engrish preese
These dvd sets I mentioned last time are rad. No spell or grammer check apparently in China…
The Star Wars set I saw was actually about normal size, but Roswell’s case is the size of a hardback book, while X-files is even larger, and Friends is even bigger than a case logic dvd case. And the type on the boxes gets funnier and funnier.
(I am not misspelling these or making these up. These are as they appear on the movie cases.)
The X-files Collector’s Edition (1-9) The complete ONE to NINE Season
“You Cannot Help But be Won over By “Buddy.”It’sA Great Kids Movie”
David Duchovnt and Gillian Anderson
“*****. A Magnificent Movie”
--Michael Medved,New York Post
Then there is other fun stuff on the back like:
The Complete Eaghth Season
The Complet Ning Season
And the credits which include credits for a movie…although this is a TV show include:
The credit to Bruce Willis Die Hard 2
Based on novel 58 Minutes by Walter Wager
Www.Xthefiles.com
And then Roswell which seems allright, including correct spelling and actually referring to the correct show in its descriptions…until you get to the trademark line which reads:
Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation and related marks…etc. etc.
Do Chinese piraters not have English spell check, or not know any English speaking people???
Then there is of course the best of all. The Friends set which on the back has one big tag line and 10 season descriptions, which are as follows:
“Few of the original movie’s political and philosophical preoccupations (abortion, capitalism, patriotism, individualism) remain.” –Boston Globe, Wesley Morris
(please note that the pictures that accompany each season do not match the actual pictures from that season)
Season 1: Rules at Versailles.In the North of France,Prince de Conde has come up with a plan to get his province out of debt:he ll invite the king to his country chateau for a weekend of spectacle and merriment.if he can get back in the Kings good craces,his region can avoid econom disaster.The whole plan,and the prosperity of an entire province.
Season 2: (a whole paragraph in German, still with incorrect puncuation, and it doesn’t appear to be about Friends.)
Season 3: (again, all in German, and again, I don’t think it’s about Friends)
Season 4: (you guessed it…German. And what the hell is a kurzentcholossen?)

Season 6: The Fellowship has broken,but the quest to destroy the One Ring continues,Frodo and Sam must entrust their lives to Gollum if they are to find their way to Mordor.As Saruman s army approaches,the surviving members of The-earth,prepare for battle,The War of the Ring has begun.Nominated for six Acaemy Awards inclusing Best Picture.
(notice a trend of not talking about Friends here….?)
Season 7: Grave brings it!Producer Joel Silver and director Andrzej Brtkowiak.Who Fused martial arts with hip-hop stle in Romeo Must Die and Exit Wounds,take it to the next level with Cradle 2 the Grave.Starring as rivals-trned-partners in a volatile street war ignited by kidnapping.stolen black diamonds and a sadistic crimelord.Kelly HU and Gabrielle Union flex beauty and strength as foex destined for a clawdown And Anthony Anderson and Tom Arnold add comedy james.
