ESTRELLA'S PROFILE

I'm with boobledeeboo, I prefer talking to people offline more too. I'm not always the most talkatative person but when I speak, the way I say things is just as important as what I'm saying.

Online I actually tend to say less, because I can look at what I'm saying and think it over too much. Either I try to revise it because I think it looks stupid - already I'm doing this as I type this - and eventually post saying screw it, I think I conveyed what I wanted to say or I just withhold saying anything at all.

Usually offline the only person who cares when you something stupid is said is the person that said it, unless something really bad was said.

Dubbing can be great and usually is when Disney does it for Ghibli films. Its only downside is that the film becomes less of the culture it was from and more of the culture it was dubbed into. Subtitles have less lost in translation, because you can still hear the original voices as they were meant to be heard.

So both are great, especially if done well.

I don't watch anime anymore but I remember arguing about subs vs dubs with people before - the subject always comes up, afterall - and I think is the best, perfect reasoning to watch subtitled anime. I never watched dubs and it has nothing to do with the quality; there are good dubs and there are bad dubs. I preferred to experience the show closest to how it was intended to be watched by the people who made it.

I do find it funny that everytime there is a good dub people rush out to say it is better. Is it really better or do people just think that because it's good and in a language they understand? I've seen people say you can't judge acting in a language you don't understand when others claim japanese voices are better, so why doesn't it work both ways? ;p

So i played Celebrity Sports Showdown for the Wii with some firends last night and it was RETARDEDLY FUN.

Avril Lavigne kept kicking our ass, though.

What sports are in the game? If there involves anything you can hit Avril in the face it might be the greatest game ever... hmmmmmmmmm?

I rented FF when I was about five. I liked how I could choose my own characters and like Canuck, I thought the Black Mages were really cool. I don't think I got very far. We got a copy when I was in fourth grade and played it some more, but the furthest I got was after getting the boat from the pirates. Now I have Origins and I'm somewhere after when you get the airship. Never have completed the game.

Actually, I don't really like the first Final Fantasy. It never gives you an idea of where you are supposed to ho.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at. Actually, I am, I just don't see why it is a necessary reaction to what I said. People use the graphics they do in games either because they want to, feel it bests suits their game or it's the best they can do. I definitely wasn't trying to imply there was anything wrong with using RTP.
