Have you tried the captioning devices at theatres? They aren't perfect but when they work well it makes going to the movies possible for me. I have only used the cup holder type. Would like to try the glasses version but none if theaters here have that.I have close caption on permanently too. I don’t go to theaters hardly ever because of all the background noise (music, sound effects) it’s ridiculous for me to pay to see something that’s a new release when I can’t understand it. But I occasionally go anyway because my friends are willing to watch movies at my house with the cc turned on. (They say it distracts them)
