[edit] Icelandic submissions for Academy Award for Best Foreign Film

It seems that we both stated this page simultaneously... Please consider my version below: it already has all titles in both English and Icelandic, and all imdb links. --Explendido Rocha 13:08, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, the only changes I made were taking out double links on directors, adding links to some of the movies and changing some imdb links from uk to www. Thanks again. --Steinninn 13:17, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Icelandic film

Hello there in Iceland! Thankyou for adding the List of Icelandic films. Great! Feel free to expand the Cinema of Iceland page I started. Cheers! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 22:14, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello in Japan!! THanks for your kind words. I don't know what it is but I love the scenery of Iceland -Greenland too I also find fascinating, would love to visit both someday. Best thing is to google image the films -this is what I do. I also started Gunnar Sommerfeldt -you may have heard of him perhaps. One thing I would really appreciate is if you could work on the List of Japanese films which are grossly under developed. I have an enitre list of missing Japanese films for wikipedia if this will help. First though I beleive the films in Category:Japanese films need to be put into the sunnary tables and the details on director/actor etc wwritten in THis would ba great help if you could do this. Hey how come an Icelander is living in Japan? Rich? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 08:08, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually it is OK to have one or two film posters in the Cinema of pages providing the rationale is written in. They help improve an understanding of the cinema -see all the other Cinema of pages. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 08:12, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I live in Highlight Park, Barry, Wales but consider myself English. Lovely relaxing part - farm house next to my houses and the meadows of the Vale of Glamorgan. I have an attic room looking all across!!! I am part Swedish part Jewish. My real surname is Anderson the english spelling of the nordic name Andersen ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 08:50, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Chinese -> English

Once again Tarantino and his trying to be azn... tsk tsk. :p

什麼最壞能發生 is a verbatim (ie. ungrammatical) E->C translation of "what's the worst that can happen". And Tarantino is the "supervisor and manufacturer", Eli Roth is apparently the "write and orchestrate brain". The little words between the tagline and "Hostel" says that if I know Chinese I should keep the meaning of the line a secret. Or something. But you didn't ask for those translations so I'll stop ranting. In Mandarin the tagline would be pronounced "shen mer tsui huai neng fa sheng".

Your translation for the second phrase is correct, it means "Man like (as in similar) me; woman like (also "similar") you". The correct way to write it in simplified Chinese is "我这样的男人你这样的女人", you wrote the traditional form for "这" and used a "God" radical (示) instead of the "tree" radical (木). Pronunciation: "wo jer yang (German ang sound) de nan ren, ni jer yang (same thing) de nü (German ü sound) ren". -- 我♥中國 03:51, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

If you're looking for the Japanese transliteration for the Hostel stuff I can't help you there. If you're looking for the Chinese transliteration for that Norwegian film, it's what I wrote but change both "jer" to "zhe" if you want it in official pinyin format. -- 我♥中國 15:29, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh, yes I made a mistake there. The first "zhe" can be written both ways, and the character below it is "na" and you had the correct character. My bad. -- 我♥中國 19:34, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
