Captioned Movie Trailers

You know those movie trailers? Wish they were captioned?
Fear not. You can find them captioned on billcreswell, one of the blogs that I visit. Bill Creswell is ideal because he works for a theatre that provides Closed Captioning for those who are deaf and hard of hearing, and Descriptive Audio for those who are blind and low-sighted. I know there are captioned trailers on Google and other places, but you kind of have to dig for them.
I kept seeing this trailer for “One Missed Call” and wondered what the heck the main female character was hearing on the cell phones. So I hopped online and checked out billcreswell’s blog. There it was. She was hearing the sounds people made before they died. Now I’m satisfied with the knowledge.
Little things like this leave a big mystery to me and I just have to know what it is.
I thought I’d pass on the information!

I most grateful for information concerning captioned film trailers and extras.
It is frustrating to me, a film lover with hearing impairment that involves severe speech discrimination deficit, that i cannot hear the directors’ words, interviews with players, or over-voice explanations.
thank you,
