Yeah, they really, really seem to. Although, I did hear from a few American acquaintances that video rental shops actually had to inform customers with regards to movies like Pan's Labyrinth and Letters from Iwo Jima (they're the only two movies I can think of off-hand) that they had subtitles. Some people would then put said movies back :/ But hey, if you can't get along with reading subtitles for whatever reason, that's your choice.

It just really, really bugs me when you get people like the OP who seem to think that Japanese is the best language ever and that English can never compare. I speak both and you know what? I wouldn't say one is better than another. And ... you never get anyone saying 'French is better than-' or 'German is better than-' or even 'Chinese is better than-'. I don't get it. They're all languages.

Ohhh, yeah, the video store where I worked definitely had to do that. In fact, pretty much ANY movie that was in another language with subtitles, I just basically told people about it right up front whether I was told to or not. I was kind of sad that a majority of them put them back, but hey, it was their night out and their choice of what they wanted to watch. I'm more sad that there's no English-language option, really -- they're missing some great movies, though I can understand why.

Mostly I just don't hear people complaining about the fact that people don't want to watch subtitles of anything in any other language. Which... it's the exact same thing. Why is it different if it's Japanese? You're right, I don't ever see this kind of elitism with any other language, and it's really, really bizarre. I love the way Japanese sounds, but I love the way pretty much every foreign language sounds. O_o
