Colin Farrel's accent in THE NEW WORLD
 

Anyone see this movie? Why is he from England like everyone else he's with, but he's still just using his natural Irish accent? With the money put into his paycheck and the rest of the movie, they couldn't afford to hire a vocal coach to train him for a week to learn an accent he should already know?

Or am I missing something and he's actually supposed to be from Ireland?

Sorry, I'm an actor an an accent snob now, and I'm mostly curious to see if anyone else noticed this. Someone that isn't an accent snob.

it was a lame movie

Awesome cinematography, but lame speech coaching. Sigh.

ya mean this guy?

Are those pics from Alexander or his sex tape?

Alexander they are from, and I have no interest in seeing that movie....

Those shots were actually in the movie, or is that some cutting room floor thing?

I never noticed probably since Ireland was in the British Empire, Irishmen served in the British Navy, and there were even Irishmen living in England. Or maybe I was too concerned with the movie sucking to care. I thought Thin Red Line was good but I've lost all respect for this writter since I'm sure he used some of the same lines in The New World.

lol collin is crazy

He did a quite good American accent in that phone booth movie and I'm sure an English one would have been no problem if they had wanted one

he sucks....anyways

Like i needed to see that guy's butt... ;(!

going to see miami vice tonight :thumbsup
