I want to show the movie Wall Street in one of my classes. I can only find it on the net on the Youku, or Soku websites, and I have to pay to watch it there. I would consider paying since I had already started planning for the movie and now Im excited to do it, but I thought it was only 8 yuan at first, but I think its actually 40. I want to show the movie with Chinese subtitles. Does anybody know where to find it?

Ask a student to order it for you, or find out where the nearest DVD store is. Most western DVDs I've bought in China came with subtitles available in as many as a dozen subtitles.

Do you mean order it on Taobao? That's a good idea.

On Youku or Soku it has subtitles, but Im trying to find a way to watch it for free. Ordering it on Taobao is a good idea though because at least I'd have the DVD.

I used to have film nights with my friends. They were mostly Chinese, you can download a film from the web then use www.shooter.cn for the subtitles.

Nah, that site's only for subtitles. You download a film, look at the file's name, then find the corresponding subtitle. Put the subtitle file in the same folder as the film and you're good to go. If you want to put it on a DVD there are a few programs you can use, but I forget what they are - it's been so long since I've done it.

Thanks. How do I make sure that the film that I download and the subtitles will match precisely. You said look at the film's file name and find the corresponding subtitle; how do I do that? I already have the movie downloading, and I have a few Wall Streets pulled up on the subtitles site; how do I make sure they match?
