FYI, most of the big theater chains can provide subtitles in their theaters. There are two types of devices they'll give you... one is a personal two-line LED display that fits in your cupholder and sits around eye level, the other is a pair of electronic glasses that overlays them onto the picture. Both sync to a wireless signal that gets broadcast in the theater itself.
I can't watch movies without those anymore. You just have to go to guest services and ask for them; sometimes the frontline staff won't know they have them, but a manager almost always knows how to get one and set it up for you. It's free.
- crooked-v 5y agoThere's also a lower-tech solution in some places, with a display at the back of the theater showing subtitles and a mirror on a stick that fits into a cupholder to reflect it.
- technobabbler 5y agoYikes! That seems like it'd a real PITA for anyone sitting behind you, constantly seeing flashes of light from the projector if you happened to hold it the wrong angle for just a second.
