In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran discuss a horrific month of December and a depressing FOUR defeats in a row - the latest coming against Wolves and Newcastle.
They discuss how much blame is on Ruben Amorim and rank our squad against other Premier League teams.
Do we have any chance of avoiding defeat at Anfield?
Not sure if you mean Gantz? That was pretty crazy.
Yeah never been an issue for me either.
One might be surprised to learn of studies regarding the issue.
I know a few people who refuse to watch subtitled shows because they aren't fast readers so they just can't keep up, so I guess dubs make sense for them.
I just don't understand why I would want to listen in Korean and read in English, when I can just listen in English?
Unless I'm missing something that's a million times easier and less distracting from the show itself.

Started watching that this weekend… a lot of similarities (I’m on episode 4. 3 was very well done) and would definitely recommend. Liar Game is next on my list.
I find it incredibly distracting when there are dubs that clearly don't match how the person's mouth is moving and what that person actually sounds like. Far more bothersome than simply reading subtitles, but that's just me.
And for anyone who hasn’t seen it, “Train to Busan” (another Korean production, a film) is very good .. well, I thought so.
Where can I watch Liar Game?
Me neither but I think we are used to looking at subs. Some people might not have that habit so it could be weird for them.
That and The Wailing are fantastic.
Yeah. That's worse for me. Plus the whole audio track changes and goes out of sync.
Having said that it can be a right laugh like Money Heist with the absolutely lame shit they had on the dubbed track.
It's the mouth out of sync with the sound for me. also the actors will be different for the voices, it just doesn't feel easy to watch dubbed.
I've been watching Dark with the subtitles - after a while you completely forget you're reading subtitles...almost feel like I can understand German now
Yeah, good movie. There's a sequel out as well - not as great though, but mildly entertaining.
Netflix Japan has it I think, otherwise just Google for a stream online. There's a TV series with 2 seasons and a movie to wrap the entire series.
Thanks I'll look for it!
It's just being courteous to your fellow posters. Some people might want to discuss the show after a few episodes or whatever, not everyone wants to only discuss it after they've watched the whole series. It's minimal effort, clicking on spoiler, to not ruin it for others.
All episodes and movie is available free on Youtube.
I rarely happen to watch subtitled stuff. But when I'm watching one, it only takes a couple of minutes to get used to the subtitles before I don't even realize I'm reading them.
Legend mate thanks!
Everything wrong with dubbing and TikTok in just 14 seconds. Impressive.
That was one of the scenes that made me think -what the hell!
and I was watching with subs.That was one of the scenes that made me think -what the hell!
To be fair, that right there is such a quintessential Korean cinema outburst of emotion. It's practically impossible to dub well
I watched Battle Royale and really enjoyed it
Watching Battle Royale 2 and it sucks. Was expecting another Battle Royale fight to the death but its basically a war film..

This is why I prefer subs also. Sometimes there are really good dubs and I don't mind then. But I prefer to just go via subs than take the risk.
I mean, no, if that's your takaway then you misunderstood everything.Just finished it

The Korean acting is taken in by audio and visual. The subtitles let you know the words behind the emotion.
Don’t kid yourself that if you’re reading you’re not watching. Driving a car is harder. 70mph and you have a brain processing three mirrors, a windscreen a radio and a conversation going on all at once.
It takes a while to get used to, but it’s incomparably better. You also open up a whole world of content.
This doesn’t really happen though. Your brain is exceptionally good at taking in a whole screen. You don’t just focus on text like it’s a book.
I guess it's better to let everyone do what's comfortable for them?
They will do an american remake at some point that will completely miss the point
I agree for most things but I will crush the spirit of anyone using dubbing. I will go to jail if I have to.
I'd agree if the show was a good one. For this it should be fine.
Yeah, it actually works well with the hammy acting. I wouldn’t suffer it for a show I was invested in though.
They will, and it'll star Mark Wahlberg who doesn't want to let down his daughter as the main guy, and it'll have a really shit title like...'Survival Game'.
More likely chris pratt or some unfunny cnut.
I was only being half serious, obviously I know it’s not as simplistic as that
Good thing about subtitles is that it made me put down my phone/laptop and actually watch what was going on. I really need to do that more often.
This is why Brits and Americans are so bad at other languages.
