The love for subtitles took off at the same time Hollywood decided to mix their audio so you can't fucking hear the voices, coincidence that subtitles have surged ? I don't think so. Watch an 80s or 90s movie where you can actually hear the dialogue. Better isn't it ?

Hollywood cannot seem to mix audio correctly, but at the same time, I'm a snack fiend and like subtitles because I can't hear dialogue over the sounds of my crunching (we are not the same).

I forget what video I watched that explained this, but it essentially said:

"The audio mixing is correct. It is mixed for full surround sound, like those you see in home theaters (probably the very expensive setups!) and actual theaters. There is no reason to have dual-mixed sound, one for those with stereo speakers and one for the surround sound setups, so they don't."

Sooo... Being able to hear the audio if you don't have surround sound isn't a reason ?

I really don't like this timeline, can I have a new one please ?

Ehhhh it depends on the final results. There are plenty of 80's movies where the audio mixers didnt have a clue what they were doing

The Untouchables comes to mind
