Movies need to be distributed worldwide, but some foreign voices are better than others. I haven't heard that many myself, but out of the ones that I have heard, Bambi in Spanish was pretty good, the original Japanese version of Spirited Away was excellent, but I was expecting a little more from Balto in French. Maybe your native language sounds better, but it was hard to tell the voices apart. The English voices are very distinct from each other, and as soon as you hear them, you know who it is. In French, I couldn't tell Balto from Boris. What are some of your opinions on movie dubs?

Whaaat? :lol: They don't have the same voice at all...I never had any problem with that.
Seriously, I have always prefered the french dub for Balto instead of the original voices, they are much more "lively" than the american ones to me...I definitely think they did a better job when dubbing it.
Although, this is the opposite with the sequels, for which I prefer the original voices (especially for the songs, horrible in the french version of WoC).

I sometimes like to watch movies in other languages,it certainly is nice once in a while to watch a film while hearing it in another language,French for an example. :D

As an anime fan, issues with dub are everywhere. I hate most dub with a passion. Spirited away was translated exactly the same which is what has started to change my opinion. As far as voices go, yes they do suck every time they change languages :roll: Never seen a time when that doesn't happen to at least one character.
