So say, someone lives in an English speaking country and wanna see a movie in the threaters but they struggle to understand English, how are they supposed to watch it?

I’m talking about like subtitles… So my mom want me to “do something” to fix my depression… so I say okay let’s see a movie then… But she sucks at English comprehension and my dad barely understand a word… We’re in the US… (Philly area) They need Chinese subtitles… So this is just a situation that you can’t fix? Shit outta luck?

Have you tried looking for a theater that does Chinese subtitles?

It’s a thing that exists, you might find it in a populated area but it’s not super common.

You could also find a Chinese movie with English subtitles, that’s probably a lot more common

If you’re in Philly, there may be something in the Chinatown area, or maybe someone there can give you options so your mom can enjoy a movie out with you. I hope you find a solution.

That said, you should go see Project Hail Mary, it’s fantastic. Maybe take a friend if you don’t want to go alone, but I’ve gone to movies by myself plenty of times and I would have gone alone to this one if I hadn’t dragged my partner to opening weekend.
