Perception of Captioning

By captioning a film that was not originally captioned, it can be viewed as a fundamental change in how people view the film. It adds an experience of reading to the film, which could distract from the visuals and is unpopular with some audiences. Captions are often marketed as a language learning tool instead of an accessibility tool, which is likely because of this perception.
