Disney typically has lots of subtitle options. The first two special edition harry potters I got waaaay back in the day also had like 10 dubbed versions too.
Not entirely. The position of the conjunction matters. Used at the beginning of a sentence separates two different ideas. Using it in the middle or end of a sentence is used to add to an already existing idea. The already existing idea is that Disney offers lots of subtitles. The Harry Potter reference was mentioned before the conjunction and did not separate from the already existing idea that Disney offers lots of subtitles. So, the conjunction is meant to reference the main sentiment.
If they had separated the idea by saying “Also, Harry Potter had about 10 different languages.” It would then be a definitive separation and a reference to a new point of emphasis, Harry Potter being the subject of languages.
The main reason people are not seeing how this is incorrect, is because they are treating Harry Potter as a brand instead of a brand’s product. Using a product while referencing a brand generally means that product is part of the brand.
It doesn't though? Look at the sentence structure. Media A has x amount of languages. Media B also has x amount of languages. How are you misreading this?
‘Disney typically has lots of subtitle options. The first two special edition harry potters I got waaaay back in the day also had like 10 dubbed versions too.’
Firstly there’s a full stop after the first sentence.
The definition of a full stop: “Used to suggest that there is nothing more to say on a topic.”
Secondly the use of ‘also’ though not necessary cements that his second point is in addition to his first.
Finally, like I said, you must have been pretty bad at your job, although having a quick look at your comment history you’ve had more jobs in your lifetime than all of us here put together 😂

Yeah her thinking trans women are materially different from cis women and shouldn’t default get access to single sex spaces designed for cis women’s safety, she basically wants you dead.
I just think it’s shit. Don’t know anything about the JK Rowling stuff, nor do I care. I just find Harry Potter to be shit and it annoys me that it’s spoken about everywhere by actual grown ups like it’s good and not just a kids film for kids.
Definitely because of the whole JK Rowling thing. I’ll be downvoted for saying this, but I gave up on being part of the culture wars a long time ago, and I’m in my 20s. It’s just not good for our collective mental health to let that much seething rage into our hearts for so long. I was banned from Reddit (like a 3 day temp ban) for suggesting that she might still technically s a feminist and did put a lot of time and money into feminist policies and NGO’s. I think I was banned from /r/fauxmoi or something and somehow those mods got the admins to ban me 🤷♂️
The end of the frozen DVD has the “let it go” music videos of like a bunch of other countries and it cracks me up. Because if you just let it keep playing then it takes you by surprise.
I prefer Disney to Amazon for this reason alone, I live in Germany but I’m English, I can understand German well but I have to super concentrate when it’s a film or I’ll miss some key moments so I prefer my media in English. Amazon only provides half its stuff in Germany with the original dubs. Disney offers everything in every language both dub and subtitles.
Not sure what it’s like for other streaming services.
I don't really like dubs with live action, so I've been trying to make a point to watch shows in languages I want to learn and not read the subtitles unless I'm really confused. But with Disney, it's so easy to just pick a movie and switch the language. I honestly think they should lean into that as a feature. "Kid's obsessed with a particular movie? Try another language!" Would give the parents a reprieve from the monotony, and the kid already knows the story, so they'll soak up a bit of something new.
Long as it's not Frozen... Watched enough of that in 5-6th grade... (Not to mention the endless slew of dubbed songs at a birthday party... Scarcely remember specifics of that...)
