Okay, I've lived long enough to know that ANYTHING can happen. So although I have no memory of ingesting ANY hallucinogenic or psychotropic substances prior to kicking back and watching my newly-obtained bootleg copy of BBM over the ironing tonight, I have to concede that perhaps it happened.
See I decided to turn the volume waaay down (son in bed asleep didn't really need to be awoken by some hot n heavy 2nd tent scene action) and switch on the subtitles. Also to see if my copy shed any further light on the c'mere, c'mere / s'alright x 3 debates. Forgetting, of course, that my copy (which was given to me by a Qld Police Officer no less! ;D) came from the shores of Malaysia, where its granted they may have some difficulty in their grasp of the English language, not to mention dodgy hearing.
I'm glad I have seen Brokeback and know it by heart, cause otherwise I fear these subtitles may have lead me a tad astray! Check it out:
The lines (so far - haven't even watched the whole film yet) range from the bad:
LINE: Your folks just stop at Ennis? / Del Mar
SUBTITLE: Folks are here? / Balmore
LINE: You pair deuces lookin for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in here pronto..
SUBTITLE: You pay look for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in your pronto
LINE: Thought I'd asphyxiate from the smell
SUBTITLE: Thought I've to fix it from the smear
LINE: ..unless you wanna sit around tyin knots all day..
SUBTITLE: I'll get this one and see around town, that's all
To the WAAAY off-topic and incorrect:
LINE: Beats workin for my old man..
SUBTITLE: he used to work for my old man
LINE: So why didn't we get the powdered milk and the spuds?
SUBTITLE: Yes, why don't we get a pail of milk on the spot?
LINE: What if Aguirre finds out, hunh?
SUBTITLE: What if Gary finds out, huh? (gary??) ???
LINE: Spend half the night checkin for damn coyotes..
SUBTITLE: Spent happy nite and checking for damn Kyle (kyle?!?!!?) ??? ???
LINE: I am pretty good with a can opener though..
SUBTITLE: I'm am pretty good with a canoe though (uuhhh.. good) :-\
To the somewhat prophetic:
LINE: Tomorrow mornin we'll truck you up to the jump off
SUBTITLE: My man will check you out at the jump off (i'll bet he will... binoculars an all)
LINE: Only thing, don't ever order soup
SUBTITLE: Only thing.. your man will order soup :-*
LINE: I'm commutin 4 hours a day
SUBTITLE: I can meet you for hours a day (we wish.. we also wish for it to be filmed..)
LINE: Aguirre's got no right makin me do this.
SUBTITLE: Gay's not rite to make me do this
I'm going to attempt to watch some more tomorrow.. I can't believe I didn't make it to the first reunion kiss!!

Oh my god Sheyne, you are making me cry with laughter! My sister now thinks I am demented! She is trying to study so I had to try and hold my laughter in, but I let a few squeeks out, so then she came to check if I was alright! She must have thought I was having a fit or something! ;D
I thinh the Kyle one makes me laugh the most! Who they hell is this Kyle, maybe that is how their secret got let out! Damn you Kyle!
You have to find out more they are absolutely hilarious! ;D

Forgot these doozies:
LINE: Said my uncle didn't die after all.. says bring em down
SUBTITLE: said my uncle went died, says you bring him down (WTF?!?!)
LINE: You boys sure found a way to make the time pass up there..
SUBTITLE: You boys should find a way to make a turn pass up up you (see above)
LINE: Twist your uncle Harolds in the hospital with pneumonia
SUBTITLE: you uncle is in hospital of ammonia (let this be a lesson to you - cleaning is BAD)
LINE: i'm gonna go up to the sheep now..
SUBTITLE: I'm going outta this sh*t now..
-
This. Is. Awesome.
Funniest thing I've read in a long time. With my whole heart and aching belly, I thank you, Sheyne.
-
I am literally rolling on the floor no! I think my sister has just rung a mental hospital, so if you don't hear from me for a while you'll know the men in white coats have come and taken me away! ;D
-
I cannot wait for the next installments of this. Sheyne - too too funny. Thank you!
I'm laughing so hard my dog thinks I'm barking at him.
You know those moments when somebody says "Tell ya what", or "soup", or anything else from Brokeback, and Brokies' eyes get that faraway look? Now there're going to be moments of inexplicable laughter when somebody says "Kyle", or "ammonia"....
-
hahahhahah...very funny....
the scary thing is I have watched newsclips from that part of the world....mind you important serious NEWS!!
the person being interviewed says one thing...
the translation says something completely different...
here I am jumping up and down saying...that not what he said!!!!
sigh.....Malaysia has English as part of their school curriculum....
obviously these fine folk failed it.
hugs

I can't stop laughing. I love language so much. This is better than chocolate in the deliciosity department.
I rmember being in Malaysia very briefly once (I think it's a coincidence that my story, too, involves Malaysia, I'm not picking on them) in 1990, and being in a shopping mall. Much of it looked exactly, weirdly like what it would have looked like in the United States, certain same brands (for some reason I remember Casio).
Anyway, the one thing that really struck me as hilariously different was the English sayings on people's T shirts. Things like "Hello yes happy park" written like it was a sentence that made sense. "Now girl bunny." I am making these up because I don't remember the real ones, but oh my god I love this sort of hing so much. So wonderfully ridickulous. I can't wait for the next installment, Sheyne. Thank you for spreadin the joy.
-
OH MY GOD, I can honestly say I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Best post ever!
-
Oh, Sheyne! Those are tooooo funny! I'm dying over here... please share some more with us... I would love it ever so much!
This thread is toooo great. ;D
-
Oh my god, Sheyne, I am killing myself laughing!! My kids have just come into my study wondering what the HELL is happening to me! I don't think they'd ever seen me laughing so hard. My son just asked if I needed a glass of water, and my 5-year-old daughter can't quite understand why I am crying, if I am supposed to be laughing...
PLEASE keep us up to date with the rest of the film as you go along.
One of my friend's got a son called Kyle, and I'm going to visit them soon... And at least now I can laugh instead of moaning when I do the housework!
-
Sheyne -
OH MY GOD. I'm just echoing what everyone else has said, but I literally just sat here, by myself, for ten minutes, laughing my ass off. My dog came running into the room to see what was going on! This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while - please post more when you get a chance! And thanks for starting this thread.
-
Sheyne, I think your official homework is to watch the rest of the movie in subtitles and share it with us! That is so funny! :D ;D
-
I sit here in my cube laughing hysterically. Everyone wondering what the hell is wrong (or right) with me.
Thanks for sharing-anybody got a Kleenex?
-
Glad I'm not the only one to have benefited from our poor Malaysian cousins shocking grasp of english..
Installment 2 to come tonight after I've watched the next lot.. ;D right now, I'm off to work..
-
Oh goody! Sheyne, I'd help with the ironing if I could.
-
What is it that's so hilarious about people from strange lands eviscerating the English language? It just pushes all my funny buttons. Ah, the sweet pleasures of laughing at people.
I can only hope that when I speak French, I manage to provide the same high quality entertainment. It just wouldn't be fair, otherwise.
I think, if I have to choose my absolute favourite, though (and I have so many favourites), it has to be "What if Gary finds out, huh?" Gary! The mysterious third angle of the love triangle! What if Gary finds out? I shudder to think of the consequences. Poor Gary. He'd be so upset. No cowboy of his own to keep him warm. You know, I can live with the boys cheating on their wives, but it's the cheating on Gary that I can't forgive.
-
Chantie, now I'm snorking and weeping again...
-
I can't stop laughing. I love language so much. This is better than chocolate in the deliciosity department.
I know. I'm sitting here, eating smarties (not the orange ones, they're disgusting), and trying to decide what's better: Smarties or Gary? Smarties or Gary? Smarties or Gary?
Gary.
A smartie is momentary, but Gary is forever.
Thanks again Sheyne for this. I've been chuckling all day.
-
Sheyne!! Soooo funny!!! Totally killing myself.. (i perosnally like the canoe one!)
and now Chanterais has got me thinking of the 'daddy or chips' advert for mccains. I love that ad!
OT - but I didn't imagine you with a kiddie sheyne - look entirely far too young to have a kiddie! (who must be a gorgeous little 'un given your looks...!)
-
oh good god. i just know I'm gonna think of these when i go to my friend's for our dvd viewing, and I'm gonna start laughing hysterically. I almost laugh every time I see Tootie and Elizabeth. and I think of the Cowboy Etiquette thread every time I see Jack sticking his foot into the fire.
-
Ahh. Ahhhhhh.
Feels so good.
-
LOL! That is hilarious:D
-
What a scream.
This line just slayed me:
LINE: You pair deuces lookin for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in here pronto..
SUBTITLE: You pay look for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in your pronto
In where?
The 'something lost in the translation' works both ways. One woman was wearing one of those cool t-shirts with Chinese characters on it, just to be pulled aside by her Asian friend and told that her t-shirt said "I f--k dragons"
-
;D

Lol.. here we go, Part II. For newcomers to the thread, we pick up on “Brokeback Through The Looking Glass”, just after the cowboys, the canoe-savvy Jack Twist and uncle-killing Ennis Balmore have left Brokeback Mountain. The things we have learnt from the story so far is that ammonia is bad, often putting uncles in hospital. We also learnt that Ennis (presumably right after he was denied the pail of milk on the spot) made Jack’s uncle so depressed he killed himself, Jack didn’t end up catching up with damn Kyle, for whom he searched all night and the Lord Sidious of this story is somebody called Gary. Wait!! I wonder if Kyle is the thus-far-nameless bandy-legged Basque??? Hmm.. the plot thickens! Here I was thinking this story was just about two men in love.. we’ve all missed the subtle nuances of mental illness, hunger, murder… and canoes.
Onto Part II. (if that was double dutch, by the way, check out the start of the thread) Please note that any spelling errors / bad punctuation are direct quotes!!
LINE: Ennis, can you wipe Alma Jnr's nose?
SUBTITLE: Ennis could you pump Junior's nose?

SUBTITLE: So. Save money for next injury feet, cowboy.
LINE: Y'ever try calf ropin'?
SUBTITLE: You're tracked down a bit.
*please excuse the graphic language here - its just not as funny with asterixes through it*
LINE: Wooee, look at this crowd! Be a lotta pussy on the hump in a crowd like this!!
SUBTITLE: Look at this god! There're lots of pussies on the ground like this
LINE: You need to shut your slopbucket mouth, y'hear?
SUBTITLE: You need to shut your "starbug" mouth, you hear (I didn't add those quotation marks guys..)
LINE: Lureen Newsome. Her dad sells farm equipment, I mean big farm equipment.
SUBTITLE: Laren Newsom. Her dad sells farmer things, I mean big farmer.

LINE: I can already see what little Bobby looks like.
SUBTITLE: I already see a little barbie she looks like. (hmm)

SUBTITLE: If far behind, we're the best. (yup, you go girl)
LINE: I'd have em if you'd support em.
SUBTITLE: I don't have you to support em (i thought this was interesting...)
LINE: Senor..
SUBTITLE: Here we are (you bet)
*okay I'm only putting in the first line of this.. cause i figure you all know this speech by heart*
LINE: I used to wonder how come you never bought any trouts home... (etc)
SUBTITLE: I used to wonder how come you never bought any tracts homes. You always say you can't play any. You know how mean the gal like fish. So 1 nite, i got your queer case open up before you win your little trip..
LINE: Price tags still on it after five years..
SUBTITLE: But I take still long after 5 years..
Phew... installment 3 tomorrow night... can't wait to see what they make of cassie...
;D
-
Thank you so much for these, Sheyne. They're still hilarious.
I love, "I got your queer case open" -- who in the world is writing these things? Seriously? I mean, I could understand if you made a few flubs every now and then... but to be in charge of this and to seemingly not know the language at all. It's just comedic.
I second the person that said if I ever learn a language... I want it to be just as entertaining when I speak it as this. :angel:
Otherwise, what's the point?
-
H I L A R I O U S!! Please post more!!
Love those:
LINE: New model comin in this week, remember?
SUBTITLE: Your mother coming down this week
I wonder why they didn't translate the 'remember?' LOL!

Great!!

SUBTITLE: I used to wonder how come you never bought any tracts homes. You always say you can't play any. You know how mean the gal like fish. So 1 nite, i got your queer case open up before you win your little trip..
I'm laughing out loud, but nobody hears, 'cause I'm making sounds that are too bizarre! This is fu*king fabulous! Excuse my French! ;D

OT - but I didn't imagine you with a kiddie sheyne - look entirely far too young to have a kiddie! (who must be a gorgeous little 'un given your looks...!)
You just became my best friend, Kelda... I'm actually 32 and probably old enough to be a granny to most people on here!!! :-\ And he IS gorgeous, but I dunno how much of that is to do with me - he looks a lot like my brother at the same age.. an my brother, he's a very fine looking guy...
*please, nothing filthy out of this* ;D

Yep point out all the pussies to god!

This actually made me spit my drink all over my computer(sorry for the graphic detail). I mean what's the point in hiding who you are, Ennis, when you have a queer case? hunh? ;D
I am off to go and play some tracts! :) but I can't wait for the third installment! :-*

[ Excuse my French! ;D

OMG, those are even funnier than the LOTR and Batman Begins ones! Thank you so much, I am crying with laughter. I can't wait for the next installment!
-
I told you they were funny Chantelle! I showed them to my mum and she thought they were hilarious! ;D
-
Really Sheyne, thanks for sharing ;D Hilarious is an understatement!
This reminds of me when I see subtitles to the songs in Indian films and they have cheesy lines like 'my heart calls out to you my beloved your ears in my face...' LOL talk about literal translation. Always makes me laugh.
love to all,
reanna

Okay, here it is.. Was almost afraid to watch all the way through to the end for fear that these Malaysian subtitlers would stamp on our holy ground and truly screw up the lines that mess with our heads and hearts.. And yes, there are some doozies... too many to type for nearly 1am Brisbane, Aust time but I'm devoted to y'all and I'll miss some sleep to bring these to yer.
A digest of some interesting new plot developments.. The gal Ennis Balmore was puttin the blocks to was in fact called Patsy, not Cassie, and our main canoe-man Jack Twist was puttin blocks of his own to a guy called Grandall. As Alma Jnr revealed in a tension filled scene, her mum and Robin have been awful "strick" on her (as for what happened to Monroe, we can only guess.. hope it has nothing to do with ammonia though or we may have to suspect Ennis's hand in it..) Other interesting developments is that - contrary to what us fans of the "alternate" version believe - Jack's father "doesn't" know where Brokeback Mountain is - I mean, I always thought he did, but there you go. And that the Twists have a family PLANT where Jack's ashes are going. Oh! And nobody in this tale is being kept on a short f**king leash. All this time, they were just being kept on a short f**king LIST. Hope this clears up any plot confusion for anybody (I honestly feel like I should be dragging on weed typing this...)
But the other butchered prose goes as follows:
LINE: You're safe. My feet hurt.
SUBTITLE: You see, my feet here hope.
LINE: And with the round up coming, I won't ever be home.
SUBTITLE: I want a round up common, I want everybody home
LINE: I guess I'll head on up to Lightening Flat.
SUBTITLE: I guess I had a bone light and flat. (Mandy, it is in your capable hands to make something truly filthy out of this... its there, its all there, bones, flats... >:D)
LINE: After we ship stock..
SUBTITLE: after we shit stuff..
LINE: We can hunt in November, kill us a nice elk...
SUBTITLE: We can hug on November, caress and nice oak.
LINE: This is a goddamn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation.
SUBTITLE: This is a goddamn non-side victory situation. (how COULD they????)
LINE: Ennis, girls don't fall in love with fun!
SUBTITLE: Ennis doesn't fill and live and fun
LINE: He was cremated, like he wanted.
SUBTITLE: He was cramp at it like he wants it.
LINE: We got a family plot and he's goin in it.
SUBTITLE: Where you get a family plant, he's going at it... (Hmrrmm, well, we can only wish he's goin at it BEHIND this plant.. and that somebody's filming it for us... go Jack..)
There you have... The credits roll on Brokeback Through The Looking Glass...
love yas... night night... off to catch some zzzzz's... ;D
-
OMG ROFL! That's so funny, and sad at the same time.
-
I get so emotionally and physically out of control when I read these, Sheyne. I weep with laughter. I don't understand why it does that to me. I mean you all say really funny stuff all day and night roun here, and I enjoy it, and sometimes even do Laugh Out Loud, but this stuff is piss-in-the-pants. You deserve an award for this oeuvre of yours. Thank you so much.
-
This is fu**ing brilliant! I'm still in the office and to refrain from laughing out loud I've been making funny wheezing sounds like a choking puppy or something..
It's absolutely hilarious! Love it all!
I wonder what list Jack was on then?! Did Ennis have a secret list of lovers? Too short the list, for Jack? Why? He wanted more?!
LINE: You're safe. My feet hurt.
SUBTITLE: You see, my feet here hope.
As long as they don't smell..
LINE: And with the round up coming, I won't ever be home.
SUBTITLE: I want a round up common, I want everybody home
Yeah, everyone home and Jack adopting the girls and herding sheep..
LINE: I guess I'll head on up to Lightening Flat.
SUBTITLE: I guess I had a bone light and flat. (Mandy, it is in your capable hands to make something truly filthy out of this... its there, its all there, bones, flats... )
Oh oh..
LINE: After we ship stock..
SUBTITLE: after we shit stuff..
Gaaaawd!! I hope that scene was cut..
LINE: We can hunt in November, kill us a nice elk...
SUBTITLE: We can hug on November, caress and nice oak.
Don't know how to hug a month, but the other stuff is good! Being one with Nature (minus the 'sh*t stuff').
LINE: This is a goddamn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation.
SUBTITLE: This is a goddamn non-side victory situation. (how COULD they? )
That's just too sad. I'll ignore this.
LINE: Ennis, girls don't fall in love with fun!
SUBTITLE: Ennis doesn't fill and live and fun
Yeah, we kind of knew that already..
LINE: He was cremated, like he wanted.
SUBTITLE: He was cramp at it like he wants it.
Hunh? How's it possible if earlier he was 'shi*ting stuff'?
LINE: We got a family plot and he's goin in it.
SUBTITLE: Where you get a family plant, he's going at it... (Hmrrmm, well, we can only wish he's goin at it BEHIND this plant.. and that somebody's filming it for us... go Jack..)
OOooh, Sheyne! Tstststs..
G'Night!

Question Sheyne, do you mind if I post this on a French BBM forum? Some of them speak very good English and will understand.. (not sure about the Malayan sub-titles though.. ;D)
May I?

I am laughing so hard I am crying!
I just went back and read the original thread on this...somehow I missed it yesterday.
Ennis Balmor?? Jack being buried in a plant?? OMG, this is priceless.

LINE: We can hunt in November, kill us a nice elk...
SUBTITLE: We can hug on November, caress and nice oak.
LOL I knew Jake like carpentary but feeling up wood is going a bit far don't you think?
LINE: We got a family plot and he's goin in it.
SUBTITLE: Where you get a family plant, he's going at it... (Hmrrmm, well, we can only wish he's goin at it BEHIND this plant.. and that somebody's filming it for us... go Jack..)
LOL Sheyne this is "Piss your self laughing" stuff! Wooops Miss I had an acident! LOL :-[ Only joking!
Ahh the mental images this subtitle conjures up.......Let me dream a while!........ ;)
LOL Sheyne you are the queen of all things comedic! Seriously this stuff is comedy gold! I love this and you hun! :-*
Thanks for posting!

This is too funny for words! I love it.
My favorite part:

SUBTITLE: We can hug on November, caress and nice oak.
-
LINE: I can already see what little Bobby looks like.
SUBTITLE: I already see a little barbie she looks like. (hmm)
no wonder Bobby was acting like Tony Soprano. He butches up cause his grampa kept thinking he's looks a barbie. Makes so much sense now.

Of course you can, Jude.. hope they get a giggle out of it... Honestly, some of the lines myself - the caressing nice oak one... oh god, you have just got to hope that some people aren't relying on these subtitles to understand the film because you're going to get some poor viewers walking away and trying to discuss it on a forum somewhere and wanting to know where in the hell in Wyoming Jack was able to get good with using a canoe?? And did Ennis ever have to face judgment over depressing Jack's uncle to death. And what ever became of Kyle, Gary, Patsy, Grandall and the family plant?? Not to mention who else was on Ennis's short list?? hmmmm
-
I think there are some interesting developments on the canoe front! I mean in november they can hug and feel up some oak, hey maybe the canoe is made of oak and that is what Ennis is refering to! And he has been asking Jack to show him how to ride the rapids! Oh never mind the actual storyline, this has just got interesting people! :o
-
omg that is so funny, but sad too for the poor people who are going to think how terrible bbm is because of it!
either way, i found me a new signature lol
thanks for posting these sheyne :D

Thank you Sheyne! I will post it there and will let you know about the reaction (if any..)!
It's just brilliant! It's like a parallele story - I'd love to see Jake and Heath re-enact some of those scenes.. Especially the oak caressing! LOL!
Good night -

Oh my GOD Sheyne!
I literally have tears on my face from laughing so hard. Thank you thank you thank you for posting this!

LOL!!! Oh my, that is so friggin' funny. Most of the times that I write "LOL", I'm not actually laughing out loud, but this time I am!! HAHAHAHahahaha! But, it worries me that they may have a very distorted view of our beautiful BBM. Still hilarious though! ;D
SUBTITLE: I guess I had a bone light and flat. (Mandy, it is in your capable hands to make something truly filthy out of this... its there, its all there, bones, flats... )

Hilarious again, especially the caressing the oak thing. I'm almost sad it has come to an end. God I'd LOVE to read posts on a forum dedicated to discussing the film after these subtitles!!!
And I thought the French translation of Annie's story was crap! The Malaysian version is a classy kind of crappiness: it is FUNNY!

Sheyne, as you requested, for the first time ever, I tried the merge function, and now your two threads are one. What I didn't understand would happen, til after I merged them, is that it melded the threads, sorting all the posts by date, so that the two threads are now mixed into one, all posts in chronological order. Hope that's okay. Seems to be, in this particular case.
I also changed the subject line of your first post to reflect the merging - temporarily, of course, til you change it to whatever you want it to be.
-
Again... bumping for Celeste...
;D
Ooooh - I'm so excited! Thanks.

I sit here in my cube laughing hysterically. Everyone wondering what the hell is wrong (or right) with me.
Thanks for sharing-anybody got a Kleenex?
OMG!!
I am laughing and crying and trying not to make noise all at the same time, and I'm at work, so it's very bad on all counts. Sheyne, friend - thanks so much for posting this, and then bumping it for me. Bet Malaysians don't think BBM was so great!
:o :o :o :o

Nice job on the merge too, Elle. Its' great all in one place. I wonder if this can be copied somehow. The folks on the rest of BetterMost would laugh as much! I think I'll just go post a link for now...

littledarlin got thr best name, and the best subtitle too: "we can hug on November, caress and nice oak" I love the way subtitler got both "hug" and "caress" into something someone said in the middle of an argument..well, the beginning of one...
If I wasn't se enamored of the ancient Chinese poem and that blue, blue shirt of yours, I'd steal it...

no kidding. changing "hunt" and "kill" into "hug" and "caress". now if we can get the NRA people to make those same changes.

LINE: This is a goddamn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation.
SUBTITLE: This is a goddamn non-side victory situation. (how COULD they????)
Wow. Come to think of it, it really was a goddamn non-side victory situation.
And did Ennis ever have to face judgment over depressing Jack's uncle to death. And what ever became of Kyle, Gary, Patsy, Grandall and the family plant?? Not to mention who else was on Ennis's short list?? hmmmm
That was my favorite part. Sheyne, you're priceless. :-*
-
I think I have it figured out! Kyle and Gary are the Chilean sheepherders who live on the sunny side of Brokeback Mountain! They wouldn't hurt a fly... or peek at it either... or google anyone!
Thanks for merging this great thread!

I should not have read this thread at work--thought I'd asphyxiate tryin' not to laugh out loud. ;D
I wonder whether the Malaysian subtitlers have since moved to Philadelphia to do the close-captioning for the local evening news? In several rooms at my gym, they have TVs that are usually tuned to the evening news while I'm working out. The sound is turned off, and the close-captioning is turned on, and some of the bloopers are almost as bad as these from the movie.

This thread is always good for a laugh. So bumping! It had slipped a little too far down the page list. For anyone who hasn't seen this thread before... even though it's long, it's really worth reading it from the beginning. Classic.
;D :laugh:
-
Thank you so much for these, Sheyne. They're still hilarious.
I love, "I got your queer case open" -- who in the world is writing these things? Seriously? I mean, I could understand if you made a few flubs every now and then... but to be in charge of this and to seemingly not know the language at all. It's just comedic.
I second the person that said if I ever learn a language... I want it to be just as entertaining when I speak it as this. :angel:
Otherwise, what's the point?
I always thought "creel case" was a bit odd. The thing is a creel - a basket with a slot in the top for just-caught fish, that's what a creel is. Or did he never take his creel out of its creel-case....?
I wonder if there's some audio version of Babel Fish they're using, or Dragon Dictate?That would explain it, a little.
But we should be charitable. I bet your Malaysian is a bit rusty, I know mine is.

In honor of more than a year of this wonderful thread, I am going to repost Sheyne's first post here...enjoy, all.
Okay, I've lived long enough to know that ANYTHING can happen. So although I have no memory of ingesting ANY hallucinogenic or psychotropic substances prior to kicking back and watching my newly-obtained bootleg copy of BBM over the ironing tonight, I have to concede that perhaps it happened.
See I decided to turn the volume waaay down (son in bed asleep didn't really need to be awoken by some hot n heavy 2nd tent scene action) and switch on the subtitles. Also to see if my copy shed any further light on the c'mere, c'mere / s'alright x 3 debates. Forgetting, of course, that my copy (which was given to me by a Qld Police Officer no less! ;D) came from the shores of Malaysia, where its granted they may have some difficulty in their grasp of the English language, not to mention dodgy hearing.
I'm glad I have seen Brokeback and know it by heart, cause otherwise I fear these subtitles may have lead me a tad astray! Check it out:
The lines (so far - haven't even watched the whole film yet) range from the bad:
LINE: Your folks just stop at Ennis? / Del Mar
SUBTITLE: Folks are here? / Balmore
LINE: You pair deuces lookin for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in here pronto..
SUBTITLE: You pay look for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in your pronto
LINE: Thought I'd asphyxiate from the smell
SUBTITLE: Thought I've to fix it from the smear
LINE: ..unless you wanna sit around tyin knots all day..
SUBTITLE: I'll get this one and see around town, that's all
To the WAAAY off-topic and incorrect:
LINE: Beats workin for my old man..
SUBTITLE: he used to work for my old man
LINE: So why didn't we get the powdered milk and the spuds?
SUBTITLE: Yes, why don't we get a pail of milk on the spot?
LINE: What if Aguirre finds out, hunh?
SUBTITLE: What if Gary finds out, huh? (gary??) ???
LINE: Spend half the night checkin for damn coyotes..
SUBTITLE: Spent happy nite and checking for damn Kyle (kyle?!?!!?) ??? ???
LINE: I am pretty good with a can opener though..
SUBTITLE: I'm am pretty good with a canoe though (uuhhh.. good) :-\
To the somewhat prophetic:
LINE: Tomorrow mornin we'll truck you up to the jump off
SUBTITLE: My man will check you out at the jump off (i'll bet he will... binoculars an all)
LINE: Only thing, don't ever order soup
SUBTITLE: Only thing.. your man will order soup :-*
LINE: I'm commutin 4 hours a day
SUBTITLE: I can meet you for hours a day (we wish.. we also wish for it to be filmed..)
LINE: Aguirre's got no right makin me do this.
SUBTITLE: Gay's not rite to make me do this
I'm going to attempt to watch some more tomorrow.. I can't believe I didn't make it to the first reunion kiss!!

I'm laughing out loud reading this again, even though i know many lines by heart. And i love the comment Sheyne added here and there :laugh:

SUBTITLE: Spent happy nite and checking for damn Kyle (kyle?!?!!?) ??? ???
I'm glad he enjoyed himself, but I'm still wondering whether he ever found Kyle. ... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

SUBTITLE: I used to wonder how come you never bought any tracts homes. You always say you can't play any. You know how mean the gal like fish. So 1 nite, i got your queer case open up before you win your little trip..
If Ennis had a queer case, I wonder whether Jack got a toaster oven for FNIT? ;D

I was reminded of this thread by a story on the news last evening about a couple of dogs who have been trained for the war on bootleg DVDs. The dogs have been trained to scent chemicals used in the process of manufacturing the DVDs, so they can be used to sniff out counterfeits.

Aw, this is fun. I can’t believe I missed out on it when it was fresh and new. I think I saw the thread title, thought it was some weird fanfic, and skipped it. Belated thanks, Sheyne, for sharing this with us.
LINE: Your folks just stop at Ennis? / Del Mar
SUBTITLE: Folks are here? / Balmore
I hear that “Balmore” is how natives of the area pronounce “Baltimore.”
LINE: You pair deuces lookin for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in here pronto..
SUBTITLE: You pay look for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in your pronto
I once knew a boy who could get his ass in his pronto. He was a FREAK!
LINE: What if Aguirre finds out, hunh?
SUBTITLE: What if Gary finds out, huh? (gary??) ???
Girl, you musta been watching an old episode of “Knots Landing” on Soapnet, not “Brokeback Mountain.” I liked to have died when Valene was finally reunited with her kidnapped babies.
LINE: Spend half the night checkin for damn coyotes..
SUBTITLE: Spent happy nite and checking for damn Kyle (kyle?!?!!?) ??? ???
I once saw a personal ad from a guy who listed all the things he liked. . . “music, dancing, and guys named Kyle.” Come to think of it, there are a lot of cute guys named Kyle out there. And Todd.
LINE: Twist your uncle Harolds in the hospital with pneumonia
SUBTITLE: you uncle is in hospital of ammonia (let this be a lesson to you - cleaning is BAD)
Ole Uncle Harold clearly didn’t read the directions on the back of the bottles, mixed bleach and ammonia, and inhaled the fumes.
LINE: For you forgettin to bring that harmonica..
SUBTITLE: you forget to bring me Hallmark
Next line: When’d you get so uppity that a damn postcard ain’t good enough fer ya?
LINE: New model comin in this week, remember?
SUBTITLE: Your mother coming down this week
So, in the Malaysian version of the movie, Lureen and Mrs. Twist did meet each other. That’s nice.

Two cowboys, one cup.
LINE: I'd like to buy Jimbo here a beer.
SUBTITLE: I'd like to buy Jim O'Neal a beer. (oh, that clears it up..)
This my show my ignorance, but Who is Jim O'Neal?
Jim O’Neal is Jimbo’s Christian name, dear. They musta cut out the part where Jack introduces himself, Jimbo introduces himself as “Jimbo,” Jack says, “Your folks just stop at Jimbo?”, and Jimbo says, “O’Neal.”

Jim O'Neal stared at the screen, reading the message one more time before he clicked submit. "SWGM, 28 years old, lives in the city. I like music, dancing, and guys named Kyle..."
He sighed. Was this the right thing to do? Place personal ad in the paper? He'd never done anything like this before, but things had been so rocky with Gary for the past few months. He didn't know what was going on. Jim thought to himself, "I still love him...or at least I think I do...."

yeah the canoe is good, but kyle? i can just see jack up all night looking for this little troll like guy named kyle who runs around the sheep and hides in the bushes all day and night.
or when ennis says "shot a cyote (kyle) last night. had balls on him the size of apples.....could've eaten himself a camel"
i'm still laughing.

In fact it is so unusual for me to laugh these days ,my husband and kids actually came outside to see what was going on.You should be able to get those lines on prescription.
My brother works in Japan as a translator of legal documents and patents.He gets them to check over once the Japanese hav done their best or worst.

I have been so depressed recently,I really had forgotten how good it is just to have a proper belly laugh.as opposed to a wry grin.
In fact my daughter ran up to her brother when he returned fom a friends house and said 'You'll never guess what, mum was laughing so much before she nearly wet herself"
That is how grim things have been here recently.

Excuse me, but 'Chuck's mariconera'? ???
Ok, this is a bit of an explanation, and off topic, and some people may find certain terms offensive.
Over here in the states we have "waist bags" or "fanny packs". They look like this.
(http://www.holsterheaven.com/handgun-fanny-pack.jpg)
I have one that I occasionally use, but I wear it slung over my shoulder. I call it my "fag bag".
I was telling the women at work about it and that I call it my "fag bag" and one of the women said that in Spanish they have that term as well, "Mariconera".
It rolls off the tongue nicely and sounds so much classier than "fag bag", so now I call it my Mariconera.

Some of these are a riot! My favorites, and their interpretations:

Quote from: Becky on April 05, 2006, 07:40:22 am
This my show my ignorance, but Who is Jim O'Neal?
Jim O’Neal is Jimbo’s Christian name, dear. They musta cut out the part where Jack introduces himself, Jimbo introduces himself as “Jimbo,” Jack says, “Your folks just stop at Jimbo?”, and Jimbo says, “O’Neal.”

Thanks for the smile,

Ok, this is a bit of an explanation, and off topic, and some people may find certain terms offensive.
Over here in the states we have "waist bags" or "fanny packs". They look like this.
(http://www.holsterheaven.com/handgun-fanny-pack.jpg)
I have one that I occasionally use, but I wear it slung over my shoulder. I call it my "fag bag".
I was telling the women at work about it and that I call it my "fag bag" and one of the women said that in Spanish they have that term as well, "Mariconera".
It rolls off the tongue nicely and sounds so much classier than "fag bag", so now I call it my Mariconera.
Thanks for the explanation, Chuck!
I don't really know what I expected, but probably something much worse than a waist bag!! ;D
I never understood the word fanny pack, as if if was carried the other way around.
Btw, in Sweden we call them "magväska", stomach bag.

Is that a gun in your mariconera, or are you just glad to see me?
;D

Time for a bump. Folks are in need of a laugh. :)

Ok, this is my theory, and be warned, more potentially offensive verbiage below.
I believe the term "fanny pack" started in England. On a trip to the UK I was told that over there, they call a woman's "front" her fanny. Apparently it's an offensive term there, much like the American slang term that starts with "P" and to quote a rap song "is another way to call a cat or kitty."
think "pussy willow".....:laugh:
I always wondered why we called it a "fanny pack" here when it's worn in the front, but over here some people will refer to their rear ends as their "fanny".
This really makes me laugh, but I have a friend out in LA who refers to his bag as his "pussy pouch".
:laugh:

But it was originally meant to be worn on the bottom right? Thats why you guys call it a fanny pack and us a bum bag.

I suspect when they were first invented, they were worn in the back. Then people discovered how easily a skillful thief could open the zipper and steal your wallet, or whatever, especially in a crowd, so they started wearing them in front for security.

I'm surprised nobody has bumped this thread yet. This is the funniest thread ever.
Chrissi, do you still have Ennis's "queer case"? Are you taking it to Alberta with you? ;D
-

Sadly no. :(
The pic is long gone and I didn't save it. I googled before, but can't find it anymore.
On a brighter note, maybe Ennis came by and took it with him. ;)
He really needed his queer case for more fishing trips with Jack. :D

Way past due for a bump. :)

The 'something lost in the translation' works both ways. One woman was wearing one of those cool t-shirts with Chinese characters on it, just to be pulled aside by her Asian friend and told that her t-shirt said "I f--k dragons."
I want one of those t-shirts. ;)

I was thinking of this thread a day or two ago.
Something new at my gym is the addition of TV screens mounted on the stationary bicycles and stair climbers and such machines. The sets apparently have the closed captioning permanently turned on so you can watch a program without disturbing other people. Anyway, some of the closed captioning, especially for local news broadcasts, can be as loopily wrong as some of the Malaysian subtitles.
I was riding the bike the other day, and a news program featured an interview with a woman who has just published a book about what happens to food inside us after we eat it. Whoever was doing the closed captioning "in the moment" rendered the phrase alimentary canal as elementary canal. ;D
-
All right, it's Thursday. Bumping. the. best. thread. ever. ;D
-
I think I found Ennis' queer case ;)
(http://www.vintage-instyle.com/images/morepurses_19/creel_basket_4.jpg)
I'm so upset the 'queer case' is gone! LOL
I vaguely remember it, it had fish on it, it was a lady's purse, IIRC.

Me three. I already tried to google it some years ago, but to no avail. :-\
I still have a clear image in my mind, I could draw it. If I could draw, that is. It was black, with fishes and sequined and made of wicker and looked like a real creel case, only smaller.
Why, oh why didn't I understand the secrets of photobucket earlier? ::) :laugh:

I guess it's a day late and a dollar short to bump this for Throwback Thursday, but this is still the best thread ever.
Whoever did these subtitles must have been doing them as the movie ran--like the people who do the "close captioning" for the TV news. Some of those news captions are as hilarious as these subtitles.
I wonder how Gary, Kyle, and Jim O'Neal are doing? 8)

This line just slayed me:

In where?
The 'something lost in the translation' works both ways. One woman was wearing one of those cool t-shirts with Chinese characters on it, just to be pulled aside by her Asian friend and told that her t-shirt said "I f--k dragons"
I wouldn't mind having a t-shirt that said that. ;D
Better than trying to get my no-longer-scrawny ass into my pronto. :laugh:
-
In spite of the fact that I'm having some badly needed laughs over this thread, revisiting it is a little bittersweet, too, as I scroll down and see all the screen names of folks who don't come around any more; some of them haven't been back for years, now. :-\
-
Shows you how bad my memory has become: I've said more or less the same thing at least three times now.
Whoever did these subtitles must have been doing them as the movie ran--like the people who do the "close captioning" for the TV news. Some of those news captions are as hilarious as these subtitles.
And I forgot all about Patsy, Grandall, Robin, and the Twist Family Plant. :-\

OMG, this thread is so funny! Thanks for bumping it, Jeff!
I just re-read it, and I'm happy to report it's still a hoot!! :laugh:

I've tried to re-find his original queer case a couple of times (pretty much every time this thread is bumped, lol), but to no avail. Now I can rest easy, knowing Ennis' needs are covered. ;D

so many options for the queer case, however will he choose?

These Malaysian subtitles are as funny today as they were 11 years ago.
On the other hand, when you read through the thread, it's kind of sad to see the screen names of all the folks who have left us (and moved on with their lives?).

I've always assumed they were created by someone for whom English is not the first language, who was typing these things as the movie was playing.
I've seen goofs that must have been made that way in closed captioning for hearing-impaired people, but never anything as bad as these movie subtitles.

This thread sure is a good way to celebrate! :laugh:

Yes, it sure is!

It's been almost a year since we visited Kyle, Jim O'Neal, and all our Malaysian Brokie friends. Pull up a log, stick a boot in the fire, and have a high time. ;D

They are as funny today as they were 15 years ago.

Finding the mondegreen "Knockin' on Kevin's Door" this morning reminded me of this thread. :)
I wonder where Gary, Kyle, and Jim O'Neal are today? ;D
Okay, I've lived long enough to know that ANYTHING can happen. So although I have no memory of ingesting ANY hallucinogenic or psychotropic substances prior to kicking back and watching my newly-obtained bootleg copy of BBM over the ironing tonight, I have to concede that perhaps it happened.
See I decided to turn the volume waaay down (son in bed asleep didn't really need to be awoken by some hot n heavy 2nd tent scene action) and switch on the subtitles. Also to see if my copy shed any further light on the c'mere, c'mere / s'alright x 3 debates. Forgetting, of course, that my copy (which was given to me by a Qld Police Officer no less! ;D) came from the shores of Malaysia, where its granted they may have some difficulty in their grasp of the English language, not to mention dodgy hearing.
I'm glad I have seen Brokeback and know it by heart, cause otherwise I fear these subtitles may have lead me a tad astray! Check it out:
The lines (so far - haven't even watched the whole film yet) range from the bad:
LINE: Your folks just stop at Ennis? / Del Mar
SUBTITLE: Folks are here? / Balmore
LINE: You pair deuces lookin for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in here pronto..
SUBTITLE: You pay look for work I suggest you get your scrawny asses in your pronto
LINE: Thought I'd asphyxiate from the smell
SUBTITLE: Thought I've to fix it from the smear
LINE: ..unless you wanna sit around tyin knots all day..
SUBTITLE: I'll get this one and see around town, that's all
To the WAAAY off-topic and incorrect:
LINE: Beats workin for my old man..
SUBTITLE: he used to work for my old man
LINE: So why didn't we get the powdered milk and the spuds?
SUBTITLE: Yes, why don't we get a pail of milk on the spot?
LINE: What if Aguirre finds out, hunh?
SUBTITLE: What if Gary finds out, huh? (gary??) ???
LINE: Spend half the night checkin for damn coyotes..
SUBTITLE: Spent happy nite and checking for damn Kyle (kyle?!?!!?) ??? ???
LINE: I am pretty good with a can opener though..
SUBTITLE: I'm am pretty good with a canoe though (uuhhh.. good) :-\
To the somewhat prophetic:
LINE: Tomorrow mornin we'll truck you up to the jump off
SUBTITLE: My man will check you out at the jump off (i'll bet he will... binoculars an all)
LINE: Only thing, don't ever order soup
SUBTITLE: Only thing.. your man will order soup :-*
LINE: I'm commutin 4 hours a day
SUBTITLE: I can meet you for hours a day (we wish.. we also wish for it to be filmed..)
LINE: Aguirre's got no right makin me do this.
SUBTITLE: Gay's not rite to make me do this
I'm going to attempt to watch some more tomorrow.. I can't believe I didn't make it to the first reunion kiss!!
