Famous Thai Movie 1 Liners

[chuchok]

"What are you gonna do, bleed on me?" Holy Grail

"Why am I Mr. Pink?" Reservoir Dogs

"Zeds dead baby" Pulp fiction

[Gazza]

Name the film where the only word spoken was "Non" ?

Do you mean Suriyothai Kat?

If so it was surprisingly un nationalistic when you compare it to some films that have been made in the past. As for it being shown internationally, the international version was rather screwed up by Francis Ford Coppola and seems to be gathering dust in some vault somwhere. Shame really as its a glorious film. Oh well.......

The director/Producer MC Chatri Chalerm Yukol is now making a film about Naresuan which sounds like eclipsing even Suriyothai.

I don't remember what movie it was. I bought the VCD from Silom Rd and it turned out that they had a guy who didn't finish his high school doing the translation!!

The funny part was a guy sitting in a restaurant waiting for his soup that he'd ordered a while ago. Came the waitress , served a bowl of soup on his table

" Here's your soup"

The Thai sub-title was " นี่คือสบู่ของคุณ" (Here's your SOAP") !!!! LOL

You don't need to understand a word in that sentence, just have to have your eyes open~!!

[the scouser]

One film I saw with an English soundtrack but also English subtitles ended with the line "And don't forget I lived in a time of greatness." which appeared was subtitled "And don't forget I lived in time for a Guiness."

Scouse.

Brilliant. The translator of that subtitle definitely had to be taking the piss.

Speaking of one liners: have you ever seen t-shirt slogans in English that definitely seemed to be taking the piss, or even sinister?

I saw one chic, young guy sporting a t-shirt in Siam Center with the slogan: "I ###### for Gucci" Someone definitely had it out for that guy.

Anyway, sorry to stray slightly off topic - carry on.
