That's what usually happens in films when there is a foreign language spoken. New subtitles: but in the language of the country it's being show in.

I know that. But the Greedo subtitles are different... they aren't really subtitles in the traditional sense - they are a part of the original film because of the segment of speach in an imaginary alien language that no viewer could possibly know. The Swedish 16mm film I digitized had Swedish subtitles that ran through the entire film, but during the Greedo scene they sat on top of (in addition to) the original English Greedo subtitles. They didn't replace the English Greedo subtitles with Swedish ones.

So I repeat my question - in the case of the Greedo subtitles, what displayed in non-English-speaking theaters? Does anyone know for sure?
