I rented 50 First Dates last week. It was much better then I expected and nearly the whole thing takes place in Hawaii.

yep... insults were generated toward islanders in the movie; 50 first whatevahs

Rob Schneider plays a local named Ula. he speaks with some kinda weird
Mexican accent. (closest thing I can think of...) not local at all.

The site describes its characters:

"...sue and nick work at the Houkilau cafe and try to help lucy (drew
barrymoore) with her problem. Nick's not very bright so its not easy.
after all, he has a tattoo on his face and thinks spam grows on
trees..."

gimme a break. when will it end?!

That is the junkest Pidgin since Hawaii 5-0. Wot? Bumatai boys were busy?

Ula grunts:

"aloha! sorree ubout chore breein."

"whot choo teenk yore doeeng comeeng ovur here, takeeng oar pineupples!?"

and whats with that white boy fake reggae?!
"whoooaooo amber is the color of your energyyyy..."

huh!?

a boycott of the film shoulda ensued purely on the basis of the movie's
sheer stupidity quotient.

reminds me of that old media adage:
"Just because the american public will eat crap doesn't mean you
haveta serve it to them!"
