- by the infernal roaring sound in between dialog. Why do movies have this? Girl with the dragon tattoo was the same. "Good afternoon, Mrs Smith" roooooaaaarrrr "how are things with you?" Roooooaaaarrrr like a train going through a station. There is no roaring sound when I talk to someone in my living room!
i've read the other replys to your comment here, andi have no idea what you're talking about either. i LOVE this movie and i've watched it numerous times, on different t.v.s, and not once did i hear this sound you're talking about.
I would not say that this film is one of the biggest offenders that way. I didn't notice a problem, but then, I had subtitles on*.
But there are some pretty well known examples of films where the dialog is poorly mixed in with the sound-effects, sound-track, and other incidentals.
The worst film I can cite is the film Interstellar, which was so bad that there was a website during the films theater run for people to complain about it. This was in the theater, before it was available for home viewing. I saw that film in 3 different formats in the theater (IMAX, Standard, another IMAX screen) and each of them sucked.
THAT SAID, as some other posters mentioned, the OP might want to check the sound settings on their TV or sound system. There are several settings that can change the sound to emphasize effects, but make dialog harder to hear than it needs to be.
* I often watch with subtitles on because while I'm not at the point of needing a hearing aid (though that point is debatable), rock and roll has rendered my ears to be a bit less discerning in the higher frequency range, which can affect my comprehension of some dialog.
Be sure to proof your posts to see if you any words out
The only sounds in this film are that of wind blowing, Windows and floors creaking etc. It's meant to be that way. However, it's only in certain scenes and it's not distracting, it actually adds to the atmosphere of the "Old West"
I never noticed that about Interstellar either. That's a first too. I saw it in theatres multiple times and never once did I hear it. The only films I can think of that are anything like the OP mentioned are from the 70's or so... But that has more to do with low budgets and terrible sound mixing.
Interstellar was an awful movie, indeed. Why the *beep* did you bother to watch it three times in theaters?? I watched it once in Imax and that was more than enough.
