The other day, Yousuf got an American version of a Thomas the Tank Engine DvD.. I played it on the player and a few minutes later he was like “Hatha mo 7ila mabbiiii” (That is not good I don’t want it) . I was wondering what it could be and my only guess is that he doesn’t like the american narrator because when I played one of his other DVDs narrated by Ringo Starr, he was beaming!

I always wonder WHY they do that. For example, ‘Thomas’ is British, WHY do they have to change the narrator for an American Audience? It’s the same language, just the accent. Also, ‘Little Einisteins’ on the Disney channel, it’s American, WHY do they change it on UK’s Playhouse Disney? Why do the Europeans dub American films?! Is it because they don’t want to learn a new language or subtitles isn’t enough? Ok some people may need it but generally speaking, I find it odd! Can you imagine a Hollywood movie dubbed into Kuwaiti? looool imagine! Which reminds me of the Disney films and cartoons dubbed in Eygptian!

I am all for keeping everything original as it is.
