I've never actually seen a British film with someone putting on an American accent... Wow, I'm weird. Mind you, most films are made in Hollywood nowadays. Hehe, American accents are hard. There are way too many of them. I can do a killer Tennessee accent though... :P
I didn't know what to put here so I put this.

Wait... there's a Tennessee accent? And compared to you Brits and considering the size of our country, I think you people have too many. :D Seriously--there are only.... five American accents, at least that I can think of.

All I can figure out is if it's British or American or North Indian or South Indian.

I have a Philadelphia accent, but say words from other places, like northern Cali says "hella". So do I. xD Back to BRITISH accents...I can do a killer Scottish accent. I suck at the queen's.

Wot? When I think "British stereotype", I think prisoners in top hats & monocles having a cuppa and discussing amongst each other the most elaborate way of disemboweling prostitutes. In a posh British accent, of course.

Spoiler
I'm so sorry. I had to.


Oh, and as for myself, I enjoy a thick, lush, Eastern European accent.

xD I love when people say, "Oh, I love British accents!" and I'm like, "Which one?"

My extended family live in Somerset. 'Nuff said.

It's the same with Irish accents. Anyone who thinks they can do a good Irish accent has clearly never met an Irish person *looks pointedly at Gerald Butler*

And then there's people like me. Tell me when you work out what my accent is, kthnxbai.

I have the most ridiculous Cockney accent.... mixed with someone who has trouble putting spaces between words?

I don't know > oidunno

But of course> Budduvcorse

I can do a pretty good American accent, and I'm told my Russian one is good. Anything else, I just sound very racist....
