Easy to compensate for poor film making by distracting with a LOUD soundtrack.
Easy to create fake drama and excitement with a LOUD soundtrack.
So, easy to keep the budget down with a LOUD soundtrack.
Nolan seems a master at it (DK Rises was terrible and relied on a LOUD soundtrack).
As for LOUD concerts, most sound guys are nearly deaf, seemingly not too
bright and nobody wants to deal with them, so they can be sloppy and lame.
I seldom go to theaters anymore due to LOUD soundtracks.
We've been stuck with dumbass sound guys for decades: THAT'S not going to change.
