Re: Movie Subtitles

It's true! I have seen a lot of mistakes in various languages, especially when translating idioms like 'She's got cold feet (She's apprehensive)'

If you live in a country where 'pirated' DVDs are available, the subtitles are likely to be much, much worse than on the original copies. I guess the Triads don't speak good English!
