Does anyone know how to tell if I am Legend is using subtitles in Korean, or if it's been manglefied and overdubbed already?

Most of the 'western' movies I've seen here have had subtitles.

In fact, I have yet to see one dubbed.

The only movies that (sometimes) get dubbed in theaters are animation and cartoons (easier for kids?). Even those usually run a subtitled version for the late show rather than the dubbing.

I Am Legend certainly will not be dubbed.

How long have you been here? Live-action films (apart from the occasional kids film, which will always have the subtitles available as well on other showings) are never dubbed.

Today. Apparently, it's the first film to ever open simoultaniously in every market worldwide.

Edit: No, it's not.

Saw it last night. Definitely subtitled, and not a bad watch. Not nearly as good as 28 Days Later, but a somewhat worthy entry into the milieu of the post-apocalyptic. That is, if you can look past the heavily jingoistic subtext.

yes, I have always been a fan of post apocalyptic movies. 28 days (and weeks) later was good. I am taking the wifey on a date tonight. We are goign to go and watch this movie; we've been wanting to see it.

Edit: Good stuff! A movie well-worth watching.
