Hi Anna - after I shared this post, @strongxu on Twitter commented:

actually i think some translations are very good. like "there will be blood" 血色将至 "no country for old men" 老无所依

"there will be blood" 血色将至 - Xuèsè jiāng zhì

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and "no country for old men" 老无所依 - Lǎo wú suǒ yī

I also just discovered this website in my search for this movie's title: www.zenmeshuomovies.com. It's for listing the Chinese translations of western movie names.

In order to grasp more public attention,hardly any films' names are interpretd literally.these commercial films are often entitled with an attractive local name which even has nothing to do with the movie per se.
