Synopsis

In *Batman: The Animated Series*, Batman and his sidekick Robin work to thwart the sinister plans of a collection of deranged new villains, most notably the melancholic Mr. Freeze, who seeks to turn Gotham City into an arctic region, and the sultry Poison Ivy, a botanical femme fatale. As the Dynamic Duo face these adversaries, a third hero, Batgirl, joins the ranks of the city's defenders.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 105+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

Box Office

1997 · Box office

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.9× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
