Be careful with saying Ireland is in Britain. It was, it hasn't been for nearly a century. As touchy as Crowe is about his dodgy accent {nm}

Let's go Tugger! {nm} Goines12 May 14, 12:11

this whole mess has got me confused... RazorHawk May 14, 12:13

He doesn't have an Irish accent in the movie... RCROW is Australian {nm} secretstalker May 14, 12:17

joeoftexas was nice enough to post the story, obviously you didnt read it. {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 12:27

Your IM has nothing to do with the story which is just about the BBC guy asking about his Irish accent and him getting mad. {nm} secretstalker May 14, 12:32

I thought you said he was Australian? {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:19

Was responding to this: "A dude with an Irish accent pretending to be British, or an American with no accent pretending to be British? " secretstalker May 14, 13:22

according to that reporter... RazorHawk May 14, 13:27

I read it that the guy thought that Crowe's British accent sounded more Irish (heard this from a few Brits) {nm} secretstalker May 14, 13:31

= "a dude with an Irish accent pretending to be British.." {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:38

Ehr... Ireland is in Britain, or at least the British Isles.. Northern Ireland is part of Great Britain, proper. The thing is, probably, Facto May 14, 14:23

Great Britain is just the big island. {nm} lukesed May 14, 19:44

And Northern Ireland {nm} numbersix_99 May 15, 02:30

Yep, but I mentioned the British Isles. Those, as an archipelago, include all of Ireland. Seems there may be some controversies there as Facto May 15, 06:31

When he wins Oscars, he's Australian. When he throws telephones, he's a New Zealander. {nm} RogerMore May 14, 13:24

correction: when he wins Oscars he is [AUSIE]; when he throws telephones he is [BANAL]! {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 13:29

this. {nm} CSBD May 14, 13:47

I thought Mel Gibson was Australian. {nm} Hooray360 May 14, 16:09

This story is some hours old already. Thought about posting it, but nah.. Who cares? {nm} Facto May 14, 12:20

RCROW isn't aging well in looks or personality. {nm} BuenaOnda May 14, 14:07

What's changed in his personality... ?? At least he didn't throw the headphones or the microphone at the radio interviewer.... {nm} Facto May 14, 14:24

I wonder how many people are so tired of his tantrums that they're simply not going to see the film because he's in it. {nm} mrbeankc May 14, 15:15

A very negligible amount of people, very scattered out across the world - the odd one here and there. Probably too few to mention. {nm} Facto May 14, 15:44

*raises hand* - might Netflix it at X-Mas {nm} RazorHawk May 14, 20:37

Crowe is one of the greatest living film actors. People that don't go because he's in it are, well, idiots. hankquinlan May 14, 21:20

They all sound alike.........British, Irish, Scottish, Austrialian, New Zealand. etc...... {nm} AgentEvil May 14, 16:59
