heres the trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/blooddiamond/

leo has been really good in his last 3-4 films, but jesus christ, his accent in this is so bad it makes me want to strangle a baby.

10/17/2006 10:03:08 PM

A black baby? Because that would just be wrong.

Damn, you are right. I couldn't even finish the trailer it was so bad, I couldn't imagine being forced to sit through the entire movie.

HAHAHA, yeah I saw that shit when Iwent to see the departed. Damn that accent is horrible.

10/18/2006 9:52:55 AM

this movie was nothing short of awesome.

12/9/2006 10:28:29 PM

mmmm... diamonds

12/9/2006 11:46:50 PM

it sounded pretty real to me

12/10/2006 12:05:53 AM

In america its bling bling but in africa its bling BANG!

12/10/2006 12:46:08 AM

I'm gonna go see this, and when Leo says that ^ I'm gonna stand up and cheer, just like all you nerds did when Sam Jackson was like I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THESE MOTHERFUCKIN' SNAKES ON THIS MOTHERFUCKIN' PLANE!!!

12/10/2006 1:49:50 AM

They weren't cheering. They were repeating it in unison.

12/10/2006 3:06:41 AM

Accent = unwatchable.

12/10/2006 3:14:26 AM

When I lived in london, I stayed with 4 guys from southern Africa (2 from S.A., 1 from Mozambique, and 1 from Botswana) and I have to say, some of you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. I've never been a huge fan, but Di Caprio's accent is just about spot-on....
He obviously spent a lot of time getting down the pronunciation and vernacular.

12/10/2006 8:35:34 AM

when does the black guy work in "I wll see you again, but not yet"

12/10/2006 8:38:40 AM

Just because it's accurate doesn't mean it's not unwatchable.

12/10/2006 9:59:47 AM

I had a professor from SARTH EFFRIKA and I think Leo does a pretty good job of capturing the accent

12/10/2006 10:16:29 AM

i love how all these fucks come on here spouting their faux expertise about a dialect they know not bat shit about.

awesome.

12/10/2006 10:26:08 AM

12/10/2006 11:11:56 AM

I didn't think his accent was bad at all...

You'll forget about his accent anyways, once you see how bad ass he is. Talking Rambo style.

he took serious meds to get as ripped as he is for this movie.

He looks double the size he did in the Departed.

12/10/2006 3:41:25 PM

12/10/2006 4:03:32 PM

Jennifer Connelly was pretty damn hot.

12/10/2006 4:56:46 PM

Amazing movie.

12/10/2006 7:03:52 PM

pretty hectic movie, eh?

[i don't think anybody will get that]

12/10/2006 7:10:06 PM

OMF! NO BLOOD FOR DIAMONDZ!

12/10/2006 7:31:21 PM

decent film
i thought it dragged throughout most though
and the very ending should have been left out

12/10/2006 9:35:15 PM

the accent prob just sounds horrible cause you've never heard anything like it before

most accents would sound silly at first

12/10/2006 9:43:43 PM

That, and the fact that I already know he is American.

12/10/2006 9:47:12 PM

More importantly, how was the Die Hard 4 trailer?
