Have you seen the internal dialog threads on reddit? Before them I was not aware that there are people that don't have an internal dialog. But, there are, and the number has increased.

I'm showing my age, but not having an internal dialog used to rare, and a sign there was an issue. When people started talking about the dumbing down of education no one listened. And here we are. It's my opinion that no internal dialog is part of this, and I believe they knew what they were doing in the same way they knew masks on early childhood learners would hinder their emotional intelligence development. But, they did it anyway.
There is a study done on inmates regarding internal dialog that I can't find. But, it basically said they were that way because something bad happened to them. If you look up reddit threads on the topic, that's where I learned it.
Although, the case could be made that no one could compete with Sir Patrick Stuart in that way... I don't think the audience has the attention span to watch a film like that these days.
The Chinese market is an issue in itself. I'm not sure if you're aware, but most of the time the Chinese version is completely different than ours. Especially when lgb is involved. China even made femboys illegal. China is not having the woke agenda, and they're such a money maker that studios bend over backwards to meet their standards.
I've been watching mostly old movies lately. Usually I listen to podcasts while I'm doing something else.
How do these people read if they dont have an internal dialog? i thought most people could think faster than their mouth could move. Maybe when you are 2-3 years old you read each word at the speed you would say it outloud because you are saying it in your head, but once you get better at reading you no longer sound out the words in your head.
I remember a reddit thread that 5 various definitions of an apple, from a simple outline to a really low resolution one, to one in full detail with the characteristic spade shaped jagged edge leaves. It asked which one can you visualize in your head. And most of the people responded that they cannot visualize it at all.
No inner dialogue and no ability to visualize. They are literally NPCs.
When I read a good book, it's like a movie in my mind. When I listen to good lyrics it's like a movie in my mind. I have always been this way, but I also remember taking turns reading aloud in 3rd grade, and mad minutes. ( timed math) Both of which were removed due to feelings.
I'm showing my age again, but I was listening to this song ( it's Crime Story by DMX) And someone told me it was boring. You don't even have to like the man to appriecte that this song is a musical movie.

My elders bemoaned that I didn't get the education they got. I didn't get it until my kids didn't get the education I got.
you see this all the time in western cinema.
LGBT characters, or characters that the woke Pedowood wants to promote [black] are made ancillary characters in their big budget movies. Those characters have no purpose to advance the plot in a movie and can easily be deleted in the Chinese version without a continuity issue.
You saw this very prominently in the new Star Wars movies, John Boyega or whatever his name is, black stormtrooper guy, played absolutely zero part in advancing the plot of the movies. He wasnt even allowed to die a heros death: sacrifice himself to save others, by flying that rat-trap skiff thing into the cannon charging to break the door at the Rebels last stand base. He literally had no point in the movies.
When George Lucas kept saying he had nothing to do with the new work, we should have known.
i like Georges depiction of Watto and his hilarious parallels
