this whole mess has got me confused...

Posted by: RazorHawk on May 14, 12:13 in response to joeoftexas' post Yahoo! Movie News -- Russell Crowe Storms Out Of...

What makes a good Robin Hood movie?

A dude with an Irish accent pretending to be British, or an American with no accent pretending to be British?

 

Is is better that your movie looks like the scottish styled Braveheart or a Bon Jovi video?

 

Did Crowe really say that all previous Robin Hoods got it wrong and weren't realistic except for Disney's animated version (which had a fox play the lead - that was the most realistic version to him?)

Wasnt the first version of Crowe's Robin Hood, where Robin Hood was the villian?

He doesn't have an Irish accent in the movie... RCROW is Australian {nm} secretstalker May 14, 12:17

joeoftexas was nice enough to post the story, obviously you didnt read it. {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 12:27

Your IM has nothing to do with the story which is just about the BBC guy asking about his Irish accent and him getting mad. {nm} secretstalker May 14, 12:32

I thought you said he was Australian? {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:19

Was responding to this: "A dude with an Irish accent pretending to be British, or an American with no accent pretending to be British? " secretstalker May 14, 13:22

according to that reporter... RazorHawk May 14, 13:27

I read it that the guy thought that Crowe's British accent sounded more Irish (heard this from a few Brits) {nm} secretstalker May 14, 13:31

= "a dude with an Irish accent pretending to be British.." {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:38

Ehr... Ireland is in Britain, or at least the British Isles.. Northern Ireland is part of Great Britain, proper. The thing is, probably, Facto May 14, 14:23

Be careful with saying Ireland is in Britain. It was, it hasn't been for nearly a century. As touchy as Crowe is about his dodgy accent {nm} numbersix_99 May 14, 15:54

Great Britain is just the big island. {nm} lukesed May 14, 19:44

And Northern Ireland {nm} numbersix_99 May 15, 02:30

Yep, but I mentioned the British Isles. Those, as an archipelago, include all of Ireland. Seems there may be some controversies there as Facto May 15, 06:31

When he wins Oscars, he's Australian. When he throws telephones, he's a New Zealander. {nm} RogerMore May 14, 13:24

correction: when he wins Oscars he is [AUSIE]; when he throws telephones he is [BANAL]! {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:29

this. {nm} CSBD May 14, 13:47

I thought Mel Gibson was Australian. {nm} Hooray360 May 14, 16:09

This story is some hours old already. Thought about posting it, but nah.. Who cares? {nm} Facto May 14, 12:20

RCROW isn't aging well in looks or personality. {nm} BuenaOnda May 14, 14:07

What's changed in his personality... ?? At least he didn't throw the headphones or the microphone at the radio interviewer.... {nm} Facto May 14, 14:24

I wonder how many people are so tired of his tantrums that they're simply not going to see the film because he's in it. {nm} mrbeankc May 14, 15:15

A very negligible amount of people, very scattered out across the world - the odd one here and there. Probably too few to mention. {nm} Facto May 14, 15:44

*raises hand* - might Netflix it at X-Mas {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 20:37

Crowe is one of the greatest living film actors. People that don't go because he's in it are, well, idiots. hankquinlan May 14, 21:20

They all sound alike.........British, Irish, Scottish, Austrialian, New Zealand. etc...... {nm} AgentEvil May 14, 16:59
