Lastly, and most importantly, ACCESS IS A HUMAN RIGHT. Access is the law in many countries. Films should therefore have subtitles regardless of whether they're made in countries that don't speak the language of the majority.
If you think that subtitles are a major inconvenience, try reading people's lips every day for a year. THAT is a major inconvenience.

Wow. This took off. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the dialogue. As I've said elsewhere, the goal is for subtitles and captions to always be an available option, not an "either/or" issue. Everyone has different access needs. I was simply stating mine.
Seriously? 145,000 likes? Holy shit. I had no idea so many people were so passionate about subtitles. If I may offer a suggestion to the naysayers: instead of seeing subtitles as a fence obstructing your view, try to think of them as a window into another world.
A lot of people are talking about how loud snacks are. Are snacks really that loud? If so, what the hell are people eating?!
A number of people seem to misunderstand how subtitles & captions work. I'll try & clarify: Contrary to popular belief, DVDs & Blu-rays don't always have them on their menus. I sometimes get movies as gifts, & I can't watch them because they don't have subtitles.
Some people think that the captions on your TV solve everything. Unfortunately, they don't. The captions on your TV mean nothing if the shows & channels themselves don't support them. The feature must be built into the programming to begin with.
Streaming services are improving, though as has been pointed out elsewhere, sometimes the subtitles are wildly and hilariously inaccurate. Example: I once watched an episode of Schitt's Creek on Netflix, and the subtitle read "[door opens and shits]." No kidding.
YouTube needs considerable improvement. YouTube leaves it up to the individual poster to program subtitles into their videos. Most posters leave it up to the automatic captions to take care of things, & those captions are often terrible. A lot of work remains. But it's doable.
I appreciate that captioning is becoming more dynamic in live theatre as well. @AlunaTheatre’s “La Comunion” flipped a switch for me.
My daughter was 7 before she found out that not all TVs had captions. She turned into a voracious reader.
