NOMINATIONS WILL STAY OPEN UNTIL TOMORROW MIDDAY EST.

Anyone else had reality screw with the fiction in their head lately?

Example:

My boyfriend is in love with the Dresden Files, and recently Netflix-ed (yes it's a verb) the tv series, and lent them to me as well. While watching 'Inside the Dresden Files' I realize that Paul Blackthorne (Harry Dresden) has got this adorable British accent, while Terrence Mann (Bob, here portrayed as human-form and v. v. British sounding) is from Kentucky.

My mom goes, "Oh yeah, there's a lot of Manns in Kentucky," which, when you're listening to that sentence and not reading it, makes you twitch amusingly.

And then I got chastised for not assuming a last name like Blackthorne was British. *chuckles*

Anyone else?

Also while I am thinking about it: I want to know who has the biggest plothole in their canon! And here I am talking sustained plotholes, not ones that get resolved in later canon *eyes Bootstrap Bill*.

Here's my nomination: If Ned brings dead things back to life, even the fruit he bakes into his pies, how does he eat?

All nominations will be organized into a later poll and posted in the back room to vote upon. :D!!! Please put NOMINATION in the subject line so I can find it. Maybe I'll even make a prize!

ETA: Since it is rapidly occuring to me that there are some canons with more holes than plots, pick your favorite, and/or the one most likely to go "A SMALL CHILD IN AN EYEPATCH WOULD HAVE SEEN THAT ONE AND TO FIX IT WOULD HAVE COST YOU NOTHING, YOU DORKS."

Does this help at all? *shrug* I dunno. Pick your favorite!

xD Touché.

I actually think House's accent isn't American so much as alcoholic. *shrug* Still nice though.

Plz 'splain. How is that not an American accent? *blinks*

[muji]

Oh it's House doing an American accent, definitely -- it's just that it's so gravelly (and thereby reminiscent of way too many alcoholic men I've known in my comparatively short lifespan) that in his accent portrayal he also develops a connotation for me I'm not sure is intended.

I'm weird.

[lienne.livejournal.com]

Haha. :D!

Yes, I noticed the gravelly. The gravelly is pretty cool. (By which I mean very very attractive. I'm shallow and have a huge voice fetish, okay?)

Ooh ooh ooh. What's the best-sounding fake accent you've ever heard? Most attractive, well-executed, mellifluous, whatever criteria you wanna go by. XD

[muji]

Oh that's so hard.

My first reaction is Michael Vartan's voice in general in either French or English, but I suppose that doesn't count because his mother's French and his dad's American.

Oh that's really hard.

Having given you some time to think about it, I now demand a response!

For the record, my final answer is Hugh Laurie on House for a combination of best-executed (nigh-flawless!) and most attractive (mmmmmmmmgravelly).

[muji]

:O! I got distracted with worky!

OH OH OH HOW DID I FORGET PAUL MCGILLION. Canadian man ftw on the Scottish accent on Stargate Atlantis.

...wait, is that MAH TAIRTLES guy?

I have seen exactly one episode of that show, and it involved a Scottish man expressing vociferous concern over his turtles.

TELL ME IT'S MAH TAIRTLES GUY.

[muji]

Well, there's only one Scottish guy.

...I don't remember turtles.

[lienne.livejournal.com]

He had turtles! And stuff.

Also apparently he died.

It must be him!

MAH TAIRTLES.

*misses Carson liek wo*

*misses Carson's turtles*

[muji]

His hair was like that.

[lienne.livejournal.com]

...?

[muji]

Carson's hair looks like Sylar's from that icon.

[lienne.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha.

It still makes me want to do dirty thnigs to him, no matter what accent he's using.
