GoldenEye Russian Restroom Newspaper Google Translated

Google Translate (roughly) helps us see the Russian headlines the soldier reads on the toilet in GoldenEye (1995) before James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) gives him the surprise of his life. The roughly translated text seen is:

  • “Twenty years ago, the Central Committee of the CPSU released first soviet football player to earn money in a foreign club”
  • “Mateus will not lie”
  • “Onin lived in Burma like a king, but worked like an ox”

Any Russians out there want to help out further?
