Brice de Nice

For this one, forget the natural French pronunciation (breece deh neece) and make both rhyme with "nice", in an attempt to sound cool. Brice de Nice is the number one movie in France, and depicts the life of Brice, a loser who think's he's a cool surfer and uses stupid expressions like:

je t'ai cassé! (je tay kassay) , literally "I broke you!", used when winning an argument by silencing the opponent. Used by kids no older than 5, that is.

ça farte ? (sa fart), literally "you waxin' ?", supposedly an expression used by surfers

Although most people I know who've seen it describe the movie as stupid and not particularly funny, it's turning out to be a huge success.
