All Is Not Lost Yet

In the best tradition of rebel artists & revolutionary writers through the ages, one brave chap at SDI Subtitles has decided to take on censorship & subvert its oppressive forces. In a country where 'sex', 'shit', 'breasts', 'penis' and even 'screw' are bleeped out or reworded, this new age Che refuses to be cowed down:

As seen on Scrubs on Star World, this afternoon:

Dialogue: Don't be such a massive jackass.
Subtitle: Don't be such a massive prick.

  1. why do they subtitle everything these days? to make the culture more available to people who don't understand the accent? idiotic!

    I actually have to put a book at the bottom of the telly to hide the damn subtitles so i can focus on the visual rather than read the line and wait for the actor to voice it.. extremely irritating.
