Jessica Alba's accent in Honey was terrible. "I teach Hip Hop down at da centuh."

I forget the name of the movie, but Harrison Ford played a Russian sub captain. I appreciated the effort, but it did not work.

That would be the Oscar winning movie (ya right) K-19: The Widowmaker from 2002.

The news that John Travolta is in talks to play J.R. Ewing in the big screen version of Dallas brings back painful memories of his egregious attempts at a Texas accent in Urban Cowboy. My ears are still bleeding.

Jesus, imagine Jlo attempting a southern accent? She will own this thread if that comes to fruition.

It's between JLo and Catherine Zeta-Jones, I think. Either would be deliciously bad. And hard on the ears.

And hard on the ears.Also hard on the ears, the galloping of all four horses. Back on topic, Jlo has a pretty crappy accent. Not in any particular role, just in general.

That was PAINFUL. It's like she practiced that accent by watching Dick Vanxxxx in Mary Poppins over and over.
Bad Southern accents drive me crazy. I'm from Georgia, and it annoys me when people think Southern accents are easy to imitate.
Topic? Nic Cage in whatever movie that was where he was an escaped inmate. If someone did that shitty accent around my family, we'd hand them their ass. The only non-Southern actress I've ever seen do the accent believeably is Tracy Ullman. Then again, she can do pretty much any accent well.

I love Ewan, but I think when he tries an American accent it comes off a wee bit nasally. He's still sexy, though, and I'd STILL prefer to his his bad American accent than someone else's.
His worst though was a fake Dutch accent in Serpent's Kiss. Of course, since his character was an Englishman pretending to be Dutch, maybe that was the point, but it was AWFUL.
