I just had this discussion with another post friend.
We was talking about the significance of the LKFS changes (if anyone cares to read what we're on about) that Netflix Scott Kramer who is Manager, Sound Technology, made a while back.
Cool, very smart guy I met when I started the now dead "Patriot Act". (sorry Netflix, you shoulda stuck with it. Way better than that guy and that woman.)
My buddy felt he was chasing levels when he watched with his older 5.1 Yamaha, though he usually chooses 2.1. Me, I'm 2.0. I don't chase levels as I am (generally) ok with dialog "reality". There are times I do rewind.
Though we are both older than dirt, I'd think our hearing was still decent as we generally aren't above 85db ..... except when AC/DC comes on.
When I watch Brit shows, Ted Lasso, Flack, Fleabag, etc, between the rapid speech and the billions of dialects, I give up and flip on the subs, quitter that I am.
Someday, I'd hope, that there would be a center channel crush or parallel available for those who want the clarity and are too lazy to flip the subs (I wish there was a momentary for this as well, but these minimal remotes, feh!)
For Mank, didn't bother me, but I did watch a 2nd time.
Oldman reminded me of Brando and Dunaway in Don Juan DeMarco, a film that got nuthin, even though they just seem to be jammin the whole way thru. And Dep is pretty damn good too.
