Our local theaters have the cup holder device. I found it worked OK, but had to do a lot of adjusting to get it in the right space. I've only tried the captioned glasses at an exhibit at an HLAA convention. The people seemed to prefer those.
All those movies have built in closed captioning. In some areas, folks have advocated for those closed captions to be 'open' for a few performances. That's on my agenda for advocacy 🙂
Like you, I always have the captions on my TV, even with streaming. I guess I'm just so used to it that it's 'my normal'. Also grateful that my family members have adjusted to it being there.
Does anyone complain about the captions you enjoy?

Most of the time we don’t all watch the same thing. If my hubby and son watch something I’m usually either reading or playing on my phone. I don’t like the shows they watch. When we do watch something together it is usually sports and I don’t like captioning on for sports anyway. I usually watch my shows after they go to bed and turn on the captioning then. But if we do watch movies together they will turn it on for me but that is usually not very often we do that.
