Everybody's tryin' to get into the act...

It seems as if spoofing Boston has become a cottage industry in the last week, what with The Daily Show's priceless coverage of the special Senate election, 30 Rock's Boston episode (with Julianne Moore's intentionally[?] overblown accent), and, now, the AMC Blog's take on bad Boston movie accents. It's actually only a so-so list, leaving out a major offender (Anne Bancroft in Malice) and including some characters (Kate Winslet's in Little Children and Joe Pesci's in With Honors) who are, if memory serves, never even established as being from Boston. Besides, would anyone really want to sit through two hours of Joe Pesci trying to do a Boston accent? That'd be retahded!
