I didnt think it was possible

But Dubbing has reached its all time low.  Dear god these dubs suck for Advent Children.  The only reason I am picking up the DVD on the 25th is for the subbed and extra features.  Thanks for butchering the original dialog!
*shake fist*

Wow.  I'm not AT ALL into anime, but I'm a die hard FF fan.  I've seen the Japanese version with good subtitles time and time again.  They have totally defecated on the original dialogue.  "You meanie"? What the fucking hell?  Maybe that's why I'm not a fan of anime, because because I've only been exposed to english dubbing jobs like this.

Yup, the dubbed version totally sucks. Not much of a suprise seeing as half the voice actors had no idea what final fantasy 7 is.

hmm it sounds like the sound was recorded with a mic, it does suck but i think (hoping) it wont sound as bad when i hear it on the actuall video, and yes that makes me want to instead watch the subtitled one.

[Ash]

is the subtitled version available on DVD? Or by only way of download? And if so, can some post a link cause I haven't seen it yet.

Yotogi your in luck the official release dvd on the 25th will have a subtitle feature with the original Japanese dialog.

I downloaded it a while back from Bittorrent...

between this and naruto dubbing.. I am extremely disapointed...

BTW Heiron.... your sig was better with one eye

I don't beileve that Square Enix would let this out that bad. SE is always decent with their voice overs..... It was suppose to be more of the same crew that did Kingdom Hearts 1/2. I just don't beileve that this is the same crew....

Sonypictures.com's final fantasy site has two clips up with the exact same voices.

I picked up the DVD today with an open mind despite my let down from the Youtube video.  Heh I was let down even further, so you thought "You meanie" was bad.  How Tifa says "drifting, drifting, drifting drifting" or the actual dialog "zuru zuru zuru zuru" in the subs becomes "Dilly Dally Shilly Shally" in the dub I will never fing know.

Thank the heavens for the original Japanese dialog on the dvd and very cool special features.

The only way Square can make this up to me is to do what they should have done in the first place. Put out a better fecking translated FF7(The PS1 despite being awesome had terrible translation errors) remake for the PS3 updated graphics and voice overs. I would be all over the Import FF7 remake.

WHAT IN THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT.

I'm not buying.

Personally I don't see way SE hasn't dumped money into being able to easily convert across languages. Like Postnuke, you just need to switch one folder and they everything is converted for that langage. Why can't they just make that so they change that folder and the langange change (along with month movements.)

I just finished watching it, I didn't think the translation was that bad.... The "meanie" line and the "dilly dally" was weird but it was good otherwise.
