    She’s one of a few people in Hollywood that, come one, we all look at them and know that’s not a human. That’s an alien. But its an attractive alien who also is talented so we all just kind of look the other way.

        When Benedryl Cabbagepatch is trying to sound American he ends up sounding like a German person playing a British actor doing an American accent. I like him as an actor but his accent in Dr Strange is just…off somehow.

        Compared to Hugh Laurie or Idris Elba who both do it flawlessly.

          I think the problem is his American accent has no definitive region. He hits his A sounds like he’s from California and his O sounds like he’s from Minnesota, and he’s playing a New Yorker. It’s very jarring.

            Marvel doesn’t have the courage to give Dr Strange a thick south Boston accent. But it would be awesome.

          Please try to pronounce Bandersnatch Cummerdills correctly next time, it is the man’s name after all…

          We had a batch of Long Island Iced Tea in the fridge and we had the bright idea of mixing it with lemonade and calling it a Long Island Arnold Palmer, and trying to say that phrase is a good way of approximating Crumbleslap’s American accent.
