One thing I have noticed ab...I saw this last night. One thing I have noticed about new movies, is the volume. I dig loud, don't get me wrong, but I actually still have some hearing left in my ears, and I'd like to have some left after I leave a movie theater, but after last night at the movies maybe not. That's one thing I've noticed the last couple years especially. The volume isn't cranked up to 11, its at about 35. Some movies are cranked so loud the speakers are distorting for the whole movie, and obviously some of the speakers are blown in the auditorium. Doesn't anybody hear that? Oh, right, their hearing is trashed already, even the kids. I seriously can't stand it any more. I'm almost done watching movies in movie theaters. I love my classical music, I enjoy listening to people talk, I enjoy the birds who sing and squawk away at all hours of the day and night around my house. What I don't enjoy is being physically assaulted by sound in a movie theater because half the people are deaf and under the age of 25 from jamming headphones on their heads for all their lives cranked to infinity and beyond. Old people don't care, they just lean over and talk really really loud during the movie because, well they think you can't hear them. We hear you!!<br /><br />Oh yea, Interstellar. Loud, bombastic, did I mention loud? So glad I didn't go to the IMAX, my eardrums would have burst. The dialogue in the script would have been better if they had 1000 monkeys, and I mean furry short human-type creatures, slamming away at a keyboard for 10 years, than what came out of the casts mouth. And really, the only relief I had from the whole LOUD mess was when the COMPLETELY unnecessary appearance of a certain actor shows up near the end and my friend leans over to me, and imitates the voice perfectly from the movie TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE, and says and I quote, "Matt Damon." - I missed five minutes of the movie as we both couldn't stop laughing. Was I supposed to put a spoiler alert before I quoted Team America? Believe me the movie going experience is spoiled long before that.<br /><br />Great review James!Ripper Madnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01074155968277502192noreply@blogger.com
