I met a deaf brother and sister in disney, watching a show called Fanatasmic with the rear captioned window. I have to say, Disney does a better job providing closed captioning for the deaf than my school or any other movie theaters.
Anyways, I was talking to the deaf brother and sister (I didn't get their names..woops!) and they told me that ADA recently made a law that movie theaters must have CC, and if they say that they have CC available in the newspaper for a specific movie and then say no when you request them for it, you can complain to ADA and that they will give you free tickets to the movie along with the available captioning. I don't know if this is entirely true, because I haven't heard about this.
My friend who's deaf said he already know about this, but i was curious of why i am not informed about this. This is something i really was looking for because as everybody here on all deaf, we want to be able to go to movie theaters with CC. I just hate waiting for the DVD. I really want to see Breaking dawn part 2 with my mom and i just know for a fact that it will not have closed captioning because movie theaters refuses to buy the rear view captioning because of losing money. But they wouldn't be losing money since a ton of people goes to theaters to watch a movie. I don't know what they're worried about.
