It boggled my mind. Particularly since I saw "Road Warrior" before I watched "Mad Max." I'd be more inclineed to dubb a heavy Cockney accent from the UK than I would an Aussie accent...<br /><br />Like you, I'm subtitles all they way man...well, except for Ultraman...the dubbing works there for me. ;-)Deacon Bluehttp://holyhell.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415178.post-3151737203008195912009-06-12T09:16:44.312-04:002009-06-12T09:16:44.312-04:00I didn't mention that there are dubbed and sub...I didn't mention that there are dubbed and subbed versions because I'm one of those folks who goes straight for the subtitles. I prefer to see performaces in their native language so you can see what the actors were going for, as opposed to the often terrible voice-overs provided by American distributors. And have you ever seen the dubbed version of MAD MAX? Why it was deemed necessary to dub a film already in English is beyond me, but did they have to include as one of the dubbers the guy why voiced Racer X on the old SPRRED RACER cartoon? That voice took me right out of the film.Bunche (pop culture ronin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11831085937894725459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7415178.post-37113991652055436062009-06-12T01:41:36.607-04:002009-06-12T01:41:36.607-04:00I've been hearing fantastic things about this ...I've been hearing fantastic things about this movie, but I've also heard that you need to view the subtitled version and not the dubbed one to truly enjoy how good it is. I get the impression that the dubbing is both terrible and distracting.<br /><br />That's the only thing that's held me back from seeing it, because I think the verion on the Instant Watch option in Netflix is dubbed, which is how I had planned to view it until people warned me off that version.Deacon Bluehttp://holyhell.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
