like one u have to read subtitels cause they r talking in differnt laugnes and shit i havent but i accidenty rented a marlin brando movie that was like sumthing in paris but i returend it quickly

I saw Vanilla Sky, the Original one... t'was in French...

I saw "The Pillow Book" with ewan McGregor (japanese with english subtitles).... yeah.. he gets naked

omg..........i watch indian movies..........they send tons of them down here so i watch one every now and then. So watching a movie with sub titles is second nature to me.

hmmmm "Life is Beautiful" was wonderful..............i saw the dubbed over one and it just wasn't the same. i rather read the meaning than not hear the actors tone and emotion in their voice

I saw Taxi

I saw 400 Blows. That was pretty good

tons

Hehehehe almost all the movies I see are foreign

Been watching foreign films for years...have no problem with subtitles.

I especially like the Asian films, like Andy Lau's "Full Time Killer" the Thai film "Bangkok Dangerous" and Takashi Miike's lurid Audition. And IFC and Bravo have loads of subbed films at any time.

AND I also have every Japanese Godzilla film from 1954 to the new MechaGodzilla X subbbed in English. My pride and joy! Foreign films rock!

The original is spanish.
Pretty much all the movies I watch are foreign. Since english is not my native tongue. But last 1 I saw that wasnt english was Amelie (french) its pretty good.

i saw La Haine, its french, great cinematography
its black and white too (i think)

i d/ld Irrerversible, but it had no subtitles cant find it at my local rental shop

well i watch a lot of foreign movie coz english is not my native tongue.. i watch chinese,japanese,french,korean .. you just name it i watch it as long it's a good movie.. i just saw 'a tale of two sisters' - korean and it's suck big time!! proclaim to be among the scariest horror movie in korea and next on the list is a latest chinese movie ' warriors of heaven and earth ' - chinese and i saw their trailer and it's awesome dude!!

as long it's have subtitles it's good for me...

cheers mate!!

Speaking of foreign films, are any of you here familiar with the
"The Venoms"?

The Venoms were a 5 man team of VERY talented actors who starred together in almost 20 martial art films created by the legendary Shaw Brothers studios in Hong Kong, and their initial hit was The 5 Deadly Venoms" aka "Pick Your Poison." I recently got the subtitled DVD and it is FAR superior to the dubbed release I bought a few years back!

Anyhow, any of you in the Asian districts must have heard of the Shaws and their great films they released in the golden age of martial arts.

And the 5 men who played the Venoms were

Kuo Chui-The Lizard
(Kwo Choy in Cantonese)-the most known of them all.

Sun Shien-The Scorpion
Wei Pai (Wei Pak in Cantonese) who played The Snake
Lu Feng-The Centipede
and Lo Mang-The Toad

There was also Chiang Sheng, the youngest Venom,who died like 12 or 13 years ago-drank himself to death. Such wasted talent But anyone who is into foreign films, definitely get the subbed versions of the Shaw Brothers martial art films. They rock!

I have seen a few...it makes a change after a while.

Some of my faves are :-

Pusher
The Eye
Delicattesen..(I can never spell that word correctly)
Amelie

has anyone seen Ichi The Killer? (i havent)

2 good 1s
City of Lost Children
Le Fem Nikita
both french

Ive seen quite afew...

but the ones that come to mine are the ring (japanese version) and Crimson River (the undubbed version...I cant stand to watch dubbed films.)

ah well, ive seen the original ring, wait a min ive seen loads of foriegn films late night on C4

i watch a lot of them..since my native language is also not english, i watch forgein films...in my language
inian films as well..oh man, ive seen so many of them...latest one ive seen is Kuch Naa Kaho which means 'Dont say a word' in Indian..i think...it was nice...and it had translation too...

like water for chocolate...thats a Mexican film...AMAZING!
Goodbye Lenin, in german
erm...cant think anymore, but ive seen a lot of forgein movies!

ooo, I saw 'The Pillow Book'.. hehe... it was strange, like watching a porn movie, without the guilt... lol...

almost every movie is a foreign movie for me

A korean film I saw called "Tell me something" I found it really good. Tis a murder mystery http://www.filmmonthly.com/Video/Articles/TellMeSomething/TellMeSomething.html

LoL Candy, thats very true about the pillowbook. I dont even feel guilty for seeing McGregors stuffz O_o

Lol, You liked it really

This one seems interesting. I wanna see it.

it aint too bad kes

anywayz I watch foreign movies all the time
tho I DISLIKE ASIAN HORROR MOVIES, they tend to dwell on stuff noone understands anywayz

Good Bye Lenin is really great, Kes...

Basically, almost every movie is foreign...but we have some good French movies (yeah !!! )

Last were Chocolat, Mystic River (I didn't look at the subtitles during half of the film *proud *...the other half is just because of my habits and laziness ), Ken Park, Identity..

Other languages: Good Bye Lenin (German), Ring (Japanese), ....
Indeed it is !

yeah, and in french AND without subtitles

lol I never look at the subtitles if the movie is english.

I try to get rid of that habit

Kes< Go see Goodbye Lenin, its a nice film, i liked it
and do go and see 'like Water for Chocolate' its such a great movie...

Yes, I've seen many, most of them suck and are artsy pretentious works....the good ones I've seen are....


Life is Beautiful
Irreversible
Amelie
28 Day's Later
Dog soldiers (england is another country)
Man Bites Dog
Cannibal Holocaust
And many other horror movies.

well every film that ive seen that wasnt from england is foreign to me then

same to me, not latin is foreign... but i like Amenabar, he directed three film, one is "tho others" witch everyone knows, and the other films are: "abre los ojos" the original version of "vanilla sky" and "tesis", wich is just greate... u should see it

Life is Beautiful
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Amelie
The Ring

and Run Lola Run

crouching tiger hidden dragon, saw dubbed and subtitled (liked subtitled one better)

and spirited away although i havnt seen the subtitled one yet-it is one of the best movies ive ever seen, especially coz im an anime fan.

amilie
ring, jap. version
audition, resently voted 3rd most grafic film ever!!!it rocks
a wierd one about a robot that goes around minceing (sp) people but cant remember what it was called

shock me shock me.. so you watch hindi movie.. well i not a big fan of hindi movie and i also not a indian guy... but once in awhile i do watch if it's a top movie.. the last that i saw was 'bhoot' coz it's proclaim to be a scariest hindi movie in india and i watch and i didn't like it and also it's didn't scare me at all... but so far i like 'kuch kuch hota hei' and 'dil jayange'(sorry i can't remember the full title it's something like that, the actor was salman khan, pretty zinta and rani mukajee)

cheers!!

the original la feeme nikita kicks major ass. I saw the professional before it came to america. i was like 7 i thought it was awsome even though i diddnt read much of it.

I've seen a fair amount of foriegn-language movies.

not as many as others though.

last ones I saw was a funny french film called "La Placard", and a japanese one (with GoGo from Kill Bill) called "Battle Royale". Subtitles don't bother me.

La Haine is also very good.
La Femme Nikita is okay.
The Ring was okay, the remake was better in my opinion.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is awesome!

Em, yeah, 90%, since they're english speaking with Norwegian subtitles.

I think subtitles are an advantage, cause you hear it all

The closest thing I have seen to a foreign movie is Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, which I found I didn't like that movie very much.

I have seen a bunch of Swedish movies, but most of those sounds translate on their own...

hmmmmm now i wonder what kinda movie YOU were wanking......oops watching!!!!

bunch of aaahh oohhhh eehhh that kind of sound i presume??

cheers!!

I completly forgot Asterix.

uh! thats an old one!!
i remembered one from argentina called "nueve reinas"... oh! and an other.. kinda new: "la fuga"
both really good

i've seen many Russian/Persian horror movies.

I rented one but by the end of the movie I think everyone started speakin' in English...I got confused

That one can easily be forgotten

My favorite foreign movie is Irreversible.


It's devistating.

i like thbe taxi movies

I've heard this about this movie before. I haven't seen it myself, but someone mentioned it was... devastating. This was the one with Monica Belluci? I heard the camera work was excellent to achieve the end result, and the fact it was filmed in reverse (not sure if it's the same movie).

ooh and japanese anime with subtitles.. totally forgot....

The foreign movies I've seen have basically turned me off to the entire "foreign" genre (that is, non-english-speaking films)- I saw Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and literally fell asleep, and I saw Amelie, which was SO stupid and SO boring I practically exploded. I have no desire to see any more, at the moment...

I haven't seen that movie, & I haven't seen any foreign movie too, but I think it's good to watch foreign movies.

sheryl, what about that movie?

hahaha... mssharrow its upto u to find out... this is the only thing that i will tell you... u will never forget that movie....

And also have u watch madam butterfly???? or el crimen de padre amaro???? or a very long engagement??? this are all nice foreign films... this are only some of the foreign films that i have watch...

As my native language is not English, most of the films I saw are foreign. I love Good-Old-PPR-Cinema.
What's more, my dad really dislike American cinema, so we watch French, German, Swedish, Russian or English films together. Specially Monty Python's

I'm a very big fan of foreign films. The best places to see original concepts are overseas or in Horror films.

I can't even imagine why we have a topic on this.

Which is your favourite one?

Holy Grail is without a doubt my favourite, but I also like some scenes from "Meaning of life".

My most favourited one is Life of Brian I've never seen any better!

Life of Brian has the advantage of giving a strong message :

"Always look at the bright side of life !"

This movie contains some very funny scenes Not all of them makes me laugh because it gets vulgar at some point

Vulgar? I wouldn't use this word.

Granted, this is a slught exaggeration. They still go too far, on my humble opinion...

loads of them

most r indian but cuz i can understand that so it's no problemo but i hav also watched some chinese n iranian movies

always wanted 2 watch this korean movie called "please teach me english " (cudn't tho)

n i lik readin the sub titles n stuff
