I’m talking about like subtitles…
So my mom want me to “do something” to fix my depression… so I say okay let’s see a movie then…
But she sucks at English comprehension and my dad barely understand a word…
We’re in the US… (Philly area)
They need Chinese subtitles…
So this is just a situation that you can’t fix? Shit outta luck?


I agree most of the time, but there is at least one notable exception.
MXC
What’s up Tiger Lily
even Airplane! in a way (although also reshot, not just dubbed)
Etc.
Yes, technically these are dubbed, but it’s really an entirely new piece of art. I think Shin Chan sits right at the edge.
