Sound engineering is expensive. Actor retakes are expensive. Fixing dialogue in post production is expensive.

All studios are cheap and trying to squeeze as much profit as possible. They won't pay to do sound correctly.

This actually makes me feel better haha. I always felt thay my English is STILL not good enough, even after 5 years of living in an English speaking country, to fully understand dialogue on screen.

Also, props to you for scoring that username
