The worth of Viktor Krum: More on accents, pt. 2–Destin and Chekov

Krum (l) and Chekov (r). Credit: WB/Paramount I’ve written quite a bit on how I feel about the representation of Viktor Krum’s accent, but in the article I wrote on it the most, I had to use Youtube to help me. Now, after coming back from my vacation in Destin, I have real-life proof,...

Spock/Uhura analysis

Review: Star Trek boldy goes as the year’s first summer blockbuster
