RE: Laputa the flying island

Yeah I remember this on Channel 4 long time ago...I decide to find it and I have bought cheap Studio Ghibli 4 DVDs - 12 movies including Laputa, Grave of the Fireflies, Valley in the wind, My neighbour Totoro and Kiki`s delivery service. I got it for 30 quids from e-bay.....so have a look. Mine was chinese language with eng sub...but it was good enough for me.

Star Wars I Eng sub - World first

For Deaf/HOH people also for Hearing people who wish to watch DVD without sound!

Check out www.dvd-subtitles.com for Star Wars II DVD extra features....will list what exactly English subtitle on the DVD. Although this is region 2 not 1. This is the world first for that kind of information on pre-release DVD. Thanks to Fox 20th Century.

I am in contact with Fox 20th Century company to provide information about English subtitle on every DVD since on DVD coversheet do not show any information about eng sub

Monster Inc. DVD (R2) most stupid pointless information ever

Other day I was looking at Monster Inc DVD and I notice the most stupid pointless information I even seen on DVD

If you look in the back coversheet there is small print saying "Bonus feature may not have subtitle" WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN ! Yes or No ?????? I have notice it is same as other on newer Disney DVD

To explain my point of view I am Deaf myself and rely on info to enable to buy some DVD (I prefer full English sub like Gladiator DVD) so can anyone tell me if Monster Inc. DVD bonus feature have eng sub or not?

Anyone know email to Disney?

Anyone interesting in Eng sub...there is website which is useful www.dvd-subtitles.com

RE: SUBTITLES

look up new website now set up recently to stop fool Deaf people into buying DVD film which do not have Eng. sub on film or extra feature.

it is www.dvd-subtitles.com

There is no law to provide English subtitle even we know it is discriminating against Deaf people.

Hope this help

Why there is no English subtitle in extra features

As I am Deaf myself - I am really annoyed that that most of the DVD films do have English subtitle but not on the extra features such as making of film, commentary etc. The information do not show on the coversheet which make more difficult to find out....for example Terminator 1 (R2) do have fully English subtitle but Terminator 2 (R2) do have subtitle but it is only in foreign subtitle !!!

I wonder if Terminator 2 (R1) is the same or does it show English subtitle I hope?

I only found 5 films that have fully English subtitle (including commentary) which is Gladiator, Shrek, Silence of the Lamb, Terminator and Matrix. Is there anymore out there?

Hope you can answer my questions on this about if this films do have English subtitle on extra or not ?

Robocop? 2 and 3?
Die Hard SE? 2 and 3 ?
Planet of the Ape (new one) ?
Predator SE?
Platoon SE?
Willow SE?

Thanks
