Batman: Mask of the Phantasm/Awesome

• The final scene, pure and simple. Seeing Bruce stand on the building edge looking out into the night and knowing that he is and always will be Batman. Then the music swells up and the bat signal lights up the sky. Bob Kane's vision perfectly displayed.
• By the same note, the birth of Batman. The awesome music mixed with a simultaneous usage of Tear Jerker makes it probably the most incredible showing of his first donning of the cowl ever.
  • In universe, it's the moment when Bruce finally obtains what he needs to strike fear into his enemies.
• The opening is purely awesome!
• The fact that Siskel and Ebert gave the movie "2 thumbs up" and -almost- gave them good reason to turn their backs on the Animation Age Ghetto.
