Why the fuck is this a thing? Is it really that hard just doing all of the fucking dialogue in English?

>A film, also called a movie, motion picture, theatrical film, or photoplay, is a series of still images which, when shown on a screen, creates the illusion of moving images due to the phi phenomenon.

Why do film makers insist on having you read so fucking much? Why take up so much space of the screen to do something so fucking annoying?

Oh and I forgot to add that nowhere in this article does it say that a film has text splashed all over it on every single scene. Films deal in visuals, not words like a book would. Foreign films are not actually movies

It was one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. It takes talent to cross the language barrier with your movie and still be engaging.

Ever watched a Russian movie where they used something like google translate to do the subs? Or, watch an anime where the translator is actually commenting on the events of the movie as though he's there watching it? Ever know a good bit of the language and you see the subtitles are actually translated incorrectly and really mess with the entire vibe of the movie/show?

That's the worst things I can think of for subs. If you don't know the language at all, go ahead with the dubs. Then you don't have to read anything and you still get the shitty translation.

No and no. If reading subs withholds you from watching great foreign cinema, you should fuck off and play with your toys or something.

>>83912599

Yes it fucking is. Think of all the English words you know. It's a lot. Then you have to learn new words for every single one of those. It's fucking bullshit.

Come on, most movies are in English anyway. How do you think non English speakers feel when they watch English movies? Maybe the French are happy to get a film in French every now and then so they don't have to sit and read subtitles.

I worked in Uganda for a few years (before it went to absolute shit) and people would do that on the regular. They'd be speaking in shitty tribal languages then crack into English to explain what they actually meant. English has over 250,000 words, click-click tongue has like 20 different clicks.

Can you imagine the pure red faced shame that must come on a daily basis with living the way these people do
It would be like having to get a work colleague to tie your shoes or bathe you because you're too incompetent as a supposedly grown adult to actually function by yourself
I mean you're sincerely admitting that you can't read, how do you live with yourself?
>>
>>83914166
Come on man... the whole world speaks English. Why pretend you can't? It's just unnecessary foreign films make you read when it's a movie which should involve little to no reading. It's like expecting you to watch music.

I've never met anyone who couldn't speak English... dickhead...

>>83914280
If foreign people who aren't good at english were to speak it in any kind of serious movie, it would completely ruin the movie due to the goofy ass pronunciations, dialects and accents.

Can you imagine watching something like Oldboy with all the characters speaking in broken as fuck gook english?

You're a fucking idiot mate. When the Japanese make videogames which are set in a country outside of Japan they make all the dialogue in the foreign language and subtitle it in their own. Even British film directors manage to do stuff like this, Gareth Evans (a Welshman) has made films in Japanese and Indonesian. It's called artistic integrity, and not being a nation full of fat fucking arrogant morons. Outside of the US, dubs are only used for TV shows and films made for literal babies.

Just shows how uneducated you are. Oldboy is part of a "trilogy" consisting of Oldboy, Sympathy For Mr Vengeance and Sympathy For Lady Vengeance. All 3 are critically acclaimed movies and the director, Chan-wook Park, is hailed as a top tier movie makers in the whole world.
>>
>>83915209
oh wow you really showed me why don't you fucking KILL yourself you weaboo faggot

Have you heard of a little trilogy called Rush Hour? the amount of fucking nips and chinks in that movie and they all turned around and said 'let's do this, but English."

Guess what happened? Massive hit, great, funny movies. Infinitely better in every way than your weaboo faggot ass shit. When will weaboos learn?

I enjoy the musicality of foreign languages even if I don't understand them. The actor's talent, expression permeates the language barrier.

It is nice if they have multiple sub tracks. One for everything. One for signs only. One for notations, etc. That's kind of rare though.

No in the context of the vast majority of non-arabic speaking Africans, they will frequently switch to english or french for the purposes of vocabulary.

>>83915629
Why not? The russian constantly switched between russian and french when fighting Napoleon on 1812 and on the war of the Third Coalition.
>>
>>83915629
They might have.

Faggot, I assume that guy / you meant just two normal people in a modern setting, not two generals seventy years ago. Of course shit was different back then; they might be switching between German and a regional language or Dutch or some shit (if they both knew it).

This has happened for millennia. The ancient Romans knew Latin but generally used Greek because everyone knew it across the Empire, but I am sure they would slip in and out of using Latin at times because why not if your friend understands it too.

>>83915994
Nope, not even close. English is a dirty mixed breed language spoken by peasants who made it up after being raped by Vikings, Saxons, and the French.

And this is coming from an Anglophone.

>>83916107
You forgot the Romans.
It's still the superior language.

>>83916293
Getting pilliaged and raped by different cultures for centuries so much that you end up composing a language based on all the cultures that ever forced their cock down your throat before they stole your property and wife is the superior language?
