Not to mention I have to stop most modern subtitled films, ten plus times, just to read all the sentences that sometimes only flash a half second on the screen.

I highly respect the vocal delivery of good actors, still, some voice actors are better. Either way, I prefer english films, and I'll watch the occasional subtitled film, but most of the time, I prefer a dud over subtitles.
I read really fast so I don't miss anything with subtitles. I hate dubs. It always seems off to me.
