KNIGHTMARE: MAN OR BAT (Batman VS Manbat Fan Film)

[@Grizzly_Viking_Gorilla]

I don’t know if you guys remember me. I was the one who repeatedly rewatched the first film You guys did when I was on dialysis. I am now 3 years in with a healthy kidney transplant and have shared your film so many times at the local toy shop I work at. Now I’m so excited to watch this and have others watch it with me!!! Thank you guys for these absolute works of art y’all have made. Really hit home for me and I just absolutely love them!!

[@mexicanbatman8157]

My dad also has to deal with dialysis, but is afraid if he gets a transplant that would go out, you have any advice??

[@Grizzly_Viking_Gorilla]

@@mexicanbatman8157 I highly recommend getting a transplant. It is very scary I agree and hiccups can happen. But with a proper diet. Taking the medication accordingly and keeping up with blood work and doctors appointments life can be so much easier with the transplant. My quality of life has improved so much since I’ve had mine. If you have any other questions just hit me up!

What's the song at the end

[@MartinSmith]

THE moment BatMan realizes his foot is caught in the snare for the ManBAT!! PRICELESS !!

[@thearthurmarston9897]

The blue and gray Noel suit is straight FIRE 😮‍💨

[@FatTonyGamez]

I tear up once batman started speaking sign language

[@thewheyoflife3548]

Also, the CGI was pretty damn good considering the budget wasn’t a blockbuster film budget. I must say, I was laughing when Batman got his leg caught, but there was some really good camera shots, like with the moon scene. I love it

[@JamesMakesFilms]

From someone who made several Batman fan films, I’m impressed. I never imagined being able to pull off Man-Bat and your team delivered. Some really cool visuals here.

[@palmdrive9373]

Thanks for watching!🙌

[@adityasurve8106]

Knightmare is a highly anticipated Batman Fan Series by Palm Drive Production. You guys are Batman fans doing masterpiece work for Batman fans. This fan series is outstanding in the plot, direction, writing, performance, especially VFX and sound effects, all of them out of the box. All of the cast performed outstandingly, especially in the role of Batman. Now, I'm waiting for the next. I highly appreciate you both guys. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@Austroid]

Came back to say the shot of Batman free-falling through the stormy clouds is cinematic perfection!

[@michealclark928]

Please keep making more! These are top tier fan films. Vastly superior then most. Between your fan films and the fan films pumped out by “Bat in the Sun” there’s really no other creators on this scale.

[@palmdrive9373]

We appreciate the comparison! We're not the big channel they are so every like, comment, and subscriber means a lot for us. Thank you!

[@michealclark928]

Please please please be the hero we need, but not the one we deserve, and make a feature-length film with this level of high quality!!!!!

Batman’s suit is sick

[@JackDeeWizard]

This is by far the best Batman Fan Film on the internet! You can see by the execution of the acting, CGI and cinematography how much passion went into this! Well done to everyone

[@palmdrive9373]

Much appreciated! Help us reach new viewers with a share!

[@quintork4100]

yes mate its a true bat film!

[@LeponicStudios]

@@palmdrive9373 How can the CG artists that worked on this be reached?

[@skobywankenobi]

This was really solid all in all. The bat suit I had issues with but given the budget you were working with, you genuinely pulled off an amazing batman story

[@averyspencer4483]

Your series is better then anything Hollywood has done since Batman Returns. Cant wait to see the next one!!!

[@Edward_Nashton]

Damn I hate it that it's so short (I know production takes time, money, work, blood sweat and tears) but this is so incredibly amazing I really want to see more. The Arkham Knight vibe in ManBat was so goddamn satisfying. The animation is better than some hollywood productions you guys are awesome! Hope there will be more no matter how long I have to wait for it! It's it worth every time!

[@indianajones575]

That was excellent, can’t believe how good Man-Bat and the rest of Gotham looked!

[@terrenceprince8735]

This was great work. Ppl don’t realize how hard it is to get a decent budget just for fan-fiction films. Y’all did a phenomenal job. Keep it coming

[@palmdrive9373]

We'll make more someday. It takes a lot for us to manage all this on a tight budget but we're good at it and we love doing it. Thanks for commenting!

[@RaptorJesus]

Really appreciate the fact your Batman makes mistakes. Too often we get "Batgod", where even his seeming mistakes were all part of his master plan. Just also loved this in general. I was afraid the CGI was going to be distracting, but honestly? Pretty damn good. I like that you leaned into it not being photo-realistic, and instead just decided to just make it look as good as possible even if you had to stylize it a bit. Really, really enjoyed this.

[@palmdrive9373]

Thank you Raptor Jesus 🙏

[@lazymorris5293]

This was amazing the fight scene with Man Bat and Batman blew me away! It makes me want to see Man Bat in the live action films there’s no excuse.

[@thessj3752]

Holy shit this was good, the acting, the production value, the cgi was surprisingly great for a fan film, and the plot twist that langstroms wife became man bat was genius, great job you got a new sub

[@palmdrive9373]

Thanks for watching! Keep sharing our video and help us reach new subs!

[@CoffeeFilms17]

God I’ve missed you guys!!!!! It’s so good to see you all again! Hope you’re all doing well and staying safe. Thank you for telling such incredible tales!

Check us out ;) Our Batman series launches later this year

[@palmdrive9373]

We missed you too! Thanks for being patient and supporting our channel!

[@2004SUBARUWRX]

Damien Chinappi does play a good Batman

[@jackvanpelt9812]

The Red Hood scene was awesome, but a little out of Character. Jason may be brutal, but he doesn’t kill just anyone who picks a fight with him. His whole motive is “let the punishment fit the crime”

[@nocturnaldreamzz]

Take of two robins? Nice I’m gonna check notifications every day

[@cmccorquodale2003]

Seriously great job brining Man-Bat to life!

[@super_suits253]

Holy shit! Better than Bat in the Sun, Man bat looks fucking Awesome!!!!

[@xChris_Kentx]

I've missed you all also! This was a great treat after the Super Bowl! Excellent job as always.

[@thedtvdigest4142]

This was awesome! A real solid slice of Batman in keeping with the best adaptations. And the Red Hood short as a bonus was the icing on the cake.

[@luisclaudio3576]

You want one live action oficial as nightmare man or Bat?

[@markcraft]

This is fucking epic this fan film is amazing A+ 100% job well done better than the Hollywood movies we see nowadays

[@Ty-202]

Woah, I wasn’t expecting to see this in my inbox already 😳

[@andytay5507]

That was exquisite! You need to use this as your resume to the Hollywood full feature films.

[@IHatfield]

awesome CGI visual works guys! and digging the universe you created! Keep this up!!!!

[@Lou_theblue]

You guys are absolute goats. I like the writing, the fresh but comic book accurate way you treat these characters, the effects, basically everything. To be honest this one feels a little slow, especially the Red Hood fight scene, but overall these are the best fan films I've ever seen so far. Keep it up!

[@paperstacksfilms]

And my only gripe about the suit is the way the cowl goes in to the symbol and it's separate from the suit but still its own unique look so I don't hate it completely. Tht homage to batman 89 with the moonshot was beautiful. Love this seriously you guys have bat in the sun beat.

[@autisticshakespearianyo]

This was a smooth transition from the last part into this new chapter of Red Hood's Arc. Really digging this story!

[@ykarus9343]

9:05 Jason needs your help, man! Come on! I know that's a good position but your son is about to blow up, Bruce! GET UP!

[@delobiye1456]

Wow!! I've watched big budget movies that can't compete with this. ManBat looked great!!

[@ericshelley7241]

Wow you guys are amazing. I would love to see what you all could do with a huge budget. I stumbled across this channel tonight and I love it. I have been binge watching your movies. Some of the best batman movies I have ever seen. Up there with Burton and Nolan,just incredible. Here is some the cast I would use if I was a film maker making a batman film.... Scott Adkins as batman...BREN foster as Deathstroke.... Mat mulins as Robin...mark hamil or William Dafoe as the joker...John Hamm as two- face...Jackie earl Haley as scarecrow...Nathan Jones as killer croc...johnny depp the riddler...Bryan Cranston as c. Gordon...viggo martsen as man bat...I still don't know who I would cast as the penguin though

[@palmdrive9373]

Truth be told, Scott Adkins was the first actor we reached out to play Batman. He passed lol. But I like your casting picks! I’d watch for sure 👍

[@chrisberatis2612]

I absolutely enjoyed this Batman fan film Palm Drive Productions the sets, the costumes, the writing, the direction, the editing, the visual effects, and the music is fantastic. I hope you eventually make a Tim Drake Robin fan film based on his popular comic book series of the same name now that would be awesome if you can do that because he’s my favorite character from the Bat Family.

[@solitaire8585]

This is brilliant! Sophisticated and very true to the spirit of the character, but not overly done and drenched in melodrama like a lot of adaptations tend to be. Batman is a serious character and an incredibly driven man, but he’s not Eyeore. This is closer to the Conroy animated adaptation, which is for me, the gold standard. Very well done… I would love to see you take on the reaper from Batman year two, which remains one of my favorite Batman stories

[@ubil727]

Thank you for this! I really enjoyed it! Please make more!!

[@darriemartin9048]

You all know how to deliver

[@Levsmister]

Well done. Need more work on music tho. The chase scene music was kinda too funky ahahha makes me dance instead of thrill BTW props on making it Rated R

[@greendestroyer4651]

This is the really good I would watch full length movie of this

[@tonyantonellis9983]

[@amberwebb4589]

This is absolutely amazing!!!

[@paperstacksfilms]

Wow just wow. The only thing bat in the sun has over anything you guys do is a better batsuot and an actor who physically looks more like Batman. But storyline, production value CGI and locations are all top notch. You set the new bar for fan films dude love it

this is awesome good sg for a youtube budget i loved this

Nice work on "Woman-Bat" and Red Hood.

[@FoxAttaak]

This was awesome.

[@thewheyoflife3548]

I think that these are all absolutely incredible, but I must say, my one critique is the suit, it could be just me, but I just don’t like the blue on a Batman costume, it takes away from his darkness. But I must say it makes for cooler art covers. Nonetheless, amazing fan film series, KEEP IT UP

[@quintork4100]

the blue of the batsuit is based on john boltons beautful manbat the design of the mask is spot on and a homage to an amazing comic!

[@Parker_Luck394]

What a fantastic short! Iv'e been hoping to see more from your take on the character. Other than the crazy level of skills and competence in putting all of this togheter, I love the amount of nuhances that you put into rapresenting Batman. He's not just a stoic vigilante, a tormented man in search for symbolic revenge, or a hero who brings justice, because he's all of those things combined and even more. A very classic and interesting version of the character. Hats off to everyone involved, and I particularly enjoyed the Matches Malone scene, truly unexpected and so fun!

[@palmdrive9373]

There’s a line we cut from the opening monologue, quote: “So I stay the course, fettered to the moral mast I call justice, I hear her monstrous wail and I weep for us…” My main interpretation of Bruce is that he clings to his code. It’s what keeps him sane in an insane world. And the more I challenge that code, the more interesting he becomes. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!

[@isaiahwoodley8774]
