I am re-watching Supernatural and I am still in love with it, really.  It is the campiest camp that ever camped and it’s wonderful.  But the ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation is honestly getting to me.  It’s like listening to someone speak with a particularly annoying accent.  And it’s not even the messed-up consonants.  I could get used to “achedunt” instead of “accedunt” and “virtus” instead of “wirtus”.  But they are not even trying with the vowels.  Sam Winchester, you speak Latin with a mid-Western accent, and it makes me cringe.  No wonder the ghosts and demons and whatever get all mad when you chant Latin at them!  All of your vowels are flat and it sounds like you are ordering a McChicken sandwich at the drive-thru!  Aargh!
