About the accents... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I'm a mixed breed. Born in America, I come from British (Mom) and Italian (Dad) families. Bad accents in movies bother me, though not as bad as incorrect grammar. FoTR did not bother me too much. Yes, Sean Astin's accent could have better, but his was harder than Frodo's.<P>What bothered me was the small things like Legolas not calling Gandalf "Mithrandir".
