It is a little annoying to get something translated like that in your own country to an audience you would expect to speak your language. It would be fine in a heavily American tourist area I suppose but even then it should be specified that it was done. I think it’s unfortunate that many places are losing their roots due to globalization but sadly that’s how it’s going to be for a while. I think we may push back against some of this but how much is yet to be seen.
Yeah, the movies are for us but they put such things. This is why I only watch local movies on streaming services now and on YouTube. Those that don't have hard subs.
The people watching movies are not even foreigners. It's not even an international film fest. Ugh.
Imho It's not globalization that's the problem. It's colonial mindedness. We can do globalization without such actions but no, welcome to the Philippines. Always trying to please the "lords" of the nation instead of giving respect to its own culture and people. 😂 🙄
Thanks for translating for me :D

Yeah that’s also annoying. I guess some people are always trying to accommodate others and before you know it, you lose yourselves entirely!
EXACTLY! Ah life...
