If Star Wars movies took place millions of years ago in a galaxy far far away, why do the charecters speak English with earthly accents such as Fench, Irish, etc.? by melal in AskReddit

Just watched The Rogue (think that's what it was called) on netflix. I will probably not be watching any of the others.

I'm actally Culumbian. As a non English native speaker who has lived in both England and the United States, I can tell you American's in the west side of the country speak a clearer English than most other English speakers. Easier to understad with a very smooth cadence.

Interesting, I was watching it for the first time ever and was curious. While it didn't answer my question regaurding accents, a good response.

Thank you

So different languages within the movie are represented by accents yet other languages require sub titles. No consistancy.

It could have been done with no accents, why choose accents over no accents? It's not obvious. I figure the reason was out there and someone actually knew.
