Meh. Not the full version.

What does amuse me with Das Boot and other films is the various translations of the German. For example, in the DVD I have, when the news of the convoy comes through which eventually results in them running into that single destroyer (you know where I mean), the engineer flames off some fuel, and someone from up the front walks through and in one version says:

"What a way to waste fuel, eh?"

and in tonights version says:

"Having fun down here?"

Make up your minds!!!
