Daniel Day-Lewis is so intense.

record yourself saying it and let's see.

They don't sound the same to me. I'm wondering if that's different for any of you.

 

[phillyfan26]

No. The A's in "ham" and "bad" sound nothing alike to me.

I know. I don't understand what the point of that is.

 

[Axver]

Do the vowels sound the same to you when you say them aloud? I don't buy that.

No. They're similar until you hit 'grad' and 'path', which are quite distinctly different.

Daniel Day-Lewis is so intense.

The badassery of Bill the Butcher and Daniel Plainview combined would kill most men. In fact, all men, except DDL.

Ax, everytime I try to download either of the files you sent me I get this message from winrar:

[Screwtape2]

I was just about to add that New Zealanders would say "what's wrong?"

And Yoda would say "wrong what is?"

let me look at the list again.

When that happens to me, it usually means the file didn't fully download. Compare the file size on your computer with what the download page says it should be. If they're the same, then let's see if anybody else here can get them to work!

In Philly, we would say "What's the matter?" or more accurately "What's a matter?" as opposed to "What's the trouble?" or "What's wrong?"

Damn fucking right it would.

There were rumors that he'd replace Heath Ledger in a sequel to The Dark Knight if The Joker's character were to appear again, out of respect. I'm fairly torn on the idea, true or not, but it's pretty damn cool.

D-Day's last real mainstream film, Last of the Mohicans, is pretty enjoyable.

Yeah, I'd use "what's the matter?" too. I guess "wot's thuh mattuh?"

I'd prefer they not use The Joker at all, but if they must, who'd be better than DDL?

I just found this. Would have saved me time: a full guide to Philly pronunciations:

The Philadelphia Accent

What's tha Madder for me phonetically

I don't mind, since this Batman series is completely different than the previous four. But yeah, if that were to happen, he's the best guy for the part.

The problem with most comic book films is that they feel like they "have to" kill the villain by the end, especially if they're trying to establish a franchise. There are only so many characters that would transfer to the screen well, you know?

 

[bono_212]

Because if it's double t's you better believe I'm gonna throw some d's on that bitch

 

[Screwtape2]

The problem with Batman is that there weren't that many interesting characters. Really the same with all the popular DC characters.

i wonder if such a page exists for memphis accent

I've always really liked Two- Face, then the Joker a close (CLOSE) second. After that, I really don't care much for Batman. I'm more of a Spidey fan

I found a page with a 50 year old woman born and raised in Chicago speaking to demonstrate the accent. God I hope I don't sound like that woman

THERE WILL BE BLOOD

Go to "Abandoned My Child."

The problem with Batman is that there weren't that many interesting characters. Really the same with all the popular DC characters.

I beg to differ, Batman's probably got the best rogue's gallery out of any superhero, apart from Spiderman:

The Joker - my favorite supervillain
Two-Face
Catwoman
The Riddler
The Penguin
Ra's Al Ghul
Mr. Freeze
Scarecrow
Man-Bat

Plus the mob villains were pretty cool. That's just off the top of my head.

Ax, Romena's theme is pretty brilliant. And the intro to Heroine is beautiful.

I'm in love already...hope this isn't the high point of the album
