~ My Tv has the caption already set on it, so I didn't put the DVD subtitles.
The Tv captioning was almost dead-on.
I don't understand the DVD screw-job.

Zydrate comes in a little glass vial
And the little glass vial goes into the gun like a battery...



People on the Repo! board get SOOO angry at the subtitles. The person who made them was probably just writing what they heard instead of following a script or something. I love watching the subtitles and laughing at the silly lines.

I love "Penile tissue inch by inch".

...And the Zydrate gun goes somewhere against your anatomy
And when the gun goes off it SPARKS and you're ready for surgery.

I can see someone being justifiably angry if they're hard of hearing or have difficulty understanding the words. But for fans who already know all the lyrics? It's almost like a bonus. Now we've got all kinds of new in-jokes.

I really don't understand how these mistakes could have been made, though. It seems like it would have been simple enough to double-check these things. All they have to do is take a moment to think "Hmmm, does that line make any sense at all? Nope. I wonder why." Obviously they didn't.

But like I said. Bonus.

Masquerade! Paper faces on parade. Masquerade!


How much do you want to bet LGF paid the subtitle people to do it on purpose? I mean, how can you seriously mistake "Graves" for "Rob"? stare Even a person from the depths of the Congo would be able to make out the difference!

I have no idea why they'd mess something like that up... Maybe they changed some of the lyrics in the actual movie when so many subplots were cut out?

like blame not my cheeks !

How do you mean? They only recorded the part of Blame Not My Cheeks that we hear in the movie so they planned it that way. It wasn't cut.
