That means you'd need six guys to perform an airlock on one.

IT'S A BUS
WHICH IS A CAT.

From 'My Neighbour Totoro'. Such a fantastic film.
( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:47, archived)

its a frickin' awesome
film indeed.
( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:48, archived)

the only thing that annoys me about that film
is that before i saw it, i thought 'tot or oh'
but the yank dubbing has it as 'tow tor oh'
(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:49, archived)

never watch
miyazaki with dubbing, always subs.
( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:52, archived)

bollocks to that
cartoons only work properly when dubbed
(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:53, archived)

Lies
the only miyazaki film that works well with the overdubbing is Spirited Away.
( xmaschordal la la la la la, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:54, archived)

howl's castle works fine dubbed

NO IT DOESN'T!
O_O


I have seen both the dubbed version and the subtitled version and seeeriously, the subtitled one has way more oomph to it.

Bah, I fully love foreign cinema and hate to see it raped by American dubbing :(
( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:01, archived)

I tend to find the one I watch first is the one I prefer,
whichever that may be. Some sort of indelible link between character and voice occurs.

well
i really love the miyazumaincky films
and i've only ever seen the dubbed versions

so i don't care
(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:04, archived)

well then your argument falls apart.
no matter.
( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:07, archived)

Don't get me wrong
They are still ACE dubbed.

Just not as ace as they are with Japanese.
It adds to the crazy and surreal vibe, I find.

i can't watch a proper film that's dubbed, but i can't be arsed reading a cartoon

akira is SO much better dubbed than subbed, and from that point on i have never bothered with subbed cartoons
(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:56, archived)

i'm cool with either, i don't really mind too much
but sometimes dubbing can be ace i.e patrickk stewart and alfred molina in Steamboy. sometimes it can be down right bizarre i.e. anna paquin in steamboy, playing a 12 year old mancunian boy
( Tom O'Bedlam Fuck Boom Rapist, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:02, archived)

seriously
american dubbing is shite.

but get the subtitled version!

With every fibre of my being.



Subtitled films kick arse.

but you miss so much while you're reading

(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:02, archived)

Precisely!
It probably helps that my dad is deaf and I have grown up with subtitles on the telly, so I'm mega used to reading them quickly and still paying attention to what's going on. However, I am suuuure that having films in the original language makes them miiiles better.
( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:04, archived)

couldn't agree more

*high five*
So what are your kinda top foreign films and stuff, if you have any?
( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:11, archived)

*fives back*
Most miyazaki stuff, Oldboy, Paprika, Battle Royale, City Of God, Letters From Iwo Jima.

These are all amazing films. You?
( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:15, archived)

letters from iwo jime hardly counts as foreign. it was directed by clint eastwood

( Tom O'Bedlam Fuck Boom Rapist, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:20, archived)

It was subbed though.

( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:24, archived)

Oldboy for the epic win.
One of my favourite films ever.

I lovelovelove Pan's Labyrinth.

Still a huge fan of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon too...

Letters from Iwo Jima was really good but it kinda narked me that it's an American Film, just feels weird.
Have you seen Brotherhood, by any chance?
( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:20, archived)

Yeh forgot to mention
Pans Lab and The Orphanage!!! Sry.

Yeh CrouchTiger/FlyingDaggers/Hero all good too.

Not seen brotherhood, I will now though. :)
( PointlessCamel Last one on drugs is a queer., Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:23, archived)

Brotherhood's properly good
All the Korean films I've seen have been stunning. Sort of weird, in some cases, but a treat for the old noodle nonetheless.

The Host is one of the crazy ones... I'm sure it makes more sense if you're actually Korean.

(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 22:57, archived)

i have no money at all at the moment.
i take the view that if someone genuinely cannot afford to pay to see or hear someones art then they should be allowed to see it free. i buy stuff when i can afford it and art is created to be witnessed. if it was me making a film i'd rather have people see my creation than get paid for it.

( Face will put on her red shoes and nrans the blues, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:09, archived)

hmm
whilst i understand where you are coming from, i mostly* disagree

*'mostly' because i do indulge in piracy on occasion myself
(John Leslie, Sun 29 Jun 2008, 23:11, archived)

its also woth considering that those involved in the actual manufacturering of the movies (the actors, writers and directors)
have normally already been paid before the film is shown in cinemas so the only people losing any money are the big corporations who i have no love for at all
