Because I recently had to crumple up a cracKKKa who wandered into this community, uhh, let me be clear:

    While not perfect I do love the addition of latin american spanish vs spain spanish in shows and stuff. Having to hear spain spanish is meow-tableflip that being said I do get lost if it's not specifically spanish from mexico. Tried to watch some films from argentina/columbia and I got to really pay attention

      Oh yea some accents are kinda hard to follow sometimes, good luck when you want to watch chilean shows

        yea I sometimes put some films on to chill with my parents and after a bit it becomes clear neither of us knows what is happening

          Chileans have one of the strangest and harder to understand accent of spanish speakers, some people call it a dialect (mostly as a joke), if it wasnt for my parents i probably would understand it very much

              they speak fast, its has distinctive pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and slang usages, its because it developed kinda isolated from the other spanish dialects because of the andes

        Cantinflas films are pretty good though I might be bias though nostalgia since I've watched them with my parents growing up. IF you want B horror slop Santos movies are good too. I know you asked for fav but gonna include these as mini genres since they are kind of carried by their main actor.

      I went to the DR thinking I could continue practicing what I call Spanish only to learn that I actually speak very basic Mexican

        There are a bunch of old black and white movies on yt if you ever interested in seeing the different spanish various latin american countries talk like. Still I feel you, while back talked to one of my sister's friends from columbia and I could barely keep up with him.
