"What's in the box!?!"

This sort of thing annoys me because translations are such a tricky business... there is no question that Ingrid Eng's subtitles are the superior version, did they just not want to pay royalties to her or something?

I think that it is also odd that the Blu-ray would default to the English dubbed track... I have to say that while these subtitles are not as good as the others, they are better than what I heard of the dub job. Yech.

I will have more to say about Let the Right One In shortly.¹ I don't know if it really does qualify as the best vampire movie ever, as the jacket copy proudly states, but it's up there.
Never having worked at a supermarket, I don't really understand their internal politics. Hopefully, a supermarket veteran could explain to me why they would put their slowest cashier on the express lane? I mean, just from a common sense perspective, isn't that the job you give to the guy with the coke problem?

You Are An INTP



The Thinker

You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can.

Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge.

Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat.

A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it.

In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But you're not an easy person to stay in love with.

Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative.

At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems.

You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor.

How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded

When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic

What's Your Personality Type?
