"I'll be taking headphones in!"
One of the problems with the aerial scenes is that yo 'feel' the sound rather than hearing them
"I find the sound in cinemas far too loud."
As an avid cinema-goer, I totally agree - especially in the Multiplexes
Pat and I have complained on numerous occasions and have ben told that they have to 'pump up the volume' to cater for the hard-of-hearing
I suspect my hearing has deteriorated because I have spent a great deal of time in cinemas
A bit of a Catch 22 really!!
I suppose it's a step up from when I first experienced Cinemascope 'Charge of the Light Brigade) in Liverpool and was advised by the joker in the ticket office - "Don't sit in the front row Wack - you'll end up covered in horse-shit".
