Well, fuck.

I have a screener copy, too, but I bought a DVD to support the film. That's.. annoying.

Aaaaargh! Geez, now they're dumbing down DVD releases! Bloody hell, that's ridiculous.

Hopefully the Aussie release is authentic, otherwise I'll be buying a European copy.

I heard the blu ray edition suffers from the same mis-translation. F.uck me in the goat a.ss.

If this isn't daring film fans to download a proper version, I don't know what is.

Jeezus, using their logic, this:

Pathetic.

I almost bought a copy, too. I'll see if my DVD player can handle the European format and try to get a copy elsewhere.

Frickin' idiots.

Apparently MAGNET is going to revert a new batch of disks BACK to the theatrical subtitles...

Nice. I'm glad I didn't purchase it yet.

Screw you, Cortes!

Now I have to see if I can return the one I have. I'm really glad they're fixing the problem, at least superficially.

I rarely come onto this forum for anything other then drawing..

Give us details. US version, foreign version. In store, online etc.

My friend found a download a few months ago.
I have no idea what it is, or what the source was.

Krisvahl, I totally agree with your ideas about Eli having done this before.
We could be watching the same thing the old man went thru when he was Oskars age.
