Don't say there was no warning

"A really bad soap opera ... ". One more example for the refreshingly transparent cover information on pirated DVD's in China.

Haha... I wonder if they have random subtitles on that one, too.

Man sollte sich die Kommentare auf der Rückseite sparen und einfach den Film geniessen... oder?

@ inferno artist:
Has anyone done research on these "random subtitles"? My theory is: They are machine re-translations of the Chinese subtitels, which are already awfully bad, except in the case officially imported movies and movies dubbed for HK or Taiwan.

You're probably right, but I remember one couple who bought House of Flying Daggers and I had a look and felt 'something's weird' and then a minute later the line 'I pledge allegiance to the President of the United States' appeared... Awesome.

@ inferno artist:
Yes, that's another variety: subtitles from a different film. I have some examples too. A nice, kafkaesque experience, but only for a few moments. Then: anger.

So now I wonder what came first: this DVD cover or the one-star review here (scroll down to the end).
