Would you watch a film if it was subtitled?
 

I know some people who just point blank refuse to watch a film if it has subtitles. I know you have to concentrate more on the screen, but would it bother you? And I mean an actual film. Not just some random foreign porn flick. :evilgrin:

Yes, it doesn't bother me at all. Dubbed films annoy me however.

It puts me off them before I watch them, but once the film is actually on am not too bothered

Yea, can't watch dubbed stuff

Of course Ive seen a few foreign films recently were quite good I think subs makes you pay attention to detail.

Yeah I'm normally fine with them

I watch Japanese Animes with subtitles on so yes I could easily watch a Film with subtitles.

At the end of the day if a story is good then I will watch it, why should I let subtitles put me off?

I hate Dubbed, they sound all cutesy and nothing like the character is suppose to be like.

Of course. If it was dubbed though, I couldn't watch it. The audio not being in sync annoys the hell out of me.

I hate subtitles, but if a movie is good i'll watch it anyway. :)

Don't mind at all

Yeah. I don't mind subtitles at all.

I find them a bit distracting! :tongue:

Yes definitely. I always find after around 10 minutes you don't feel the distraction, the subtitles come across naturally. (Unless it's a really bad film)

Can't watch dubbed. And even though subtitles require total concentration, I don't mind them at all. Some of my favourite films are in foreign languages - Amelie, Goodbye Lenin, Das Leben der Anderen, Battle Royale...

Yeah, subtitles OK, dubbed dreadful .....

The Swedish Girl With the Dragon Tattoo dubbed is actually really good, could barely tell the difference, I saw a dubbed version of Come and See though and it was awful, voices sound stupid and were completely out of sync

Yes.

Although I never really have the paitience.

Yes and I have done. Does detract a little but seen some good ones (not that good that I can't actually recall the titles !!)

I agree... I thought the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was so well-dubbed I kind of forgot about it.

Yeah, I remember having to watch Il Postino for my a-levels and actually quite enjoyed it, actually forgot the subtitles for a bit, it just seemed like a part of it

i watch everything with subtitles anyway so yes of course

Yes definately, I ALWAYS have subtitles on when I watch TV so it doesn't matter too much for me. But only on DVD's though. I would hate it at the cinema.
