- DirectorCurt GedaJennifer GravesTim MaltbyStarsKevin ConroyKimberly BrooksKelly RipaThe Dark Knight must contend with a mysterious female vigilante who emulates him, but to a more ruthless degree.Batman: The animated series tie in films
or, part of the "The New Batman Adventures", which is basically just the name for one of the seasons in Batman: The animated series. - DirectorCurt GedaStarsWill FriedleMark HamillKevin ConroyThe Joker is back with a vengeance, and Gotham's newest Dark Knight needs answers as he stands alone to face Gotham's most infamous Clown Prince of Crime.Tie in film to the Batman Beyond series, which is itself a follow up and linked to Batman: The animated series. So essentially, it's part of the Batman: The animated series tie in films.
- DirectorSam LiuStarsElyes GabelDiane GuerreroKevin ConroyThe Justice League battles the Fatal Five, (Tharok, Emerald Empress, Validus, Mano and the Persuader). Based on the characters created by Jim Shooter.
- DirectorSam LiuStarsKevin ConroyMark HamillTara StrongAs Batman hunts for the escaped Joker, the Clown Prince of Crime attacks the Gordon family to prove a diabolical point mirroring his own fall into madness.While not formally connected to any other film series, but only to the, controversial, story from the comic of the same name. But as it features Mark Hamill as the Joker, I've put it together with the Batman: The animated series films and it's follow-ups as Mark Hamill also portrayed the Joker in them.
In in-story progression, this would be before Batman Beyond, but since it's connection to the universe is looser and debatable, unlike Batman Beyond, I place it here. - DirectorSam LiuStarsKevin ConroyMelissa RauchPaget BrewsterBatman and Nightwing are forced to team with the Joker's sometimes-girlfriend Harley Quinn to stop a global threat brought about by Poison Ivy and Jason Woodrue, the Floronic Man.Partly a joke, it does seem to follow more or less from the Batman: The Animated Series with satirical references to several other Batman series, including the original live-actors TV series.
In in-story progression, this would be before Batman Beyond, but since it's connection to the universe is looser and debatable, unlike Batman Beyond, I place it here. - DirectorMichael GoguenTae Ho HanSeung Eun KimStarsRino RomanoPeter StormareTara StrongBatman faces off against the original creature of the night, Count Dracula, who has been unintentionally resurrected by the Penguin.A one of tie in to "The Batman" series.
- DirectorYasuhiro AokiFutoshi HigashideToshiyuki KubookaStarsKevin ConroyJason MarsdenScott MenvilleA collection of key events mark Bruce Wayne's life as he journeys from beginner to Dark Knight.An anthology not directly related to the other movie series.
- DirectorBrandon ViettiStarsBruce GreenwoodJensen AcklesJohn DiMaggioThere's a mystery afoot in Gotham City, and Batman must go toe-to-toe with a mysterious vigilante, who goes by the name of Red Hood. Subsequently, old wounds reopen and old, once buried memories come into the light.
- DirectorEthan SpauldingStarsJason O'MaraStuart AllanThomas GibsonBatman learns he has a violent, unruly pre-teen son, secretly raised by the terrorist group the League of Assassins.The animation style and especially Nightwing is very similar to "Under the Red Hood" so it might be seen as following the same series, although it is never made clear and the actors are not the same.
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsStuart AllanTroy BakerKevin ConroyWhile Damian Wayne struggles to cope with Batman's no-killing rule, he soon starts to believe that his destiny lies within a secret society known as, The Court of Owls.Continues the story of "Son of Batman" (more or less).
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsJason O'MaraYvonne StrahovskiStuart AllanBruce Wayne is missing. Alfred covers for him while Nightwing and Robin patrol Gotham City in his stead. And a new player, Batwoman, investigates Batman's disappearance.Continues the story of the Batman version featuring Damian Wayne from Son of Batman.
- DirectorSam LiuStarsRosario DawsonChristopher GorhamShemar MooreRobin is sent to work with the Teen Titans after his volatile behavior botches a Justice League mission. The Titans must then face Trigon after he possesses the League and threatens to conquer the world.I put it after "Bad Blood" since Damian Wayne is a character.
But from here on, it seems to actually connect the "Damian Wayne series" and the Justice League series since "War".
Characters are drawn similar and small parts of the stories seems to align. Although the connection is still weak. - DirectorSam LiuStarsClancy BrownKevin ConroyTim DalyWhen Lex Luthor gets elected US President, he uses the threat of an oncoming kryptonite meteor striking Earth as a rationale to frame Superman.Superman/Batman film series.
- DirectorLauren MontgomeryStarsAndre BraugherKevin ConroyTim DalyBatman discovers a mysterious teen-aged girl with super-human powers and a connection to Superman. When the girl comes to the attention of Darkseid, the evil overlord of Apokolips, events take a decidedly dangerous turn.Superman/Batman film series.
- DirectorSam LiuLauren MontgomeryStarsBryan CranstonBen McKenzieEliza DushkuA wealthy playboy and a Chicago cop both return to Gotham City where their lives will intersect in unexpected ways.Frank Millers Batman series.
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsPeter WellerAriel WinterDavid SelbyBatman has not been seen for ten years. A new breed of criminal ravages Gotham City, forcing 55-year-old Bruce Wayne back into the cape and cowl. But, does he still have what it takes to fight crime in a new era?Frank Millers Batman series.
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsPeter WellerAriel WinterMichael EmersonThe Batman has returned after a 10-year absence. The Gotham authorities want to arrest him. An old foe wants a reunion. The Feds want the Man of Tomorrow to put a stop to him.Frank Millers Batman series.
- DirectorDave BullockStarsDavid BoreanazMiguel FerrerNeil Patrick HarrisIn the 1950s, a new generation of superheroes must join forces with the community's active veterans and a hostile US government to fight a menace to Earth.Justice League film series.
- DirectorSam LiuLauren MontgomeryStarsWilliam BaldwinMark HarmonChris NothA good version of Lex Luthor from a parallel Earth comes to the Justice League's dimension for help to fight their evil counterparts.Justice League film series.

He thaws out in the 31st century, discovers Time Trapper and prevents Superman's arrival to Earth as a baby. Future teen heroes Karate Kid and Dawnstar must stop him.Justice League film series. Although it could be debated how much it ties in with the other Justice League films, but since there are no other "Justice League Adventures" films, I tie it in here. Also, it could be debated how much the other Justice League films are connected in the first place!
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsSean AstinZach CallisonChristopher GorhamThe world's finest heroes found the Justice League in order to stop an alien invasion of Earth.Justice League film series. From here on the Justice League films can be seen to clearly follow each other, at times literally back-to-back in story progression. In this perspective, "War" can also be seen as possible a reboot and therefore as the first in the series, with no connection to the earlier Justice League films. It can also be argued that is connects, at first loosely, later more directly, with the "Son of Batman" series.
- DirectorEthan SpauldingStarsSean AstinRosario DawsonNathan FillionWhen Atlantian troops assault Metropolis as revenge for the death of their king, the Queen seeks help from the Justice League to find her son who has gone missing during the madness.Justice League film series. Follows directly from "War".
- DirectorJay OlivaStarsMatt RyanCamilla LuddingtonJason O'MaraBeings with supernatural powers join together to fight against supernatural villains. This team of supernatural beings include John Constantine, Zatanna and Jason Blood also known as the demon Etrigan.Seems to follow from the "War" series.
- DirectorJon BurtonStarsClancy BrownTroy BakerChristopher Corey SmithWhen the Joker and Lex Luthor form an alliance, Batman must team up with the Justice League in order to stop them.Lego Batman series.
- DirectorPhil LordChristopher MillerStarsChris PrattWill FerrellElizabeth BanksAn ordinary LEGO construction worker, thought to be the prophesied as "special", is recruited to join a quest to stop an evil tyrant from gluing the LEGO universe into eternal stasis.Lego Batman series. Although it isn't that closely related to the other Lego Batman films, I presume they are connected simply by being part of the lego universe. And the Batman character is very similar.
- DirectorRick MoralesStarsDee Bradley BakerTroy BakerJohn DiMaggioSuperman wants Batman to join his new superhero team, but Batman prides himself on being a self-sufficient loner.Lego Batman series.
- DirectorBrandon ViettiStarsDiedrich BaderTroy BakerJohn DiMaggioIt's up to the Justice League to team up with their bizarre counterparts to stop Darkseid and save the galaxy!Lego Batman series. Follows directly after Lego Batman Be-Leaguered.

- DirectorChris McKayStarsWill ArnettMichael CeraRosario DawsonA cooler-than-ever Bruce Wayne must deal with the usual suspects as they plan to rule Gotham City, while discovering that he has accidentally adopted a teenage orphan who wishes to become his sidekick.Lego Batman series. In a satirical way, it is also connected to all other Batman films, at least the live-action films (family portrait clip where Alfred refers to the other movies).
