    “It’s not just a call. It’s a warning, to them.”

    This is the theme Batman deserves
  • @ElisandroDeLeon
    The fact that 5 notes can define such an iconic character is still mind blowing to me.

    Robert’s theme is good, Bale’s theme is amazing but….Keaton’s theme is iconic.
  • The flash movie had many problems, but for me hearing this in the theater with keaton as batman once again was absolutely worth the ticket
  • Danny Elfman managed to compose a music that portrays courage and fear on the same score, I honestly can't recall hearing anything similiar.

    I always felt like this was the darker version of Superman's main theme by John Williams, so it made for a fitting opening march for the Batman. Bravo, Danny Elfman!
  • Danny's Batman and Spider-man theme's are the character's defining themes. Like just....damn. Goosebumps
  • @hansbrick123
    This theme is so iconic that even Hans Zimmer can't avoid it's vibe when composing for The Dark Knight trilogy

    "I'm not going to kill you, but in return I want you to tell all your friends about me." "Who are you." "I'm Batman" Man that never gets old.

    0:29 to 0:44 is my favorite part. It's just so perfectly filmed, acted and captures the essence of Batman.
  • @a7xfan148
    now imagine if danny elfman and john williams worked together on a score
  • “I want you to tell all of your friends about me.” “Who are you?” “I’m Batman.”
