A more useful, and possibly on-topic, question might be "what information sources are available for looking up the availability dates of particular films?" – moberley Nov 17 '10 at 16:01

How can I find the title of "Gone with the Wind" in German?

I don't think this has anything to do with movies in particular. And after hearing 'scheisse passiert', I never want to see any movie dubbed! – Ivo Flipse Jun 15 '10 at 12:38
Another question that is quickly answered with IMDB or Wikipedia. – BlaM Jun 19 '10 at 15:20

Is Netflix a good service to use to get movies?
added by Michael Todd Jun 4 '10 at 15:04
link
You'll get 10 "Yes" and 10 "No" answers. The system is not meant to rate stuff. – BlaM Jun 19 '10 at 15:19
You might actually get 200 yes and 220 no answers, and yet it would not really mean Netflix is bad service... – nik Jun 19 '10 at 16:10
plus you'll get 10 "yes it is probably great but I live in {country} that doesn't support this and that sucks!" - Canada for one... – scunliffe Jul 6 '10 at 23:51

Subjective/argumentative. Not much point asking it. It should be reworded and more specific. For instance, "How does Netflix compare to <other movie service> in terms of value for money?". In that sense, it's an off-topic question. – Rahul Aug 23 '10 at 15:03
