Subtitles

[TENEBRAE]

Shameless must release the titşes with english subtitles.For example New York Ripper is censoured and it has no subtitles.Who wants to buy a censoured DVD without subtitles option and put it into his/her collection?

Well, the rude tone sounds familliar. Isn't it our old pal "Kameron" using another nick?
Seriously- IF I should be wrong: How could you expect getting any serious reply to this "first post" opening with a harsh demand instead of simply asking in a more polite and normal fashion?

"Shameless" DON'T HAS TO do anything, but they're very open to fan suggestions and questions, so if you give your next post a little thought before barking out demands you'll certainly get the answer you're looking for.

For someone who doesn't like Shameless' output, you sure do spend a lot of time on their website.

BTW "Tenebrae": What subtitles are you referring to? Subtitles for the hard of hearing?
Original audio with English subs???
I'm a bit confused....or not, really, since I doubt this thread has anything to do with its supposed topic anyway.

I have been chatting with an online friend from Italy the other day about subtitles, trying to persuade him to do some subs- I suggested la pretora (as I would) as a fansub, anyhow with his translations - they might need a bit of ironing out (I don't mean to sound patronising to the guy but english is his second language and not first), anyhow he is looking at the subtitling software at the moment and I have taken a look at subtitle files and they are not that complex to set up. The guy is a major exploitation/horror fan.

anyhow if I could ask my mate if he wil help shameless out I will, though I am sure you have your own people almar,

thing is, there are titles that exist that are not available in english, either dub or sub, just a thought but I am sure that giallo collectors, italian sex comedy collectors (I adore fenech personally) would pick up titles with the sub treatment whre no version curently exists for the non italian speaking viewer.

its just an idea, but I ll drop the guy a line if you like, see if shameless and he can work something out.

Original Italian Audio with English Subtitles or English Audio with English subtitles.If shameless will go on in this market, they must add subtitles to their releases.This is my idea of course.Also i am not Kamaran or whatever it is.

English audio with English subs , Why. ?

I agree with what everyone else has said.
Shameless are giving us what we want in as good a print as possible with I imagine, little profit for their effort and at little cost to us.
I don't want extras i'll watch once if it threatens the company's future output , I want Shameless to continue , and demanding this that and the other from a company who really seem to give a dam about us I think is disgraceful .
These guy's I recon are tied to a budget and IMHO give us a better all round product than the majors do when it comes to these type of films .
Well done Almar, and thankyou.

Always open to more input Herman. I would love to give you all ****-off editions with DTS tracks, tin cases, multiple language options, extras to die for and more. It's just not possible but... as time goes on our product is improving as the numbers slowly creep up and it's all thanks to pressure from you guys.

We can usually get Italian audio and we have looked into subtitles but when you pay an authoring house to so the job it's very expensive. We could do it in-house but it's very time-consuming but it keeps rearing it's head with us and one future title has been potentially ear-marked for subtitles.

It's all a balancing act - a couple of months ago I would have said Shameless was not going to last past the first collection but with some very careful juggling we're talking seriously about the future and always about improvement but the fan input is very valuable from donating artwork to helping out with audio quality issues and more.

Hell, if you keep putting titles like Designated Victim, Frightened Woman, Ratman, Dirty Pictures and Phantom of Death - you don't need anything more than a decent audio/visual presentation and some funky cover art!!!
