Quote:(It is amusing to note, however, that the subtitlers did not attempt to translate the Chinese, which is used in the show in replacement for swearing, instead preferring to subtitle it as "Speaks in Galactic language").
Quote:There are scenes with the action happening in one corner of the screen, or looking up from down near the floor, as though we are spying on the characters, a feeling accentuated by the grainy roughness of much of it. This documentary feel adds to the sense of realism the show generates, and makes sequences in which we apparently walk right through the Serenity much more believable – at times it’s difficult to accept that this is just a collection of sound stages and not one massive interconnected set.

"Galactic language"??? Does this mean the subtitles were redone for the R2 release, by someone who knew even less about the show?
