Dialogue

A: Qual você prefere, filme estrangeiro dublado ou legendado?
B: Sabe, depende dos atores, seria muito difícil, por exemplo, substituir a voz de Morgen Freeman.
A: Sei, imagina Darth Vader em outra voz que não seja James Earl Jones.
B: Mas confesso que as vezes não entendo quando falam em inglês.
A: E com os legendados é duro ter que ler tudo.
B: É por isso que até prefiro filme brasileiro.
A: É uma pena que Sean Connery não fale o português.
B: “Um Martini, batido, não mexido”
