No, it's for a screenplay. It's about a woman who successfully teaches a bunch of Redneck kids Shakespeare and writes a book about it. A movie company wants to make it into a film and can't figure out a title, then the producers send down word they want the whole film changed to Pride and Prejudice (She replies, "WHAT? They're gonna call it White Pride and Extreme Prejudice!!!" This is all complicated as they shoot it in her hometown during her twentieth year high school reunion.

All great suggestions! I found the dialectizer a while back, but as one of you kind people pointed out, it doesn't change it much... I'm stumped.

But it ain't redneck. I'd go with something like "Whole Lotta Hootin' an' Hollerin" an' fer Whut?"

"Whole Lotta Hootin' an' Hollerin" an' fer Whut?" Now, I'd had an idea or two myself, but that beats all!

What a pity you're not an Australian. Here we could sum it up in two words: "Bugger All".
