Abstract

With the deepening of economic globalization and the widespread dissemination and popularization of films worldwide, films have become an important form of cultural exchange. During this cultural exchange process, subtitle translation is playing an increasingly significant role and has become one of the important methods for spreading different cultures. As time goes by and society progresses in China, foreign movies are being favored by more and more Chinese audiences. Thus, the translation quality and accuracy of it will absolutely influence information exchanges and cross-cultural communications. Therefore, this article will further study the translation strategies in movie subtitles based on multimodal discourse analysis theory, taking the proofread subtitles of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (The Hobbit 3) as an example. The study found that, based on the theoretical framework of multimodal discourse analysis, this subtitled translated version of The Hobbit 3 has been very well received for its flexible translation strategy and its use of different modalities in the movie to convey the message of the movie to the audience as much as possible, received highly praise and popularity.
