The many accents thing. Granted someone from another country will most likely not be able to tell the different between a Norfolk accent and a Norwichian accent, or even a Norfolk accent and a West Country accent... but is a British accent meant to be Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, Cockney or Queen's English. I'd wager the last one, but it still seems silly.
I've never read a Harry Potter book or seen any of the movies, but I saw the trailers, and was quite bemused about why they showed loads of bits that demonstrated very bad acting. Plus it's got Brian Blessed in, so I'm keeping my distance from them. The books I did decide once I wanted to read them, but to be honest I don't care for wizardry and magic. *yawn*
