However, compared with its huge social impact, film translation receives little academic concern, let alone film title translation. Though developed in recent years, the studies on film title translation are mainly engaged in idle theorizing while field investigation or research has seldom been conducted （Zhang Guangfa & Liu Xuanchuan, 2006: 84）, and the key domain audience research has been4lunluckily, even irresponsibly neglectedXZhang Yingjin, 2007:81）. Many scholars approach the issue from the micro-level of specific translation strategics with mechanical application of one single translation theory, thus fail to explain and evaluate the translation effect efficiently, which leads to disunity in film title translation between mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan and disorder as the normal status quo of film title translation in reality. This thesis takes a …更多 new approach from audience perspective （o investigate the E-C film title translation acceptance state by mainland audience, and to study the factors affecting their acceptance, hoping to generalise some rules beneficial to film title translators practice.First a survey is designed to investigate the acceptance of different translations, with different translated versions for 28 representative English film titles as the main content, taking the form of a combination of survey and interview. To enlarge the sample size, the data were collected via a variety of methods in both field survey and net survey, at last 411 valid questionnaires were collected. The descriptive statistics from data-analysis proves: the acceptance for the literal translations of film title by mainland audience overwhelmingly takes up majority; comparing with the commercial and cultural value, informative and aesthetic value arc considered more important among the four functions of film title translation.Then nonparametric tests such as Spearman^s rho, Kruskal-Wallis Test, ManWhitney Test are adopted to examine the correlation between the four variables - gender, age, education level, English competence- and the audiences selection on function of film title translation, film title translation respective y; after quantified processing of the nominal variables, Pearson Correlation Test, One-way ANOVA and Post Hoc Test arc able to be employed to analyse in depth the correlation between age, education level, English competence and audiences reasons for translation selection. Finally the conclusions drawn from the discussion are: There is no significant relationship between the four factors, i.e. gender, age, education level, English competence, and the audiences selection on function of film title translation, but there is significant correlation between the four factors and the audiences selection on function of film title translation, film title translation, and the correlation and difference arc both very significant with the last three factors; the older the audience is, with higher education level and better English competence, the easier he accepts the faithful literal translation of mainland, and more often chooses64information accuracyMas his reason for the translations selected; the younge『audience with lower education level, is more apt to commercialised domesticated flexible translation. Thus it is deduced that the transitional translation theory alone is not applicable for film title translation, faithful to film contcnt, adaptable to aesthetic value, and take commercial element into consideration moderately, is a rule accepted by most audicncc. 还原ReplaceFontCChDivSummary,电彩不仅址现代普遍的娱乐方式，更是重要的文化传播媒介。
