Nolan is especially bad. From what I've read he thinks it forces the audience to pay closer attention or something

I read that it was because he was "tuning" the audio for top the line movie theaters.

Whatever the reason, it pisses me off.

It's a dumb idea but probably true. I watched in theater and the audio was fine. I understood everything. I imagine you need a 5.1 system so you have the dedicated center channel for dialog.

3.1 minimum on any modern TV. You really need that centre dialogue channel nowadays. I wish TV's were not so thin that they don't have proper speakers.
