What is this I hear about subtitles? Is some of the movie non-English? |
@ Guest-4261 There are at least three good reasons why people want subtitles, even if the movie is in English. First and foremost, I'd guess that roughly 30 to 40% of the people who visit TGx are speakers of other languages. We have members and guests from all over the world, and not all of them speak English fluently. Secondly, even if English is your first language, people sometimes struggle with non-familiar accents, especially when the actors are speaking quickly or mumbling. Urban American slang, Aussie, Scottish, Irish, and British accents can be challenging - if you're not used to it. And thirdly, some people have hearing impairment issues. Thanks to Guest-2955 for the links. @ Guest-2382 I've read the comments by Ridley Scott from that interview, and while I'm not defending him per se, I think he was attempting to blame the film's box office failure on modern tech (i.e., the smartphone generation) who tend to expect and demand instant gratification. Smash 'like' and 'hit subscribe' and watch me now as I dive into a swimming pool filled with hungry sharks, etc. In other words, I think he was complaining about younger folk being less patient - and less willing to sit through a movie with a long story - such as The Last Duel. Maybe he has a point? Maybe not. Old geezers are always complaining about the younger generation. |
Thank you. I'm on the fence with this one , neither love or hate it. |
