Los acentos de Sur America son varios tambien, yo distingo muy bien el argentino, el mejicano, el colombiano y el ecuatoriano, los demás son similares. La mayor diferencia entre el castellano de España y el español americano es el distinto uso de ciertos vocablos, que a veces nos suenan a chino, pero en general se mantiene una vonversación perfectamente. Y dudo que se doblen las películas a no ser que se trate de un lenguaje de la calle o una jerga específica de un grupo de gente, que ni los oriundos del país lo entienden.
Para nosotros lo difícil sería distinguir a un escocés de uno de Nueva York, por ejemplo

Bueno creo que no tan difícil, porque son dos acentos muy diferenciados, si me dices uno de New York y otro de New Jersey. Pero el escocés es inconfundible, y el Americano tambien.

Since these languages have developed allopatrically (in separate geographic areas), what is the Latin American perception of European Spanish?

Por ejemplo:
In the United States, an "English" accent is oftentimes associated with being proper (or, in some cases, even intelligent).
Very often the villains in American films are portayed by oily characters who speak with "Queen's English" accents.

En Inglaterra pensamos que las personas qui hablan castellano tienen un defecto del habla. En inglés dice "a lisp."

Cinco Zapatos = thinko thapatos

Of course, I don't!

Why when one says "cinco zapatos" it sounds as if there were a fault of speaking? I don't understand.

Es porque hay ingleses qui no pueden prononcer el son "S". Dicen "Th" en lugar de "S". We say they are speaking with a Lisp.

But I never pronounce "cinco" as /sinko/ (more or less), but /zinko/. It's the same sound than th in "think".
