Well, it's pretty much indisputable that Oldman's Gordon kicks the tar out of Pat Hingle's.
I still prefer Michael Caine's Alfred though. I like his increased role, and believability as a character. I found Gough's to be much more one dimensional, like a cardboard cutout of an Enlgish butler. I still like Gough, though, he's the Alfred of my youth.
I agree. You could of taken a any 60+ queens english speaking actor and they could of done Goughs role. Gough was alright but he didn't bring anything to the role, it was just standard posh butler.
Caine actully brought presence and believeability to the role.
Caine can do other accents but choose his own for the role and it really didn't bother me. Caines Alfred reminded me of parker from thunderbirds.
