The Lion KIng came first too.. and as we know there are a few similarities between the two movies. I once heard TLK was loosely based around Hamlet too which might add to it.

Yeah i think that he is British now. Cool a british actor who was in Balto met my Granny

I think Bob Hoskins is Russian. For some reason i like that accent people from london have(no insult) and it doesent sound to me like it was that london accent.

Why is it that a lot of people can't get their heads round the idea of putting on an accent? I can do an Irish accent but I'm not Irish. To quote Team America "that's why they call it acting".

ive tried believe me ive tried. But the only thing i can say in a london accent is 'Bloody Hell'

lol, ron from harry potter!!

Well, he can be a little of both. In my opinion, london and russian accents sounds almost exactly alike...if they are at all.

LOL they don't sound anything like each other... that's like me sayhing the American accent sounds just like Jamaican accent lol.

The London accent is actually refered to as "Cockney" and is famous for the rhyming slang used to confuse tourists e.g. china plate = mate, bubble bath = laugh. It is quite close to Muk and Luks accent in the original but more so in the sequels..

Hmm...

Well, after some research, I found that Bob Hoskins is actualy British. So unless you think an English accent sounds somewhat like a Russian one, well...

Yeah i found that he is British and he was born only around an hours drive from my house! Ive been to where he is born a few times before,Suffolk im from Norfolk

I think he is from England but im not sure
