Quote:Had been to the movies yesterday and watched with two friends "Madagascar 2". It's a nice animated and entertaining movie. And you don't need to know the story of the first film to understand this one.
Hmmmmm, zoo animals in Africa....

American Graffiti, or at least 2/3 of it. So wanted to like it but not enough plot to hold my interest.
Not exactly a film but almost halfway through Carnivale S2 which I'm enjoying

Oh yes, "poetically vulgar", that`s the phrase I was looking for :wink: ! This series reminds me how our lanquage was so much richer in the old days. Just read some old letters and you`ll see what I mean...
What language do you watch Deadwood in? It would be interesting to know if it is so "colourful" and complex in other languages too.

In Finland we NEVER watch dubbed films! We always watch everything with texts running at the bottom of the screen. It would be a rape to have for example Jake LaMotta of "Raging bull" or Homer Simpson dubbed! Original lanquage is such an important part of an art-form like movies, methinks.
Sometimes when I see foreign dubbed films it almost makes me want to vomit :evil: ...

Yeah, I agree there Virilis.
You lose a lot in dubbed films, even if it is done well.
I used to love watching the Chinese movies in Borneo....subtitles or not..

I agree I'd much rather read the subtitles. Think I saw Mr Vampire dubbed but it was so stupidly funny it added to it. And Baywatch into Spanish but who watched it for the script anyway :lol:

Virilis, I guess you never noticed that there were girls on Baywatch, wearing tight swimsuits? OK, just so you'll know, there were. Heh. :wink:
