*sigh* this was literally a millennial trend a mere year ago but now it is a Gen Z trend? Maybe just subtitles are great and everyone uses them and they're not a generational affinity? TeleTVRadio/1551161568678879232Permalink On twitter.com

And I dunno all of this talk of distracted watching does sound right but ALSO... Am I crazy but do streaming services, especially their originals, just have a bad sound mix? Maybe I'm getting old but it sure does feel like it is actually harder to hear what people are saying...Permalink On twitter.com

The top post seems to blame this on "serious" actors being "more mumbly". But I dunno it seems to me more like the sound mix of stuff is off far more often... or maybe it is something about how modern equalizers set to movie mode work? I dunno.Permalink On twitter.com

Whatever the reason, better subtitles are better for everyone. m_older/1127427761793118208Permalink On twitter.com

Anyway, if you are NYC-based, a little fun fact I only just discovered is that the AMC uptown--AMC Lincoln Square 13 on 68th--plays current films on the big screen WITH subtitles, in-theater! It's great!Permalink On twitter.com
