Well, I know people who have the same problem. But I love foreign movies, and reading subtitles is quite easy for me. It depends on if the movie is really that important for you anyways. I watch anime and it's in japanese, but I'll easily watch it. But something like a political-based movie in french or something, you can't catch me keeping up with it. You have to focus on two different things that are very important to focus on... and picking subtitles is most likely the choice, but it takes away from the enjoyment and the figuring out what it what and who is where, etc. Anyways, it's quite alright to do that! ^___^

it takes a little getting used to but I love it, you miss soooo much when you dont read it!

yes

I watch subtitled movies all the time. I have no problem with them at all.

all depends on the movie and if i have seen it before, and if it is a foriegn film, a long film, the genre etc....I have good practice as i tend to have subtitles set on my TV

haha yeah.. it's hard.. and stinks sometimes.. but I had to do it for class!! we watched "ice age" in spanish!!

Yeah cause subtitles keep you away from the picture and it really gets annoying

Depends on if I'm interested in the subject of the movie....

I love it when they are in Chinese and scary !!!!

not really it's better than crappy voice-overs

I love subtitles. This way, if someone's running his mouth, I don't miss anything. I'm used to them. Try watching TV with Closed Captioning on. It will help train you.

it is frustrating definetly agreed. but if you do it enough youll get used to it. there are some great subtitled movies

omg I'm the same way I think the last time I one was 3years ago cuz I can not read subtitles and get what the movie is about at the same time..

No your not the only one. I love to watch foreign cinema but my usual cinema buddies will not go if the film is subtitled!! It's so annoying because they are missing out on some wonderful movies but they will not even try to watch them!!!

Since I'm from Europe, I'm used to watch movies from different countries so different languages. So it doesn't really bother me, i don't really realize the difference and i can read and follow the movie with no problem.
My bf is from the US and cannot stand it.
You just need some practice and it will become natural !!

this problem is the commen it happens with me also some. if you remove subtitle that would be good

I have watched foreign films for years and it comes with practice. You need to train your eyes for keywords and epecially if the characters are speaking fast. Try it when you're reading, it's a great technique for speed reading and comprehension.

U r one of the very few....it's a matter of getting used to

It's just something you have to get used to. I used to be the same way until I started watching dubbed Japanese Anime. It's really irritating to hear the english translation during the movie because, 1) No one talks like that in America and 2) It's hard for me to enjoy lines read by actors who aren't even involved in the making of the movie because it sounds fake. The thing is, other countries are making very good movies that don't conform to the usual "Hollywood formula" and I wouldn't want to miss them just because I don't like reading subtitles.

The subtitles also distract me and then i miss what's going on in the movie and it messes up the whole story line for me.

i use subtitles too. I am not technically deaf, but that's how i get to know how to spell stuff from the movies...

haha... sometimes actors whisper too soft for me to hear them so i use subtitles...
