A film translated from English to French...then to German, then French again, and then back into English - using Babelfish.
The result is amusing.

Their grammar is still better than most posts I see around the web. Ofcourse, I'm not referring to Fazed... ofcourse not. *cough*
"how i always say it, his hole is quite fine good? Eh?
For some reason I was reminded of Backstroke of the West, the english/chinese/english translation of Revenge of the Sith.

Pretty amusing film, took me a second to realise what was going on.
I thought they would be actually speaking those languages. *kicks self*

The idea is great. Trying to follow both lines of dialogue hurts my brain.

We did an exercise just like this in my computational linguistics class. Each group got to pick the tranlated languages and select what lines they used. My group absolutely butchered a scene from Goodfellas that was English-->Dutch-->Japanese-->English. Jumping across languages with different roots really fucks it up.

i had hours of fun doing this exact kind of thing to my english homeworks. there was some combination of languages (mostly scandinavian) which would turn every instance of the word "and" into "duck" never did work that out...

It is a my fattening which it even treatment learns. As that was quite considerable it is also in the trough. I find however ungerad which they would present an English piece supposedly in French is that for a film celebration, a piece, such as that is, however would not be given better for the film celebration of Edinburgh?

The word "and" translates into "duck" from norwegian, swedish and danish. But as you probably were translating
into a scandinavian language, and then out again, it shouldn't mess up like that. Maybe "and" was missing from the dictionary...
That was brillant. It's not often you find an origanal video.

Clever concept. The acting and production were amateur at best, but the concept was good.
