I have been doing subtitling for almost a year now (after a long pause). I actually like it because I get to watch movies that are often still playing in the theaters. There are also other reasons why I like it, one of them being the challenge to fit the sentences into the allotted time and some other constraints that you don't usually have when translating a regular text.
