Do you watch your movies in another language than English ?

Post by Anaël »

The question is very easy :)

Don't forget to specify if you watch it with or without subtitles and if you understand what you hear ! ;)

Concerning myself, I watch all Disney's movies in English and French ! :D English sometimes without English subtitles and French without subtitles.

Well, I don't, but Kram (he's still gone, he's so upset) for some reason loves to watch Snow White in all the languages. He's probably memorized it already.

Why's Kram gone?! :? :? Instead of being left in the know, I'm left in the no.

Anywho, back on topic. I watch films in English, sometimes with subtitles. I had trouble yesterday with subtitles, watching A New Hope. For some reason, Greedo's and Jabba's subtitles were in French.... :? :?
Cheers,
JM :thumb:

School started, and he's taken a lot of work-intensive AP classes, so he's basically kissed the internet goodbye until winter break. I try to get him to take a break, and go boarding for an hour or two, but he's so insistent upon finishing his work that half the time he's complaining about it.

Funny how he's only in high school and has loads of work, whilst I'm in college and can still manage work and UD and other sites.

You have very little available choices. Disney films are not only available in these foreign languages. What about Chinese, Japanese or Korean? :roll:

I, as a Hong Konger, watch Disney films sometimes in Cantonese, but English (or the original language the film was made) is always better.

or for Joe Carioca, portuguese :D

I agree there shoulda been more choices! ;) like one that said "i watch them in several languanges" (or can you click repeatedly re-voting several times? mmmm vote cheating! yeah! :P)

Cus i not only watch them sometimes in different languages, but sometimes in different ACCENTS :P like Beauty and the Beast which i've listened in 4 languages (one of them in 2 accents) so far.

i watch them sometimes with subtitles and sometimes without them, and sometimes with the english subtitles and sometimes with the other languages subtitles (which many times don't correspond to what's being said in the translated audio but to the original english dialogue) For the Latin derived languages i undertand most of what is said. Well sometimes, anyway! :lol:

I live in Israel so naturally all my VHS are in hebrew 'cause I bought all of them when I was little. Today I enjoy the english versions more but still, the only one I own both in hebrew and english is "The Little Mermaid".

Well,

I'm Brazilian so I watch the Disney movies in Portuguese, but not only because I'm Brazilian, but because here in Brazil the movies are very well dubbed, specially the Disney ones. I also like to watch them in Spanish and in English too, of course ;)

Personally I like watching the movies an every language offered I mean in English you know I am fluent as well as in spanish but when I watch it is spanish I watch it with Spanish subtitles if offered just to see how the words are spelled because I am working on that part and in French for pure fun I usally understand a lot since Spanish and French are pretty close and with Enligh subtitles incase I cant follow but thats reae, Usaully I have the movie memorized. So its fun :D .

I live in the US but enjoy watching my DVDs with French dubbing. Unfortunately, a lot of them don't offer subtitles and I'm better at reading than at listening (I have trouble distinguishing words sometimes). I would really appreciate being able to watch with French subtitles.
A message for the guy taking AP classes: good luck. Your hard work will pay off, and it's worth it.

I practically always watch a movie in its original language - dubs are usually a waste IMO (except for kids). Of course, if the original language is one that I don't understand, I'm in need of subtitles in English or Norwegian or any other language that I understand.
