Masklinn, you do not qualify for replying here ! But I do have a special question for you : do you think that the "Asterix and Cléopâtre" movie really can be translated, by subtiles or dubbing ? I laughed my ass off at Jamel's pharaoh joke, but I can't see how the fun of it can be passed, as many of the other so very French humour in the movie.

This is a good question. But think about The Monthy Phyton's movies for example, this is a good example of typical british humour, notice how the french subtitles are "arranged" for certain puns. There are some untranslatable stuff and the only way for you to get them 100% is to speak (or at least understand) the original language.
So yeah an english version of this movie will loose a good part of the fun during the dubbing/subtitling process. Some puns will be arranged to fit more.
The pharaoh's joke was pretty twisted too. How could you possibly translate that... [img]smile.gif[/img]
The Headlight-of-we ? Omg - LOL
Some other parts of the movie, like the kung-fu fight or Jamel's face expressions will still be funny for everyone...I hope [img]smile.gif[/img]
But remember Moiraine, le pharaon...c'est son appartenance
