Does anyone know if it's possible to order DVDs of mainstream American movies online that include subtitles or dubbing in more languages? And if so, where? Sorry for the weird request, thanks in advance though.

Um, quite a lot of films come with dubs and subtitles. Just look at the back of the case. What language are you looking for?

ideally a way to list all dvds on amazon or something by what languages they include for subs or dubs (specifically korean to start with). i suggest amazon as an example to ensure it plays on a regular US player and that its a legit copy and not a boot. thanks!

Also, several of the big studios have released Spanish versions of Region 1 movies. The catch is that you have to look it up online using the Spanish titles translation. (ex. The Lion King- El Rey Leon)

You need a region free player and then you buy the mainstream American movies from Korea with Korean Suntitles and/or Dub. I don't think there are many Region 1 US DVDs with Korean subs, even though I think I have seen Warner Discs like that.


EDIT: DVD Empire has pretty good listings on the subtitles, the prices are not good but the listings are. I guess you can't have it all.
