Brit, Scot, Mick, what's the diff? As long as you're not speaking American, you're all foreigners. That's why we so readily accept Sean Connery as a Russian, Spaniard, etc and Gerard Butler as Spartan, Russell Crowe as Roman, etc.


Something i didn't understand - why are Firefly/Serenity used in a film about time travel? That absence is largely why so many enjoyed them, no FTL or warping.

so all yanks are really canadians with accents then?

that makes so much sense

the firefly ref is when they are in pub at start, talking about all the crap hollywood makes so they make a demand list of things they want to change, at end they demand that there be more firefly..... or serenity...

this is before they find the time leak in the gents, just a bit of old "banter" in pub before all the time bending being dead, furture and time loops + hottie yankie future girl etc etc.....

In the begining of the film, Elise gives Richard a watch. At the end she gets it back from Richard. There is no explanation as to where the watch originated from.

Nope, you got it backwards. All the people from Canadia are really yanks who say "aboot" instead of "about".

But yeah, most Americans are stupid enough that they think a "foreign" accent automatically means a British accent. That's why when you need a Hitler, you get Anthony Hopkins, and if you need a Roman, you get Richard Burton. I mean, honestly - don't Russian and German sound EXACTLY like English-with-a-British-accent to you?


Oh, and I think it probably IS supposed to be "Han shot first." But "Handjob first" is much, MUCH funnier.
