When Engrish goes bad.

It's a direct english translation of a chinese interpretation of the script. Needless to say, it isn't very accurate, at all.

Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabris, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam.

i found it funny that they used west as the translation of sith at the begining then used big as the translation later.

God that's hilarious XD they all sound like either gollum or yoda... my favorite, though, was Threepio's "Kiss too loudly" XD

"He is in my behind!"
"They want to know him at fuck"
"I was just made by the Presbyterian Church!"
"Mr. Speaker, we are for the big."

This is the funniest stuff since "scruffy-looking nerf-herder"!

There is no lingerie in space…

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I was reading that at work and burst out laughing. Hilarious!!
I remember I saw the cover of a chinese bootleg of Harry Potter and the text on the back explained how Harry lived a miserable life in a cupboard at the hands of his horrible aunt and uncle and it went something like this:

Harry Potter, the boy who was. His life in the door under the stairs: Miserable, chilly, simply.

War does not make one great.

Bizarre...
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

We need someone to get hold of this copy and rip the subtitle stream for us...

Can't be any worse than the Engrish translations of 'Spirited Away,' or 'Crouching Tiger.'

My wife saw 'Crouching Tiger' with a Chinese friend at a film festival premiere, and her friend laughed the whole way through because the subtitles were no where near the Mandarin dialogue.

It goes both ways I guess.

Have the full subs turned up anywhere yet? I'd love to add these in to my Sith DVD when it's released.

Let's change MTFBWY to TWPATWY ("The wish power are together with you") Classic!
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...
