    Yeah I can’t hear the dialogue, but when those two characters kissed I could hear everything happening in their mouthes and that’s what’s really important.

    Two characters kiss in deep space 9 and it sounds like a kiss irl. Two characters kiss in superman (2025) (or almost any modern media) and I’m listening to a 30+ second close-up of the actors trying to wetly suck the other’s lips into their mouth. Why??

      No idea why anyone thinks the kissing audio needs to be so pronounced. Drives me up the wall. Watching a tender scene, only to be ripped out of the moment by kissing audio that was recorded by having toddlers eating fettuccine alfredo for the first time.
