loud quiet loud

[christopher575]

Can anyone tell me why movies have whispery quiet dialogue and booming sound effects and scores? It's fucking annoying. Do they want everyone's neighbors to hate them?

I really hate that.

Oh, hello "Star Trek Generations".

Bad mix from the multiple speaker system to the two speaker system, I'm guessing.

Seriously! I'm partially deaf, so it's even more annoying when they don't at least include subtitles on the DVDs.

Ug. Sadly I didn't even think of the neighbors last time that this happened as I had the crap startled out of me. =(

I also hate commercials that are eleventy times louder than the program you were just watching - or the commercial that aired just before it.

That's one thing I like about hulu.com, the commercials are almost always quieter than the show.

I don't know if I can sit back down in front of a computer at night (since I do it all day at work). Otherwise I would Hulu a LOT more.

Think of it as a small TV.

I don't even want to watch TV at night. ...especially during the summer.

Because of the kids, my TV's are usually showing cartoons, and cartoons put me to sleep.

Think of it as a porno player.

Now you're talking my language.

This. Movies are filmed and soundrecorded for the big screen, not for home theaters.
