Paladin I think he means.

being anal about every single detail huh?

There's a reason why the games blew everyone away, and the movie tanked.

Nope. I couldn't really give a rusty F word that the Rapier could only go at such a speed in the game but could go faster in the movie. Or that there are sounds in space. I didn't even pick up on the Rosie thing until it was pointed out to me.

Movie Rapier != WC1/2 Rapier

Proper advertising and marketing is definitely one of them.

Bitching and whining about a tiny inaccuracy like an accent did not tank the movie. Karyo is a damned fine actor and did much more with his roll than anyone else in the movie did with theirs.

And, I'm willing to wager, more than most of the people who bag the movie would ever dream of.

He is definitely a huge bright spot in the movie. He always gets such great lines in movies and delivers them great.
