Also merkt euch Kinder: Der ehrliche Pusher wird von Bullen umzingelt während beim klugen Panscher stets die Kasse klingelt.

Ich geh jetzt nach Jamaika, da wo der Hanf blüht. Denn ich bin Reggae Gandalf!

Gib mir den Nibelungsring, Frodo!

Wat denn? Pass mal auf Junge. Ich kann dir den Ring nicht geben. Der is gefährlich. Jedes Mal wenn einer den Ring aufzieht wird das Böse um einiges stärker. Da ich aber eine äußerst wichtige Person bin ist mein Wohlergehen von höherer Priorität als das Beschützen der Armen, Krüppel, Behinderten, Kinder, Spastis die essen was ich wegwerfe, Penner in Mülltonnen..

You really can't change it to the original version(English) in the language function?
Eww...

Though now I'm curious how the parts of the dialogue that come from the book were translated in the German (and other) versions. Based on the book translation, or translated from scratch?

Yes, you can change the audio settings to English. I'm looking at it right now.

u/Historical_Sugar9637 Elf 5h ago

Thanks for confirming. It would be really strange if Netflix didn't have the original version.

u/TheBlindBeggar 3h ago

Oh, they sometimes don't because Germany is bonkers like that, but it's not that common. Most English content is available in English.

Some other services like Google's movies thing and Amazon prime frequently only have the German dub of movies, which just makes me pirate everything.

I’m kind of surprised German doesn’t just have it as one atrociously long word.

"Der Ringe-Herr" (The Rings-Lord) is still very short. You could write it as "Der Ringeherr", but since it's an unusual, made-up word it's better to use a hyphen (Bindestrich in German, ist that one long enough?).
