In fact, one of my preferred ways of practicing my knowledge of languages I don't speak very well, is to watch a movie or show in English, for which I don't need subtitles, with subtitles in said language. I've never noticed that it made me fail to notice anything on the screen - it's perfectly possible to watch the show as one normally would AND at the same time try and figure out the subtitles, though of course if you want to understand every word in the subtitles you'll have to hit the pause button rather a lot, since one needs a certain fluency in a language to read and understand subtitles as fast as they appear and disappear.
Huh, I'd do the opposite: see a show in that language with subtitles in a language I know.

Yes, but you see, the languages I'm trying to learn aren't that mainstream.

I don't watch anime much, but generally speaking: of course dubbing isn't always bad

I prefer subtitles because they tend to stay as close to the original artistic intent as possible

I've never had my enjoyment impaired by either, so I consider them equal. *NM*
