I can't do subtitles either. Not because of any motion sickness, but I feel like I'm missing out on the cinematography and acting because I'm having to read instead of listen.

Wife and I are the same way, can't watch anything without it, also wife is hard of hearing so saves us from rewinding

Isn't there an option for the visually-impaired where they read out things for you? Try that.

Ya, at first I thought that it was annoying because I have a cheap friend so he always wants to make the most out of everything, so, in this case, use 'all' the functions which means switching on the subtitles. However, for me, I now find it useful as sometimes I'm doing other things or the room is noisy so when the actors are speaking softly/saying difficult/technical/unexpected words I don't need to rewind.

There is but probably not for all shows/movies since they need to put in the effort and make that version. Tell me if you luck out.

Watched Hell or High Water last night.

Realized it was written by the creator of Yellowstone and I got the vibe from that. Pretty good movie.

Heads up, everyone mentions movies here mostly on streaming services. The website JustWatch allows you to search a movie and it will tell you which of the 1000x streaming services it is on

It was a great action movie! It’s Taken meets John Wick served up with the drama style of Parasite. Go watch it if you can.

Where is the world headed? Does Hollyweird reveal truth in movies? If yes, then why? Think predictive programming. Does Back To The Future encode 911 in many scenes (released in 1984)? If so why?

So, remember summer blockbusters?
Terminator 2 debuted 31 years (and two weeks) ago.

I've lost track of the number of times I've watched this film.
Including the very first time, as a 12 year old in the theatre.

I just read that the kid in T2 grew up and got addicted to heroin and other drugs....I think he got clean this past year, though.

And who could forget the song and video that go with it.



My favorite from Guns 'N' Roses.
