Service for learning English from movie subtitles (there was an article on Habré a few years ago). What was his name?
I can’t remember the name of the service website where you could download subtitles from a movie or series, and, depending on your knowledge of English, the service produced a new subtitle file, where there were only a few words, to which the translation was immediately written. Those. the service needed to indicate the level of language proficiency and it processed the subtitles depending on your request - leaving the rarest and most likely unfamiliar words if the level is above average.
There was an article about this on Habré a few years ago, it began with an introduction like: "the teacher forbade watching films with subtitles in the classroom, she said that this is how we learn to read subtitles, and not listen to speech."
I remember that I used it successfully, but I just can’t remember the name or find it in my bookmarks. Or advise a similar service, please.

The service was called hamatata
I like puzzle-english-series now. It also has subs with comments.
1. Download the captions and write out all unfamiliar words from them
2. Watch the movie (without captions) and try to write down what you heard on the sheet (you can review it several times)
3. Turn on the subs and check
4. If there were slurred moments that you didn’t heard: we turn off the subs and again begin to revise the moment where it was not clear, thereby trying to make the brain "hear" the words that should be.
Profit is incredible from such an activity. The film, of course, is not to be watched in its entirety, as well as to disassemble the subs, but simply take 3-4 minutes. I listened to each replica and wrote it out, and then checked it.
I came across an interesting application for mobile Mooveez. Here is a description of how it works. The idea is interesting, but a bit pricey. If only someone would make a more affordable analogue ....
