I forget if I've posted this before?  (these are actual English subtitles from the Chinese language version of the movies)

LOL

BAHAHA, for such a big movie, you'd think they would have better subtitles? I'm guessing that isn't the official WB ones. Oh dear, the melon and the swearing! But the best is 'Professor Mike' for McGonagoll.

I had forgotten melons were so prevalent in the movie version.

Those are some of my favorite subtitles!

I have been known to torment stbx with Monty Python's "Quest for the Holy Grail" set on the subtitles that have been translated into Japanese and then back into English. He never truly understood me and my humor

My dh hates subtitles, and will spend a movie telling me were all the mistakes are. I have to shush him.

At least they tried!

In the pirate DVD trade, they sometimes just pull the subtitles from another film. We were once watching a romantic comedy and the subtitles were saying something like, "Arm the torpedo bays!" "We're hit!" "Captain! We're going down!"

(But my favorite is when they have to mock up cover art for the case. Sometimes they can't tell a good review from a bad one, so the text they pull off the internet review site says something like "This film is the single best reason to avoid anything directed by so-and-so!")
