If you cant hear the dialogue properly, it's usually to do with (bad) surround sound!
I'm watching on my laptop, not a home cinema. This one's on the filmmakers preferring rich people over everyone else
I dunno, we have a decent Dolby Atmos system I've assembled over the years which sounds immense & has a setting to accentuate speech, yet I always use subs for TV & movies. My brain is hopeless putting names to faces, the subs help me with this (plus slang & accents).
I think it's something to do with how my brain processes sound as I have the same issue with songs - my brain doesnt comprehend lyrics, I don't know the words to songs I've heard thousands of times no matter how well known the song is, maybe a few lines from a chorus but that's about it
I’ve got the same song lyric thing, and a pretty decent 5.1 setup.
It’s the modern sound mixing. When I watch a movie from the 90s or early 2000s using the same system, the dialogue is generally clearer
