Sounds in films... Pfffffffffffffffff....



It gets below -29 Celsius at night. The windows are covered with ice. From inside. And just a few centimeters away there are flowers opening...
The meteorologists warn people not to go out at night this weekend. Ups, I have to visit my friends. 


I was watching a film yesterday. 
I want to talk about movie sounds. I get ...well, not annoyed, but puzzled.   
Why on Earth would a computer make all those sounds while processing data, while numbers or pictures are popping up. And the best - if there's something to be downloaded. Then the machine goes buzzing. Pfrpfrrrrrrring...
I say : pfffffff. What a nonsense. One would go crazy just after a few minutes with a computer like that! 
Have you noticed, only if it's a very serious movie, there's no sound there, behind the computer actions.
And I'm not finished. The sounds that creatures make. The ones that simply can't produce any kind of sound. OK, snakes can hiss. But come on, not shriek while attacking or dying in agony!
The best is the screams of spiders! WHY??? I think it's much more sinister if it dies or sneaks up on you in silence.  
I won't mention the films. You must have seen plenty of those...
