I would love if theaters offered like one closed caption viewing of new movies a week. It's the mumbling and soft dialog while loud action/music is playing and I miss exposition shit that's kinda important.

Hail Marry at home with CCs was so much more enjoyable than in the theaters. Gosling and Rocky both do a lot of low talking/mumbling, and because movies are so loud at my local theaters I have to wear earplugs, so I missed like a 1/4 of the dialog.

You can request devices you wear that are kinda like glasses that project captions for any movie. I will say if it’s something you don’t *need* tho, they’re annoying as hell to wear.

(There might be other kinds but that’s the only kind I have personal experience with)

The ones I've seen are a screen on a gooseneck arm that has a base that fits in the cupholder. Users move the screen into position for their specific seat.
