Not so much sympathy, but nobody understands why it drives me nuts when movies and shows will have loud music in them while characters are talking. I have hearing problems, so this means if I turn the volume up, I risk going deaf because the music's loud, but I'll be damned if I know what anyone's saying.

But even beyond a lot of people not getting that, I feel by complaining I'm pulling some sort of card.

I have the same problem. I don't watch most movies in theater because of this, and use subtitles at home. It's the most annoying in video games. I want to be able to hear what the NPCs are saying, damnit, not the music.

I still go to theaters, and usually don't miss too much. At home though, yeah, I don't watch much on TV.

yeah same. whenever the speaker the dialogue comes from is on my bad ear's side, i can't hear shit. on the other end, if the speaker the music comes from is on my good ear's side, i can't hear shit either. thank god for mono.

I don't even have hearing problem (like at all) but I have a lot of trouble with that. Or when a lot of people are talking at the same time. It's really difficult to filter out the sound of one voice.

But what I hate most isn't music during talking, it's the way that sound effects always seems to be so fucking much louder than any talking. You can be straining to hear what people are saying, turn up the volume and suddenly BAM SOUND EFFECTS.

I don't have hearing problems, but I have this issue with some movies as well. It's annoying.

I have this problem in real life and in movies.

Allegedly, human brains are wired to recognize human voice vs non-voice noises, but if that's the case then I don't have it. If there's a lot of noise, human voices blend right in and I can't pick it out form all the other noise, something which seems to come so easy to other people.

I think you have a fairly valid complaint, anon.

*solidarity fistbump*

Gods yes this. I have auditory processing issues. At home, we turn on subtitles (but not everything supports it, grr, and this is esp problematic with some TV shows... I think we have actually had to BUY TV eps off places that provide subtitles vs. watching free because the characters would talk so fast I couldn't understand what they were saying), but at movies? Holy shit I can't count the number of times I've leaned over to my partner to ask "uh... what did they say?"... thus missing what was being said next half the time... *headdesk*
