  • press 9 and then 8 LOL

  • NEVAH!

  • Why do we fall, sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves a tangerine

  • I admire Christian Bale's performance as Bruce Wayne for many reasons, but one of those reasons is at 1:33. That face. I swear it looks just like young Bruce. And paired with Michael Caine as Alfred, they make an incredible duo.

  • @CrimsonCylinder

    He's far and above the best Wayne AND best Batman

  • I always thought Alfred was the best character in any Batman, he's the master of the hero. Can't get any more badass than that. It's Yoda level.

  • Micheal Caine

    Need I say more?

  • I think about this line every time I fall while snowboarding

  • I cried.

    Nuff said.

  • Fire Rises too

  • this honestly gives me goosebumps every time i hear it. this movie is sooooo fucking good. and the dark knight did not do the storyline justice in my opinion. and i really dont think that the dark knight rises will be that good either.

  • @MrTsquared88 Mr Positive over here.

  • @stillies77 pshhhh. even just the fact that the killed off rachel in the dark knight (and the fact that katie holmes didnt play her), just made me lose like all hope in it. and also, the dark knight barely got into the whole mentality of being batman. like alfred gave a little monologue about it, but that was it.  i mean maybe the dark knight rises will get into all that, but still, im just not optimistic about it at all haha

  • Michael Caine is the best! He's very british, a brilliant actor, he sang with the Muppets in one of the best Christmas movies ever made....and he is one badass of a butler! :D

  • "What is the Point of all those Push Ups if You cant even lift up a bloody Log" LOMAO you got to love Alfred.

  • love the end of the video.

    ''Still haven't given up on me?''

    ''Never''

    *MEANWHILE IN GOTHAM! Criminal being football tackled to the ground.

  • Can someone please tell me what soundtrack is used in this part?

    Thanks

  • ALFRED THE FUCKING G!

  • this scene made Alfred into more of a badass than he ever was in the comics.

  • "I hope you're not a member of the fire brigade." XD

  • @KrytenMark I can imagine that guy being a member of the fire brigade now and it's like on Gotham's newspaper "LOCAL FIREMAN KILLED AT WAYNE MANOR FIRE", oh the regret Alfred would feel..

  • @Myr4x Hhhmmm. Yes, that's true.... But hey. Lots of fire means no evidence. XD

  • @KrytenMark You're a terrible, mean person... but you speak the truth.. PLEASE DON'T SET MY HOUSE ON FIRE. :(

  • @Myr4x No no no. I don't mean it that way.... -sigh- What's the use? ^^;

  • Batman Begins > Dark Knight x3

  • "WHAT IS THE POINT OF ALL THOSE PUSH UPS IF YOU CAN'T EVENT LIFT A BLOODY LOG!? >:U"

  • Further PROOF Alfred is AWESOME!

  • Does anyone have the scene before this, when Ra's confronts bruce at the party?

  • Poignant Scene.

  • When Batman needs to be saved somehow, who comes to him? Superman?  Robin? Nightwing?

    Nope. Alfred! :D

    The Bat is NEVER alone.

  • my favorite part of this film is the one right after that, when Gordon says to the chief " send everybody" , and the chief says " we don't have anyone left to send!" and then Bruce jumps of the bridge with the tumbler

  • I'd kill to have Alfred calling me 'Master Wayne' all the time. Alfred is the best -33

  • "Why do we fall, sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up."

    Quote of my life

  • I think it'd be cool as hell if Bruce somehow meets Clark Kent at the end of the third movie.

  • ALFRED HOW DID THEY MEET??

    HE SUCH A NICE GUY

    NOT BECAUSE HE HAS TO

    BECUASE HE LOVES BRUCE <3 U ALFRED UR A GOOD MAN!!!

  • I need to get me one of those british butlers, loyal and badass

  • Finally figured out the significance to Bruce's stained shirt:

    "What's the point of all those pushups if you can't even lift a BLOODY LOG?"

    The log was bloody. Chris Nolan snuck a sneaky pun in there.

  • @vicfurth1

    Ken Watanabe's mouth was also bloody when the fake Ra's died.

  • i cant belive he survived

  • @Phantomshadow111 He's Batman, dude.

  • The Dark Knight has fallen, but why did he fall? So he may rise once more.

  • two things:

    1. i admit, this scene made me misty eyed, alfred is a true and loyal friend (with a cool accent)

    2. I suddenly have this urge of hiring a butler with a cool accent.

  • Check out the trailer for "Alfred Begins." -- Official 2014

  • Alfred: What is the point of all those pushups if you can't even lift a bloody log

    Bruce: -.-

  • Lol, "I hope you're not a member of the fire brigade"

  • Alfred better get his scene in the dark knight rises

  • BATMAN BEGINS IS THE FOUNDATION ITS TRUE "ITS NO DARK KNIGHT" BUT IT MADE US FORGET THE AWFUL BATMAN AND ROBIN MOVIE AND GAVE US A TRUE ORIGIN STORY WHICH SET THE STAGE FOR THE DARK KNIGHT...... AND THE DARK KNIGHT RISES ITS THE FINAL CURTAIN IT MAY NOT HAVE THE JOKER BUT IT WILL FINALLY GIVE THE LEGEND BATMAN A TRUE FINALE

  • anyone else find that quote inspirational for a movie line?

  • All you people asking where the blood came from, Seriously??? A fuckin huge has log just fell on him!!! I'm pretty sure that'll cause most humans to bleed

  • Alfred is a fucking badass

  • thank you DrJ1487, and melindalimantoro!! you've clarified it for me perfectly, I finally get it :)

  • DrJ1487

    The reason for the blood is probably because the log did cut him. If u looked at the log after he pushed it away, u can see that it has a sharp edge.

  • The log probably cut his flesh. If you looked at the log, it did have a sharp edge. So that's probably the reason for the blood.

  • i was always a little confused after alfred pulls away Bruce's jacket and says something. what does he say? and did bruce get stabbed by the sword or punctured by the log or something? i never fully understood that little part... suggestions are welcome

  • @dainagolden "The Wayne legacy is more than bricks and mortar sir". I never understood where the blood came from either though..

  • @dainagolden He says 'The Wayne legacy is more than bricks and mortar sir' meaning the house isn't just the legacy his family left behind, he is also. And I think you'd find if a huge log fell on you like that you'd bleed too I wouldn't be surprised if he broke a rib or two.

  • Michael Caine is brilliant but i pefer Michael Gough

  • If Bane DOES break Batman's back in TDKR, there should be a shot of him falling off the building while we hear Alfred's voice over: "Why do we fall, sir?" and then cut to black.

  • Anyone got the scene just before this one?

  • "Nevah."

    Lol what a legend Michael Caine is!

  • "Why Do We Fall?" needs to be the tagline of The Dark Knight Rises

  • @cwpix09 Couldn't agree more.

  • Please what is/are the OST played in this scene?

  • best movie

  • im giong to fall down the stairs all the time now

  • ..did alfred just defeat a league of shadows member?

  • @mrdbznarutofan1 s'what he does. "ya dig?"

  • @mrdbznarutofan1 He did. "Never underestimate your opponent". Taste of their own medicine, indeed.

  • the dark knight rises will bring back the wayne manor, it will be awesome

  • whats the point of all the push ups when you cant pick up a bloody log?

  • "I hope your not a member of the Fire Brigade"

  • Alfred:whats the point of all those push ups if you cant even lift up a bloody log lol

  • RIP Michael Gough

    "my butler, my alfred. god bless."- michael keaton

  • @GamerChicka51 No, Geoffry from Fresh Prince is the best butler ever.

  • Alfred: Beat up a henchman, ridiculed and saved Batman, and outran a fireball with an elevator.

    Best. Butler. Ever. And one of my favorite Batman characters of all time.

  • @TheZacula i think bane is goin to hurt or kill alfred yo, bec in some of the new Dark Knight Rises pics it looks like Bane is in the new batcae and alfred is always in there with batman/bruce.

  • Alfred.  Bloody awesome.

  • makes me teary eyed and get goosebumps every time it hits the part when he says 'so we can learn to pick ourselves back up'

  • If you were to just see this scene alone, not knowing it was a Batman movie, this would still stand as an amazing emotional scene with great acting. This is what Nolan brings to the table. Good fucking movies. Period.

  • Alfred (Michael Gough) died.

  • so why do we fail? so that we can learn to be Batman

  • Powerful, maybe everyone should learn to pick themselves up and start walking.!

  • michael caine is fucking awesome

  • This Butler is Wanted :D

  • Alfred's my favourite character in the Batman series by a country mile.

  • Bruce: What have I done Alfred? Everything my family . . . my father built . . .

    Alfred: *checks Bruce's wound* The Wayne legacy is more than bricks and mortyr, sir.

    Bruce: I wanted to save Gotham . . . I failed . . .

    Alfred: Why do we fall, sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.

    Bruce *on the verge of crying* You still haven't given up on me.

    Alfred: Never!

    Such a powerful and emotoinal scene in a Batman film T_T . . . . I bet Alfred touched the audience at that moment

  • Alfred is the reason why I would want a butler.

  • i hope youre not a member of fire Brigit lmfao

  • 2 people couldn't lift a bloody log.

  • @HarveyDent13 HAHAHA! :D

  • "You still haven't give up on me?"

    "Nevah"

  • Comment removed

  • @eugene680 Yea, thats whats up!

  • Michael Caine = Brilliant actor, amazing Alfred. He is a perfect balance between the humorous Alfred, the loving Alfred, and the wise Alfred.

    Plus, he is the only Alfred I can recall that has ever kicked some serious ass the way he did when he knocked that guy out from behind and rescued Bruce from the burning Wayne Manor.

  • @BuildersBlockStudios He also gave Alfred an awesome backstory, too; I'm not sure if he says this in an interview or something, but he likes to say that he imagined Alfred as being a very tough, capable guy and far more than just a butler; he envisioned his Alfred as being a former British special forces trooper and recruited by the Waynes because they knew him personally and trusted him, and gave him a military-style accent to match. I guess that explains the ass-kicking part. ^_^

  • This is the scene that made Alfred on of my favorite characters.

  • Never mind, found it. =)

  • Whats the song when Alfred save batman from the burning building in the first movie? I can;t find it anywhere!

  • @MrGeneralJB its kinda in the credits music.

  • "what's the point in all those push ups if you can't even lift a blood log!

  • Alfred is the best.

  • "Still haven't given up on me?"

    "Neva"!

  • wouldn't it be funny if Bruce's last name was Bates? Alfred: "Master-Bates"

  • "Why do we fall sir? so we can learn to pick ourselves up" is a very powerful concept and Michael Cane really does it justice. Brilliantly portrayed.

  • 1:31  that expression! Bale rules!!!

  • what is the point of all those push ups if you cant even lift a bloody log! *love that line!!!!!

  • Alfred really is Batman's Batman.

  • @HoshiHikari nice joke, dude! i lmaod for 5 minutes not less! :D

  • saddest moment frm the movie, i almost cried like a bitch when i saw this he 1st time

  • I love this scene..movie perfection

  • it would suck is alfred died

  • alfred is the man. besst supporting character in comic book history, marvel or dc or IMAGE!

  • micheal caine pwns

  • This film is no Dark Knight, But it's not meant to be, Batman Begins is a personal film, and it's all about Bruce, where as Dark Knight is about Gotham.

  • @AngelM537 Bingo!

  • @AngelM537

    Man its been eleven months since you posted that comment and its still as true today as when it was posted. Great comment, the fact its acknowledged eleven months ahead, is a testament to that.

  • @AngelM537

    Of course not. It's all set up for The Dark Knight but it doesn't mean it's not good set up. In fact it's great set up because I thought about Batman Begins while I was watching The Dark Knight.

  • @AngelM537 Dark Knight Rises is about the nature of good and evil.

  • @AngelM537 Actually, The Dark Knight is about The Joker. It's his movie, like this is Batmans movie.

  • @hmc117

    No its fucking not, its about Batman

  • @yamisupersaiyan Did you not see the movie? although Batman is of course important to the story and he reclaims the movie again at the end, Nolan rightfully paid most of his attention to the Joker, it's his movie.

  • @hmc117

    oh I've seen the movie dozens of times, apparently you all haven't. Who had the character development? Batman, who did we personally see in turmoil? Batman, Eckhart, and Gordon. I don't get where people come from when they say it was a movie of Joker. The guy HAD NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, had no past, had nothing but cool lines and people think hes the main thing. Don't get me wrong, his performance was excellence...but legit he was not the main focus of the film.

  • @yamisupersaiyan HAD NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!? he was the fucking villain! he was a crazy evil clown! every single thing that happens in the movie happens because of the Joker. He kills Rachel, he drives Dent insane, he pisses off Batman. He is the most memorable character in the movie by far and Ledger acted circles around Bale in the movie (i know Bale is a great actor, he just didn't have much to do). Nolan clearly loved the character and paid attention to him the most.

  • @hmc117

    Explain to me the radical change in Joker from the beginning in TDK to the end? He has no development, but thats not a bad thing. The Joker is supposed to be a completely insane foe. You clearly don't get what character development means. Yes you're right he drives the whole movie, but he himself is 1D. Its interesting, but not so much after you look into it a bit. Listen the Joker is a character that has room for potential. Batman? there is only so much you can do with him

  • @hmc117

    Batman is awesome...but face it he's pretty 1D himself. Bale was the best Batman their could be. The Joker has obvious potential because hes so spontaneous so this isn't Bales fault. With that said, he was memorable but fuck I didn't care about him at all. I enjoyed his lines and stuff....but seeing Batman, Gordon, Dent in pain hit me more. Listen there would be no Ledger in the film without Bale. The two acted off each other. Ledger clearly had the better ROLE for acting is all

  • @yamisupersaiyan I cared about him, i didn't want him to die when Batman threw him off the roof, and i got really sad (and still do) in his last scene when he says "I think you and i are destined to do this forever" because i knew that we would never see this great character/performance again. In my opinion he's also the greatest villain in movie history. He doesn't need any development, what is he gonna do? turn good? reveal his actual past? it's better if the character is just a crazy mystery.

  • lulz fire brigade...

  • :'( aw sad

  • Ironically Alfred's last name is Pennyworth LOL He is so not worth a penny!

  • Alfred rocks

  • Neva! When Alfred says that one word it sends shivers down my spine!

  • Jarvis can go suck a lemon, Alfred is the greatest.

  • Caine was great as Alfred!!!!

  • This scene really reminds me of the "Frollo's Obsessive Search" scene from Hunchback of Notre Dame. Especially given each scenes' villains' rationalizations for burning buildings down...

  • Me encanta batman y mola por la accion que hace desearia conocer a los actores de sus pelis.

  • Does anyone know the name of the song that is playing in this scene?

  • Gotta love Alfred. He is like a father to Batman.

  • LOL, alfred still managed to play a tune on the piano before the whole thing got burnt...

  • It's awesome how Alfred is Bruce's Batman. Is like his father and guardian.

    Michael Caine owns!

  • Master Bruce why do you do those push ups in the morning when you cant even lift up a bloody door nob.LOL

  • I actually liked Michael Caine as Alfred better than the original guy.

  • Does anyone have a youtube video with the part right before this when the men start the fire?

  • Alfred saves his ass twice in the movie. Michael Caine is awesome

  • (After knocking out the lookout): "I hope you're not a member of the Fire Brigade..."

    I love his snappy one-liners. Alfred has to be one of my favorite movie characters of all time, both in this portrayal and previous.

  • does anyone know the where i can see the scene right b4 this?

  • I luv hw Christian looks @ him when Alfred says "wats d point of all those push ups if u can't even lift dat bloody log?"

  • Alfred is a good burger LOL

  • He was a great Alfred. I love the kind of relationship Bruce and Alfred have. It's like a father/son relationship its so sweet.

  • I am soooo jealous Bruce Wayne has Alfred as a butler. Always there when ya need him. true friend indeed.

  • Alfred is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Micheal Cain is adorable!

  • Alfred is the shit!

    I mean he does everything in the movie, he gives Batman support and telling him his the man so he gets motivation to kick some ass, he also makes him breakfast, lunch, dinner, now that's a really cool dude!

  • this is one of the most emotional scenes in the movie.

  • michael caine really got alfred. the humor "what's the point in all those push ups if you can't even lift a blood log!?" and the love "why do we fall sir? so we can learn to pick ourselves up" were both perfect

  • @CrazyLazyMonkey true, but lets not for get the Nolan brothers who wrote those lines.

  • @CrazyLazyMonkey Don't forget Bale's perfect teary eyed reaction when he ses "you still haven't given up on me"! But I agree that Caine is BRILLIANT in this movie! 

  • Micheal Cain is awesome

  • above and beyond so. I was really pleased to see him in the Dark Knight (first batman movie I ever saw).

  • Alfreds so badass! XD

  • Does anyone know which song on the soundtrack is playing as Alfred takes Bruce to the lift? I can't for the life of me work it out.

    cheers,

    :)

  • It's part of the credits. It's redone for The Dark Knight on the track "Agent of Chaos".

  • god i love this movie. action, emotion, storytelling...one of the best films of the decade as bat89 was.

  • I wish I had an Alfred

  • the way alfred bursts into the fire shows how he deeply loves bruce...and how strong is the connection between the two and alfred's words are simple but with great meanings though...one of the main reasons why these series are way better than the old series... it shows the connection between bruce and alfred..not some cheesy line like in the old series...CAN I PERSAUDE YOU TO TAKE A SANDWITCH WITH YOU SIR??........gimme a break.

  • I almost cried when Alfred as Bruce "Why do we fall sir?" (!!!!) That is so cool!!!!

  • This movie was fucking amazing.....I am not being a hater against the Dark Knight, but I will say that I think the pacing of this movie was about 3x better than the Dark Knight. The Dark Knight had its moments (especially when Ledger was on-screen) but this movie was more emotionally moving than The Dark Knight could have possibly hoped for.

    Sucks that Katie Holmes didn't return, that really put a DENT in the emotional tug of losing the character we grew to know from this movie.

  • Are you serious?

  • "I hope you're not a member of the fire brigade." xD

  • i watch this every time i feel down. <3

  • Same here. The interaction between their characters is always a comfort.

  • its a great quote. ive used it before.

  • I absolutely love this scene. There is easily a noticable chemistry between Caine and Bale. This is a very passionate scene with alot of heart. Everyone needs that one person in their life who will never give up on them. As much as I love the action in this movie, there are very relatable moments that any human can relate to in their everyday lives. This scene is a prime example. Michael Caine is great as Alfred. Thanks for posting this scene.

  • Michael Caine is amazing

  • Alfred is a ledgend - making jokes while their home is buring down lol
