I hope this one doesn’t get locked, because it probably has the best title in the history of threads. 🙂 ---

To be honest, because the year of the original posts was 2003, my poor befuddled brain substituted 2013 and I was not aware that it was a zombie when I read it. Then I noticed a post from **Dio** and suddenly had a strange sensation of trading upon unholy ground. I like both movies having watched them in the theater when they came out. ---

Calling **Fenris** an “ignorant slut” and doing it in a correct manner, makes this revival worthy. Defend yourself(again), worthless one. 😃 ---

I just want to defend Dick Van Dyck. I’ve seen a thousand people beat on him for the accent, as if he were simply incapable of doing a real accent for the role. Hell, earlier in this thread people were speculating that Disney just HAD to have a guy who could dance and were stuck with Van Dyck even though he couldn’t do the voice. That’s crap. DVD was doing it on purpose because he was being funny! Agh! ---

If he could’ve done the accent correctly, that was a real dyck move not to. ---

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > If he could’ve done the accent correctly, that was a real dyck move not to. Dyck move or not, if he had done the accent correctly, the overwhelming majority of the intended audience (American/Canadian) would have never understood a word he said. (Ever see Bob Hoskins speaking his native dialect instead of using his American dialect?) ---

> [@samclem](#): > > Calling **Fenris** an “ignorant slut” and doing it in a correct manner, makes this revival worthy. > > Defend yourself(again), worthless one. 😃 The real question is, is Fenris indeed an ignorant slut? Is he _still_ an ignorant slut? ---
