[REL] Papa est parti, maman aussi (1989)

[Night457]

Thank you ghost! I had finally downloaded deadman's PAL.DVD.iso to sync it with subtitles, even though I own the physical DVD. It was easier than ripping the disc myself. However, I sort of expected you would end up enhancing the video ... I am very pleased I was correct.

I had machine-translated the French to English but had not even looked closely at the results. Yeah, that is an awful lot of talking in a film! Thank you so much for taking on all that work yourself!

There is sooo much talking in this movie...

Spoiler: They beat you, Night457

Spoiler: BWAA HAAAA HAAAA!!! Actually, I am not at all a talkative person. I just am able to WRITE a lot.

Wow, thank you once again ghost! An upscale, French subs and now translated English subs! Love this place!

Did you translate every line yourself? I notice you said "they" in your spoiler tag; was this a group effort? Either way, thank you so much, I've been excited for this movie.

Did you translate every line yourself?

Yes, I had to. The machine translation wasn't satisfying at all.

Oh no! This was just a litte joke between me and Night457... Just ignore it.

Spoiler: Some people may have noticed that I am capable of looooong posts. "They" the French characters in the film, were more verbose than even I am. I know, explaining a joke loses the humor.

Well in that case.

Guess I should have figured, but at the expense of lost humor, I still like to know everything in front of me. Anyways, I am quite impressed with your translation so far! I had no idea you were this adept in French also! Do you use machine translation as a backup for vocabulary or wording?

Spoiler: Sorry, as you can tell, I can be nosy for someone so reclusive.

Thanks

I 'google-translated' the subtitles using SubtitleEdit and then checked every single line for mistakes. So I had a kind of backup

I've not watched it ever - so will try and watch it this week - listen to see if it makes sense. I can always check it using that app I used to translate those 2 or 3 french films I did. I didn't think you did translation projects too Ghost?!

Sometimes when people add subtitles here they appear as a file to immediately download I think? Any chance somebody could do that?
I can't seem to get that tiny 100kb file to download on our usual client! Thanks in advance!

ghost's September 28 English subtitles:

Papa est parti, maman aussi (1989).720p.zip

You will need to extract it with 7zip, Winrar or the like.

You would think that subtitles would sneak in quickly in between emule video downloads but sometimes they perplexingly take awhile. I have my eMule client load all downloads in Paused mode so I often force it to work on the subtitles first! But if you are able to get ghost's video it would download eventually.

That is called an "Attachment" in posting lingo. To do this with your own subtitles: When posting a Reply in Full Editor mode, scroll to the bottom and click on "Attachments", then "Choose File", "Add the file", and "Place inline".

There is a size limit, so I zip almost all my subtitle attachments. (Sorry, you can't post whole movies as an attachment. ) If I provide subtitles for someone else's movie, I always post them as attachments. They are here forever without my needing to share them in emule, and no one has to request a reshare of a piddling little file.

Thanks, that was super quick. As you say you're normally online! But maybe I thought only admins could add attachments here? But I didn't have the file to post it here of course. Yeah, heard of attachments, emails have them. Been using email 30 years or more!
