Thanks for the promote, but I don't think it's going to make it!

Yeah, I really like the fact that we can hold a good conversation here on the sift and exchange thoughts like adults. Didn't mean to sound confrontative in the thread, it's just hard for me to read in comedy over the net, especially since English isn't my first language.
Let's hope we get some more people interested in the discussion, would love to continue talking about this and see how people feel about it. I think we're able to make a pretty good case for ourselves

responded to this over there.

This is a really good conversation we've got going on, I'm enjoying it a lot. Sorry if I came off like I was being rude with quoting myself, it was more of a kind of comedic way of pointing out that I totally agreed with you/we were saying the same stuff. It didn't really come off clearly I guess, haha.

I agree that it's still ridiculous in the Japanese version, turns out it's the acting and script we've got a problem with
But what I wanted to say before was that the cutscene isn't necessarily bad because it's not a direct translation of the Japanese version, and that it could actually have been worse had it been directly translated.
Being a high-budget production, it's not out of line to assume they had a plan for dubbing it, but either the communication went wrong at some point or we weren't the target audience for the dubbing.
I wasn't trying to get at you with the post, but instead trying to flesh out your comment with some thoughts on the whole process, because it's quite the ordeal to translate something and it's so much more than just trying to fit the speech to the characters' mouth movement. We both agree that the cutscene wasn't very enjoyable, after all.

Doc_M is getting roasted.

Join the fun. Guess what the _M stands for. Make fun of the fact he is bad at science and believes in Evolution. Good times can be had by all.

Glad I could return the favor. Besides, a classic like this MUST be sifted.

I was about to applaud your googlefu, but then I realized that you were the original poster. Oh well. I don't know why that other vid was so hard to find. Maybe consider adding "nigga go home" to the tags or something?
