Anybody have a place to view Spanish movies, documentaries online with English subtitles?

occassionally, I have found some good stuff, but I am sure I am missing tons.

Got turned on to two good language sites -livemocha and spanishdict.com

gracias

Subtitles are a GREAT way to improve your language while watching a movie. Of course DVDs are and excellent tool. I liked to watch US movies, change the language to Spanish and use Spanish subtitles.

One of the silly things I found is that the person who translated the movie for the actors to deliver the lines in not the same person who translated the movie for subtitles. And they don't compare translations so subtitles do not match the dialogue of movies which were originally presented in English.

I have maybe 15 DVDs here and when we watch one as a family I always put on English subtitles which help them understand the dialogue since their English isn't perfect.

The internet is loaded with free / pirated content. I am sure there are tons of places that have what I am looking for ... I just thought one of you guys might have a lead on them.

Contribute if you can.

I will find some resources and make a post too.
