Humungous accent

Post by bniswe »

From trivia page:


Humungous also has a German accent - Tim thinks Humungous' father was probably a Nazi in the SS.





He does not have a german accent, it is a swedish accent for sure. I know becouse I am swedish and talk in english in the same way as H :-). Also H was portrayed by a swedish actor.

while it may be true it was played by a swede the humongus was no doubt ment to be a german. for on the skull and cross bones on both the wez bike, the red xa "rocky" bat car and in humongus gun case was infact insignia from ss hierarchy's. i saw the exact symbol on the histroy channel file footage of the ss. and in american dubbing of raod warrior it was made alto mroe german then the earopean version.


so while he may have been played by a swede there is too much evidence that he was suppsoed to be of german decent.

Mad Max was redubbed for in American. The Road Warrior was released in the US with the original Austrailian diolouge.


Assuming Humungous had Nazi roots is just that, an assumption.


You know what happens when you assume....

The Australian "accent" is caused by our beautiful weather!....unlike colder climates , our nasal passages are clear...taking advantage of this, Orstraylainz have taken to "talking through their noses"...(talking through one's nose allows room for more important tasks, like drinking beer) and that's what givin us our distinctive twang!


Now, All advantages of this is lost when an Aussie a)has a cold or b)has an ice-hockey mask on. During these times Aussies sound exactly like Swedes...or Northern Germans


New Zealanders "accent" is caused by their beautiful wethers...Wethers being lady sheep.... the combination of cold weather, pretty wethers and being totally crap at cricket has lead to a condtion where Kiwis now just talk a load of bollocks......hehehe!Image

Humungous (Kjell Nilsson) is Swedish and not German. He has an excellent taste in guns, but i don`t think the nazi assumptions based on weaponry or logos on wez`s bike are justified.


Chase, as my science teacher used to say 27 years ago, to assume.....makes an ass of u and me Image

Personally I thought he might have adopted the Nazi symbols possibly for scare tactics or as he ruled with such authoity like Hitler did!!

Cam the New Zealand "accent" is actually an "uc-sunt " ...to speak Australian you just glue your back teeth together ...New Zealanders don't play "cricket",they play "crick-ut",completely different game to us Aussies...coz in "crick-ut " the rules state all NZers must lose Image [/font]
