idk who needs to hear this but turning on subtitles doesn't mean you have bad hearing it just means you want to actually understand what the gritty main character is whispering over a massive explosion

I think it lowk just breaks immersion like “oh yeah this is my phone”

I don't like subtitles bc it's like spoiling two seconds ahead at all times but some movies these days have such bad sound mixing that there's practically no choice

Yeah so true I also feel like when the movie is shot really well I don’t want to split my attention between what’s being shown and having to read

One movie I saw (can’t remember which) had a loud club scene and they used hardcoded subtitles to improve the overall sound design. I thought it was more immersive than making a loud environment sound quieter than it should for the sake of dialogue in that case
