Sherlockian Science
Nov. 3rd, 2012 11:13 amNow I'm torn. I wanted to have Sherlock do the burning rainbow for John, but this is flipping fantastic. I may have to go with this one instead.
If we continue to act like idiots, people will continue to think americans are idiots.
The new Aardman film has a different title over here.
The actual move is called: The Pirates! - In An Adventure With Scientists
I saw this advertised on buses in Edinburgh and got really excited. New Aardman! woo hoo!
Here, the movie has been released as: The Pirates! - Band of Misfits
I am reminded of the fact that the first HP title was changed because they thought kids wouldn't read a book with Philosopher in the title - my spin is they thought we wouldn't know what a philosopher was.
Now we (or our kids since I realize a lot of adults don't idolize Aardman as I do) don't enjoy scientists, don't want to adventure with them, and are no longer interested in searching the jungle for; Dr. Livingstone, I presume? - or alternately we wouldn't recognize a scientist if he came up and bit one of us...
And, honestly, we've given up on exploring outer space, so how can I blame anyone for thinking this? I want to tout all the good sciencey television we watch - Nova and Mythbusters, and I'd even add Fringe - our niece currently wants to be an Ornithologist when she grows up - but I am terribly afraid that we and those like us are only exceptions which prove the rule.
Quick! Someone replace all those: Pirates! With British Accents! with something those americans will be able to understand when they hit the theaters! You wouldn't want to have to add subtitles!
