Re-Watch Your Favorite Movies With Subtitles Turned On
You may have seen The Shawshank Redemption so many times that you’re sure you’ve memorized almost every line. Or by clicking the finger, you can jump up and quote the famous monologue of Jack Nicholson’s “You can not bear the truth ” from the “few good men” brand mockery and allsuch . (“Son, we live in a world in which there are walls, and these walls must be guarded by people with weapons. Who will do this? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg ?”)
Watching your favorite movie is like spending a couple of hours with an old friend – it’s familiar, soothing, it’s the embodiment of self-care. But if you want to change the experience a bit and dive even deeper, Reddit user u / Focksycleopatra suggests : Turn on subtitles.
If you have a favorite movie that you’ve watched several (or hundreds) of times, try watching it with subtitles / subtitles turned on. You may be wondering how many lines you heard wrong or completely missed.
This is especially useful for movies with dense content like Saving Private Ryan. If you’re a fan of this movie, I highly recommend starting with this … A complete game changer for me.
Focky is right that this would be especially good for movies with rich content, as well as for movies where dialogue is low, accents are strong, or action moves quickly. And yes, we offer this with the caveat that not all subtitles are 100% accurate. But it can help you catch an indistinct insult or that annoying phrase lost in the rumble of bombs and artillery fire.
