The 2. 8 Funniest English- Spanish Movie Title Translations. I love the Spanish- speaking world. Watch Seven Sisters Online Mic on this page. Beer is cheaper than water, the nightly news theme songs would probably make our top 4. But these guys need to hire someone else to translate movie titles.

English original:        Grease. Spanish translation: Vaselina. English meaning:      Vaseline.

In any other part of the world this would be an adult film. Speaking of which…__________________________English original:        Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Spanish translation: ¿Hacemos Una Porno? English meaning:      Shall We Make a Porno? A little forward. Maybe we could start with a drink?__________________________English original:        Weekend at Bernie’s. Spanish translation: Este Muerto Está Muy Vivo.

English meaning:      This Dead Person is Very Alive. Gracias Señor Capitan Obvio.__________________________English original:        Thelma & Louise. Spanish translation: Un Final Inesperado. English meaning:      An Unexpected Ending. Powermove. Take the film’s best scene and make it the title. I think they also translated Basic Instinct as A Glimpse of Pubes.__________________________English original:        Mrs.

Doubtfire. Spanish translation: Papá Por Siempre. English meaning:      Dad Forever. Yep. Even if your dad dresses in drag and sets his fake boobs on fire, he’s still your dad. Forever.__________________________English original:        Fist of Legend. Spanish translation: Jet Li es el Mejor Luchador. English meaning:      Jet Li is the Best Fighter.

And here I was thinking that the best fighter might be one of his obscure co- stars like Chin Siu- ho or Shinobu Nakayama. Way off.__________________________English original:        Die Hard.

Spanish translation: La Jungla de Cristal. English meaning:      The Glass Jungle. Poor ol’ Bruce. His wife wears enormous shoulder pads. Terrorists crash her Christmas party. And then he gets stuck in a fricking… glass jungle?__________________________English original:        Point Break.

Spanish translation: Le Llaman Bodhi. English meaning:      They Call Him Bodhi. They DO?! I HAVE to see this movie.__________________________English original:        Superbad. Spanish translation: Supercool. English meaning:      Supercool. So bad it’s cool.__________________________English original:        Home Alone.

Spanish translation: Mi Pobre Angelito. English meaning:      My Poor Little Angel. I’d have gone for My Poor Little Future Crack Addict.__________________________English original:       The Wedding Crashers.

Spanish translation: Los Caza Novias. English meaning:      The Bride Hunters. It’s a nice ‘casanova’ vs ‘hunter’ wordplay in Spanish. Still, it’s like they should be wearing safari suits.__________________________English original:       Jerry Maguire.

Spanish translation: Amor y Desafio. English meaning:      Love and Struggle.

Trying to pronounce the name ‘Jerry Maguire’ in Spanish is so hard it would break your face, but Love and Struggle? This could apply to pretty much any Rom- Com. Especially those involving Tom Cruise.__________________________English original:       The Help. Spanish translation: Historias Cruzadas.

English meaning:      Crossed Histories / Stories. Surely a movie involving someone literally eating shit could’ve been named something less snooze- inducing in Spanish?__________________________English original:       Taken. Spanish translation: Busqueda Implacable. English meaning:      Implacable Search. It’s got Liam Neeson torturing an Albanian human trafficker by plugging his thigh into the local power grid. Implacable, really. I also liked Implacable Search 2.__________________________English original:       Drillbit Taylor. Spanish translation: Un Guardespaldas Escolar.

English meaning:      A Scholarly/Scholastic Bodyguard. You say Drillbit Taylor. I say A Scholarly Bodyguard. Let’s call the whole thing off, because it’s a shit movie.__________________________English original:       Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Spanish translation: Experto en Diversion. English meaning:      Expert in Fun.

They’re right, that Ferris is an expert in having fun, so it’s not really his ‘day off’. He’s just honing his expertise.__________________________English original:       The Debt. Spanish translation: Al Filo de la Mentira. English meaning:      To The Edge of the Lie. This film doesn’t mess about.

It takes us right to the edge. Of the lie. Wait, what?__________________________English original:        Saw. Spanish translation: Juego Macabro. English meaning:      Macabre Game. They could’ve just called this one ‘Sierra’ (‘Saw’), but that would’ve been too easy. Any film involving a guy sawing his own foot off must really be called ‘Macabre Game’.__________________________English original:       Horrible Bosses. Spanish translation: Quiero Matar a Mi Jefe.

English meaning:      I Want to Kill My Boss. See that character’s motivation? Let’s make it the film’s title.__________________________English original:       Larry Crowne. Spanish translation: El Amor Llama Dos Veces. English meaning:      Love Calls/Knocks Twice. Not Larry Crowne?

Not even Lorenzo Corona? ‘Love calls/knocks twice’ is a Spanish idiom for those moments when you get a second chance in love. It is also a crap movie.__________________________Having read the Spanish title there’s no need to see the film; it’s about a dude who had 8 minutes before dying. Pretty sure they also translated The Sixth Sense as Bruce Willis is a Ghost.__________________________English original:       Brokeback Mountain. Spanish translation: Secreto en la Montaña.

English meaning:      Secret in the Mountain. So what’s the ‘secret’? Did I miss something? Were those sheep stolen? Was that ranch- owner not paying his taxes? Oh right…__________________________English original:       Lost in Translation.

Spanish translation: Perdido en Tokio. English meaning:      Lost in Tokyo. Fail.__________________________English original:        The Hangover.

Spanish translation:  ¿Qué Pasó Ayer? English meaning:      What Happened Yesterday? A segment from Play School?

No. Hookers and roofies.__________________________English original:         It’s Complicated. Spanish translation:  Enamorado de mi Ex. English meaning:       In Love With My Ex. Meryl Streep is in love with her ex in this movie.  So they called it… wait for it… In Love With My Ex.  Genius.  Absolute genius.___________________________English original:        Up In The Air. Spanish translation:  Amor Sin Escalas. English meaning:       Love Without Stopovers. It’s a direct love- flight for George.

No stopovers.__________________________English original:        Grown Ups. Spanish translation:  Son Como Niños. English meaning:       They Are Like Children. In Spanish there’s an easy phrase for kids who act like adults (crecidos or creciditos) but not the other way round.

About time they invented one I reckon.____________________________English original:        Snakes on a Plane. Spanish translation:  Terror a Bordo.

English meaning:       Terror on Board. Are these guys just messing with us?  By giving this film even a vaguely respectable title, they probably cut ticket sales by 7.
