Based on DC Comics characters

. It is the third film in the DC Animated Universe and is based on the animated series Batman Beyond while also serving as a continuation of and resolving plot points from Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures. The film features the DC Comics Batmen Bruce Wayne (Kevin Conroy) and Terry McGinnis (Will Friedle), as they try to unravel the mysterious return of the former’s archenemy, the Joker (Mark Hamill), preparing a climactic showdown with the villain.

The film was heavily censored following the 1999 Columbine High School massacre and WB’s objection to its content, causing its release to be delayed from Halloween 2000 to December 12, 2000. Subsequently, the PG-13 uncut version was released on DVD on April 23, 2002.

Cinema Crazed
A fantastic extension of the Batman mythos and one that pays homage to the classic Dark Knight, while also extending the dignity and mature arc of “Batman Beyond.”
