Foreign title translations!

2008-10-14 12:54:36




An alternate one for The Matrix:
Empire of the Shocking (Rulers)
Alternatively, 'The Kingdom of the Astonishing Ones', but... er.
(Actually it makes more sense in Chinese - haike diguo. hai=shocking/scary/astonishing; ke=people/entities/sentient beings diguo=empire.)
Actually it should be "Empire of Hackers". sort of true actually

Oh! And the Chinese translation of The Matrix:

22nd Century People Network



(My friend said it sounded like some online dating website.)

haha, I think I have seen it too. It is more like "22nd Century People-Killing Network". It sounds like a video game.

The most ridiculous yet sorta truthful Chinese translation of The Matirix I have ever seen on the cover of a pirated dvd (actually vcd at that time) is The Uterus
More journalistic fish

LOL, I am not a River fan so I always think this is just precious. There are River fans even NOW who still seem to hate Keanu for not being equally dead.
Do River's fans even know anything about his upbringing? Next to his apparent childhood Keanu's was positively sheltered. Not to mention that River himself was pretty open about the choices he made, and everyone else was pretty open about the choices he made for his MOPI character. I don't need to be there to know that. It seems Keanu is the resident scapegoat for just about anything.

Years ago when I was browsing Keanu's Chinese fansites, I saw a few River fans had said the similar words. They said if River were not dead, the fame and fortune Keanu had now should have belonged to River. They also said Keanu should have died instead of River.
That was the first time I was horrified by this kind of fandom. Totally unhealthy one IMO.

Matrix board fish again.

Just tell the guy to make another Matrix and have Will Smith play Neo. Problem solved!

Anakin, the gay rumor started off from late 1994 when Keanu was in Canada playing Hamlet. The resources you quoted are all after the rumor came out.

"pals David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg", why didn't they even include Steven Spielberg? These are all BS i have to say

Keanu said he did not want to clarify this ridiculous rumor at the beginning. However, people got more and more excited for the love of a billionaire and a super handsome movie star. They had to marry them off. Later his manager thought the gay marriage rumor had to be clarified. Then both sides denied it.

That was 14 years ago. It is almost impossible to find out. It seems there had never been pictures of them two revealed. But saying "Geffen is among Keanu's best friends and move to his house" makes me laugh . Keanu seems barely having any big-name friends. His friends whom he hangs out often with are almost all average people. I believe people have a tendency upon choosing friends.

As for the Geffen rumor, I have been wondering: what movie roles of Keanu's were most likely to be obtained through Geffen if the rumor were true? I can't think of any of them.

I did not finish War and Peace either. I read the Chinese Translations years ago. But the Russian version of the movie is really good and helpful to understand.
Someone finally put Parenthood

2008-10-03 12:15:16

The Night Before is really good. Actually I like quite a few Keanu's early movies (non famous ones): Young Again, Permanent Record, POP, Under the Influence, Tune in Tomorrow..........

I don't know how Winston was unpopular at school. I always like nerds.
Reading through old articles...

I agree. He has changed significantly since his early years. Do you gals notice even his voice is totally different from then?

Not just himself, look at the change of his movie roles. Those people who said seeing Ted in Constantine are simply blind.
Just finished Hardball

2008-10-03 11:41:36

Keanu gave an overall good performance in Hardball in my opinion. In a few scenes, I think he sorta overacted a little bit such as when he was talking to Diane Lane outside of the bar. But it could be my problem. I always found many well-acclaimed actings overacting such as Meryl Streep's in The French Lieutenant's woman.
Ohhhhh, come on!

2008-10-03 11:28:12

hahaaaaaaaaaaaaa, you guys are so funny. I probably have to transfer these two words whenever I see them in the future.

The other day flip said Keanu's co-star Hamm in TDTESS complimented his good look, which implied gay too. LOL The thread seemed to get deleted later though. She has been obessed with this gay idea for years (10-something). So I guess it may be understandable she can relate anything with being gay.
WHO R U??

hi, I am the same lefty10 in IMDB. I never checked my PM and didn't find out about this forum until today. I am excited to be here because the trolls in IMDB are unbelievable. I am Chinese and can only write short and simple English. I have been a long-term Keanu fan since I was in high school. My ID doesn't mean anything. It was just something random coming into my mind when registering.
