Hahah I've been meaning to, I'm morbidly curious beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 23/01/2011 07:03:05 AM
Have you seen the live action Death Note movie? The dubbing for that is horrendous. It sounded like they got Michael Clarke Duncan for the voice of Light.



There's something about live-action movies of anime that just fills me with skepticism... but I guess it could be good.

But yeah, like I said in my response to Stephen- dubbing in live-action is MUCH harder than in animation. A person's face is infinitely more detailed than a cartoon, and you can intuitively tell when someone's dialogue doesn't match their lips.
I amuse myself.

I can't agree that reading subtitles distracts you from what's going on. Legolas - 22/01/2011 12:25:01 PM 529 Views

Yes, but you see, the languages I'm trying to learn aren't that mainstream. Legolas - 23/01/2011 10:24:02 AM 468 Views
That is the major problem with subs, isn't it? Darth_Katie - 22/01/2011 02:29:24 PM 495 Views
I don't watch anime much, but generally speaking: of course dubbing isn't always bad ironclad - 22/01/2011 03:42:07 PM 509 Views

It seems to come down to quality, doesn't it? beetnemesis - 23/01/2011 06:55:41 AM 626 Views
I prefer subtitles because they tend to stay as close to the original artistic intent as possible ßelals Girl - 22/01/2011 07:42:37 PM 483 Views
