Nyle DiMarco explains how deaf people go to the movies. Since it is no longer the norm for movies to display captions, people who are deaf must use an assistive device such as glasses or a device called a CaptiView which sits in a cup holder and displays subtitles.
The problem with these devices however is that they can make the user feel like an outcast. DiMarco says, "The whole experience is annoying, embarrassing. It takes a toll on my deaf identity. It feels like I'm being robbed of my dignity. And it's very destructive to my own identity."
DiMarco calls for movies to display open captions more frequently, saying, "Open captions are not for the 466 million deaf people alone, they're beneficial for people who have ADHD, people who are autistic, people who have learning disabilities, and even people who want to learn a new language."

I just wish movies always had captions
I am a hearing man , and I would not mind seeing captions in a movie . It would not bother, nor would I walk out ,But thank you Nyle, I never knew this . I love to see movies come back with captions. And hope more people would be more acceptable with it .
In my country there are always captions even if no one's deaf
just 👏🏻 because 👏🏻 hearing 👏🏻 people 👏🏻 are 👏🏻 the 👏🏻 majority 👏🏻 does 👏🏻 not 👏🏻 mean 👏🏻 deaf 👏🏻 people 👏🏻don’t 👏🏻 matter 👏🏻
Deaf can not listen to the claps why'd you add them?
P.S. I love nyle and what he does its a joke.
@@nighatparveen4813 because the visibility of the claps are much more powerful than the sound it produces?
I'm deaf and I can't hear your clapping.
Naomi Gary yes, I am deaf myself and I use implants but the theatre is still hard for me to understand
There are countries where subtitles are mandatory in all cinemas, hope America catches up
It’s really annoying that part of his hands are not in the frame during some parts of the video. I want to see the signs not read the captions.
I see what you did there.
That is really interesting to know Nyle. And I am glad you are stepping up to be a spokesman for the Deaf Community. I am now dealing with Fluctuating Hearing Loss and I think the mass public just takes hearing for granted. It sometimes is a challenge and I also have cut back going to Movie Theaters. I just catch the movie at home when available and use CC as an aide. Thanks for your input.
Imagine being a deaf black man, that's my reality
haha
I'm sorry. I'd take you to the movies! :-)
I'm white and black people seem cooler then white people idk why maybe it's that there funnier or something
@@njay4399 Lol no
I hope he’ll watch A Quiet Place. It’s a movie a lot of words in sign language.
Bailee Sandbakken I’m sure that he already has! Same with me since I’m deaf too. ☺️
Everyone saying catering to the majority is more important. Your not seeing how privileged you really are. Your ability to hear gives you and advantage to enjoy everything in a theater. The deaf community (disabled community really) has been told there not important because there's so little of us. Open captions aren't actually going to take away from your movie experience once you start watching you can ignore them because guess what you can hear them movie: so they fade away. But a deaf person they can't enjoy a movie with the box glasses it's too hard to see the screen and read the captions. Why can't you stop and say ok the captions maybe annoying to me, but there the only ways a whole community can enjoy the same experience. Im not deaf but I am learning sign language because I run into deaf people in my travels and I want to be able to communicate with everyone!
Exactly my thoughts. These are the same people who complain about subtitles in movies with an unfamiliar language. I mean, they're not only being ignorant but also missing out so many great non-English movies. I feel sad for these people.
Just because open captions don’t bother YOU doesn’t mean that others aren’t bothered by them. Many people are distracted by the captions, they add light/brilliance in otherwise dark scenes, etc. They have devices for the deaf and hard of hearing. Just because you don’t want to use them doesn’t mean you get to dictate what the majority of the world have to experience. The world isn’t fair. It’s not fair that you’re deaf, but that’s the card life handed you. Be glad that there’s technology available to help you while also not inconveniencing others. There will come a time when liberals will want all people to handicap themselves to make the world more equal LOL
@@DayumQuitPlayin You are talking about your preferences and he is talking about our need. I’m born profoundly deaf so obviously I cannot argue from experience about destruction from what you hear but so many hearing people say it’s no problem and perhaps your attitude problem. 🤦🏼♀️
I am not deaf, but growing up I thought myself English using closed captions in the movies I watched. It's a shame that something that is so necessary and useful for millions of people has been taken away from the movies.
I'm so happy Nyle pointed out it helping autistic and and those with ADHD too! I'm deaf, with bilateral cochlear implants, so not only do they help me understand from a hearing perspective, but I also am autistic and suspect I might be ADHD too, and I've noticed that captions really help me to focus as well! Great video :)
I have even read that film distributors dub foreign movies into American markets because their research showed that Americans don't like to read the subtitles. I personally enjoy the subtitle experience in foreign films because I like to hear the sound of the speaker's passion in their voice. For those who are not deaf, the captions can also enhance the viewing experience because you can be sure of what the characters really say. So, it is great to know that captions help those deaf movie lovers to appreciate cinema as well.
I watch everything with captions on, it makes everything easier to understand
I’m really thankful for this video. I didn’t know this was what the deaf community in America has been experiencing until I watched your videos. This ignorance makes me disappointed in myself since I’m hard of hearing.
As a hearing person I would honestly for there to be captions as it would help so many people abd make them feel more welcome
well. most deaf people almost never went to theater..
I feel like it’s my job as somebody who is only mildly disabled to mention to others ‘Hey this wheelchair ramp is blocked’ or ‘this setup is really difficult to use as a blind person’ since I feel like it’s so hard for a disabled person to get their voices heard. I wanna learn asl so I can be an interpreter everywhere I go if need be. Also as a hearing person I prefer captions on everything too. It irritates me when others don’t want them on when they help me understand the movie better.
He's handsome
Love needs no words and neither will this beautiful, powerful and inspiring man. Well Done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My son is autistic and he watches TV and movies at home with captions, but he does not like the CaptiView at the theaters.
He has also stopped going to the movies as of late.
Yes, same as below, I am a hearing person but having closed captions allows me to no miss a beat on complex dialogues,. Because English is not my second language sometimes I miss key elements of a plot. Great video Nyle, thank you for expressing the many hoops you have to jump...unnecessarily.
I absolutely love this guy... He seems so sweet and genuine... I've always wanted to learn ASL, it must be hard to only be able to communicate with a select few...
Wish I could do more to help. Learning sign and working with deaf people I often see their struggle. Just today was asking RUclips about getting cc for a video I wanted to share with my deaf friend. Luckily they have a"by speech" option. Check your settings for that option of you are interested
I don't care if he deaf he so handsome
When I clicked on this video, I was like: "What, this doesn't make sense, almost every single movie has subtitles". And then I remembered: "Oh wait, when I see american movies, it has subtitles because it is a foreign movie". It is such a simple thing, you get used to it. Here in Portugal, 99% of the movies on theaters are foreign. No one complain about subtitles. Grow up, americans.
I'm hearing and it took me awhile to get used to captions but now I dont even notice them i hope they make them more available so you and my wife can enjoy the theater more
Canada needs open captioning in theaters
It saddens me that people complain about captions. I'm a hearing woman and I use captions for everything I watch at home. I think they add to the experience and would welcome them at the movie theater. They're much less a distraction than people looking at their phones during a movie. We need to do better for the deaf community and give them better options.
My dad uses the glasses kind, He tells me they don't work most of the time.
They should have movies with captions the same way they have imax and regular movie options, my family is hearing but we put captions on everything we watch. I know some people don’t like captions but if we have captions and non captions options it’d benefit a lot of people including the deaf community.
I prefer captions. I can hear but sometimes I may not understand what someone said and I might miss something. It’s just easier for everyone to enjoy the movie when there are captions. And especially when there are people being rude talking during the movie.
Could you add a transcript to make this video accessible to Blind and DeafBlind people? Thanks!!
I’d love all movies to have captions. I can’t hear out of one ear, and between loud people, loud food, lower movie volumes, and sometimes not the best audio systems, it’s hard for me to understand what actors say. I used to go to 12-15 movies a year at the theater. I haven’t gone to many at all, lately, because I want to be sure I can hear them. At home, every single tv show I watch is close captioned. Perhaps, with all the foreign movies with subtitles on Netflix and other streaming services, subtitles will become more the norm in theaters.
I never understood the beef against captions. I'm a hearing person and even so sometimes the dialogue isn't clear. I don't mind captions at all and sometimes even use them myself.
Interesting... In Egypt captions/subtitles are in every movie just like that
I'm older HH and wear hearing aides. I watch TV with captioning so I don't have to have the TV real loud. There are so many people like me (older and HH). It would be nice if they had one screen with a new movie a few times during the time it's running. Maybe one in day and one at night different days. After all.... all money is green
Told me hearing people at operas use the glasses because in French and German language but yeah agreed at movie theatre subtitles on screen easier and less alienation.
I like the thought of having my own theater that would make literally any kind of person comfortable. For the deaf situation their could be a movie room where it has the captions, which will be cheaper than the one where it doesnt, So those same people he talked about wont walk out. It's fair enough
I can hear and I always have the captions on when I watch movies or TV at home. I get distracted easily and often miss something if not. The captions help me stay focused. I probably would like if they had captions on movies. People who don't like it should just deal with it so deaf people can also enjoy the movies.
I actually prefer any type of video with captions because I feel it MAKES the experience. Without it, I feel I wouldn’t value what they are saying as much.
Seriously people were annoyed of captions?.....in Malaysia we always have subtitles for every movie.
I am a hearing person but I can't watch anything WITHOUT captions. I speak English fluently, but I realize that I miss out a lot on the dialogue because I THINK I know what they were saying when I really didn't lol. Like Harry Potter for instance, watched it when I was a kid, watching it now as an adult with captions and I'm like "wait.... THAT'S what they were saying?!!" It's like a whole new world lol.
I have profound hearing loss.
Can you wacth movies ?
Wait is this a thing in America? 🤦🏼♀️ I'm a hearing person and I've literally never been to the movie theater without captions. And when I watch movies at home I also always use captions. I've just gotten used to it I guess. I feel like I might miss something if I don't have captions. And if the movie I'm watching offers deaf captions, I turn on that too. I like it when it says in a horror movie "scary sound intensifies". Makes it even scarier haha
In India, every Hollywood movie and even some regional movies have subtitles now. I guess because english is a second language here, people enjoy the movie better with subtitles because many times, even people with hearing don’t understand some words that the actors mumble or the accent is difficult to understand ! Come to India, and I will take you for a movie !😄
I can hear but I would actually like captions I always turn them on during Netflix In case there's a quiet scene that I can't hear lol
Open caption also helps with literacy. I grew up in China where almost every TV program had open caption. You don’t even think of it as a nuisance because it’s what you grow up with
Nice
English is not my first language and it helps to have captions even for the hearing community!
I can hear but I like to watch movies with subtitles
I could never be in his shoes
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yo this dude is from America’s Next Top Model cycle 22
I'm not deaf but I don't mind seeing open captions on my screen - whether it's on my laptop or in a movie theatre. Not a big deal and it allows everyone to engage with the dialogue. Besides, how can you say no to that face?
There should be a law that says the theaters have to use captions for some of the viewings. And no, 10 am on a Wednesday is not acceptable
It would be great if we could see him signing the whole time. If his hands are out of view, we can’t see what he’s signing. Yes there are English subtitles, but it’s not the same.
Deaf people are more than equal ti our community
I don't get what the big deal wth open captions is. I wouldn't mind.
I am hearing and I watch captions, maybe I am ADD
I'm not deaf, but I'm autistic.... I wish I wanna know to speak sign like him
by open caption, does he mean subtitles?
By glasses, he's referring to 3d glasses right?
Golden Squatch No, Captions glasses. It’s a glasses device that allows you to read captions while watching movie.
It is a proven fact ..... he probably can't hear running water
I think the suggest Nyla makes is reasonable. I wonder if the money-grubbing theater owners will be kind enough to do it.
Nyle, that is. Auto correct is often NOT correct!
C. J. OnGee deaf people are SUCH a minority, that even if there were closed captions, maybe not even one person would be deaf. And to be honest, closed captions really are pesky. I mean, at least they have a solution to the problem, but even that can’t satisfy them. It’s not because "the money grubbing theatre owners are unkind", it’s because they need to cater to the majority, they need to make the majority happy, it’s kind of unreasonable for only ONE person to be catered to. It’s just logic, really.
@nowthisnews Next time you do the wonderful work of elevating a deaf voice, please do us all a favor and don't crop off their hands when they are signing. You're effectively cutting off his tone of voice for those who understand ASL.
That's 😢
Watch him try sign language in a hood :D
Lol 😂 he’ll be fine though
In the hood, white person would still be more respected but a blk man doing sign would probably get shot.
Pwat That’s not how the hood works...
Pwat what hood are you talking about? Lmfao
@@skinnty6800 Certain hoods are like that, I've seen it.
I wouldn't have come close to guessing about 5% of the world population is deaf.
carstereobandits that’s still a VERY small percentage.
He needs the mirrors
Show them the finger nyle
Well they gotta cater to the majority I guess.
To answer your question Nyle, YES. The hearing community's movie experience IS more important than deaf people's movie experience because the hearing community makes up like what? 99.5% of the population while the deaf community make up only .05% of the population. Its WAY MORE IMPORTANT to cater to 99.5% of the population than to the .05% like dude, this is just statistics...
phantomakreuz as a deaf person, I agree.
I'm confused by your math, what is the other 0.45% of the population?
Andrew Bushnell yeah, I guess they wrote it wrong, but I believe they’re right.
Andrew Bushnell 99.5 meaning 99.50 and .5 meaning .50
Yeah, I know. I’m deaf & I acknowledge that but honestly deaf people are tired.
Just don't say that your proud that your deaf?!?
The Wolf Yeah, ikr, that kind of sounds weird.
What bout old people who are losing their hearing and vision both? Oh wait, this is a hot deaf guy, he’s being discriminated against lol gtfo
Sarah Adams true.
We haven't invented far enough ahead with refreshing Braille displays, but my hope is someday that happens so people who are blind and / or deaf can still watch like everyone else. I'm autistic and wish there were captions because captions help me process what people say a little better and I was glad Nyle mentioned that.
Can you speak up? I can't hear you.
I asked a disable person to walk.
