I have never understood why translation movies and tv shows would be so great, it works for kids shows, but adults can deal woth subtitles

    My eight year old followed along for a three hour stage production of Spirited Away in Japanese, with subtitles projected above. So I guess technically supertitles. Point being, kids can handle subs just fine.

    A dubbed version of something is basically a warped parody of it. But dub fans get really defensive about it.

    Ah, but how about a dubbed version spoken by American robot voices, where the foreign actors uncannily mouth American words? Wouldn't that be a joy and a gift to the world? Eventually we might even be able to replace all foreign actors with a young Harrison Ford.
