subtitle twists
so the other night i was watching ocean's eleven for the billionth time (what can i say, the funky disco music pulls me in again and again....) and i dedided for kicks to put on the subtitles in french. i know like, two words in french, so i was basically not getting anything. BUT i did notice one amusing thing.
if you know the movie...there's a part where george clooney and brad pitt are collecting their team. they are considering the electronics guy, and show a scene where he is in a surveillance van with some FBI dudes. when he tries to get them to stop playing with buttons, they tell him something like "hey radio shack, chill out!" ....the french subtitles exchanged "radio shack" for "mcgyver"!
i just thought that was funny. :)
