Why it works: This film is 90% pop culture references and puns. If you don't have subtitles on, you will miss the background jokes about The Matrix and reality TV. 5. The Lego Movie (2014) - Max/Hulu Why it works: The dialogue is chaotic and fast. Subtitles save you when Batman mumbles or when speed-rappers (like "Super Crazy") drop rapid-fire verses. 6. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) - Netflix/Disney+ Why it works: Due to the "comic book" sound effects ( THWIP , BOOM ), the CC subtitles add a whole second layer of text art. You read the on-screen text and the descriptive audio simultaneously.
