My favorite is when they give the genre/ an emotional description of the music, and it's completely wrong.
Sometimes I feel like they're lucky when they blast Imagine Dragons, and they just say "πΆHigh energy, folk-rockπΆ".
I live in a noisy area, so I always have cc on, and that always makes me laugh.
It's either full on "Somber music playing" or subtitles for "foreign" parts only. I just want subtitles for everyone talking. Bonus points if foreign parts are translated, but if there's supposed to be some mysterious group speaking a strange language - like french or something - then give me subtitles in french.
My favorite is when on-screen text is subtitled.
SOME TIME LATER "Some time later"
Thanks.
I have captions on because sound in shows can be uneven to me. It's funny watching "Strange New Worlds" and the constant whoosh when doors open
I'm not deaf, I just prefer to consume my music as it was originally created: in print.
This rocks.
Damn it, now it's going to be stuck in my head all day.
I've read over 20 audiobooks this year.
In all honesty I do actually wonder about this. Any deaf people out there to weigh in? Does having the captions talk about music improve the experience for you? This is not a loaded question, I'm genuinely curious.
I'm a hearing individual but I'd like to say that I always enjoy subtitles and I really the way they sometimes describe the emotion music intends to convey.
Like when it says "romantic melody" or "suspenseful music." I like having that spelled out for me because sometimes I'll hear the music and I'll get a completely different vibe from what's playing than what was intended.
"Why is this horror scene playing elevator music" has been a real question I've asked myself, only for the subtitles to tell me I misinterpreted the music.
That's a really interesting take to me because I actually have the opposite reaction. I don't like the subtitles telling what to think about the tone of the music. I like to experience it raw so to speak.
My brother was born deaf. He experiences music through vibrations. He has his favorite bands and songs like anyone else. Closed Captioning in relation to music is largely useless, except as a que for the playing of said music.
Note: I'm not deaf, but my brother is. This is his explanation paraphrased, not mine. Also, I can't watch anything without Closed Captioning, as it was always on for my brother growing up.
Thanks for the insight!

Watching movies without CC must be like looking out the window to you.
Lil' Jon approves. Gettin' loooow ...
