What accents from across the globe do you find funny, appealing, cool, or attractive?

Spoiler: Funny story about a British accent

I remember a story from my grandpa about a nationalized British man he used to work with in the union. He still had an accent, and used colloquial terms when referring to particular things. Most notably, he called dish soap "fairy juice." Because of that, my grandpa and his work pals would always screw with him and call him a queer and fairy. These were better times for sure.

I like:

Russian accent in English

Cantonese accent in French (or, let's be real, in anything, it's perfection)

English accent in Japanese

Punic accent in Latin

Just kidding about the last one, that's how Hannibal sounded and I'm extremely curious about what it sounded like.

Boston accent because they're funny

I love the pronunciation Bostonians have on certain words. I'm Midwestern (probably the most boring group of accents in world) but will pronounce dog like "daug," or coffee like "cauffee" sometimes just because it's fun.

Arabic accents can be hit or miss. I've met some arab girls who could pull it off, but I don't regret not marrying one

Donegal has probably the nicest accent in Ireland, it's pleasant on the ear and not too harsh like other Ulster counties. Connacht accents are nice as well, particularly Mayo and Roscommon, but they go a little too far into leprechaun territory for me and I just can't take them seriously.

Kerry has the funniest, also genuinely impossible to understand, it's like a different fucking language.

Dublin has the worst by far, it's actually awful. You either sound like a pretentious posh cunt with a literal stick up your arse from your rugby club's induction day, or you're a mewling retard that can barely speak and who will probably knife someone over a pair of trainers that don't even fit you.

My favorites have always been Australian and Russian.

I have a thing for male Australian accents. Aussie talks to me and my knees buckle.

Never played the video game (any good?) but the first two movies I've seen a fair amount.

I’d give the game a recommend, it still holds up and it’s fun especially if you have car-tisym. It’s not a game to beat right away it’s definitely a pick up at small increments and enjoy the ride game.

My biggest gripe though is if you don’t like the Batman games you may not like this. The beginning of the game does a pretty good job of hiding it’s shared assets but towards the end of the game the costume max wears is obviously a reskin if the bat suit and all the fights are the 40 enemy beat down button mashing moments.
