Whats the point of all those pushups if you cant even lift a bloody log
The look Bruce gave him I can't lol
Lol
A literal burn lol
*Do you even lift, Master Wayne*
Damn bruce was literally being roasted XD
"I sewed you up, I set your bones, but I won't bury you. I buried enough members of the Wayne family." 😔
DeathmatchIcon this quote hits hard
He’s more than a butler. He’s a father😭
@@mr.l8723 He did basically raise him. Butler may be a job title but thats not why he stayed with Bruce
This hit me first when Alfred tried to leave that one time in Telltale Batman season 2.
Poor alfred
Michael Caine was so good as Alfred
Saints row and mass effect 4 life The best.
Saints row and mass effect 4 life The very besttt
Hes good as anything
Of course. He's Michael Caine.
To be fair Michael Caine is brilliant in pretty much every role he plays...
Take note "Justice League". The humor in these scenes. THAT is how you do it. Not goofy one-liners and silly asides. You do humor that comes from the characters and the situations and actually adds to the story and characters.
blame dc for forcing more humor in it
Actually I blame most of Hollywood for it... they think those silly one-liner jokes are the only way to humor.
M P S we laughed at one avengers movie 6 years ago and now all super hero movies are wearing silly mustache glasses. Shitty formulas cannot be replicated
Justice League was still far better than Man of Steel and Dawn of Justice. Also, comics are filled with goofy one-liners and silly asides.
@@SmashLiXs I'll blame joss whedon for it actually, along with all of Warner Bros and their studio interferences
0:25 "You can borrow the Rolls, if you like. Just bring it back with a full tank."
Anakin SkyWalker 😂😂
Bruce: Full tank... Tank... Tank. Holy shit I had a fucking brilliant idea
Sassy Alfred is the best Alfred.
What about when he said, The Lamborghini then much more subtle
OMG all of the yes!!!
Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox were two of the best casting choices in the entire history of the Batman franchise! Love it!!! 😃👍
Here even the side characters cast are loved
@LordKhabal - Fact. xD
Agree
I am shocked nobody talks about heath
Yeah. But on the third movie I was kinda like "fuck you Alfred" a little bit after he went all grandma.
Sir Michael Caine will always be the best Alfred Pennysworth that this franchise has to offer.
Amen. End of discussion.
That's not how you spell "Efram Zimbalist Jr" and "Alastair Duncan".
@@ObserveVideo Imagine live action DC fans thinking they have the best version of anything. Come on over to animated DC when you're ready to see some real top quality stuff.
I rewatched BB and TDK the other day. I'd forgotten how much warmth and humor was in Bruce and Alfred's relationship. Caine and Bale were fantastic. Makes a few of the scenes is Rises all the more heart wrenching (I may have blubbed in the cinema during Alfred's resignation).
Alfred Pennyworth, you deserve a medal or a knighthood!
Probably off topic, but fun fact about Christian Bale: Despite having played New Yorkers (knowing how Gotham is basically New York), he’s actually Welsh. It may say that he’s English when you look him up, but he’s Welsh.
This entire trilogy have all the best castings they could possible do for these characters, from the magnificent Morgan Freeman and Lucius Fox, the legendary Gary Oldman as Commissioner Gordon, to Sir Michael Caine impossible to beat Alfred Pennyworth....there is just so many amazing quotes, scenes and incredible performances in this trilogy that will be impossible for any Batman film in the future to beat this 3 films.
Kusanagikaiser999 Heath's Joker was too.
@@samuilvalchev3803 His joker was good because of him, had it been almost any other iconic villan played the same way, it would also have been good. Most consider the joker to be different than Heath's portrayal however, like Mark Hamill's joker (and similar versions).
Tbh! I can’t understand what the heck went wrong after this trilogy for Batman Franchise… they had and still could’ve outdone Marvel big time but no they had to ruin it all. This trilogy is the best thing happen to DC universe 🥰
" Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn." - Alfred
One of Sir Michael's best lines ever
Michael Caine's Alfred is easily the best version in the franchise, his version had the most character development and his chemistry with Christian Bale enhanced his portrayal in the movies!
Nope, Efram Zimbalist Jr and Alastair Duncan are.
"Some men want to watch the world burn"
Sav Setefano sends a chill down my spine
Me
Shum min just wawnt to watch the werld bern.
Sorry 2 be that guy but it is "some men just want to watch the world burn."
"We burned the Forest Down"
Sends shivers down the spine
Harvey Dent: you've known Rachel her whole life
Alfred: well, not yet..... :)
Alfred knows too much
Foreshadowing hard
Harvey Dent: Any psychotic ex boyfriends I should be aware of?
Alfred: You have no idea
Just before his boss arrives🤔
Sir Michael Caine is a Legend.
Is he more than just a Man, did he Devote himself to an Ideal, is he Unstoppable
Mycocaine nailed the role...
"Why do we fall? So we can learn to pick ourselves up"
Amazing quote I've loved. My interpretation of it (which can be different to yours) is that you WILL make mistakes, you are not perfect, but if you see and acknowledge your failures you can grow and become better.
How you start is not important, it's how you end.
Slight nit pick: Thomas Wayne made the "why do we fall ?"quote to a young Bruce Wayne.
Alfred as his pseudo father is the only person who can repeat it.
Yes! You’ve interpreted perfectly.
Jeremy Irons is a pretty good Alfred, but he doesn’t compare to Caine
Its sad, because I really think Jeremy Irons could do an amazing Alfred, the little we got from him was excellent, but sadly under the awful hands of Goyer and Snyder, it was impossible for him to equal this amazing performance of Sir Michael Caine.....I wonder if Nolan would have directing him as Alfred how different things would have been.
The thing is we had no emotional connection with Irons Alfred and Bruce. Just them arguing. Looked as if he was a politician or chief of police and not someone who did not care for him since he was a little boy
@@dariushcreates You can blame writing and the directing w/ the DCEU for that.
He didn’t get a chance to give a definitive portrayal.
Marcus Panem Michael Caine is the one and only Alfred.
We all need someone like Alfred beside us
Its not the lines that made him the best, its his delivery.
Watching this after watching The Batman. Michael Caine is still the best Alfred on my book. His delivery is always so sincere, wise, warm, and moving.
Same, I don’t think anyone will ever be able to top his alfred
@@stevenponcedeleon5068 Efram. Zimbalist. Jr. Alastair. Duncan.
Michael Caine left some huge shoes to fill and I don't think anyone will fill those shoes as alfred
Does anyone think otherwise? Nolan's Alfred is the most fleshed-out cinematic Alfred we've ever seen. He was the central emotional pillar with some of the best lines in the whole trilogy. Caine was set up to succeed with this, but he not only succeeded, he gave us the most iconic Alfred ever.
Michael Caine is my Alfred
Alfred means "elf" +"counsel"
I always felt like Michael Caine was the natural choice to step into Dumbledore's shoes after Richard Harris' death. He has this authoritative, grandfatherly warmth that just feels right.

The casting in this trilogy is superb. Morgan freedman outstanding, Michael Caine perfect, Heath ledger what do I need to say, Aaron eckhart amazing, Gary oldman, Christian Bale, Tom hardy,liam neeson and cillian Murphy all outstanding
Where is gray oldman probs 🤦♂️
Other than Heath as Joker this was the best casting in the trilogy.
Then probably Gary oldman, those are the top 3
What made him the absolute best wasn't just his Masterful Acting, but the fact that he served in Combat for the 1st Fusiliers in Korea which left him with some mental scarring on how easily Communist China and North Korea would throw away Lives as if their soldiers were nothing but scraps off of their plates. His "World Burning" Speech was literally genuine as his Beliefs were from personal experience
🙄
No they wouldn't, lmfao. You can say all you want about China, but their red army from the revolution onwards was a scrappy, resilient, and highly effective fighting force that gave Westerners hell to deal with.
The entire saga trilogy is loaded with brilliant casting choices. Caine was epic. These lines, and the entire monologues they come from.
I love how he refers to their mistakes as "trying to outsmart the truth." Showing the folly in it, and that he understands he's made his own.
And of course, the "watch the world burn" quote is a piece of history by now. From an amazing monologue.
It was heart-breaking, that he had to spend time thinking Bruce was dead. To watch Alfred suffer like that, after so much dedication. Fortunately, for us that bitterness only lasts a few moments. He gets his wish fulfilled. He knows Bruce is now finally moving on to a better life, after doing so much for others.
Batman wouldn't be half the powerhouse he is, without Alfred by his side. Wise, steadfast.
Michael Cain is the best Alfred because he can speak with a English accent
Cockney
Cause he IS English 😂
Bcuz he is british.Like a Comic Version of Alfred.accurate
Probably because he is English?
Why am I crying in the club rn
The Dark Knight would be nothing without the Snark Knight.
Excellent choice....👍
I loved Alfred's solution to the Burma Bandit. "We burned the entire forest down"
Can you do X quotes that prove Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze was the most terribly amazing Batman villain
Hunter Brown We already did ;)
Ah! I'll have to go find it! Thanks!
Michael Caine took the role as Alfred and completely owned it...
love Michael Caine
man i still know how i nearly started crying at the end of the dark knight rises bc of alfred best memories
WAS no, still IS.
Master Bruce, you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!!
Does he say it in Batman?
@@Jason-om2cg Lol I don't think so. Just putting together some of his legendary roles into one sentence.
Alfred understood the symbol of Batman more than the person who wore it.
This video proves Alfred’s primary purpose in the Nolan series was to convince Batman he should keep being Batman.
If we only have a butler like him at home...wait a sec,I am a butler in my home.
Omg whenever this guy(Alfred) cries... Tears used to shed from my eyes what a character development. 💖
Nothing will top Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine's performances. Nothing.
Michael Caine and Sean Pertwee are the best Alfred's in my opinion.
Michael Crane’s Alfred represents the love of a parent who watched his troubled son grow up and a mentor. Sean Pertwee’s Alfred represents a parent trying to help out a troubled child. I feel like both of these Alfred’s are the same, but in different time periods.
What about Michael Gough? The Alfred in the Burton films?
@@MrPjw5 he’s good but not to the extent of Michael Caine
Animated Alfreds looking at this and shaking their heads, going "look what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power".
This trilogy did something to me. Whenever anyone says "Alfred Pennyworth", I immediately think of Michael Cane
Michael Caine's Alfred is the only Alfed I can picture that would have spent his younger days running around with the likes of David Stirling and Paddy Mayne.
Michael Caine put so much love in his lines to Bruce, he made me feel like his the uncle we all need
Not uncle but grandpa to me cuz I'm 16 yrs old
British accent is the best
Harvey: You're Alfred, right? Rachel talks about you all the time. You've known her for her whole life"
Alfred: Not yet, sir
Oof 😬
tdk trilogy had the best commissioner gordon, the best alfred, the best joker and the smartest batman
Much like Heath Ledger as the Joker, Michael Caine set the bar so high as Alfred.
Mark Hamill IS Joker.
In the title of this video, you forgot the word ‘Ever.’ at the end.
Ugh.. #6! My feels!
Batman: Alfred how do I get into this bank?
Alfred: You blow the bloody doors off Master Wayne.
~Batman accidentally blow up the whole bank~
Alfred: You're only suppose to blow the bloody doors off!
:P
Did that actually happen?
He never played Alfred he IS Alfred
Michael Caine is indeed the best Alfred
Wait, we need proof?
I kind of like the Michael Keaton Alfred he once said something that stuck with me since Batman and Robin. "A gentleman does not discuss his ailments.it is uncivilized."
Thank you so much for this! I'm a little too sentimental for my own good though. I'm afraid I'll be sobbing the rest of the night.
He is not the hero that we can pay but the hero that we need
I think Sean Pertwee did a great job with his role as alfred in gotham. being a tv show its interesting to see him alot more than in the movies.
Michaela Caine is the best Alfred.. Because he's more than just the butler of Tim Burton's Batman, more than just the "guy in the chair" in Ben Affleck's batman.. he's a father figure and truly cares about BW.
Michael Caine will always be the best Alfred
It's universally agreed that Efram Zimbalist Jr is the best Alfred, with Alastair Duncan in second.
@@OriginalAkivara I don't think you know what "universally" means
0:45 the best quote ever👍👍
He will always be the best Alfred.
Love Michael Caine as Alfred. A great supporting character to Bruce Wayne/ Batman
Agree with all of them, but for me, the quote #5 is the best: the most truthful in my opinion.
I think all the characters peak in The Dark Knight. In this film Alfred is much more supportive of Batman's goal. Probably my second favorite scene (there's too many amazing scenes in this film) is when Alfred gets Bruce back on his feet after Rachel's death. And then goes back to the bandit story, "We burnt the forest down." 🔥 🔥 🔥
I just realized that he was apologizing to Thomas for not being able to take care of Bruce
now do a montage of alfred from dcau
Any psychotic ex boyfriends I should be worried about?
Well there’s this one bloke who’s bloody obsessed with business cards
I always cry at the end of Dark Knight Rises when Alfred cries
No doubt the best Alfred.
Number 6 makes me cry.
Jesse12489 How he didn’t nab an Oscar for his performance in DKR baffles me.
@@MrPjw5 Arbitrary awards aren't enough to represent his stellar performance
Sean Pertwee (Gotham) was waaaay better
Was looking for this comment, agree wholeheartedly
Micheal Caine even is afraid meet Heath Ledger, that day.
"Some men just want to watch the world burn!"
Only Michael Caine can make a Cockney Alfred work.
I loved his “Lamborghini, much more subtle.” So amazing.
I still prefer Jeremy Irons because of his role as Scar in Lion King 👑 but Mr.Cain was unique in his own right and I loved it
Michael Caine is without doubt the best Alfred ever.
1:42 this whole line gets me every time
Love Caine, but Pertwee in Gotham is my personal favourite Alfred
Theres a lot I don't like about the show, but I'll give credit where due, Pertwee put in a good performance.
as i much as like the hollywood batman and micheal canie I miss the iconic "Sir" of alfred with batman animated movies. i just cant help but miss it with almost every lines of alfred
#22 is my absolute favorite!!! Especially when bruce looks at him like "nigga what??"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Most Alfred Pennyworth actor are british like Sir Michael Caine, Jeremy Irons, and Andy Serkis
NEVAH.
Tony stark & Jarvis , Bruce Wayne & Alfred...these pairs made an eternal bond in the Cinematic history.
these movies can never be the starting point of the dc universe, the actors that were cast, they have the same look about them, the dc universe movies has none of that
Never liked how he gave up on Bruce in the dark knight rises.....
That was one of my biggest problems with a movie with quite a few problems. I loved TDK, but TDKR was full of inconsistencies and plot problems.
Yeah. So much for all the times in Batman Begins when Bruce said "Still haven't given up on me" and Alfred replied "Never."
He didn't give up on him, he tried to convince him to stop, even at the cost of Bruce hating him.
He gave up on Batman, not Bruce.
I have known people who just want to watch the world burn. They are only happy living in pure chaos; I suppose they're just bipolar or something but they definitely cannot be reasoned with or persuaded in any possible way that I could see.
Alfred is just the love of my life
We can all agree Michael Caine is the best alfred,it should be worth noting there’s never been a bad Alfred
Why do we fall?
Michael Caine is the best Alfred Pennyworth and Morgan Freeman the best Lucious Fox in the entire Nolan trilogy take notes Zack Snyder this is how you make a Batman trilogy. Morgan Freeman I seen is Glory, Shawshank Redemption, Steven Spielberg film, and The Dark Knight trilogy. Michael Caine I seen Woody Allen movie, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Cider House, Dark Knight trilogy as the best butler and Youth and Kinsman secret service.
You can borrow the Rolls but just bring it back on a full tank😎 savage
That funeral scene... You can't watch Michael Caine cry and not cry with him. ;_;
Best Alfred was Arkham Knight's.
