Movies you've recently watched

[Duque de Bragança]

I'm amazed so few here have seen Smurfahontas (a/k/a Avatar). 

Hard to see original version films here in Frankfurt Bloody Germans...

Is there a university in Smallville? Cause I'm fairly certain Clark was already in high school when it started.

University is over (Metropolis U).

[Admiral Yi]

Watchmen.  I thought it sucked.  Really boring.  The plot was draggy.  All the superhero philosophical monologues were boring.  The chick's thighs were too big for her outfit.  Enough with Billy Crudup's GGI rendered dong.

[Josquius]

Is this the one with Elijah Wood? I think I caught a bit of it on HBO once and it weirded me out. The guy reminded me of BB.

Yes.

Season 8 of Smallville. Such a cheesy show but it keeps drawing me in.

Ouch.
I want to watch it, I want to like it but....It just got so crap after a while. I lost the ability to watch it just after Braniac with those phantom people.

[Syt]

I don't feel the need to rush out to watch it again right away, though

Turns out a friend got tickets for a screening in English in IMAX, so I guess I'll have to see it again.

Two English languages theaters show it in 3D here in Vienna (though they phase it out now) and IMAX has it in English every couple days.

Why couldn't he still be in high school on the show?

Speaking of dubbed versions, I was surprised when I was in Brussels that so many movies were actually dubbed. In Poland, the standard is to have subtitles - only the really kid movies are dubbed, and even then you have about a 1:2 ratio of dubbed to subtitled movies.

Dubbed into French, Flemish or both?

French in most parts of the city, Flemish in the Flemish part of the city.

At least it was not Polish "dubbing".

Not surprising on the French part.  The French usually dub movies.

It could have something to do with linguistic politics.  French has delusions of importance and is very jealous of English, so they dub their movies.  And Flemish is a big deal for the Flems, so they follow suit.

Subtitles show off Polish pride.  After all, what other language could extract so many vowels and still retain some sort of barbaric meaning?

That's actually something that has always been encountered only on TV (at least in my memory)*. Movies have either been subtitled or properly dubbed.

*I assume you are referring to the practice of having one person read all the lines in Polish while there is the original soundtrack heard in the background.
