This is a brilliant way of getting your own scripts for Chinese:

Essentially, just download the subtitles from shooter.cn, open them up in Word and follow the instructions to get rid of all but the script (you can keep the timings if you want, as well). Doing this, you can compile your own scripts in a matter of minutes.

Sorry, replied to the earlier post without seeing this one….but have you made any progress with finding the subtitles?

I had earlier pointed you to subom.com but I now see that I was wrong, that only has the translated versions from the english movies, not the actual scripts from the dubbed ones – which often are entirely different!

I’ve been searching for things like 狮子王国语版字幕 with no luck, so maybe the scripts have not been put on the internet. Which would be a damn shame 🙁

– These guys may have those magic Word files of dialog for which we so thirst…thirst…thirst…Durst (dude, German just sounds thirstier). –

Don’t wanna be nosy, but it’s ‘dürsten’ (duersten) in these circumstances instead of ‘Durst’.

quendidil; maybe Khatz used Skype (or any other VoIP operator), which is actually quite cheap.

Good luck, Katz! I doubt the translation companies will be of help — they almost certainly can’t give you the translations without Disney’s written approval — but they can probably point you in the right direction (and it’s worth trying nonetheless).
