You have started to remove original burned in subtitles and replace them with player generated subtitles. This is wrong. Stop this practice immediately.
For example: “Bad Boys 2”. In the theatrical print, the subtitles (names of locations etc.) are written to the screen one character at a time accompanied with sound effects (typewriter-like effect). From the dvd, the original subtitles have been replaced with player generated subtitles and the whole text appears at the same time. And the sound effects have been removed.
At least. if the subtitles are highly stylized, they should be left alone.
I’m now on the fence whether I’ll buy the “Bad Boys 2” dvd or not.
