#mixed up subtitles

[uwudonoodle]

My partner went to watch the new episode of Tower of God on Crunchyroll today, and found the subtitles had been mixed up with either a different episode or show.

This big tough bad guy seemed to be arrogantly monologing before starting a fight with the protagonists. He was also very concerned about his love life.

These two, standing off to the side, weapons in hand, had a heartfelt conversation about romantic girls who wear red dresses.

This guy was very concerned about his manicure after blowing up a mountainside with a fireball.

Do you have anymore drawings that we haven’t seen of Cain absolutely fucking up Rire? Idk about you but there’s something about Rire being put in his place by Cain that really makes makes my heart quiver 💥💳💥💳💥💳💥💳💥

I drew this to a Vengaboys compilation mix

[fiercestcorpse]

still absolutely baffled by the fact that when the untamed got popular on here you had people posting stuff like "i know it seems kind of weird and confusing for the first couple of episodes but don't worry, it picks up after that" like what the hell are you talking about. i loved the first couple of episodes. i was having the time of my life right from the opening monologue and it only got better from there.

Did Suk finally make enough money from subscriptions to hire a real translator? The subtitle quality is much improved, and actually got better for the free release.

Early release subs (top) vs regular release subs (bottom)

I had figured out what a job study group was, given the context of the episode, but a job search study group is a lot clearer.

The overall sentiment is similar, but I like flirty-eye smiles more because I totally see it.

Again, the overall meaning is the same, but the 2nd sub provides more detail and is more grammatically correct.

The 2nd subber even threw in some slang lol.

This was the only sub that was completely different from each other. The Chinese sub has it as "Did anyone try to seduce you?", which is closer to the early release sub. The first sub also makes more sense considering that Nami says he trusts Jaemin after. Any thoughts @vickyawesome99?

official yuzuha family introduction ^w^

[whysopasta]

watching skinamarink on shudder and the delay between the subtitles and video is so bad that it keeps spoiling every scare and creepy thing full seconds in advance but this movie is too damn quiet to understand half the dialogue without without them :/

[doushiteworld]

New song is a DECO*27 collab!! Meaning it's on DECO*27's channel and not PinocchioP's! It's a banger! Wahhhhh

[queenerdloser]

i finally watched nope (on my plane ride home lol... sorry 2 my seat mate) and my god!!!!! i dont know what it is about jordan peele specifically but he really does make horror movies that are Perfect For Me as in they are just the right combination of scary shit to social commentary to humor to beautiful cinematography. i think i might like nope more than get out? which is saying something bc that remains one of my favorite films (let alone horror films!). i still havent watched us yet bc to be frank it looked scarier and i am still a baby about horror in that i can handle some but if it gets too creepy i cant do it. but i yearn to watch it bc i really like how peele tells stories. 

[fragglez]

just watched avatar 2 it was gorgeous, the movie itself tho...... yeesh

[thesilvercondor-main]

seconding this purely because i once watched a series with two romance plots going on in the background

one of the plots was about two servants in the royal palace's kitchens, who were like. obviously in love with eachother. but trying to hide it because professionally the servants aren't meant to date eachother or something? and they just got worse and worse at hiding it over time as they fell more in love. and i thought that was really cute.

the other plot was about a married couple who didn't really have a role in the story other than being friends with one of the palace's servants. and they were just trying to navigate married life while trying to set up their own business and buy a house together and stuff like that. become independent enough to leave their main jobs. i never really understood why they were in the story.

...turns out, its because the two couples above were actually THE SAME COUPLE and i NEVER FREAKING NOTICED

asdfghjkl anyway yeah brown-haired white-person identification systems would be great

i would like to propose a new accessibility feature for movies where every time a brown-haired white man comes on screen they tell me which one he is

[ohh-fiddlesticks]

how is he even real

[sheila--e]

before actually watching v.a i thought that the starfish on abbas head was a kippah.

[troglobite]

me, sobbing loudly, vision completely obscured by tears, watching the credits on the final ep of fellow travelers: oh my god look the intimacy coordinators and dialect coaches! you guys did incredible work! [more active sobbing, voice completely wobbling and weak]

[hedge-rambles]

Aye, especially your point about scripted media, like, girls, please you've already got it all written down. No one needs to transcribe it, it's a copy paste job for the actual text component of the subtitle dialogue.

I, a hearing person who likes subtitles just as a preference, shouldn't have to read a subtitle that's obvious nonsense, go back a couple seconds, and listen again in order to figure out what's going on. An accessibility feature should not be the most half-assed part of a professionally made production. Scripted media has absolutely no excuse for not having subtitles or having subtitles that aren't perfectly verbatim. Professional captioning services should be ashamed of the shoddy work that they put out. Captions should be treated as a part of the production, just like filming, editing, audio balancing, etc - and anything that releases with missing or bad captions should be seen as unfinished

//Unrelated but if you are wondering, when I write ooc and I say things like 'dear' or 'uuhhh' or stuff like that it's literally because Emma says it. It's not like 'oh she talks like that and so she makes her character talks like her', I'm Italian. And I end up absorbing the linguistic choices that I'm reading/hearing the most, it keeps changing, but because I make Emma talk like that I end up "talking" like that too (kinda like having a friend who keeps saying 'dude' and then you end up going 'dude-ah crap' because it got into your head)

which not only makes my English worse but then it makes Emma's English worse because those are the words I get fixated on, I forget the others, and it just. keeps getting worse.

Here’s a bunch of junk for you trans girls to watch

Update: there used to be a link to a mega folder here, but it got taken down.

///TGIRL FEATURE FILMS (alphabetical order)

Adam (2019) it's about a cis boy who's mistaken for a trans boy and rolls with it. Big cast of trans characters including a tgirl played by a tgirl who everyone wants to fuck. Directed by a trans dude. Highly legit. If you're still hung up on pre release speculation based on the novel then you're the most annoying person alive.

Assassination Nation (2018) The first half is Euphoria and the second half is The Purge. ONE OF THE BEST TGIRL MOVIES OF ALL TIME.

Bit (2019) Lesbian girl power vampire movie where the main character is a tgirl played by a tgirl. It's solid. I find it frustrating that they hint at her being trans without explicitly acknowledging it (and she's passing as fuck, so it's easy to not notice), but I know that's what some of y'all want.

Boy Meets Girl (2014) Cis dude for trans girl love story. Pretty normie, but also you see her fully naked (gock out) at the end.

Funeral Parade of Roses (1969) Extremely 60s. Cool as hell.

Lady Daddy (2010) South Korean romcom about a trans girl played by a cis girl who tries unconvincingly to back pass when she finds out she has a kid. Very cute.

Lingua Franca (2019) written directed and starring Isabel Sandoval. An undocumented trans woman immigrant in New York deals with a cis dude partner being a cis dude. Which is also the plot of The Garden Left Behind (2019).

Myra Breckinridge (1970) Raquel Welch is a trans woman and her goal is the destruction of the last vestigial traces of traditional manhood! It's Fight Club! It's Hackers! It's divisive, but it's probably my favorite movie!

So Pretty (2019) Literally the first scripted feature length (non pornographic tho it does have cock) film to feature two trans women played by trans women kissing eachother.

Something Must Break (2014) THE OTHER BEST TGIRL MOVIE OF ALL TIME. Drugs. Crimes. Gock. Slow motion pissing. Slow motion park Fucking. Genuinely the most beautiful sex scene I've seen in any movie. And she makes it to the end still alive and more sure of herself and at peace than ever.

Tangerine (2015) Groundbreaking and also a bunch of the secondary characters are real life pornstars (which I think is neat).

The Garden Left Behind (2019) This and Lingua Franca (2019) really are tgirl twin films, but (like with Antz and A Bug’s Life) the vibes and details make them distinct (I assume tho tbh I’ve never watched Antz).

///TGIRL DOCUMENTARIES

Bambi (2013) about a trans girl showgirl in 50s/60s paris

Paris is Burning (1990) basically it's Pose.

Shinjuku Boys (1995) Trans dudes working in a tokyo club that caters to tboy chasing cis girls. There's at least one trans girl in the mix too.

///FORCED FEMINIZATION

A Reflection of Fear (1972) They raised her as a girl and it made her do murders! It drags in places, but the girl in it is so ethereal and it has ageplay vibes and daddy issues.

Memory Run (1996) A very fun direct to video scifi action flick about fighting fascism by blowing up your pre transition self with a rocket launcher + it's based on a novel written by a trans woman.

She-Man A Story of Fixation (1967) Notable for being such a cliche sissy maid fantasy while also coming out so early + it was Bob Clark's first film lol.

Sleepaway Camp (1983) A more famous version of Reflection of Fear.

Surrender Dorothy (1998) A MUST WATCH. I personally bought a physical DVD and made an ISO of it for you because I was unsatisfied with the quality of the only copy that seemed to exist online. I ALSO PERSONALLY CREATED MY OWN SUBTITLES FOR IT BECAUSE EVEN THE DVD DIDN’T INCLUDE ANY! WHICH TOOK HOURS TO DO!

The Skin I Live In (2011) A rapist is kidnapped and turned into a girl by a mournful vengeful plastic surgeon. Which was also the plot of Victim (2010). I never really vibe with Pedro Almodóvar movies, but I recognize this is the preeminent forced feminization film.

///SHORT FILMS

Gender Troublemakers (1993) Some 90s Toronto trans girls fucking and discoursing. Explicit tgirl on tgirl action. This is the only one on the list that I haven’t actually watched yet. I’m hyped to watch it tho. Seems mindblowingly rad af.

Happy Birthday Marsha (2018) It's about Marsha P. Johnson.

I don't Know (1971) I'm obsessed with the trans girl in this one she just keeps popping up in all kinds of early 70s stuff. Directed by Penelope Spheeris (who is the sister of the cis gf in it).

Mesmeralda (2019) AN ABSOLUTE BANGER HOLY FUCK THE VIBES ARE OFF THE CHARTS! PLS WATCH THIS! I refuse to apologize for it being 15GB. It’s worth every byte.

Pat Rocco's Changes (1970) It's that same girl again!

Queens at Heart (1967) I can't get over that hairdresser girl thinking she's back passing. Most adorably weak boymode ever.

Shangri-La (2021) Another Isabel Sandoval joint.

The Yellow Wallpaper (2021) Freshly post op girl with a supportive boyfriend goes unhinged.

Undress Me (2012) Jana Bringlöv Ekspong did a few short films. Give janabringlove a google after watching this.

///JUST LIKE BTW

Some of these would be tough to find elsewhere, but most of the movies are also watchable on fmovies and/or can be torrented in higher quality.

After you've worked your way through the folder then just start doing Google searches for trans films. Look at IMDB keywords and letterboxd lists. There are so many more out there. These are just like my personal picks.
