I mean the company, not Mr. Disney himself.

Anyway, look at this crap.



That's what Disney dubbed. Look at the UK dub.



Overall superior. Shou (or Shawn, depending how you want it) doesn't sound like a 20 year old, Arrietty sounds like a real ordinary girl and not someone like Miley Cyrus, and it portrays the film as what it really is.

The Disney trailer is everything I hate about American media. They try to pass off a fantasy movie as an action flick. Heck, the Disney trailer sounds like it comes from Spiderman or something. "My mother and I were Borrowers" sounds like "My name is Peter Parker, and I have a secret" to "I am Sam Witwicky, and I just discovered something amazing" ... It's the same damn format every time.

End rant.



Original Japanese trailer for comparison.

Well whatever I said here, please don't make me discourage you from watching this amazing work of art.

I hate the awful english dubs. Even though my japanese is minimal, I prefer subtitles to inaccurate dubbing.

Not all english dubs are awful though. In their defense, they've done a masterful job on Yu Yu Hakusho, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, and Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

First Time I Saw The Trailer I Thought It Was Disney I Was Surprised To See That That The Animation Was Just To Good , But Now I Know That Wasn't Disney Animation And It Was Japanese In Original. Thank You +Rep.
