I definitely saw this in How I Met Your Mother in Netflix, where a movie poster on a cinema wall was (badly) replaced by a newer movie that came out after the show aired. I wouldn't have minded if it was done better, as that specific e

I had exactly the same question, although I haven't tried either language yet. It'd be great if somebody could shed some light on this, as I would find it really interesting.
