Domestic research:

Translation studies have always been implemented since the very beginning of the translation activities in history, and the translation activities began from the need of human#8217;s communication. According to the recorded, our country has four translation activities: the scriptures translation of Buddhist from the Han dynasty to the tang and song dynasties, science and technology, religious translation of late Ming and early Qing dynasty, the literary translation from the late Qing dynasty to before the founding of the PRC, and various genres translation since the founding of new China, especially since the reform and opening-up, most of the western translation theories have been introduced, which greatly promote the development of domestic translation studies. Domestic translators learn from western theories and excavate the essence of Chinese traditional translation, which bring about an unprecedented prosperity in domestic translation research. Such as a foreign language teaching and research press 'translation studies' (1984), the commercial press 'the translation analects' (罗新璋编,1984), 'new translation (1983-1992)' (杨自俭、刘学云编,1994), ' the thoughts of translation '(许钧,1998) #8220;culture and translation#8221;(郭建中, 2000), and so on. Just a few years, the translation studies has been developing rapidly, and the new ideas, new research results emerge in endlessly. Wang Zuoliang(王佐良)pointed out in #8220;the cultural comparison in translation#8221; that the several large-scale activities of translation in the history , all related to social and cultural factors.

Film title translation, as an important part of film translation, is an important and creative task. However, film title translation has not gained enough attention like the literary translation ,(钱绍昌, 2000)'Chinese people watch TVmore than people reading literary works, but the studies of literary translation gained much more attention than film translation'. Therefore, the studies of film translation are lag behind .

Zhang Boran and Jiang Qiuxia (张柏然、姜秋霞)think that translation should be based on language, culture and way of thinking, combined with the method of scientific and humanistic care in the process of bilingual transformation. Xu Yuanchong (许渊冲2000)in ' new translation theory in new century ' put forward that' translation is the competition between two languages, even between the two cultures'. As we can see film titles translation is not only the change of language, but also the exchange and collision of two different culture. Wang Kefei(王克非) put forward to strengthen the translation studies of the cultural history, and explored the function and influence of the culture by translation , and conditionality of translation by culture. Wang Ning (王宁,1998)in 'the translation studies of context of culture ' pointed out that translation studies should be included in the current cultural study, which focused on the popular culture and mass media. Wang Dongfeng(王东风,2009)discussed the influence of several cross-cultural factors in the translation process, such as national culture、aesthetic standard、 political culture and ethical values, which revealed the ' According to the time of the accepting state of culture, all aspects of the culture will work in the process of translation with different degree,and the logic of the translator and language options of the translator '.( 郭建中)Guo Jianzhong believed that both foreignization and domestication translation strategy involves the cultural factors in the translation process, 'considering the different translation purpose, text type, the intention of the author and the reader, the two methods can complete their mission in the target language culture, and have its value of existence'.
