Have a look at the above link. It has images of a English to Chinese to English translation/subtitle of Episode 3. Quite amusing :) E.g.

It's funny but I am highly dubious of the accuracy of the Chinese-to-English translation.

Dru it isn't just Chinese to English - it's English to Chinese to English, and obviously it isn't accurate or else we wouldn't be laughing. :p

Somehow, for some reason, "smelly boy" is my favorite :D.

"You two careful, he is a big!"

"Mr. Speaker, we are for the big."

:)

I also like how "Obi-Wan" apparently transliterates to "Ratio Tile" in Chinese.
