Do you perfer the English dub or English Subtitles?
This is just a poll. I don't care what you say.
Personally, I perfer the English dub. By not having to read subtitles, I can focus more on the film's visuals.
What about you?
I have not seen the dubbed version because I was listening to Michelle Yeoh's voice. Personally, I think the actors original voices make things so much better, the nuances that go with the facial expressions.
Of course, at the moment, my DVD player decided to take a dive, so I couldn't watch the dub if I wanted to...
I prefer English Subtitles. I like watching movies in the language they were filmed in. its so much better. Plus, dubbing usually sucks, and it looks retarded when characters mouths move differently then what they are actually saying. Even though you do miss things once in a while, hearing the characters voices in the language it was filmed in is just so much better.

ACK DUBS DUBS DUBS!!!
i REFUSE to watch CTHD, HERO or house of flying daggers for example in dubs.. (well, dont know if HOFD does.... but if it did i wouldnt!!!)
It really just puts me off and personally i prefer to listen to mandarin... such a beautiful language which i hope to learn soon. And when you watch the movies enough times you dont even need the subtitles :)
I have watched movies with subtitles my entire life, so I don't mind them. Once you get the hang of it, you hardly notice them. And also dubbes movies are rarely done nicely, so I usually switch to subtitles, even if the dub is a language I understand
shareNormally I'd agree, but the subtitles in this movie are unreadable most of the time. They're yellow subtitles in front of what is usually either sand or light-colored clothing. Only in the nighttime scenes can you actually make out anything without getting a headache. Apparently, some people don't know the meaning of "adequate contrast". I'd like to find a dubbed version; maybe then I could figure out what they're saying.
I'd also like to note that dubs only appear "retarded" in movies like this. If the movie was originally in a language that's reasonably close to English, it's not even noticeable (I've seen a few Italian movies like that).
if you watch it on your computer, change it to closed captions instead. they're MUCh easier to read! oh, and i prefer subtitles. otherwise it's almost comical. you know, the actor's mouth moves hundreds of time, but all they're saying is hello? please!

Cyclops: Prove it.
Wolverine: You're a dick.
Cyclops: Ok.

<<<Personally, I think the actors original voices make things so much better, <<<the nuances that go with the facial expressions In the majority of cases, you are NOT hearing the voices of the original actors in Asian movies, either. Until VERY VERY VERY recently, MOST Asian movies were recorded in a way where DIFFERNT Asian actors than you see on the screen recorded the dialogue of the characters you see on the screen. so in the majority of cases, even the original movie in its original version is dubbed.
