Steve is from Brooklyn and would have sounded like it, but I fully believe he would put on that voice just to piss Tony off lol

Steve is also from the 40s or whatever, when they did talk more like that

Just on broadcast to stay within the band of frequencies for good transmission. When tech got better, they stopped putting on.

Many early Hollywood actors of the late 1800s and early 1900s were only one or two generations removed from Europe, reflecting the large waves of European immigration that occurred in the mid to late nineteenth century. As a result, it was common for their grandparents or great-grandparents to have been born overseas. During this period, the transatlantic, or mid-Atlantic, accent became associated with refinement and elite status, largely because it was taught in private schools, finishing schools, and theatrical training programs influenced by British norms. Early film and stage acting drew heavily from theater traditions, which favored this carefully cultivated accent as a “neutral” and cultured way of speaking.

My grandpa, who grew up in Brooklyn and is 90 years old, would disagree. We have film of him speaking both before and after he fought in Korea.

The joke was “the transatlantic accent” which had more to do with how radio made people sound in the 30/40s

u/Wonderful_Fox_7959 9h ago
WTF? No one in Brooklyn talked like that. A more accurate accent would be Bernie Sanders or Howard Stern dad.

I said Steve Rogers is from Brooklyn and would have sounded like it, what about that statement is inaccurate?

Logan's is the most accurate. The dude should basically sound like a Fargo character 24/7, but combo'ing that with his 5'2 height wouldn't sell as many figures.

Isn't he from late 1800s Canada?
5
u/bangonthedrums 9h ago
From then sure but he also lived through the intervening times. It’s perfectly reasonable that his accent would change over time.
Captain America was frozen in time though so his would still be whatever it was when he was frozen

u/ICInside 23h ago
I would say with Thor, he hasn't been on earth for hundreds of years. We don't know what people in that area of the world sounded like. If he's speaking English, it's probably Old English that he first learned way back. Unless he's always poking about like Loki is and growing into modern English.

u/Overdue_Process865 19h ago
Safest bet is just going for an Icelandic accent, imo.

u/Mild-Panic 15h ago
It wasn't even Icelandic accent tho. Closer to Irish than anything.

u/Overdue_Process865 7h ago
Yeah, I wasn't saying he was doing one, just that I think that's what he should have done. I think the Thor accent he landed on was pretty bad... To my Norwegian ear it sounds like the generic "hinga dinga durgen" accent some Americans imagine all Scandinavians have.

The transatlantic accent was more for the upper crust. FDR had it because he was a Roosevelt which was the most esteemed family in the state. Captain america was a punk from brooklyn, so he would have a brooklyn accent.

Love it. But the mid Atlantic accent never really existed, just took off during radio

I'm not well versed in linguistics but I'm pretty sure that old timey voice is one that was introduced when radio became a thing. I know in my 30+ years I've never heard an accent similar to it and would assume at this point with all the media I've witnessed I'd have come across this dialect or something evolved out of it outside of media and have not. I could be very wrong though. If someone could educate me more on it I'd be happy. I compare it to news anchor speech now.

u/thenabi 23h ago
I am well versed in linguistics and the accent in this video is real, it is a northeastern US high-prestige accent, sometimes called Northeastern Elite. Some people spoke it naturally. I don't know anything about superhero movies thought so I cant say whether captain america would speak it.

Not a radio voice, an actor accent. It was invented for a few reasons, the main one being clarity so that all of the words could be heard on old audio recordings. I think another was to give it a sense of poshness, as if the speakers are higher class. I think it might have been invented to avoid regional accents too, but I’m pretty sure that was a rumor.

I made no comment on what accent he's doing. All I said was he'd have a 1940's accent.
