here's two seemingly random facts about me one i have an OLED tv in my living
room which i got a great deal on an auction and two
i turned 30 this year these things taken together mean that i have less and less
reason or desire to ever leave my house especially to go to a movie theater
however this video is sponsored by cj4d plex because they are working to change
that with a whole new theater experience with screens that wrap all around you
chairs that sync with the action on screen and a boatload of sensory effects
including wind water and even smell
let's start the show and see if the tickets are actually worth the extra
eight dollars
so to get your butt off the couch and into the theater cj40plex is expanding
the moviegoing experience way beyond what you're used to
they actually have two different offerings one called screen x and one
called 4dx let's start with screen x screen x extends the screen of the movie
all around you and the main content of the movie still stays on the main cinema
screen so you don't have to worry about looking over your shoulder so that you don't miss anything that would be
annoying instead it just increases the immersion and scale of the experience
because the action's all around you vehicles whipping past you in a car
chase or if you're watching say the live aid concert part of the bohemian
rhapsody movie you get the feeling of being in the crowd surrounded by 72 000
screaming fans and it doesn't matter if you sit at the
back or the front of the cinema because they actually add the gray textile
material that they project on all the way to the back of the room and in the
theater that i'm sitting in the screens actually went past the back row of seats
so you can count on your entire horizontal field of vision to be filled
with 270 degrees of action now the other experience and these are
both already available in the us by the way is 4dx this is a suite of up to 22
century experiences beyond what's provided by hollywood for starters the
seats are on a giant rail and can move with three degrees of freedom while also
rumbling it's really effective at giving you the feeling of getting thrown around
in the back seat of a car during a car chase for example the chairs are super
wide and plushy including the armrest and they also have some hidden tricks
like blasts of air that tickle your ankles and seriously freaked me out
during the giant ant part of our demo and there's also a bar that
emits smells now thankfully we are only subjected to
springy garden smells in our demo but this is the type of thing that you dream
about as a kid but never really expect to exist in real life well it may not be
called smell-o-vision but it's definitely here then in front
of you after a generous amount of leg room there's a bar that i may or may not
have used as a footrest that blows wind at you which was really awesome during
the flying scenes and another time when the windshield of our car got ripped off
exposing us to the elements and this bar also even sprays water
now don't worry it's only a mist and i was completely dry at the end of the
demo and you can even turn it off with a button on your armrest if you don't want
it but man does that ever wake you up so what kind of content can you expect
to see in a theater like this well they cover about 40 to 50 movies a year
including big blockbusters like star wars and avengers but it's great for
anything with vehicle chases hand-to-hand combat is awesome and
apparently even horror just imagine a jump scare with the additional effect of
the seat rumbling or pressurized air which can really feel like a touch and
dare i say miss spraying on your face to simulate a blood splatter
now the experience that i had here at ces was a combined screen x and 4dx
experience something called 4dx screen that's not available in the us yet but
it should be on its way in the next two years until then there's already over 70
cj40 plex screens in the us alone and there's even a few in little old canada
