Survey: Why America Is Obsessed with Subtitles

One major reason I stopped watching movies in theaters is because of the lack of subtitles. It's very hard to hear voices and actors/actresses often do prioritize enunciation. Even when they do, they often use words/names that I do not come across often. Everything adds up to making movies hard to follow in theaters.

With newer movies, it's almost impossible to understand the actors. Pre-2005ish movies are fine without subtitles.
