CatBus, thanks for your support!

I've started this project because there are other users who are interested in literal subtitles...

Is it a well known fact that Star Wars characters' names are sometimes changed in other languages dub, and italian is not different... I KNOW that they are wrong now, buy as I was grown up with those names, it's fun to hear them and read them in the literal subtitles... call it "nostalgia"! (^^,)

Let's see some differences between english and italian subtitles - which one is the literal, and which one is not? (only ONE character's name was changed, to not discover which one is literal)
