But I noticed the odd character in this has that particular NY accent.
The thing is, I don't think I've ever seen a black person with that NY accent. Why would that be?

I'm asuming you mean Zeus/Samuel L. Jackson. I didn't think he sounded any different than he did in any of his other movies.
Green Goblin is great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1L4ZuaVvaw
No. I'm talking about some of the white characters who had that accent, like the kid that was shoplifting.
I've not seen (to date) a black person with that NY accent and was wondering why.
I think it's because the accent that the kid had is more of an Italian-New Yorker accent which is probably why most black New Yorkers don't sound like that
shareOh, true?? That's the link - the Italian connection?
That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for that.
Of course the kid DID look Italian too lol.
