I thought I knew this movie almost word for word, but I'm already stuck on the first line.

在其他新闻方面太平洋核子研究所

郑重否认外界谣传钚元素

“钚元素窃案?”于两星期前自储藏室中遭窃一事

一个利比亚恐怖组织声称此事为其所为

而有关单位则将此次意外归咎于单纯的笔误

In other news, officials at the Pacific Nuclear research facility...

...have denied the rumor that a case of missing plutonium...

...was in fact stolen from their vault two weeks ago.

A Libyan terrorist group had claimed responsibility for the alleged theft.

However, officials now attribute the discrepancy to a simple clerical error.

FBI目前仍在调查此事并拒绝发表评论

The FBl, which is investigating the matter, had no comment.

[Lines 2 and 3 are faded out in the movie and difficult to hear and they're not in the English subtitles, but I think it's:

Yesterday, a wooden box containing 12 packets of cocaine was found on the Florida coastline.]

Doc?

Hello, anybody home?

爱因斯坦,过来

怎么搞的?天哪

Just out of interest, is anyone benefiting from this? Or was it a silly idea? ;)

Ah the first 2 lines are headlines from a newspaper clipping, following by a radio broadcast.

"Brown Mansion Destroyed"

"Brown Estate Sold To Developers"

October is inventory time.

So right now, Statler Toyota is making
the best deals of the year...

...on all 1985-model Toyotas.

It's not random, it's every line in order from the movie.

You probably need to be familiar with the movie really. The idea of the group is to have one topic for each movie and cover the whole movie but 5 lines at a time for easy digestion.

Continuing...

Einstein, come here, boy.

What's going on? God.

Jesus!

That is disgusting.

Hi bazza,

I now know what this thread is for. Let me post some advice.

布朗大宅付之一炬 (be set on fire)  This is a chengyu.

快来(come hurry)位于(located at)市中心(downtown)的史岱勒丰田汽车

欲购从速(if you want to buy, come as soon as possible) This is a set phrase for sale.

优惠活动(sale)仅到月底为止 (only until the end of this month) You often see the similar phrase such as 今天到此为止  (That's all for today).

Marty, is that you?

Doc. Where are you?

Thank God I've found you. Meet me at Twin Pines Mall tonight at 1:15.

I've made a breakthrough. I'll need your assistance.

1:15 in the morning?

怎么回事,你一个礼拜跑哪去了

你的电器开了整个礼拜

我的电器?我想到了

These films are some of my all time favourites, but I am not sure I get the point.  Is there somewhere I could try to listen to the Chinese soundtrack before we get into the line by line translation.

I don't think it's actually been dubbed in Chinese, even the Chinese dvd only has English and Japanese audio.

What's going on? Where you been all week?

Working. Is Einstein with you?

Yeah, he's right here.

You left your equipment on all week.

My equipment? That reminds me....

Hi bazza,

I don't think that your thread is not so interesting, but the problem is that I don't understand where these texts come from. I must say that just presenting some sentences randomly doesn't attract many people. Please upload your posts systematically.
