The Backstroke Of The West (Sith subtitle silliness) |
|
Sorry if this has been posted already, I did a quick search and couldn't find it. If you want Revenge Of The Sith to be hilarious instead of tedious (sorry, prequel fans ), check out this funny, funny page.
In short: it's Sith, with subtitles that have been translated into Chinese and back into English without, apparently, any reference to the original. The truest example of "Chinese whispers" I've ever seen. |

Crazy, isn't it? I so wish I had that copy of the film.
My favourite is "You are a sacrifice article that I cut up rough now" - gangsta! Oh, how I would love to hear Christopher Lee say that line... |

That's really funny, I can't believe what has gone on in the minds of the translators! They have probably translated those straight from the chinese versions without thinking the result at all. _________________ Lead musician of Ultima IX Redemption
