Subtitles can distract from what's happening on screen and vice versa, though. I watched Chanbara Beauty: The Movie - Vortex on Netflix last month and had this problem constantly throughout it.

That's a lot of punctuation in one title.

As an Anime Otaku, I've grown accustomed to reading subtitles from Anime that hasn't gotten an English dub yet. I do eventually watch it in English to compare differences in the languages, but to me, getting the show right now is better.

On the plus side, that's four pages we don't have to do season splits for.

The first trailer for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie came out:

Looks good visually, but I just hope they don't go overboard with the comedy.

I just saw it and now I got the Hoff singing that song stuck in my head.

Personally, I don't know anything about the comics of this bunch, so I have no expectations for it other than it'll be the same big blockbuster funding as all the other Marvel movies.
