Well, I suppose it all has to do with upbringing. I grew up hearing "CaRIBbean" on TV and from relatives, and then in the movies I hear "CaribBEan," and it sounds weird. It was only a couple of years ago that I actually bothered to notice that they were the same thing. Well, since I grew up hearing "CaRIBbean," I'm probably bound to think it sounds better. Same for people who grew up with "CaribBEan."

usually CaribBEan, especially when referring to the movie.. but sometimes when I talk about the actual Caribbean it tends to come out as CaRIBbean
