The result: Your ability to read and use over 3000 of the most commonly used Chinese characters. (This program is also used by Dr. Schmidt, Ph.D to teach Chinese to his students in Africa. Dr. Schmidt has authored over 20 books and textbooks in the fields of Chinese Studies, Linguistics, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chinese and African Studies and Cultures, and Religious Studies and Theology. More on him below...) Let's Take a Quick Peak at the 9 New Movies (10 Movies Total)... PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL THE INFO IN THE ABOVE VIDEO NOW APPLIES TO ALL 10 (TEN) MOVIES LISTED BELOW: *NOTE: Spring in a Small Town (the original movie in this program) is available for download (with my embedded special subtitles) in the download section, and available with different subtitles combinations.

View the flashcards anywhere for constant practice. Chinese Character Writing Worksheets. Choose your style, print them out and practice writing all the Chinese characters used in the movie. Even if you don't plan on writing Chinese, writing practice helps you remember the characters more easily. Dialog transcript of the entire movie. This can save you time if you simply want to read the movie dialog and don't feel like watching the movie (which can take longer) Glossary of words for the entire movie (includes Chinese, Pinyin, and English).

WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT LCFM? 6 years ago I came to Shanghai on a teaching assignment, planned to go straight back to Canada after I finished, but got sucked into the whole Chinese culture, decided to stay and learn Chinese. I tried to learn Chinese at reputable universities here in Shanghai (Donghua Da Xue, Hua Dong Shi Fan Da Xue), I tried tutors, and I bought a few online/DVD Chinese Learning programs. None of these methods worked for me. Studying seemed more like a chore - writing characters over and over again, memorizing vocabulary lists. Nothing was sticking - there had to be a better way. My university classmates, even after studying Chinese for 2 years could not even hold a conversation with a native Chinese speaker. The courses are so drawn out. I mean, really, 2,3,4 or more years to learn a language? I don't think so. They never mention that: LEARNING LANGUAGES FROM MOVIES IS THE MOST POWERFUL AND FASTEST WAY TO LEARN A LANGUAGE. Chinese language classes are just textbooks and teachers. What a great way to turn you OFF a language. Instead of getting bored in a classroom, why not get excited and watch a movie with... UNIQUE, INTUITIVE SUBTITLES THAT WILL HELP YOU LEARN CHINESE RAPIDLY. How do other parts of the world learn English? That's right, through Hollywood/American movies. I remember meeting this one Chinese guy named Rocky who had the best English I've ever heard. How did he learn his English? From Al Pacino movies! The guy swore a bit too much, but other than that it was flawless! So, doesn't it make sense that we can learn Chinese through Chinese movies? You bet it does! WOULDN'T THOSE EXPENSIVE INTERACTIVE CHINESE LEARNING DVD PROGRAMS BE BETTER THAN MINE? Short answer - NO! Most online/DVD/CD programs I bought were way overpriced and were lacking in so many ways, it was unbearable and utterly unbelievable. Knowing what I know now... I WOULDN'T USE THESE "REPUTABLE" PROGRAMS EVEN IF THEY WERE FREE. WHY? All these "reputable" online/DVD/CD programs have one or all of these pitfalls: Foreigners (ie non-native Chinese speakers) speaking a Chinese dialogue with terrible tones (Learn Chinese from Movies - LCFM - has Chinese people with perfect tones!) Did not teach a single Chinese character, only Pinyin. (You actually learn Chinese faster if you learn Chinese characters - SEE BELOW) Didn't have a transcript of the dialogue. (LCFM has badass transcripts! see below) Only taught a few hundred words or characters (LCFM has over 1700 Chinese characters, see below!) Terrible animated dialogues, usually with 3$ computer microphone audio. (LCFM uses a badass movie instead! see below) "Interactive" programs have this so-called "Voice Recognition Software" that says if your pronunciation is "right" or "wrong". This software, however, can not distinguish between similar pinyin sounds like z-, zh-, j. So, basically, it's useless...unless terrible pronunciation is your goal. (LCFM shows your how to pronounce everything perfectly!) Did not have anything for learning "on-the-go" - ie, videos, flashcards for iPod/iPhone, PSP, etc. (LCFM does! See below!) Did not teach Chinese from a Chinese movie (LCFM uses 10 badass movies!) The Learn Chinese from Movies (LCFM) Program does NOT have any of the pitfalls of "reputable" DVD/CD/Online Products! Instead... the LCFM Program includes these features: LCFM teaches Chinese Characters because learning only Pinyin will slow you down. So many "pinyin-only-learners" look back in regret, knowing they should have started with Characters from the get-go. Chinese characters look intimidating, but they're not all all, as I will show you in this program LCFM has badass movie transcripts. To learn any language a transcript is a must, it jump starts your learning by pairing up visuals with audio - especially Chinese because of their very visual/pictographical writing system LCFM teaches you enough characters to read most of a Chinese newpaper - over 3000 characters (10 movies total)! This is more than Rosetta Stone, Fluenz, and Pimsleur combined! This program will teach you the 3,000 most commonly used Chinese characters and more. Also, reading body language, looking at gestures, and having decent audio - like from movies - is ideal when learning a language. LCFM will show you how to speak each word perfectly. LCFM program is the only one on the market that uses a full-length Chinese movie (now 10 movies!), with "magical" subtitles that will learn Chinese FOR you. I don't mean to come across as this big "hater" - go ahead and try all these other "reputable" online/DVD/CD programs and see what you think. If you like them, that's great. But if you don't, maybe it's time to try something new. Anyways, my point is that during my Chinese learning road to "fluency" I realized that there were many downfalls in every method for teaching Chinese. I really like movies, and I really like learning Chinese. Why don't I just learn Chinese from movies? But, there's only one problem - I only knew a few Chinese characters (at that time) - the rest of the characters I simply couldn't read or pronounce. It'd be really cool if the movie had pinyin too. So I thought why don't I take a cool Chinese movie and add my own Chinese, Pinyin, and English subtitles. And that's what I did and it worked pretty well for me. But sometimes I forgot which Chinese character had which meaning and I didn't want to search in a dictionary every time I forgot a Chinese character. So I thought I'd go ahead and add a word-for-word (WFW) direct translation line. The Word-for-Word Direct Translation Line (see picture below) saves you HOURS of time. You do not need to use a dictionary to search for individual words! (Note: the WFW Translation line is currently only available in ONE movie - Spring in a Small Town. Currently working on the other ones.) Anyways, after I added these "magical" subtitles it looked like this: I did this for a few movies and then just watched the movies over and over again until I knew almost every word and every line of the movie. It absolutely SKYROCKETED my Chinese level. I could pick up those super-hot Chinese girls with non-existent-English with my new silky-smooth Chinese. I got job offers through my new Chinese friends at companies in Shanghai. Travelling through China was now a breeze and so much more enjoyable. Getting Chinese prices - for food, housing (buying and renting), maids, clothes - comes with good Chinese skills. You can basically live like a Chinese person- ie, super cheaply! You can save money and be efficient at the same. In general, my quality of life improved and I became much happier. Even if you just go to China often for business, your Chinese skills makes everything more enjoyable. So back to my story - my friend saw these videos I made on my computer with these "intuitive" subtitles one day and later convinces me to share these with some more people. I put a few videos on youtube. Before I knew it, some videos had received: over 180,000 views!!!!!! I was blown away. During the first year, a got a few hundred emails and lots of youtube comments as well as close to 200 Youtube users subscribed to my "channel" (If you're a youtube user, you'll know that this is quite a high number for a niche like this). People were leaving unbelievably nice comments and loved the whole "magic subtitles" concept (Chinese, Pinyin, WFW, English subtitles) and wanted more. Here's an email from Dave who just got to Shanghai: Hi there, just wanted to say thanks so much for putting together the subs for these movies. I've just moved to Shanghai and doing a lot of self-study, and I've found them incredibly helpful. They've really helped me a lot with my speaking and listening skills. I feel like I'm picking up the language a lot more because of what you've done. It's really empowering and really expands my world since English is very sparse here, and in many cases, nonexistent. Much, much appreciated. Cheers Dave Here's another from Youtube user crock703: This is a great way to passively studying language.. the educational videos get so boring. Here's another email I got from David (a different Dave!) who even wanted to help me make the product for free: Learning Chinese through watching movies is a great idea, and I have tried doing it myself. But without pinyin subtitles (I don't have time for hanzi) I don't learn much from the movies. I got an English transcript of a few Chinese movies (original version) and translated it into Chinese (with my tutor). I then tried to watch the movie but even though my translation was good it was not very close to the actual dialogue in Chinese. I am glad someone else has taken up the challenge, and am happy to support your efforts at least through purchasing the product. Tell me if there is any other way I can help out. Dave Here's an email from Kevin (who also bought the DVD) who also wanted a DVD to watch while on the couch with Pinyin subtitles. He also brings up a good point about watching Chinese movies in the theatre: Hi Darren, For myself, the product I would really like is DVDs with pinyin subtitles, like what you have on your site already, but a full DVD so I can sit on the couch get comfortable on watch the whole thing. Also pinyin transcripts of the movies would even be great with the characters and english would be great too. so you can read the transcipts before you watch the movies, then when we watch the movie you dont even need the pinyin subtitles on the screen and just focus on building up your skill to watch the movies like you would have, say in a theater. Best, Kevin McKenzie Here is a screen shot of the Youtube Channel comments from some of my loyal subscribers: I didn't really want to go through the trouble of creating this program, I wanted just continue teaching high school math and travelling in Asia on my holidays. But the emails just kept coming. So I had a choice to make - either change email addresses (which I really hate doing) or create this program (and make some money, ha). So I chose to create the program. I had never created this kind of program before. It was quite a challenge and took me about half a year to complete. All the while... I kept getting emails from people asking me when the program will be completed, such as this one from a guy named Mark: How's the program coming. I'm ready to be your first customer. No rush. i just wanted to make sure you didn't forget. With such positive feedback, I believe this program was decent and believe it can really help all you Mandarin Chinese learners out there. Keep in mind, I'm not some sort of professional Chinese teacher. This program, however, is used by Dr. Schmidt, Ph.D to teach Chinese to his students in Africa. Dr. Schmidt has authored over 20 books and textbooks in the fields of Chinese Studies, Linguistics, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chinese and African Studies and Cultures, and Religious Studies and Theology.
