Sometimes, and specifically on Amazon prime, if a show / movie has hard coded subs (for sign or other foreign languages) you will need to turn off the optional subtitle setting.
Of course then, when someone does speak out loud you won't get your normal subs until you turn the setting back on. I used to put in a new complaint for each show that it happened on until i canned prime altogether and went back to pirating all their content.
This film would never work for second screen viewers because the characters would have to nonstop be saying βIβm being really quietβ or βwe canβt make any noise, even loud breathing, or the monster will get usβ.
No info about film in thread: mildy infuriating.
Itβs from Lollywood, youβve probably never heard of it.
Is that Jim from The Office!?
CIA Jim, yes
Didn't he also play CIA Agent Jack Ryan?
He couldn't stay in Athlead forever.
I want there to be a film with both Tim and Jim sitting at a desk pulling reaction faces to camera at everything going on.
Whoβs Tim?
Big reaction face guy.
That's not going to work for me. I can't read. Can they do a dub?
Thatβs called audio description, they do it for blind audiences.
My Dad is incredibly dyslexic, and it's a legit issue for him.
Growing up, if a movie or TV show had subs we had to take turns reading it out loud for him. I still have to catch myself trying to do automatically it when we're watching something with other people.
I grew up in a country where movies are rarely dubbed. I was reading the subtitles out loud for my siblings who couldn't read yet for entire movies.
I read video game dialogue out loud for kids like a storybook. Also anime subs that have no official dub, it can get pretty silly

I do this for my wife, because she spends most of a film on her phone.
She's listening to the audio and can mostly follow what's going on by glancing at the screen and reading subtitles every now and then, but if there's a foreign language with subtitles, or a text description (Paris, 11 AM or 10 years later, etc.), she'll miss it and then be completely lost.
I can't tell you how many times I've had to pause a movie and give a quick recap to get her caught up with the plot.
I believe Netflix order movies to be understandable to people who are not paying attention. Maybe they have something that is good enough for you, it would save you from having to recap stuff.
I am conflicted here. On the one hand, I agree that subtitles would have been nice. On the other hand, I think folks with hearing disabilities get shut out of other content so much that I don't think this somewhat solitary case makes it good mildly infuriating material. It's most likely just an oversight. Much less likely a clever scheme to highlight ableism.
I mean, by US law (back when analog TV was standard) all TV broadcasts had to include closed captions on scanline 23(?) for people with hearing disabilities. it was part of the vertical blanking interval so it didn't interfere with the regularly visible broadcast. It is good to include subtitles for all dialogue, spoken in the local dialect, in a foreign dialect, and even the various sign languages. That's isn't to say that yes, I fully agree that differently abled people should be able to take part in the dialog and should have accommodations where needed.
Semi related, did you know American sign language is closer to French sign language than it is to British sign language?
On the one hand
heh
Maybe you missed the point.
