Henry9663 Posted November 29, 2014 at 12:05 PM Report Posted November 29, 2014 at 12:05 PM I am looking for Chinese subtitles for the film Lust, Caution. I don't mind if they are simplified or traditional, although simplified would be ideal. I also don't mind if I have to buy the actual film just to get the Chinese subtitles. Any ideas? Much obliged.

imron Posted November 29, 2014 at 11:20 PM Report Posted November 29, 2014 at 11:20 PM http://shooter.cn has a very comprehensive number of subtitles available in Chinese and would be a good place to start. Quote
gato Posted November 30, 2014 at 12:10 AM Report Posted November 30, 2014 at 12:10 AM Shooter.cn shut down a few weeks ago. It may be related to the recent crackdown on the online video industry. Quote
imron Posted November 30, 2014 at 01:23 AM Report Posted November 30, 2014 at 01:23 AM Wow, I downloaded stuff from there as recently as the 21st of this month. I was about to wonder if it was just a mainland China blockage, but visiting the site now there's a big note on the front page that they've shut down... Quote
TheBigZaboon Posted December 1, 2014 at 03:19 AM Report Posted December 1, 2014 at 03:19 AM To make your task even more complicated, it seems there are very different video versions of this movie out there, with different scenes either included or cut to satisfy the whims of the various censors in the Asian market. So keep in mind where you bought it when you search for subtitles. I think I remember hearing that there were five different version of Infernal Affairs, ostensibly because they thought different endings were more appropriate for different markets, although later, it may have had more to do with the makers realizing that there might be a market for sequels and spin offs.

Angelina Posted December 1, 2014 at 02:18 PM Report Posted December 1, 2014 at 02:18 PM Try Pirate Bay and check the subtitles before you download the torrent. All other sites seem to be down I wonder if you will catch the wordplay with the title and the ending. About Infernal Affairs, they were right about the market for spin offs, one of them even won an Academy Award. Quote
roddy Posted December 2, 2014 at 09:12 AM Report Posted December 2, 2014 at 09:12 AM Shooter.cn's down? Man, that's a shame... Quote
Henry9663 Posted December 2, 2014 at 10:28 AM Author Report Posted December 2, 2014 at 10:28 AM Thanks for your help, I went on an open subtitle site and managed to find subs for the complete version. I'm curious as to why the mainland version cut the sex scenes - given that they do not seem to conflict with any party ideology. Is this simply because of cultural sensitivities? Quote
Demonic_Duck Posted December 2, 2014 at 12:11 PM Report Posted December 2, 2014 at 12:11 PM It's because sex is immoral, didn't you get the memo? Quote

Demonic_Duck Posted December 3, 2014 at 12:39 PM Report Posted December 3, 2014 at 12:39 PM I may be from the netherworld, but I'm actually a very morally upstanding duck (no jokes about 鸭子, please). Quote
cepheid Posted February 16, 2015 at 12:30 PM Report Posted February 16, 2015 at 12:30 PM Sicne shooter.cn is down, now you can go to http://subhd.com/ to download subtitles. 3 Quote
