No. Why the thread? Did some reactionary heartland jagoff propose legislation along those lines or what?

Kevin's post is epic failure. Banning foreign films with no english dubbing violates the first amendment in so many different ways...

I wouldn't object to possibly requiring that DVD's offer optional subtitles in a country's official language, but frankly I can't see why the marketplace shouldn't be left to decide that issue.
The US has no official language.
