Can’t even _read_ the books. 😃 Jes’ kiddin’; Dr. LindyHopper has been known to show the odd film or two in her history classes. Whatcha watchin’? ---

Book? Whatchu talkin’ 'bout, Willis? _El Mariachi_ is the film. And if I recall correctly I’ve already seen it. I dunno if I’m even going to go. I can watch it at a more convenient time for me (like, say, not now). ---

OK, is this a film class? Because _El Mariachi_’s not even in English. It’s in Spanish with English subtitles. Good flick, though. Best $5000 ever spent on making a movie. [sub]You know, if we hijack this thread far enough, maybe Lynn, Alpha, or John will close it![/sub] ---

The IMBD says it was $7K, just FTR. My Film teacher agreed with that. Subtitles are annoying, but even more annoying is bad dubbing. That’s one reason I didn’t really get into _Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon_. ---

$5K, $7K, what’s the difference. 🙂 Damn fine bit of ultra-low-budget moviemaking. And actually, I _like_ subtitles. If they’re done skillfully enough (no white letters on a white background), I stop consciously noticing them after 15 minutes or so. Bad dubbing is indeed annoying, but didn’t _CT, HD_ have subtitles? Or am I totally misremembering? [sub]Gosh, this is fun! And good for the ol’ post count![/sub] ---

It did indeed have subtitles. The problem is that though the acting may have been superb, I couldn’t tell because I didn’t know when the characters were saying various things. It’s like . . . the way the text was presented and the way they were saying it, I have to think sometimes I saw ABC and it was BCA. That’s one reason I didn’t like it. Make sense?🙂 ---

That’s one reason I didn’t like it. > > Make sense?🙂 \*\* Um… Actually, I’m not quite sure what you’re saying here. I mean, since Chinese and English have really nothing in common, I can understand how the dialogue and subtitles would sometimes get sort of out of sync…is that what you mean? I’m not sure what your ABC/BCA comment means. FWIW, I don’t usually watch movies with an eye toward their cinematic greatness; that is to say, I’m rarely really paying attention to innovative technique or filmmaking style (Hitchcock being a notable exception). Plus, if the movie is in a foreign language with which I’m not familiar, I really have no reference point for whether the acting is good or not. Eh…personal preference, I guess. Oh, and **Jack**? :p:p:p Has anyone else noticed that **da’ cook** hasn’t been back to this thread? Must be way past his/her bedtime. 🙂 [sub]You’re right, **Jack** ; it’s like kicking a puppy.
