What the fuck is that? Where is it from?

I've never heard an accent like that since then. I'd really like some closure here.

Also for reference-

 

[SocksAndShoes]

I think he was going for cajun/creole. It didn't work for him.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Supposed to be South American, but he did a super crap job.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

You gotta post it in gif form

 

[ItIsOkBro]

sounds like he's doing his best tony montana

 

[il Diavolo]

YOU LIKA THAT PRESUME?

 

[Skellig Gra]

I think he was going for cajun/creole. It didn't work for him.

but didn't he speak in spanish at some points?

 

[ISOM]

He played the bad guy so well.

 

[SpaceWolf]

I don't think I've ever watched a film where Jon Voight has given a passable performance.

 

[breakfuss]

LOL! Scarface with a little bit of Gambit?

 

[SocksAndShoes]

I don't think I've ever watched a film where Jon Voight has given a passable performance.

It's been a long time since I've seen the original Mission Impossible but I think he's decent in that.

but didn't he speak in spanish at some points?

Maybe he has a really elaborate backstory of being a snake wrangler near the Texas border or something.

 

[Strangelove77]

I think he was going for cajun/creole. It didn't work for him.

It kind of sounds like a bad Tony Montana impersonation mixed with something else. Probably creole.

Done.

 

[strafer]

I love this movie.

 

[pigeon interrupted]

Supposed to be South American, but he did a super crap job.

Because he was channelling all of his energy into his body language and presence. Masterful performance. Anaconda nails its genre.

Spoiler

am serious

Ummmmm...Champ...Rosewood..

 

[Strangelove77]

For the record, I'm not shitting on the movie. It's entertaining as hell and he's a big reason why.

Enemy Of The State

 

[Slayven]

What was Jodie Foster's accent in Elysium?

 

[strafer]

What was Tom Hardys accent in Locke?

 

[b&jy77VjiKn$#F]

iirc dude watched a bunch of Scarface in his trailer, and decided he wanna channel Montana or something

 

[Fancy Clown]

I don't think I've ever watched a film where Jon Voight has given a passable performance.

Deliverance is awesome

 

[Knuckle Sandwich]

I don't think I've ever watched a film where Jon Voight has given a passable performance.

Midnight Cowboy is pretty good.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Done.

Nice.

What was Tom Hardys accent in Locke?

Welsh.

 

[krae_man]

OP, you listen to Thirty, Twenty, Ten don't you?

 

[Ridley327]

Voight gives perhaps the ultimate unintelligible greasy douchebag performance in that film. He anchors the film with his tremendous overacting whenever the snake isn't doing anything amusing to kill off the next member of the crew.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

What was Tom Hardys accent in Locke?

Wilsh

 

[Strangelove77]

OP, you listen to Thirty, Twenty, Ten don't you?

I do, but I haven't heard the latest one. Do they talk about it?

I just honestly watch the YouTube clip once a month. It's too funny.

 

[One Eyed Willy]

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

This would be a guilty pleasure of mine if I actually felt any guilt about it. Voight and his ridiculous accent is an integral part of this entertaining snake movie.

 

[supermarioworldE]

I always thought Voight's accent was just a bad Inigo Montoya impression.

 

[CHC]

It sounds like Peter Serafinowicz's impression of Marlon Brando

 

[Kobe24]

he had scarface playing for 24 hours in his trailer, to prepare for this amazing performance.

5:22 WOW

Yes, Anaconda is 20 years old tomorrow. You posted your thread one day early!

 

[shnurgleton]

Sounds like Tommy Wiseau

"Lil baby bird". I assumed he was going for South American gangster.

I saw this movie opening day, with my brother. On the way out, I opined that it was possibly the worst movie I'd ever seen, and that it would bomb big time.

My brother said "You're right that it was horrible, but you need to look around. People were eating that shit up."

That was one of my "lost faith in humanity" moments.

 

[Ridley327]

My friends and I completely lost our shit at this moment. If you're gonna go, go out with a bang.

 

[jmdajr]

Came her for this

 

[Smellycat]

lol at that wink

 

[Hjod]

At least he's better than Nicolas Cage, I don't know how you can do a worse Italian accent, ever..

[VenomousCoffee]

Damn, I'd forgotten he killed Kari Wuhrer. sadface

I don't think I've ever watched a film where Jon Voight has given a passable performance.

Heat (kidding)
Deliverance (not kidding)

 

[HyperZone<3]

gosh dang, this is a fun movie.

and Jon Voight is a legit great actor. Runaway Train, Deliverance, Midnight Cowboy. He's got an Academy Award plus three Oscar nominations. He doesn't suck.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Heat (kidding)
Deliverance (not kidding)

??? His skullet in Heat is beautiful.

 

[AuthenticM]

God he's great in this movie. So much ham.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

He was supposed to be Latino right? And had a fucking weird French accent

 

[mjc]

It comes out as a weird mix of Marlon Brando and Tony Montana.

 

[-tetsuo-]

He should have won an oscar

 

[Ridley327]

God he's great in this movie. So much ham.

Given the context of that scene in question, he's definitely more concerned about the rump roast!

 

[peteykirch]

I nominate Vincent D'Onofrio in that Pele movie

[Mr Swine]

I haven't seen this movie I. Ages, but was he still alive when the anaconda spit him out?
