    Smaller population, basically.

    As for the original topic question, dignity and integrity.

    Read a book ffs.

    Strain your brain? No it's pretty simple.....

    One enjoys the visuals of a movie better when they aren't reading the motherfucker.
    You are the one that said yours were heaps better. You were practically asking for it.

    But disregarding that, subtitles, like anything else that requires thinking is a matter of practice, had you grown up with it you wouldn't even notice them by now ('cept when they get it wrong), besides, it's more or less proven that natives in nations that use subtitles instead of dubbing, or remakes, have an easier time learning new languages.

    No one ever accused hollywood of making an effort to expand peoples' minds though.


    Everyone but small kids prefer subtitles, here.

    'cos it doesn't fuck the movie up.

    Doesn't matter.

    Reading words on a screen takes away from on screen visuals.

    The average moviegoer can read just fine but if I'm watching visually intensive movie, it fucks it up.

    I noticed this recently with the original Spanish version of Vanilla Sky....I like the original better but still hated the subtitles...even though it was barely noticed.

    Plenty of people do when faced with the options.

    1. Subtitles.

    2. Dubbing.

    3. Poorly made remake.

    4. Learn the language of the film.


    If a film is good then the fact that it is subtitled has no bearing on my enjoyment of it, to me subtitles is the best way of presenting a good film to a foreign audience. Seems to be you're a little closed minded.


    On-topic: Open-mindedness.

    The rest of the world has been beaten up pretty badly by two world wars, Britain had a thriving movie industry before World War Two.
