Abstract
As an important means of cultural transmission, film plays an important role in the communication and exchange of cultures. Since the reform and opening up policy of China, amount of Hollywood movies have been imported to Chinese film market, and a wild range of audience were attracted to watch them, but only few audiences are competent English speakers, so subtitle translation began to play a vital role in foreign language movies. However, as an uncommon translation form, subtitle translation brings translators a real big challenge. The traditional full translation can not satisfy the audience any more, thus, the translation variation gradually entered the public view. The application of translation variation in film translation brings a significant effect in translation field. This thesis aims to take the Avengers series for example to compare the official subtitle translation with official subtitle translation from the perspective of translation variation.
