That's the one place I noticed Sean Astin's accent had slipped. [In reply to] Can't Post

'the one place we're tryna get to'.



Whereas I think Elijah's accent was bang-on throughout the trilogy.

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded b*****d with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

    I think the accent generally stayed consistent throughout the films; it's just a bit higher at times MatthewJer18 Send a private message to MatthewJer18 Sep 8 2012, 8:05pm
