    The problem I have is when movies / shows are really low that you can’t hear them and then an action scene blows your speakers at the same volume. Watching movies at night when the kids are asleep are nearly impossible. Normal talking sounds like whispers so you turn it up a bit then a car explodes in the movie and then so does the TV irl. (Edited for grammar)

      they have sufficient set lighting but the image's colour, contrast, and brightness is determined manually by the one who did the video editor. It is because their digital camera output "RAW" images and they had to manually do colour grading according to the video editor's (or director's) preference, or they are simply noob & use wrong settings.

    This is so true. I can’t stand watching shows or movies anymore because you can’t see shit. Seriously you can’t. And god forbid the light from your room or outside or from your iPhone shines near the tv then you really can’t see shit because it makes it darker somehow. It’s insane. 😂😂

    This is literally how I felt about, "The Terminal List". We kept trying to adjust our TV to find out....this is how they filmed the damn thing.

      I understand why you feel that way about The Terminal List...but I didn't feel it was overly used. But yeah there were a couple of times it was a bit much. I sort of appreciated it's affect when it was used as foreshadowing leading to the discovery of his wife and child along with his return to the house in despair. But the scene blowing up his commanding officer...I just didn't get why that had been shot so dark.

      @@copiouscareerist While I was defending The Terminal List there was another pointless blacked out scene. When Commander Cox drowned tied to the log when it forced him under the water. A black man at night against the inky blackness of night time water with no back lighting and very little front lighting. I could hardly make out the facial features/emotion...that was a fail. The "darkness" conveyed nothing in terms of emotion...and no atmosphere or suspense.

      As cheesy as they were, this was where old westerns and kung fu movies excelled. You could follow the progression of the fight easily and see the "tactics" at play. IMO they slowed it down a little too much, but at least people won't get vertigo in the theaters or have no idea what's going on during a long string of fights.

      And in GoT, and some other shows / movies, The Expanse was often underlit as well ... Batman wasn't the worst case of this trend :(
      Directors tend to forget all of us don't own oled screens, it became even worse since LCDs have universally bad contrast ratios compared to most of the good old CRTs, some of them are even pedantic saying people should not watch it on phones/tablets (they might not be completely wrong on this one though) or that people don't know how to set up contrast on their TV when the technology is deeply flawed in itself.
      It could be argued for movies that they might at least look good in theaters, but I remember for SOLO some only used 1 of the 2 bulbs in their projectors because these things aren't cheap and have a limited life expectancy, people could barely see what happened on screens in lots of scenes.
