All 33 subtitle files in one download.
FROM AUDIO TO UNDERSTANDING
Multiple transcriptions.
One carefully reconciled subtitle track.
The films were transcribed using Grok alongside ElevenLabs, OpenAI, and Gemini. Multiple recognition results gave Grok alternatives to compare when the speech was difficult to understand.
Grok 4.7 compared the transcripts and selected wording for the final English SRT files, with attention to technical terms, line breaks, and time to finish reading.
Grok 4.7 translated the English subtitles into ten additional languages, then reviewed each language across all three films for meaning and consistency. Translations retain the English timing.
AN HONEST NOTE These are AI-produced subtitles. Some unclear speech and fast radio exchanges remain imperfect. They have not been independently reviewed by a human translator.
