    It’s not that it’s mixed shitty, it’s that they never remixed it for new releases. So it still uses the theater audio mix and range where there’s 12,000+ watts of audio power available and like 12 audio channels.

    When they actually remix it to a home release format the issues almost always go away. Even remixing for 5.1 most TVs can downmix to stereo just fine.

      Hyperrealistic acting also doesn’t help. Lots of actors insist on mumbling in a way that makes it hard to understand even if in a cinema.
