    Classic schooled actors with theater experience are being replaced by young actors using basic conversational speech and volume. More natural but not that easy to understand.

      Dude that shit is recorded on microphones and levels can be adjusted with mixers.

      No grandpa, you’re just going deaf

        No, there’s definitely an element of not speaking clearly.

        Matthew McConaughey and Tom Hardy as examples. Chris Nolan gets shit on for his terrible sound mixing, but him picking actors who mumble is the main issue.

        Put on a movie from 1980 vs one from 2020. The voice clarity is night and day.

      Hmm, no, that one is on snob directors and pretentious sound engineers.
