Also the earlier 'you hammered to the point of desperation, and in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand'. Because Alfred already knows that the mob hiring the Joker isn't going to end well for the mafia bosses, because the sort of man who wants to watch the world burn isn't so fussed as to who's in the flames.

Not even hurt people as much as just creating chaos or destroying a system. I think people refer to Ledger's Joker as an Anarchist. I don't know how accurate that is, but if that is the case his goal is destroy the system by any means necessary. Or he's just a chaotic mad man who neither wants to hurt or not hurt anyone.

One of the most powerful and scary lines in cinema in my opinion. As kids, villains were just villains, and heroes were just heroes. With time, we learned that heroes are flawed and that villains are wounded. This was the first time since childhood that our generation (born in 1990-95) saw one of the best known monsters brought to the big screen and he wasn’t a wounded child or broken man. He was the same kind of monster we knew villains to be as children. Someone who just wanted to watch the world burn.

This is deeper than that. The cackling cartoon villains of our childhood were evil because they wanted power, they wanted to rule the world, or they had the specific aim to destroy or take over something. Joker's evil is more terrifying because there is absolutely no driving force behind it, except chaos for chaos's sake.

Alfred: "You crossed the line first, sir. You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand. With respect Master Wayne, Perhaps this is a man you don't fully understand either." Such powerful words, Batman maybe tough and skilled, but compare to what Alfred has been through, Batman has a long way to go.

The greatest part about this scene imo is that Alfred fundamentally misunderstands the thief as well, which is really the entire point of the story. The government was using the gems to bribe the local tribesmen in exchange for loyalty. The thief removes the gems to presumably remove the bribery and in response the government burns down the whole forest in order to catch him. The story reflects the entire movie and adds to the unreadable multilayered aspect of the jokers character. It indirectly reveals his motives.

​@operator9858 it seems that the bandit in the story was unrelated to the tribal leaders, if he was a freedom fighter he would have used money from selling the stone to fund anti colonial efforts, but that is besides the point, as trying to pin a motivation or alignment on the bandit is missing the whole point of the story

Michael Cain should have gotten an oscar for his performance as Alfred in The Dark Knight. Having actors as good as Christian Bale and Michael Cain lead a superhero film makes them absolutely ludicrous. They're so good. I really believe that the reason these movies were so successful wasn't because it was Batman. It was simply because the script and the actors were perfect. I understand bringing in action stars for these movies - but people forget the reason that people love the characters in comic book films is because of the characters, not the action. If your actor can't portray a realistic version of the character that people believe, sure it can still be fun but it won't give people an experience of being in the situation. I feel like Bale's Batman was 100% thrown under the bus. Sure, they traded a lot of the actual comic canon of the character and the more "detective" nature of Batman to the wind for action and story, but I feel like this character could have been so much more. I am still sad that we've not gotten a Superman film that accurately portrays Clark and gives him a personality. The closest anyone has ever come was Tom Welling and he refused to don the cape ever again after the Smallville finale.

Explains why there's so many videos of people smashing stuff for fun, when it's possible to get entire libraries of games, movies, and shows on a cheap smartphone, the kind of thing that would've kept me from ever being bored as a kid.

That scaning of face and trying to understand how to defeat Joker is really good choice of showing two adversaries. Batman is fighting criminals and tries to do it logically, woth advantage on his side. In other side, Joker cannot be scanned, reasoned woth, he is chaos and anarchy in living flesh, he has a plan, but relies on his skills as an agent of chaos. Logic vs chaos

That perfectly encompasses the nature of the Jokers character and why out of all the villain's that Batman has, HE is in my opinion the most dangerous and the most terrifying. The Joker doesnt do the things he does because of some cause or ideology, not for vengeance, not for profit or financial gain, not for power, not to be superior, not to prove that he is smarter than batman and certainly not for love. He does it because its fun.

Everyone takes these words for granted and points to how Alfred is a true mastermind who can really read Joker like an open book when, in reality, he couldn't be further from the truth, and this scene is supposed to paint Alfred as a pompous know-it-all.

1:08. I really like Bruce's quick reaction here. Bale's acting choice, wether intentional or not, makes it look like Bruce understood right there, before Alfred was even done speaking. Bruce is smart. It "clicked" eight there, and he immediately looks up at the screen to stare at Joker, realizing what he is. And he lets Alfred finish the story only to confirm the point to himself plus his basic manors and respect for Alfred of course. And then of course filmmaking wise, the audience needs to be told as well. But you can see Brice immediately snap into focus as soon as he "gets it" and realized what he's really dealing with.

I see as people who went thru alot and it always goes one of 2 ways like whats also said in this movie... you ether die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian.. some people just get tired of it after awhile.... and i dont think unless u have serious mental problems does a person just wake up one day and decides to go that route...

On top of that alot of what we would call villains both real and fictional except for the real crazy ones have been thru something crazy or a serious of things which can drive a person mad without the right support which not everyone has.... basically villains aren't born they're created with the exception of really mentally crazy people who just will or could never understand basic human emotion, right from wrong or some type of principles at least

Anyone who still asks "why does any version of Joker do what he does," needs to rewatch this scene because Alfred perfectly explains it. Joker sees the world as a cesspool and just wants to watch it burn. Why? Because he hates order.

Story goes that when Nolan asked Caine to play Alfred, he refused because to him it was just a butler. But then Nolan told him Alfred would be way more and Caine agreed. This scène is an example of why Caine was the right choice.
