If I wanted to read I would open a book.
>>220003437My dad hates subtitles so much that while watching some dogshit bbc show where some characters are briefly speaking subtitled german he turned on Narration for the Blind just so he wouldn't have to read them.
>>220003437There's nothing wrong with subtitles per se, but if a movie has them, it's an indication that the content of the movie is shit.
>>220003488>"Character walks into room.:>"man sits in chair opposite woman">"man enters car"This irritation in every other scene was worth it so he wouldn't have to read for even a second. He hates subtitles like I hate ads.But he doesn't hate ads at all.
>>220003531>There's nothing wrong with subtitles per se, but if a movie has them, it's an indication that the content of the movie is shit.What makes you say that?
>Mickey 17Bong Joon Ho is a sellout hack
>>220003582felt like a great movie, an okay movie, and a pile of shit movie all got mushed together
>>220003559I want (You)s.
Americans won't watch subtitled films because they're mostly functionally illiterate.
>>220003437and yet gooks and nips won't go watch a foreign movie unless it's dubbed into their own language.
Edgar Wright soifacing over Bong and spam posting photos of him was one of the strangest things I’ve seen someone do in a while
pal your country exists so i can jerk off to hot asian women, if you aren't putting them nude on screen and having them lesbo kiss, hit the bricks.
>>220003869I was stationed in sk last year. Majority of the shit in theatres was American (english) movies, most of them didnt even have subtitles. I did a quick Google search thinking japs knew English as well as Koreans and thats not true at all.
>>220003488>>220003537>hates subtitles>doesnt hate adsyour dad is goycattle
Reading is for homosexuals
>>220003437Don't you just passively absorb subtitles? I don't think I've ever "read" them
>>220003655
>characters sitting in a room>subtitles: [gunshot] [body hits floor]3 seconds later>a gunshot and the body hits the floorThanks subtitles
>>220004041same here, but lets keep in mind that there's some people who don't even have an internal monologue. and there's people on here right now who will watch stuff like fishtank and the boys. they simply don't have the brain power to automatically read subs.
>>220004083Thanks
>>220004249SDH subtitles are cancer
>>220003488Well your dad is a brainlet and most likely so are you. Reading subtitles is a passive thing, only people who will look at text and have to read it out loud hate subtitles.
>>220003437I don't get the hate for subtitles. Without subtitles I wouldn't understand half of the mumbled shit in English movies.
>>220003437They have actors dubbing the blockbuster releases. Bong was disingenuous. Arthouse indies always show subs.
>>220003437I have AI translating and dubbing all foreign movies for me. the chink can suck it!
>>220005542I always use subtitles for english speaking movies and TV as well because the sound design can be so bad it's really hard to hear. I guess some people just take great pride in the fact that they cant read
>>220003437I agree with him.None of those films are korean though.
>>220005938Never had this issue, check your hearing or get a better sound system.
only americunts shitalians and ruskians are illiterate enough to not be bale to watch a film with subtitles
>>220006257you have korea derangement syndrome
it's not just americans, inferior cultures like russians and poles also only watch films and shows with shitty voiceover if they don't have an official dub (which happens often for TV shows and smaller-scale film releases like the lighthouse)
>>220007538pooland and russkians usually didnt even have access to the original non ADRed versions of the film, like the germans did, so they usually did the voiceover like a UN NATION translation with the original dialogue being heard under the dubbing
>>220005499NTA but the only problem with subtitles I have is control. I would like to have control on its size, font and synchronization whcih thankfully is feasible with online subtitles and media player features
>>220004041>>220004259This.My 95-year-old grandmother watched Emmerdale with subtitles, she didn't understand English.So, it baffles me how people in their prime struggle to read subtitles. It's always some pathetic excuse like "I'm too slow" or "I have dyslexia."If you want, you can. Truth is, people who can't bother to read subtitles are lazy and find excuses to justify their laziness.
>>220003437You could always watch the dub version
>>220003437If you knew how to read you wouldn't be browsing 4chan.
>>220007647my grandma who had alzheimer's could focus and read the subtitles while watching house MD and she had only finished elementary school
>>220004005You're a snide Jew who just spams buzzwords
>>220003437i literally only read subs if the film isnt dubbed. it distracts me from the cinematography. and if your audio is shit im not watching, nolan.
>>220004041>>220004259That's what reading is, you're retarded double digit IQ animals
>>220007710>it distracts me from the cinematography.worst excuse if I ever heard oneYou brain is able to process subsitltes and cinematography
>>220007700Your dad's the jew if he's an ad-loving retard.
>>220007926i read faster than they talk so im always looking up and down the screen. if it’s dubbed i’d rather watch that. its not too hard to believe. it sucks if you wanna watch an action or horror movie
don't even get me started on the quality of translations
If you have any real interested in foreign media, you should just learn the language instead of settling for a watered down, overly localised pile of vomit designed to fit into 2 lines of text.
>>220003437I used to leave subtitles on for everything but eventually realized I was indeed missing things visually by reading the subtitles. And it's small what I miss, milliseconds of content but still I was missing things and that started to bug me.
>>220008536yeah just become a polyglot real easy
>>220003847
>>220007722Never seen a negro read? They have to do it out loud and real slow like. People who can't handle subs are like that.
>>220003437Maybe you should so you wouldn't have aversion to reading
>start watching some English film>better put on subtitles just in case>spend my time raging at mistranslations or when translator tries to "improve" the scriptDoes this happen to anyone else?
>>220010137Many such cases
no english no watch
Its the only way my wife and I can watch pic related.
>>220011981costume slop
>(Speaking German)Why don't you just show what they are actually saying, lazy bastards.
>>220012018It's a high budget Tencent show with some kino shots here and there. I wouldn't give two shits if my wife wasn't interested.
>>220012197
>>220003488Your father is an idiot
>>220012780tell her to watch kdramas instead
>>220003582It's no worse than snowpiercer or okja
>>220006257Korean cinema is crap these days.Their renaissance of quality gritty crime movies only lasted about a decade, from the late 90s to the late 00s, and they've been putting out mostly garbage ever since.
>>220013030We did. Really liked True Beauty since she read the comic.
>>220013034yes he was a hack before he was a sellout
>>220003919When did that happen?
>>220013071>gritty crimegrow up, the real renaissance of Korean cinema were the melodramas of the 90s and early 2000s
>>220003437why would a filmmaker have this stupid opinion?no matter how small and no matter how fast you read without looking, subtitle always destroy the whole fucking pictureeven if it takes a split second of you conscience to get them its still a split second you give away where you could have enjoyed the cinematography, acting or scenery subs never feel natural, they always stand out and ruin every frame for me
>>220007710>it distracts me from the cinematography.And destroying half of the actors performance because of a shitty dub isn't distracting to you? the absolute state of dub retards
>>220003618Mickey 17 is just Moon but far worse in every way.
>>220003488>>220003437>Americans hate readingno way.
>>220013899why can't they read?
I've watched all 15+ Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman movies with subtitles because it wasn't available with dubs. I think it was worth it. Good movies.
>>220008627I've trained myself to ignore subtitles because of this, they're still nice to have as backup in case I miss something.
>>220015427try paying attention
>>220003437>if you can read subtitles you open yourself to so many more moviesNot if they're korean.
>>220012827>I am parenthetically speaking in JapaneseWhat did he mean by this
How would you watch high and low or world on a wire
>>220003437Well maybe you should open a book. Americans are the least intelligent people on this planet and every time you hear them talking about other countries you don't know whether you should cringe or cry.
I was more literate at like 8 years old than adult jewmuttians
>>220003437I use subtitles even for English speaking films because I can't understand the dialogue half the time.
>>220016045korea derangement syndrome
>>220003437>>220003488>>220003531How do illiterates manage to get on the internet?
>>220015987Does paying attention mean you can somehow decipher a new accent or an actor garbling his line? This is what happens when you spend too much time here, your brain automatically filters what you read through stereotypes.
>>220003437This nigga entire filmography is about how capitalism is bad but he keeps making movie to this day and work in the most capitalistic industry ever
>>220003437I pretty much only watch korean movies at this point. Modern american actors are embarassing
>>220019281And yet he participates in society, curious!
>>220003437my hearing is trash so I use subtitles with English language movies too
>>220007722>He can't tell the difference between passive and active readingYou're ngmi in this life anon might as well kys now
>>220019444Have you seen any Im Kwon-taek films?
>>220019444shouldn't that motivate you to learn the language?
