+daustin8888 agreed why did they never use it in the remakes. Think about how awesome this would have been in batman Vs superman, they could have had both Danny Elfmans theme, and John Williams theme. Not this over used Hans Zimmer crap.
Elfman and Williams basically shit on anything Zimmer did for the characters. And I'm a huge fan of everything Zimmer has done OTHER than his Nolan stuff and Superman.
@@JPJones03223 That's what happens when Danny Elfman composes music for the right superhero movie. Batman, Batman Returns, Spiderman trilogy, most of (or all, don't quote me on this) the MCU movies. Of course I can't forget the Simpsons, even though it's not a superhero movie.
+nshed87 Batman (1989) had the best ending , no Endings of Nolan Batman trilogy could beat this beautiful ending but The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises easily beat this movie , and why I didn't mention batman begins , well I think Batman (1989) beats Batman Begins ... but nonetheless I love Tim Burton 1989 movie and I adore and just love Nolan batman trilogy , I mean The Dark Knight is one of my favorite films .... and Batman 1989 Ending is one of my favorite endings to a film :)
When I got this on VHS back in I think either 89 or 90, I did the same thing. That score is so dark but uplifting and beautifully triumphant. You knew the worst was over, but dark and difficult days were still ahead. The one thing that would stand against it all, was standing on top of that building staring at his signal.
@@archerzombiemonreal yet they kiss Nolan's balls when by 2010, he was the Silver Surfer to Zack Snyder's Galactus....smh Stupid BASTARDS!!! FROM Alan Horn to anyone at WBMedia not named Ann Sarnoff....
Mr Wayne told me to tell you he might be a little late......he has to stand guard in front of the bat signal for one of the most epic finale's in a movie ever
I completely agree Kanefan701! Pat Hingle, Billy Dee Williams, Robert Wuhl, Michael Gough, and Kim Basinger (and those are just the SUPPORTING actors) make this scene so memorable. Their acting is flawless, and Danny Elfman's score only puts the icing on the cake. No other Batman films in the franchise have anywhere CLOSE to as good as a musical score as Elfman's in both Tim Burton films. As good as the Christian Bale movies were, I will always love Tim Burton's 1 & 2 the most. The best actors, the best music, the best everything!
When I first saw the movie back then for some reason I thought the Joker was going to live and get away. lol He was so crafty in this movie I figured maybe a dummy landed on the ground.
From 2:03 up until the end is when Batman became my hero. I was born the same year this movie was released and needless to say grew up watching it. I remember this ending so vividly, it was one of the most memorizing things I've ever seen in my life. To this day it still brings tears. Can't even begin to describe the nostalgia I feel from this ending. I actually just finished watching the entire movie. It had been a very long time since I got a chance to see it in it's entirety and gosh, I'll never go a long time without watching this masterpiece again. Thank you Batman, you gave me confidence in my childhood when I needed it the most. .--'\ \.__./ /'--. _.-' '.__.' '.__.' '-._ .' '. / \ | | | | \ .---. .---. / '._ .' '.''. .''.' '. _.'

I remember going up to the top of the couch as a four year old, with a towel as a cape, and just looking up at the imaginary symbol while Batman did it on the TV. Almost 30 years ago.
I can only imagine how audiences in theaters reacted to seeing the Bat-signal on the big screen for the first time. Danny Elfman knocked the music score out of the park, especially at 2:15. What a rousing and joyful ending.
We were branded for life. To this day this and returns are the only 2 Batman movies I'll acknowledge. And of course, Keaton as the only Batman to ever live.
I kid you not everytime I here the last few notes just before the fade into black, it's almost sounds like the score is screaming. "I AM BATMAN!" and I love it.
Oh I'm glad someone else noticed this. I only just realized it about 3 years ago, cuz I tried to plunk it out on a piano. Yeah, it goes from minor to major. I think it works really well. I love Elfman's work.
I love the dark knight trilogy !! ...but this scene specially the music combined with the cathedral and batman on top with the batsignal , tim burton somehow makes you believe that batman is really a supernatural creature !!! From all batman's movies , this is the best ending !!!
Interestingly enough, I consider Nolan's Batman to be more of a James Bond type superhero with all the gadgets and abilities. However, I looked at Keaton's Batman as being a sort of mysterious creature that lived in the darkness. Personally, I think the darkness type appeals to me. But everybody has their preference.
@@skerr808 Yeah. Even if people see Burton's Batman as campy now, there's elements of it that I think are actually darker than Nolan. Like Nolan is dark in a more matter of fact, real world way like Law and Order. Burton was more like a gothic horror movie, especially the first one but in some ways the second too. Even if the whole Burtonverse never makes a comeback, I'd like to see Burton's style make a comeback. There needs to be a director who's a fanboy of both the Burton movies and the comics who figures out how to marry the two. Maybe that's what we would have gotten if Burton had left Sam Hamm's script alone and just brought all his ideas to life in his signature gothic style.
@2:33 The music combined with that shot it pure gold and absolutely beautiful. A dark hero standing tall ready to protect his city. Michael Keaton you will always be Batman
The actors I knew best as the Dark Knight were Keaton, Killer, and Clooney. Chris O'Donnell as Robin, and Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl of course I have seen many episodes of the 1960s Batman series so I am well acquainted with the late great Adam West as Batman Burt Ward as Robin the boy Wonder Yvonne Craig as Batgirl and of course who could forget some of the supporting characters Alan Napier as Alfred Pennyworth Neil Hamilton as commissioner James Gordon Stafford Repp as Chief O'Hara and of course who could forget Madge Blake as Aunt Harriet Cooper and I will say this that series definitely had a lot of different villain characters there's more than you can shake a stick at and that definitely includes the the most famous of them the joker who was played by Cesar Romero the penguin who was played by Burgess Meredith the Catwoman who was played by Julie newmar Eartha Kitt and of course by Lee Meriwether in the movie who could forget Frank gorshin as The Riddler and let's face it there are a lot of other great villains too besides the Big four there are too many to easily remember but they all were pretty tough but I will say this the bat family quite easily took them down!
I saw this as a 14 year old kid and thought it was one of the greatest movie scenes ever. Now, aged 46, I think it's one of the greatest movie scenes ever.
***** No, he does wanted to do it. He said in the interview that he took the part because he was looking forward to be disfigure. When Tim Burton was fired from directing, Warner Bros. didn't want Billy in the first place. So, they preferred a bigger name, which came along Tommy Lee Jones. They made some big mistakes back in the day.
Why does this scene give me chills? When they light up the signal and everyone starts pointing up and the ending when it leads up to him standing. Majestic.
I wore out my 1990 VHS tape that my parents bought for me from constant rewinding starting at 2:15 onward, over and over, and over again as a kid(33 now), just as the music starts to swell, to Batman standing on the iron pillar as the picture fades out, beautiful cinema here.
In high school I wrote stage version of this film as an assignment. When the fan fare started the set would pull away to reveal a projected bat signal, and who ever was play Batman would be standing on a edge and when the fanfare played the last 30 secs, they would jump off into the orchestra pit, full arms extended, with the cape fully extended, and a projection saying Batman will return. Got a c- cause my teacher hated batman. My classmates wanted to perform it as a final production as we were graduating. Would have been epic but copyrights am I right? LOL
I stuck a batman atop a castle I painted in high school. Totally out of place, out of scale, full daylight, etc. But this scene emblazoned itself on me forever. I know the secret though. Elfman changes Batman's theme from a minor chord to a major chord, right at the moment the camera crawls up the buildings.
I was cheering in the theater when I saw that, a absolutely perfect ending, I wish more super hero movies could have a moment like this. Even 34 years later it is still to this day one of the best comic book hero endings to ever grace the silver screen!
Without a doubt the best ending to any Batman considering that it shows Gotham trusting Batman as its protector! Add to the fact that it ends with him standing on top of a cathedral looking at the bat signal makes this ending even more iconic and unforgettable!
This got put in my theatre. Because they weren’t showing newer movies. One of the best things to come from COVID. And The epicness of this ending always brings tears to my eyes.
This is one of my top favorite endings. The music the camera going up and there is batman atop the highest building waiting for the forces of evil to rise again and put a stop to them. I like how a movie gives you an ending that finishes and that is that. Now a days with movies you can't leave the theaters until after the credits and all you think about is " oh my god this character is gonna come out in the next movie". Finishing a movie should be like this that was a great movie I don't know what movie is gonna top this.
***** Well besides kryptonite, he's weak to magic/mystic arts, psionic powers, red sun radiation, lead, massive physical forces like foes he fights that are from space like him such as General Zod or Darkseid, and sometimes electricity
+JB0523 He doesn't have a weakness to lead. His so-called weakness to magic is vastly overstated by people like yourself who don't do their research. Red sun radiation is plot induced stupidity since it only ever slows him down, and Superman just ends up fighting his way out of it. Kryptonite has, and always will be his main weakness. It's no surprise you think he's a generic character, your assessment of him is based on ignorance. I guess that makes you a generic troll.
I still get the CHILLS when I see the batman looking over the city with the music...lol..👍🏻💯 . I seen this like 30 times when it was out in the theater and VHS. Good time to be a kid.
I was really young when this came out and being able to go to the movies to see a film at that age was a huge deal for me (it was possibly the second film i remember seeing at the theater after Snow White during summer of 87) and the ending really stuck with me like “thats how you end a film”.
I am 31 years old. this was the first non animated movie I ever seen. I think I was 3-4 years old. This ending still gets me every time, as if it were the first time I seen it. chills.
I too cried when seeing this first time cause it was that powerful and it made me believe that batman was real let alone at night I would picture the bat sign outside shining bright in the sky.
Even as I saw this movie at close to 4 years old, this has to still be one of the best endings to a movie I have ever seen. Not only the ending, the music, Kim Basinger’s beauty, and overall energy are like all in a certain unison.
this brings me back to my childhood everytime I hear the final scene music to one of the greatest movies I Witness as a 7 year old kid back in 89 to like batman growing up with even watching the animated series too in the 90's.
0:34 - “We received a letter from Batman this morning. Please inform the citizens of Gotham, that Gotham City has earned a rest from crime. But if the forces of evil should rise again, to cast the shadow on the heart of the city. Call me.”
Those last few moments with Batman standing looking at his signal is where happy tears fall from me, the moment of my batman childhood.
Kanefan701 Me too!!
Same here
I totally hear you. 4 years old for me when watching this movie..
me too brother. It's the best ending of any super hero movie in my opinion.
I feel you...and I was 24 at the time!!
Elfman's music in this was monumental and iconic.
+cjewe1z The bestfriend of Tim Burton besides Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter

Was Johnny Depp sober enough to remember who his friends are?
taking more than inspiration from Richard Strauss helps, too.
One of his best
@@giovannigarbarini You really are a miserable bastard. Who cares, it's a great score and he's a talented musician.

Batman is and still is so cool
Youre.not the only one! I still do!
I'm 36 and I still rewatch this scene.
It sucks that we never got a crossover between Michael Keaton's Batman and Christopher Reeve's Superman.
How epic would that have been?
We’re getting a comic with that soon
@@kagemusha168 As in them crossing over? Possibly and something I'd like to see but doubt theyll go for it
Same. In any case, it's now canon that they inhabit different universes(Earths 78 and 89)
That would have dominated the box office
The ending to this movie gives me chills to this day.
I know, me too
Same!!!
Warner Bros.: “We never said thank you.”

4 year old Memories.. best Batman ever!!!
He may not have been the first Alfred but he was definitely the greatest to ever play the character RIP Mr Gough
Such a cool finale so heroic! I actually can't wait to see Robert Pattisons take on the dark knight now!
No other batman movie whatsoever gives you the feeling of the final scene of this masterpiece ... the best by far ...
"Also Batman is treated like the side character in a Joker movie."
Kind of like in TDK too right?
tdkr came close. although it was more of a emotional ending
Watch Mask of Phantasm.
Actually Gordon's monologue at the end of Dark Knight beats this.
@@itstrevel That one was legit too.
the best batman ending ever.

+Jonger81 class is yes indeed :3
Goosebumps all the time
This ending and spider-man(2002) ending was priceless
+Courtney Gibson In spiderman 2, the green goblin would have been better if it had been a post-credit scene
Courtney Gibson Jr It's because Danny Elfman's score in both films made the whole job
@@archerzombiemonreal no that ending is perfect. They didn't need stupid post credit scenes back then.
The Joker defeated, the City safe...the bells ring out in triumph.
When I first saw the movie back then for some reason I thought the Joker was going to live and get away. lol He was so crafty in this movie I figured maybe a dummy landed on the ground.
And then,the penguin ruining gotham again
Actually the Joker is the same person that killed Bruce's parents
with the Joker dead, Bruce finally avenged his parents' deaths
The bells are in the soundtrack. Not the city ringing them.
The Joker defeated, the bells ring in triumph, Gotham is safe..........for now.
"He gave us a Signal"
1:03 The music and the lighting of the Signal just gives you chills.
2:30 "I am vengeance! I am the night! I am Batman!"
To me the ending of this movie is a testament of why the 80s is the best decade ever in regards to music and movies.
The music melted my heart.
30 years later, this masterpiece still holds up!
Batman 89 winner and still champion..

+Etor Christie Amen to that!
Only slightly incorrect: Actually the best superhero movie ever made. Nothing Marvel or Nolan have ever done is even in the conversation.
HEY! Say what you will about Captain America, but don't shit all over Spider-Man 2 (also done by Danny Elfman).
that music at the end always gets me right in the feels!
I love the music that plays at the very end. It sounds very heroic.
It sounds triumphant
I feel you, man!
Plus Batman watching over the city with that majestic music score is absolutely epic!
I remember going up to the top of the couch as a four year old, with a towel as a cape, and just looking up at the imaginary symbol while Batman did it on the TV. Almost 30 years ago.
I can only imagine how audiences in theaters reacted to seeing the Bat-signal on the big screen for the first time. Danny Elfman knocked the music score out of the park, especially at 2:15. What a rousing and joyful ending.

I love the slow build as it goes up and then you see him at the top and the ringing of the bells really sets the tone
It also gave us the feel of knowing that Batman will always watch over us and protect the innocent.
2:37-2:44 If you guys didn't catch that, this was Batman The Animated Series theme.
I kid you not everytime I here the last few notes just before the fade into black, it's almost sounds like the score is screaming. "I AM BATMAN!" and I love it.
I've always loved Danny Elfman's triumphant rendition of his main Batman theme.
There's so much joy in this part of the score. It really stands out.
Oh I'm glad someone else noticed this. I only just realized it about 3 years ago, cuz I tried to plunk it out on a piano. Yeah, it goes from minor to major. I think it works really well. I love Elfman's work.
Man this movie is too epic. Every time capsule in the world from 1989 onward should have one copy of this movie included in it. I'm just sayin lol
I think this is the greatest movie ending I've ever seen.
It always gives me a great feeling and probably my favourite closure of any film.
Even though I'm not into Batman that much anymore, I still consider this one of the best movie endings ever.
You would have to be the biggest loser to have ever existed not to be into batman. Nobody dare talks like that 😮

Gets me teary eyed every time brings back so much memories as a child

Got a c- cause my teacher hated batman. My classmates wanted to perform it as a final production as we were graduating. Would have been epic but copyrights am I right? LOL
Wow! A C-?! All because the they don't like Batman? If I was that teacher I would instantly give you an A+.
But eh. Good job anyway.
I stuck a batman atop a castle I painted in high school. Totally out of place, out of scale, full daylight, etc. But this scene emblazoned itself on me forever.
I know the secret though. Elfman changes Batman's theme from a minor chord to a major chord, right at the moment the camera crawls up the buildings.
Batman looking at the Bat signal at the top of the city is the symbolism is that he’s the guarding angel for Gotham and it’s citizens.
I was cheering in the theater when I saw that, a absolutely perfect ending, I wish more super hero movies could have a moment like this. Even 34 years later it is still to this day one of the best comic book hero endings to ever grace the silver screen!
Its 2022.
This still remains the best Batman ending ever, and to think we'll get to see Keaton don the cowl one more time.
Cannot wait to see Michael Keaton Batman again in the new Flash movie. And hope the play his music again in the movie with the bells.

Perfect ending to a Batman movie.
1:10 This has been the light of DC comics for almost 85 years
This is one of my top favorite endings. The music the camera going up and there is batman atop the highest building waiting for the forces of evil to rise again and put a stop to them.

I would love to see an ending scene just like this music and all with Keaton at the end of The Flash movie.
He is vengeance, He is the knight, he our forever batman rip Kevin Conroy 🖤🦇🖤
I really don't know why I get emotional over stuff like this. Every time!
Thanks for making me cry again, Fuck!

That ending is The moment Batman became my favourite superhero of all time. And also why to me Keaton is the no.1 Batman
Still get chills for the music at the end.
“He gave us the signal…”
One of the most iconic moments in this franchise’s history. I get chillbumps every single time I see it. ❤
This scene + superman flying over the Earth are the greatest endings to a superhero movie EVER
I 100% AGREE!!!! XD
***** well he's technically the prototype for all superheroes. And he has several weaknesses now, by the way.
***** Well besides kryptonite, he's weak to magic/mystic arts, psionic powers, red sun radiation, lead, massive physical forces like foes he fights that are from space like him such as General Zod or Darkseid, and sometimes electricity
+JB0523 He doesn't have a weakness to lead. His so-called weakness to magic is vastly overstated by people like yourself who don't do their research. Red sun radiation is plot induced stupidity since it only ever slows him down, and Superman just ends up fighting his way out of it. Kryptonite has, and always will be his main weakness. It's no surprise you think he's a generic character, your assessment of him is based on ignorance. I guess that makes you a generic troll.
Ahsan Ali nobody was even talking to you, FanBitch. Get off my post lol
I wasn't even born yet when this EPIC GOD film came out! Masterpiece!
Stan, I literally have sox older than you. Stay at peace my friend.
I was nine when i saw it in theaters. AMC Potomac Mills 10 near DC to be exact
Definitely the greatest movie from my childhood.
The biggest crime of this video is not letting the music continue as the credits roll
GOAT ending of any Batman film.
31 YEARS OLD, and still the BEST "Batman" movie ever!
Danny, this score! This is why he’s my favorite composer of all time. So heroic and triumphant.
Imagine the flash ends like this
I still get the CHILLS when I see the batman looking over the city with the music...lol..👍🏻💯 . I seen this like 30 times when it was out in the theater and VHS. Good time to be a kid.
Michael Keaton will always be batman to me
Its a beast Of ending " he gave us a signal" and was there already.
I was really young when this came out and being able to go to the movies to see a film at that age was a huge deal for me (it was possibly the second film i remember seeing at the theater after Snow White during summer of 87) and the ending really stuck with me like “thats how you end a film”.
I am 31 years old. this was the first non animated movie I ever seen. I think I was 3-4 years old. This ending still gets me every time, as if it were the first time I seen it. chills.
(2:30-2:44)
“I am vengeance, I am the night, I am BATMAN!!!”
This ending was too much better than Age of Ultron ending
But they're related how?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Stop being a DC troll. Not defending AoU, but seriously.
luis monreal way better than MCU
Lol that's way too specific. Why on earth would you compare it to Age of Ultron??
@@Karlebow571 mcu is way better !!!
@@potitosanthony8144 Than what? This movie?
Right this film is amazing and I rank it 2nd in all of the batman films. But this end scene is by far the best. The score the moment. Brilliant
my son always crys in this part
Me too...Me too...
You're not alone. It takes a man to admit that.
I too cried when seeing this first time cause it was that powerful and it made me believe that batman was real let alone at night I would picture the bat sign outside shining bright in the sky.
Same here..
Even as I saw this movie at close to 4 years old, this has to still be one of the best endings to a movie I have ever seen.
Not only the ending, the music, Kim Basinger’s beauty, and overall energy are like all in a certain unison.
Not even a cold snap bristles my beard as much as the ending score.
this brings me back to my childhood everytime I hear the final scene music to one of the greatest movies I Witness as a 7 year old kid back in 89 to like batman growing up with even watching the animated series too in the 90's.
Did you listen to that majestic ending?
Loved it since I was a toddler of 4... 🙂
I still feel that in the near future Tim burton will make his finished trilogy 👍
0:34 - “We received a letter from Batman this morning. Please inform the citizens of Gotham, that Gotham City has earned a rest from crime. But if the forces of evil should rise again, to cast the shadow on the heart of the city. Call me.”
