An English translation of Ken Watanabe‘s dialogue in that Flags of Our Fathers/Letters From Iwo Jima Japanese trailer that went up yesterday. It’s obvious that Watanabe, playing a real-life general named Tadamichi Kuribayashi, is giving his troops some kind of threatening pep talk, but here’s a Wells-edited version of what he’s probably saying: “For the sake of our country, regardless if you’re the last soldier, our mission is to kill the enemy on this island. Keep in mind you can never go back to the homeland.” And then the titles supposedly read, “Never forget the heroes of Iwo Jima — Japan and United States — each country√ɬ¢√¢‚Äö¬¨√¢‚Äû¬¢s story — Academy Award-winning director Clint Eastwood — Flags of Our Fathers, 10.28.06 — Letters from Iwo Jima, 12.9.06″
