January 30, 20206 yr Popular Post Good evening and welcome to Yinns thai movie thread. @Peterw42 request me to start a Thai movie thread. Here it is. Anyone can add a movie. Two rules this thread. 1) Must be Thai movie 2) Must have English sub. If you have a movie, but can not find English sub, tell me and yinn will find. @Orton Rd help so much with the Thai Music We Love thread. He like this movie the most. So first movie is for Orton. I will post the movie peterw42 request soon also. And some I like also. Monrak Transistor (Thai: มนต์รักทรานซิสเตอร์, English: Transistor Love Story) is a 2001 Thai film directed by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang. Blending several genres, including comedy, romance, musical and crime, it is the story of a young man named Pan and his odyssey after he goes AWOL from the army and tries to make it as a luk thung singing star. *Some movie is easy to find English sub. This one a bit difficult. You need cancel the pop up ads on the “x”, then wait a few seconds and then cancel the ads (like YouTube ad). Maybe take about 1-2 minute before can open the movie, not give up!! Hope you enjoy! https://www.nungnew-hd.com/transistor-love-story-มนต์รักทรานซิสเตอร์/
January 30, 20206 yr If anyone can find a link to the old 70/80’s movie called Pi Sua Dik Mai (butterfly and flower) with english subs, it’s a lovely movie set in the south with southern dialect spoken. Another old one to look out for is “Hell Hotel”... brilliantly directed
January 31, 20206 yr This a favorite, a corny romantic comedy but its good to see what Thai people laugh at and laugh at themselves. watch with ennglish subs https://cholanadramamovie.wordpress.com/2016/08/09/thai-movie-atm-er-rak-error-2012/

January 31, 20206 yr Monrak luktung was the most famous and successful film of the 70's the country/city theme along with several good songs made it a hit for months in the cinema when released in 1970. This is an 80's remake, the original has not aged well and is almost unwatchable. although the audio is still ok
January 31, 20206 yr Popular Post Bad genius about cheating in School and touches on corruption by the authorities
January 31, 20206 yr Last executioner was not bad but can't find the full film, from what I remember went off the rails into the supernatural unfortunately. Quite a few obviously innocent shot dead over the years including three very famous ones in the 50's.
January 31, 20206 yr Its often hard to track down Thai movies, because you can set google to Thai and search for Thai name in Thai script etc, or you can search for the phonetic translation (the Thai name in English script) , or you can search for it English release name. For example, one of my favorites is a 2014 movies called "The Teachers Diary" คิดถึงวิทยา, is the Thai name in Thai Khid thueng withaya is the Thai name in English The Teachers diary, is the English name in English Knowing what to search for is half the challenge.

Another good one, An interesting scene in that movie that says a lot about Thai superstition etc, where they go to shoot the criminal and the gun jams/fails, rather than check/replace the gun they proceed to search the criminal because he must be wearing a lucky amulet that is protecting him.
January 31, 20206 yr Bangkok traffic love story, another rom-com, set amongst the BTS, songkran etc Can watch here with english subs, a couple of popups and adds to get to the movie http://kissasian.video/watch/bangkok-traffic-love-story/episode-Full.html

I met the Thai guy whose life the film was based on, smashing guy, sadly no longer with us. I met the producer some years ago, he hold me that the film wasn't going to be released on DVD, and I think it only has subs when I saw it, I have heard that it might available on Netflix. theoldgit

May 16, 20241 yr It's awesome to have a space where we can all share our favorite flicks from Thailand. I'm totally on board with the two rules - gotta keep it authentic with Thai movies and make sure we can all understand with those English subs!
May 16, 20241 yr Thanks a bunch for starting this Thai movie thread! "Monrak Transistor" sounds like a gem. I'm a sucker for a good blend of genres, and this one seems to have it all - comedy, romance, musical, and even a touch of crime. Plus, anything directed by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang is usually a good sign. Thanks for the heads-up on finding the English subs, though. Sometimes those pesky pop-ups can be a real hassle, but I'm willing to put in the effort for a good movie to watch. Thanks again for kicking things off, Yinn!
