I literally can't hear some words occasionally in newer shows. I don't need them for older shows though.

I feel you. Watched the first spider verse movie today, and I barely understood a word. It's either whispering, or BANG CACHOW POW POWwhisperPOW.

And yes, I could just manually "fix" the sound, but that requires that I pirate or buy a physical copy first.
