Other than Tommy Wiseau, what’s the single worst accent ever in a movie?
Sean Connery (Highlander) - as Rick said in Rick and Morty “He played THE SPANIARD and did nothing about his accent.
Nicole Kidman (Cold Mountain) - Watching this movie made you wonder if she watched cartoons as prep for a southern accent, while you can tell there was an Australian “BLIMY!” desperately trying to sneak out.
John Wayne (The Conquerer) - It was like he was putting on a southern accent so that people would think he was too fruity.
Emma Watson (Beauty and the Beast remake) - Emma is the quintessential “this person has a British accent so that means they’re a good actor” actor.
And wow, did she completely forget she was French half the time in this movie.
It wouldn’t be so bad if she just committed to an accent, but it kept changing scene to scene.
Luckily for her everyone was too distracted by the jarring cgi with no art direction to remember how bad she was in this monstrosity.
