Terminator Universe...

Looks like a part of me is really stuck in it :D I made these for [livejournal.com profile] allaire and myself just because.

hehe please, nothing against a mullet, I love MacGyver's (see icon) so I have nothing against the slight one from Kyle. It just was the TIME for it in the eighties! People around me had them as well, so did I ;)

I can't stand subtitles either. I go for dubbed with DVDs when I watch something for the first time. Then I change to english. When I only have the english original, I only use the subtitles to get quotes right, even though I often realize, the subtitles are not identical with the exact words they are saying! I often walk around my house with my wireless headphones on, only LISTENING to the movie. That's a perfect way to learn a language, imo :D

Subtitles are *never* faithful to what's actually being said. My friends and I watch everything with the subtitles on (because some of us are stone-deaf in addition to blinder then a one-eyed bat..) and we laugh at the differences. They also make me miss what's going on because I'm reading, not looking for details.

I need Wireless headphones :( They're on my list of things to buy after I save up a few thousand dollars for grad school in Australia.

That's the same for me with the subtitles. When I have them on, I so get distracted from what's going on on screen. I really mostly use them when I need a quote and I compare what's being said, with the subtitles...

One can get cheep wireless headphones overhere. Sorry to hear they are so expensive overthere!

Oh, they're not expensive, I'm just putting everything I can in savings for school.
