Oof. What's next? Announcing what they see? What items are around them and how they could interact with them (or not)?
Like "Protagonist: I walked north and I entered a mysterious room, full of different bottles. They don't look like I could use them, but maybe I should take one with me?"
- BLKNSLVR 2y agoThe Mandalorian, oh my lawd, the dialogue was just narrative explanation. Just terrible. Terribly terrible.
- xnx 2y agoCovering the main character's face in a helmet isn't great for drama.
- scarface_74 2y agoSylvester Stallone thought the same about Judge Dredd. That was such a great movie because of the decision. https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/judge-dredd-1995 https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/judge-dredd-1995

- thih9 2y agoI prefer the later version with Karl Urban - and to me it was expressive too. Here’s a fun interview that includes a related question: > Did having the helmet affect your acting at all? How did you maneuver around wearing that for the entire movie, and could you see through it? > Oh yea [I could see through it], it took a bit to figure it out, it really did, and it was a challenge, you know, the challenge was how to communicate with an audience. And not only because my eyes weren’t visible, but because of the fact that the character of Dredd operates within a very narrow bandwidth, he is a man who has been trained to keep his emotions in check, so consequently it was very important for me to identify how I could humanize the character as much as possible. The sense of humor became very important, that dry, laconic sense of humor, and finding out where’s this character’s compassion? Where does his empathy lie?

- thrwthsnw 2y agoIf people aren’t watching the show why not just make it a radio play?
- mst 2y agoI think because people are 'watching' in a situation where twenty years ago they'd've put the radio on but now they default to 'fire something up on Netflix' and so Netflix wants to make things amenable to those customers. I'm not sure how I feel about this, but it does at least make sense in terms of why Netflix are doing so.
- drewcoo 2y agoThat's not how (good) radio plays work either. Through good use of dialog and foley, they could avoid such ham-handed writing.

- cdot2 2y agoWe're converging on audiobooks
- whoisstan 2y agoPodcasts, brrrrr Audio works on the subway, on the bike, while riding a bike, cleaning the house and the big one, driving a car. To get into a situation where you can both watch and listen is much rarer.
- ghaff 2y agoThe car is pretty much the only time I listen to non-music audio. And I don't drive enough to listen to audiobooks for the most part.
- cdot2 2y agoI'll listen to audiobooks while running on a treadmill but not when running outside.
- ghaff 2y agoIn general, although transparency on current AirPods is good, I really just am not comfortable with having music or other audio playing in my ears when I'm moving around outside--and certainly not in an urban setting.
