The only thing I don't get though is why every historical epic requires british accents. Seriously, it's ancient greek. Anyway, maybe a few people from the UK can comment.
Please don't take this the wrong way, I'd rather that way than american accents :p Just puzzles me is all.

Saw the trailer before Homes and Avatar - Looks soooo cool.
On another note met Sam Worthington in London the other week - was a real nice guy. Spent about 20 min talking about his fav films in a bar in Soho. He dose not sound like a Aussie at all.

I think I can answer that. You need an intelligent villain, otherwise there's no threat, and british accents sound more intelligent, more refined.Originally posted by Jay

England has a very diverse set of accents in a very small space. Yorkshire and Lancashire are right next to each other and both have very different accents. I've lived on the border all my life and it still amazes me.
Having said that, I quite like the myth

LoL
Nah, i have to agree with swert. British villains sound more intelligent then some American bloak saying " A` Holmes....Lets go kill us som` G's down 'n de hood. den we can axe da man fo some billz y0"
another good reason...Most of the good actors to come to light recently are either brits or ausies......and to top it off...Alot of Americans find a British accent Damn sexy....i know i do...Hell give Diane Kruger or Kate Beckensale a phone book and a chair, and I'd listen to her read it all day long...with wood!.. well, her accent isn't the only reason for the later but...lol.

Well the world is a small place mate. My lot are from Wales and also New York. My Dads side are from Mountain Ash in the Valleys, hence the name Edwards too, so thats a bit of a giveaway, and my mum lot are stateside. But I grew up in hertfordshire and moved to Kent where the world is a better place...except for the damn snow right now!!
Im just down the road from you in Tonbridge, and our other member here GioChrono is in Tunbridge Wells
Best
