      In most versions Alfred is quick to pick up any possible weapon to defend others (especially Bruce).
      I remember one version of Alfred that beats up Superman. it's from Injustice: Gods among us.
      Another his version ends up in Arkham, teaming up with Bane to escape and even earning Bane's respect by killing a vampire.
      One other thing is that alfred is not Bruce, he has military background and is willing to kill if he thinks that's the best option.

      Nolan Alfred still had a history of military service, because he relates the story about Burma to Bruce because he was on service there. He's just gotten too old by the time of the movies, to be a physical aggressor anymore. I think him being ex-SAS has always been part of his background, or at least was added to it pretty early after his original design.

    I reckon _Gotham_ really paved the way for a more physical and ‘raw’, front-and-center Alfred. Makes sense that, if you had to transplant the Batman franchise to the modern setting, that Alfred would more likely have been the Waynes’ head of security, rather than a ‘butler’ (though I believe he was still a butler in this show).

      @lordsathariel4384 3 ปีที่แล้ว +165

      well in fairness a lot of military who go back to civilian life would mostly go to bodyguard or security. thing is a true butler isn't just a waiter like most depict their job is normally much more complex they normally are the head and face of the house the first person you meet as you enter before you meet the host or owner the man who keeps things running properly and helps keep their boss organised and organises what their boss doesn't have time for since the Wayne's are rich would make sense they would hire someone who can double as protection since they only have one house staff member in most iterations plus Alfred is a badass and former spy/sas so they seem to have gone for the all in one package or as most say quality over quantity. plus if you look at most proper butlers they take their job more seriously then a war its like the guards at london tower they have one job and they do it to the max you help. get out the way or get ran down.

    He played Alfred so well. He and Gordon were the show for me. The stable of villains started strong, but suffered somewhat just due to alliances shifting from one episode to the next

    It’s scary to think where Bruce would be without Alfred. After his parents death Alfred helped Bruce with everything including his mental health and taking care of him. He’s essentially his uncle/adoptive father and is the only person Bruce would’ve trusted when feeling that vulnerable after that night

    Every other interpretation of Alfred really makes you forget that he’s ex-military but Sean Pertwee really makes you see him as a badass who could’ve genuinely kicked ass during war. He’s also the perfect Alfred when it comes to being a gentle but firm father figure with a bit of that fatherly sarcasm. He’s my personal favorite Alfred, don’t get me wrong, the others are still great in their own aspects but Sean really killed this role.
