His ADR is horrible. Take Bane in the Dark Knight Rises. He ADRd the voice because of back lash, but he put it front and center on the mix, with no locations at all. It just sounds like a loud voice over, when it should be mixed in with all the other voices. It doesn't matter if Bane is in front of the camera, to the side, off screen, or a mile away - his voice is always full front no matter what.

Haha. I had access to subtitles when I watched Dark Knight, so it wasn't as awful an experience.. For Inception, Tenet, and Interstellar I just had no idea what was even happening, at all. (Bounced off Inception in the first few minutes because I just didn't GAF.) My experiences have been so frustrating I vowed not to watch his stuff until he improved his craft.

Like, I get that he's not interested in anyone else's opinion about his art. That's cool, he should be doing his own thing! But he's making a lot of inaccessible shovelware crap that's gonna be on sale in discount bins in only years, and really truly doesn't care. Bleh!

This i just don't get. I understand everything in all his movies except certain parts of Tenet, which deliberately lowered behind the music.

Same. I had no problem at the cinema and at home. I don't believe I have better hearing than others, or maybe I do and don't know it?

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

yeah i’m with you. maybe the dynamics are too extreme but the movies are perfectly understandable.

[–] clove@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't know what to tell you. I'm glad your experience was better than mine and you enjoyed them!

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

For sure, i wasn't knocking you or anything. Your experience was definitely the same as most. I only wished more people had better experiences.

Dialogue is always mixed front centre in 5.1/7.1 mixes.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

If you think that's all sound mixing is... oof
