Batman (1989) Trivia Questions

1. What continuity error arises between the two actors who play Jack Napier?

From Quiz
The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: Different coloured eyes.

The two actors to play Jack Napier are Jack Nicholson and Hugo Blick. Hugo's eyes are blue whereas Jack's eyes are brown.

2. One of the robbers from the beginning of the movie was talking about a mutual friend, "getting ripped and walking off a roof." The other robber said that "The Bat" got him. What was the name of the friend that fell off the roof?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Johnny Gobs

Remember the family walking around Gotham City at the very beginning of the movie? This fine family was mugged by two street punks. Later these muggers went on top of a roof in the city to sort out the money. While they were sorting out the loot before Batman showed up, they were talking about whether Batman was real or not. One of the muggers said that, "The bat got him", but the other mugger quickly dismissed that idea and said he walked off the roof.

3. Who directed the movie "Batman"(1989)?

From Quiz Test Your Knowledge of "Batman"

Answer: Tim Burton

Tim Burton also directed "Batman Returns" and was a producer for "Batman Forever". Some of his other movies are "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Corpse Bride".

4. How many pounds does Vicki Vale tell Batman that she weighs?

From Quiz "Batman" 1989

Answer: 108 lbs

She tells Batman this before he shoots his grappling hook up onto the catwalk between two buildings before his fight with the Joker's goons. After Batman wins the fight, he corrects Vicki by telling her that she does not weigh 108lbs.

6. At the beginning of the film, we see a crowd of people and the action starts with a man, his wife and his young boy. Who are these people?

From Quiz The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: Jimmy the tourist and his parents

These characters are never used again in the film. Tim Burton's original intention was to trick people into thinking he was twisting the origin story of Bruce Wayne into Batman. Instead, the scene where they go into an alleyway and get mugged is to provide Batman with villains to fight before the main action against The Joker begins.

7. Harvey Dent was the D.A. in Gotham City. In this movie he was campaigning to fight a war on crime in Gotham. Who played Harvey Dent?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Billy Dee Williams

This character later became Two Face in "Batman Forever". Billy Dee Williams signed a contract with a clause that he was to play Two-Face in the sequel. However, the producers wanted Tommy Lee Jones for the role and bought out Williams' contract.

8. Who wrote all the songs for the "Batman" soundtrack?

10. What streets are near the alley where Bruce's parents were killed?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Pearl and Phillips

Vicki Vale asks Knox to find out what happened in the alley.

11. What is Batman's first line?

From Quiz The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: "I'm not going to kill you."

Batman says this as he is kindly dangling one of the thugs from a rooftop. He asks the thug to spread rumours about him by saying, "Tell all your friends about me," before then saying the infamous line, "I'm Batman." The thug is then thrown back onto the rooftop as a now CGI Batman falls to the streets below.

12. One of Knox's fellow reporters handed him a sketch of a bat creature wearing a suit. On the corner of the picture was the name of the artist. Who did the drawing of the picture?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Bob Kane

Bob Kane did create and draw the comics so he should be the one to draw the bat picture. At the bottom of the picture it was signed "Bob Kane". A couple of the other options mentioned do have extensive art talent. Frank Miller wrote the comic book "The Dark Night Returns". Tim Burton originally wanted to do a movie based on that comic but the studio wouldn't allow it. H.R. Giger was the conceptual character designer of the aliens in the "Alien" movie franchise. Alex Ross has drawn many comic books and comic characters including "Batman" comics.

13. What does Batman use, in Vicki's apartment, to protect himself from the Joker's bullet?

From Quiz Test Your Knowledge of "Batman"

Answer: Tray

While Bruce Wayne is visiting Vicki, the Joker breaks into her apartment. Then Bruce sneaks into Vicki's bedroom to find something to use as a shield. He finds a tray and put it under his coat, so when he goes in to stand up to the Joker, the tray gets shot instead of him.

14. According to Bruce Wayne, why was Alfred so important to him?

From Quiz "Batman" 1989

Answer: Bruce could not find his socks without Alfred

Bruce says this to Vicki jokingly after Alfred tells an embarrassing story of how Bruce hurt himself during his first and last riding lesson.

15. Who did the instrumental music in the movie?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Danny Elfman

Watch the opening or ending credits. Prince sings the songs featured in the movie. Eliot Goldenthal did the instrumental music in 'Batman Forever' and 'Batman and Robin'. Coolio has a small role in 'Batman and Robin'.

16. What is The Joker's first line?

From Quiz The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: "Mirror."

This line occurs soon after we see The Joker's hand rising from the sewers. In this scene, the cosmetic surgeon who has been working on him has ultimately failed in his job and severed all the nerves in Napier's body. It's at this point that he demands to see a mirror, before laughing maniacally and leaving the room.

17. Bruce Wayne was helped by his faithful butler Alfred. Which actor played Alfred in the movie?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Michael Gough

Michael Gough played the faithful Alfred in this movie and was credited as Alfred Pennyworth in "Batman and Robin" and "Batman Forever". In this movie, the Joker's name was Jack Napier. This was a tribute to the actor Alan Napier, the actor who played Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred on the original TV show. Alan Napier passed away two months before production started. Oddly, in the "Batman" comics they never revealed the Joker's real name he was just known as The Red Hood.

18. What is Vicki's last name?

From Quiz Test Your Knowledge of "Batman"

Answer: Vale

It mentions her last name in "Batdance", which is a song on the "Batman" soundtrack. We also hear it a few times in the movie. Vicki Vale is a reporter who reports on Batman and his villains. She is also Batman/Bruce Wayne's love interest in the story and you see the emotional roller coaster of their relationship.

19. Which actress was originally cast as Vicki Vale?

From Quiz "Batman" 1989

Answer: Sean Young

Sean Young was injured during the early filming stages of "Batman". She broke her collarbone in a scene where Bruce and Vicki are riding horses together. Sean would also eventually break onto the set of "Batman Returns" in hopes of winning the role of Catwoman.

20. Where does Jack Napier become the Joker?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: Axis Chemical

He fell into a vat of acid. Batman tried to save him but couldn't.

21. What is The Joker's last line?

From Quiz The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: "Sometimes I just kill myself!"

The Joker's last line occurs about five or so minutes after Batman's last line. This is when The Joker has almost won, and is being taken away by his 'Joker-copter', before Batman gets his own back by tying the Joker's leg to a near-by statue on the rooftop. When the camera is turning and zooming onto the 'dead' Joker's body, if you look close enough you can see Jack Nicholson blinking.

22. What number apartment did Vikki live in?

From Quiz Batman

Answer: 9

Vikki Vale was an investigative photo-journalist who fell for Batman. At one point Bruce Wayne decided to go to Vikki's apartment to tell her he was Batman.

23. What was the name of the country where Vicki Vale had been taking war pictures?

From Quiz "Batman" 1989

Answer: Corto Maltese

Corto Maltese is an island country in Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns".

24. How many bullets does Joker use when he kills Carl Grissom?

From Quiz Batman

Joker uses all the bullets. The gun he had was a magnum, it only holds 6 bullets.

25. What is Batman's last line?

From Quiz The "Batman" Challenge

Answer: "I made you, but you made me first."

Very strangely, Batman's last spoken line is about 20 minutes before the end of the film as he's fighting with the Joker at the top of the bell tower. This is in reference to The Joker shooting his parents and Batman accidentally making Jack Napier fall into the vat of chemicals near the beginning of the film. Batman makes a very small appearance at the end of the film standing on a building.

26. Who did the musical score for "Batman"?

From Quiz Batman

Danny Elfman is very good at doing music for movies. He was also the frontman for Oingo Boingo. Oingo Boingo did songs for "Back to School" and "Weird Science". Danny Elfman also did the scores for "A Nightmare Before Christmas", "Spiderman," and "Red Dragon".
