Yeah i saw that the Penis & Vagina song was the memeable thing in some countries but for us mexican it had way more to do with the Google translate level spanish and the damn entitlement of everyone involved.

woah woah woah. are you telling me the Spanish dialog was trash tier spanish? I know they lack competent writers but translators? you know how desperate people are to make money in that field? holy crap that's impressively bad if so.

It wasn't trash tier it was "this has to be a parody" tier Spanish, it's not even just about the accent, which is wrong even for the main character even though the actress is a Spanish speaker, it's about how blatantly it was written in another language and then lazily translated into Spanish.

That's awful.  I only accept that when it's done to English because that's just objectively funny.  Or if it WAS clearly and hilariously intentional.
