on my shaun dvd, the subtitles will not come off-ne1 else experiencing this?? my brain cannot handle trying to watch the film, and trying to listen to the commantry whilst reading the subtitles.

dont anyone say-"dont read the subtitles then." its jus not pysically possible!

yes i have this problem but i solved after finding out that pressing subtitle on my control for ages didnt work you have to physically go back to the options menu and just go to all off but if u cant then sorry i cant help you and it was pointless me telling my story sorry! lol

cant say i have that problem, although when im watching a film i usualy turn the subtitles on anyway!Dunno why just a little habbit ive gotten into from watching films late at night!

ne1, isn't that a postcode?

i have this problem too with my dvd. even if i go to the menu and turn them off it doesn't work. i really want to sort it out - anyone know how to fix it?

maybe you got a bad batch

I had a weird experience with the subtitles also. They appeared out of nowhere and I couldn't turn them off. I think I went to the disk menu to shut them off. However, afterwards I couldn't get them on again. I think there is something amiss with these disks.

They're alright with me.

same here. hope theres some hope put there for us!

Yeah, same ting.

I actually felt the subtitles benefitted the film a little, because there's always line's you can't quite hear. Not only that, but I'm sure not everyone would have known that the starting music was 'Ghost Town' or the music on the bus was 'Zombie Nation', etc - little quirks I suppose.

No problems here, on either my old DVD player or my new one...

Yeah, this was happening at my friend's at the weekend, it was driving us bonkers trying to switch them off - nothing worked, couldn't even select the Zomb-O-Meter, just the regular subtitles stayed on. The subtitles even were going on and off too fast to read!

I think it's her player, never had a problem on my expensive player or cheapy player.

I normally have subtitles on DVDs (and TV) too because I have buggered up my hearing from having my music too loud since the age of about 4. No regrets!

It pisses me off that the subtitles are different to the actual words, are all the same colour, and tend to pre-empt jokes before they arrive on screen.

try the good old fashioned turn off turn on routine.

My self and my mate ordered our copies at the sametime his had that problem but he just went into the subtitle menu and turned it off and no problems with it since then. Dont know if this makes a difference but he uses a PC DVD player.

my curb your enthusiasm series 2 always gives me finnish subtitles every time it starts up.

no probs with sotd though.
