Chinglish HK Subtitles
This is pretty random, but here’s some awful subtitles used in real (probably Kung Fu) Hong Kong movies. My favorites are:
- I am damn unsatisfied to be killed in this way.
- A normal person wouldn’t steal pituitaries.
- You always use violence. I should’ve ordered glutinous rice chicken.
- Beat him out of recognizable shape!
- The bullets inside are very hot. Why do I feel so cold?
