeance. He was the night. HE WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE BATMAN!!!!!!! Rest In Peace Kevin Conroy. Thank you for everything.
@@SOB98 oh my God. IT'S KEVIN CONROY!!
@@SOB98 it’s at the bottom of the comment!!
Batman, TDK, Arkham City and The Batman themes are on a whole another level
There is no such thing as a bad Batman theme.
The Batman theme is the GOAT.
It’s got that suspenseful and incoming threat vibe to it…which suits Batman perfectly.
For me the themes of the Arkham games are goated, especially Arkham Asylum. They made me feel like I was in the comics and watching Batman The Animated Series.
BTAS and Batman(1989) will always be classic and nostalgic, Shirley Walker is so underrated.
The Dark Knight trilogy music is at another level gives a more realistic, tragic and heroic vive.
Arkham games (both Nick andurel and Christopher Drake slayed with their score, perfect gameplay experience)
The Batman theme by Michael Giacchino is by far the best Batman theme ever, It's as gothic and raw as BTAS and as modern as Dark Knight. Perfect Batman theme imo.
Pattinson theme is out of this worlds brilliant composing Micheal Giacchino
The Goat!!!!! Gets me every damn time!
MAN the Robbat Battinbat score is SOOOO GOOD! It's intense while still being mysterious and Gothic
Nearly all of them are amazing. Batman clearly has the best themes.
I really appreciate when someone remembers The Batman animation, such an underrated show
Batman Beyond is an under-appreciated masterpiece.
Growing up listening to Batman TAS Shirley Walkers theme will always have a special place in my heart. Especially the Opening of Mask of Phantasm Movie absolutely incredible.
"Inner Demon" from B:AK awakens something in me every time... like deep darkness, mixed with unstoppable motivation to act, no matter the feelings
The telltale theme I think is genuinely so underrated. It’s so good
The Batman got me and the boys defending Gotham with only pure willpower as our tool.
I lowkey love the TellTale series theme. Captures everything about the character, from the mysteriousness to the heroism
89 is the best theme ever
'89 and TAS are the goats, no question 🐐
Returns' theme fits well with the gothic "Burtonesque" atmosphere that Burton puts into his gothic fairytale-styled like movies.
TDK Trilogy's themes fit in well with the realistic-gritty style of Nolan's films.
Snyder's Bat Theme is just badass.
'66's theme fits well with the campy playful TV series.
Beyond's theme just slaps, just like The Batman (2004) Animates Series' theme.
Reeves' and Schumacher's Batman Themes just menacing.
And all of the Arkham games themes sound amazing, you can't forget Telltale's theme, tho.
But let's be real here, whenever we think of the world of Batman, the '89 or TAS theme will definetly pop up and start playing in our heads.
The Batman theme was amazing Michael Giacchino! You are brilliant!
Yeah they are all amazing
Yo Arkham City - homelander speech
Arkham city had to be the best batman Osts out there but Arkham knight had to be the best out of all the the batman music genres.
I loved the Telltale Batman theme tbh, that and the Affleck theme are some of my faves
Everything is a masterpiece
Batman Beyond was prolly the one I remember most since my brother and I would watch it all the time. Saw the Return of the Joker movie and that solidified it as my all time favorite regardless of whatever came out. The Batman is a close second
Don't be sad because he's gone be happy because he was born
Honestly this video made me realize there’s never been a Batman theme I haven’t at least liked… pretty incredible when you think about it.
1:12 OOOOH two in a row! GOOSEBUMP CENTRAL over here!
What’s the name of the song with batfleck standing by the signal
Hearing Michael Kenton’s theme while playing Lego Batman will never leave my memories. Same with the Arkham games
Batman Arkham City Theme Song Gives Me Goosebumps Just Listening To It
I can't believe that there are just few people who talk like that about this masterpiece
The Batman theme gives me goosebumps, my personal favorite
The 1966 one is so iconic, the Jam cover is even better
The Batman (WB Show) theme is my favorite. A smooth and steady baseline accompanied by a mysterious high pitched rift that ends with the iconic whisper. *chefs kiss*
Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises were, in my opinion, the PINNACLE of Live Action Batman Movies
Fun fact: The Batman (2022) is supposed to be Batfleck's own solo movie until he stepped down from directing it. Matt Reeves took over the production until Ben eventually stepped down from the role as a whole, giving Matt Reeves a little bit more freedom with the continuity.
So yeah. In a sense, this COULD have been the Batfleck solo movie we've always wanted, just with Robert Pattinson in it as opposed to having Ben in the movie.
Not really. Once Matt reeves became envolved. He wanted to scrap all of it and make his own.
no this is barely resemble Ben Afleck's batman, Battinson straight up told Gordon to not use a gun and don't kill people while Ben's batman is a murderous psychopath who killed low tier criminals and not the Joker for some reasons
I don't think each of you understood what the comment meant. The development for The Batman began when WB planned for a Batman solo movie for the DCEU with Ben himself as the director. When he stepped down as the director, Matt Reeves stepped in to direct. The movie only became a separate entity when Ben stepped down from the project entirely.
If for example the plans for a DCEU Batman solo film wouldn't have surfaced, the movie wouldn't have existed at all. The same can be said otherwise if Ben never stepped down from the project. So in a sense, this IS the Batfleck movie we've always wanted, just not in the way we're expecting (Not part of the DCEU, but the idea is still there.)
@@Red_Spidey BvS Batman is bad guy Batman. Not prime Batman. ZSJL is the Batfleck to think of. Snyderverse Bats was not always in BvS mode
In that case they completely rewrote it because this is Batman origin...
Arkham City and The Dark Knight is my personal favs! Those are master pieces 🔥
Animated Series, Dark Knight, and the Arkham City theme will always have a special place in my heart.
The Arkham City menu theme is literally what got me into reading Batman comics. I sat there wanting more so bought Year One
They ignored the Batman: "The Brave and the Bold theme". It's good.
Finally, some appreciation for the Batman Forever theme! It's no Elfman score but it's still a great bit of music and does a great job of hyping you up.
I love The Batman 2004 cartoon theme , such a underrated show
Dude the telltale theme is not just alright I get that shit stuck in my head sometimes lol
Keaton's theme is definitely my favorite, it's iconic
Yup. I saw the movie when I was little but playing the first 2 Lego Batman games is when it really stuck with me.
Some bangers in there
Origins implementing the Christmas jingle into batman's theme was f*cking genius and goes hard. Also telltale Batman theme is underrated
finally, The Batman (the animated) is receiving the attention he deserves
Batman the animated series never was overlooked or never lacked attention
@@slw8866 I think he meant the 2004 version
@@slw8866 i was talking about the 2004 version

RIP Kevin Conroy and Adam West
I think we can all agree that the 89 theme is the absolute 🐐
When it comes to any movie, show, or game, in most cases you can’t deny that the soundtrack is phenomenal
RIP KEvin Conroy Her voice acting in the game and animation was excellent🖤
Her 💀
“Her” 🗿
The 2022 one is so good. Masterpiece and probably THE BEST LIKE NUMBER ONE LIKE UNO LIKE 🔥🔥🔥
The dark knight and the Batman theme always gives me goosebumps 🗿
How is Telltale's just alright? The theme for both games is amazing!
This list is bullshit
Whenever I hear the TDK theme, which plays at the end of movie along with the credit theme, that always gives me the vibe that I gotta save an intire city.
The second one will always be the best one. So many memories playing the Lego Batman with my cousin
