    Or, say, his role in Hunt for the Red October? A Lithuanian sub captain in the Russian navy sporting a Scottish brogue.

    Richard Lewis: And why should the people listen to you?
    Cary Elwes: Because, unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent.

    Inland North here, too.

    North Central was the lowest of all the marks ... odd, considering that's where I'm from.

    I'm proud to have spawned a four-page thread. So many bad accents brought back to mind here ...

    It's called being a teenager on a date with a frisky redhead, who filled out her sweater so nicely.

    Awww, those were the days. I'd go to the worst film ever if it meant being with my girlfriend.

    I'm curious as to why there were so many high-profile Italians with Brooklyn accents in Milwaukee in the 1950s -- the Fonz, Laverne and Frank DeFazio, Carmine Ragusa....

    I also got Inland North, but as far as I know no one in Wisconsin calls it "pop".

    Just saw such a bad movie I had to revive this thread.

    Tom Hanks in Volunteers. I think it's supposed to be some kind of East Coast thing, but Lord, it was miserable.

    Of course, John Candy was in it. That pretty much predestined the whole thing anyway.

    Kevin Costner in Robin Hod: Prince of Thieves. Now you see it, now you don't.

    Walter Koenig (Mr. Chekov) in any Star Trek.
