Lost In Translation

1)When something is translated into another language, and sometimes translated back into the original language, and because of differences of the languages some of the original meaning is lost.

2)Whenever someone re-does something in a new medium (for instance, a movie based on a book) and, due to differances between the mediums, some details and the original meaning is not present.

3)A movie that came out in 2003.
1)See larstait's post for a good example.

2)"Did you like the new Harry Potter movie?" asked Maria. "No," answered Sharon. "They couldn't include all the details that were in the book because then the movie would be too long. A lot of the characterization and subext was lost in translation."

3)I really liked Lost in Translation. And if you didn't, your opinion can't possibly be worth anything, you must be an idiot or a philistine. No, I didn't just imagine the subtext, it's there and it's very moving!

The Incredibles

A movie produced by Pixar that came out in American theaters November 5th, 2004. It was directed by Brad Bird and voiced by Craig T. Nelson and Holly Hunter. The main characters are Bob Parr and Helen Parr (also known as Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl) and their children Violet Parr, Dash Parr, and Jack Jack. They are all superheroes.
The Incredibles recieved rave reviews due to it's beautiful animation and action sequences, wonderful plot, better characterization than many adult films, humor, and general awesomeness. Some people say that it's not as good as Pixar's previous movie, Finding Nemo, but I think it is the best animated movie I have ever seen.

The history report was due on Monday so Maya cut corners by leaving out the time line.

Robert was supposed to run around the entire track but he cut corners by taking a shortcut and not going around the corners. (I believe this is where the term is derived from)
