English, maybe, but you should see about half of our Finnish dubs. Jesus Christ the Despicable Me 2 commercials are painful to watch because of the terrible voice acting. I'm so glad that the first movie they showed on TV was only subbed.
Well we're talking about English dubs, and I myself, preferring to watch dub over sub, haven't seen any real problems with the dubs, I mean I do have some nit-picky problems with the English dubs, but they all make sense, so in the end I don't mind. One of the nit-picky problems I have is that they do change the script a bit as to not confuse English speaking viewers, so like we discussed earlier, they called onigiri donuts in Pokemon, two completely different things, and I've almost never seen any honorific usage outside of sensei and honorifics are used very often in Japanese speaking.
