Wolverine leaks a torrential downpour

Wolverine's mad 'cause you pirated his movie.

Wolverine's mad 'cause you pirated his movie

Wolverine has escaped from 20th Century Fox's secret labs and is rampaging across bit-torrent sites. The bootleg of the film, a spin-off from the blockbuster X-Men comic book franchise, may be missing the score and many special effects, but it's available a month before the premier, in near-DVD quality, without watermarks or a time code.

Reports claim  that it's an early workprint, at least 10 minutes shorter than the release, and that action sequences may be "less gory" than in the final version.

Rod Extreme! Ocean’s Thirteen mis-subtitled

Ocean’s Thirteen co-star David PaymerEngrish in translation
Ocean's Thirteen: pirated in Germany, subtitles added for Chinese and Korean street markets... and bizarrely in English.

Dig this scene, in which David Paymer (as a quality reviewer) tries to get a table at the casino's Italian restaurant -- it's almost intelligible.

Actual Subtitled
Paymer: Hello Hello
I'd like a table for one I want to set a table
I hear your risotto is tremendous I heard you were pretty good here
Host: It is tremendous really this is the President
The name on the reservation? minute I saw no one set it down
Paymer: I'm a walk in. I was in here
Host: I'm sorry, sir, I can't accommodate you. Excuse me, Mr. I can not provide to you.
(Paymer looks around at empty tables)
Host: Those are reserved how that
May I recommend one of our other restaurants? Why not consider other restaurant?
Ling Su, Cantonese-inspired Szechuan cuisine very delicate environment
sexy hospitality
Paymer: Great Rod extreme

Shortly afterwards, the subs degrade into meaningless non-sequiturs, when the dialogue gets confusingly techspeaky during a telephone call between Brad Pitt ("Rusty Ryan") and Don Cheadle ("Basher Tarr"):

Actual Subtitled
Ryan: Yeah? Take it easy. What's the problem? I was out what happened
Tarr: The tri-code optimizer that feed into the nipple-sleeve receivers perforated their lubricating bladders and began pressing against the sidewalls. could not believe
This is simply arbitrary shape
We must re-ordering
Do you think it
Picture a knee, but without any cartilage, bone on bone I pulled right
optimistic about the waiters
There's a shearing effect with alloy of a different density or grade This is no different from
Rod extremely waiter
Ryan: Becomes magnetized, reverse polarization, I know. Where does that put us? Do not panic waiter
I just do not see
Tarr: Cattled really fucking

Leastwise the translator got the gist of "cattled."
