My first 4DX film was Fifty Shades of Grey. There were a lot of water squirts and audience exited wet.
loooool
🤣
Giggidyyy 😂😂
🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I locked my head into the seat for 4DX Topgun Maverick. It felt like I was in the planes with them. The Gforce was so sick!
But my 1st 4DX experience was The Batman 2022 and that was on a whole other level. Batmobile chase scene is incredible and will be hard to beat. So good I went 3 times in 4DX for the Batman!
Batman IMAX is also beyond imagination
Which is best top gun Maverick in 4dx or Batman in 4dx please reply asap
@@siddeshum3511 topgun.
Dam wish I knew about 4dx for these movies, I didn't even go see Top Gun, buy would of went for this experience
Do you have to weigh a certain amount for 4dx
I only paid $16 to see this movie in 4DX, I loved the experience, I probably wouldn't do it for just any movie, but it was great for Top Gun. I didn't notice the sound problems you were describing at my theater, but I did notice the projection quality was really good, the cleanest, brightest picture I've ever seen at a cinema. Would recommend for this movie.
One 4DX near me has a real clean, bright screen. The other one has a dim screen, and they've even misframed the movie on the screen once so the image was bleeding off the sides. 🙄
So there was no 3d goggles ?
I paid 3.9 USD for it hehe
Gonna to see Avatar 2 in 4DX
@@relentless873c’est la Suisse bébé, 28 francs, so about 30 US dollar 😅
Personally, I thought Top Gun Maverick in 4DX was superb. The movie and 4DX go so well together. I really felt like I was immersed in the movie,especially in the action/jet scenes.
I enjoyed it so much that I've been twice to view it in 4DX.
Bet that was really cool! We’re there different aromas?
Experiencing this in 4D is incredible, the perfect way to watch this masterpiece
I saw Top Gun Maverick in 4DX yesterday and it was one of the best cinema experiences I've had in my life. I was uncontrollably smiling during some sequences out of joy and excitement. Definitely go try it out!
I just watched Top Gun: Maverick in a 4DX theater in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Unbelievable experience!
Kinda sounds like the old tactile D- box buttkicker experience. Pretty cool Shane thanks for the review!
The screen width is 1.85. It's common these days for theaters to have 1.85 common-width screens which means most movies will be letterboxed. No masking, so that means you can see the parts of the screen that are letterboxed. **Gets on soap box** Back in my day screens had masking that got wider for scope movies (common-height), not smaller like at home on a TV. **Gets off soap box**
I was about to complain about the letter boxing too thanks I went out of town and called ahead of time so asked if there would be masking the manger said yea I get there no masking just black bars on the top and bottom I was so mad im not going back there the one in Houston has masking in 4dx but the rear speakers don't work that's why I was looking for a new 4dx theater
Masking is bad. Alternately, I saw Lion King (new version) in a Dolby theater. LK is 1.85 so there were black bars on sides. I complained and learned that theaters no longer mask with curtains or whatever at least at AMC. HOWEVER - I have an alternate take on this. Yes, masking (and inherent "black" video on sides or top and bottom) is annoying, but it also means that you are going to see the film full-frame - you're literally seeing the edges. I don't know how many times back in the 35mm projection days where they would screw up the aspect ratio, remove top and bottom, sides, etc. In fact, I just saw Maverick in a Dolby theater in NJ and the genius projectionists somehow zoomed in the image and lost a bit of the sides and headroom. How they did this, I have no idea, but I saw the film in another Dolby theater (both 2.35) and it had the proper headroom. So when I see the pillars or letterboxing, I shrug and say at least they're projecting the entire image.
@@nickfalzone7955 no masking is trash on 35mm the movie always fit the screen this tv approach of no masking is useless I quit going to theaters that show black bars and don't use masking since switching to digital most time If I see them on screen I leave and get a refund I didn't come to the movies for a big screen only to have half of it cut off use making and reframe that screen no TV's at the movies for me !!!!!
@@nickfalzone7955 I saw the Raiders of the Lost Ark 4DX reissue and they had the picture so zoomed in that it bled off all 4 sides of the screen onto the wall and curtains. I went out to complain during the movie and they said they'd fix it and never did.
The 4DX theater here has chairs that are static so you can sit in those if you don't want the chair to jerk you around. It'll still have all the sensory effects just not the actuators in the chair
Best 4dx experiences ever:
-Gravity (Sandra Bullock/George Clooney)
-Inception
-Any Fast and the Furious film
-Titanic 3d
-Tenet
-Jurassic Park 3d
🤔🤔🤔
Peninsula was a really good 4DX experience.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters for me.
Weird, I saw it an early screening in 4DX at Regal Seattle, and the sound was really good, screen size looked good from 2nd row back. The only thing missing was snow effects, but other than that, it was an awesome experience, and Top Gun was made for this format.
My Maverick screening had no snow or smoke plumes. I don't know if my theater just shut it off or if Maverick didn't have smoke effects. They've had it for other movies in the past.
@@jedijones There was this one event with snowflakes but that is all…
Very good review! I work at a regal. No 4DX theaters at my work but I definitely have always wanted to try it. Also top gun was awesome!!
I just watched Top Gun Maverick today in 4dx and it was awesome. I already saw the movie before so I wasn't distracted or missing anything in terms of plot and was anticipating how certain scenes would implement the 4dx. My first 4dx experience.
Sounds really fun, but I agree the vibration when Tom cruise was walking is a bit much and unnecessary🤣🤣
Saw this in 4dx also and I 100% agree with every point you made. The thing that blew my mind is the theater using klipsch speakers sounded awful...and I have a 15.6.6 setup composed of klipsch that all sounds incredible
my experience was very good in 4DX. Probably one of the best 4DX movies I have ever seen. I had no issues whatsoever in my theater. Everything was great honestly.
Spot on about actuators in home vs theatre.
I'm a big fan of 4dx. I think there's a difference in the theatres as the issues you mentioned aren't really there where I am.
My first experience of 4DX was a movie double-bill, Fast & Furious 6 and 7 in 2015. Two tickets somehow cost less than a tenner which was too good a deal to pass up trying out this new format out. Next movie I watched was Justice League in 2017.
It is worth experiencing at least once imo but I would only consider it over other formats including IMAX with Laser (my preferred choice) for certain movies which I think would really benefit from the extra sensory effects. Top Gun: Maverick is one such movie which I think would have been a great experience in pretty much all formats: IMAX, ScreenX, and 4DX. Saw it twice at the cinema, first in IMAX with Laser then on a standard scope screen. Loved it both times.
👍🏻👍🏻
How do you know if your IMAX theater has laser? Mine in Ontario California sucked because it literally had no bass at all, just LOUD. The screen was nice of course because it was an IMAX filmed movie with some scenes being full screen. So is laser a new thing with IMAX?
@@JollyGiant1213 It's a different theater setup. They'll advertise it.
I saw top gun in 4D & now Jurassic World 3…. I loved it !! It was so awesome. I recommend
Worth every penny, best time I've ever had a movie theater.
Great review! my best 4dx experience must have been onward. it was a really cool ride. Have you heard anything from brass tax for a while?
Imagine watching Titanic in 4DX 😂😂😂
For No Way Home the movement was subtle and the wind fx and the light flickers during spell really added to the experience. For Sonic 2 the movement was a bit overdone but the fake snow was cool. Curious to hear your thoughts on ScreenX if you've been.
I saw WW84 and Aquaman in ScreenX when they rereleased them last year. I thought they were enjoyable. It adds something to the immersion to have the images on the sides. Both movies had nice color palettes so maybe that added to it. However, it's much harder to justify the premium cost compared to IMAX and 4DX, because you're just paying to add something to your peripheral vision.. All the seats in my theater had a 'new car smell' so I might've gotten high on those chemical fumes too that put me in a better mood. 😆
Going to watch 4dx tomorrow:) this helps!
I have seen this in an IMAX theater, and a normal theater. There was alot of bass, or at least enough for me to not miss any. So they probably have turned the mix down. A friend of mine that saw it in my regular theater, and he said there was lack of bass there as well.
But in IMAX it was more then enough for me.
I watched Top Gun Maverick IMAX in HK yesterday! So good! Wonder how much better is 4DX?
My best experience in 4dx was Transformers : The Last Knight, the Bumblebee vs Optimus fight scene in the alien ship in the middle of the ocean near the end is the best experience that I have been in 4DX...the water spraying & wind blowing when the Autobots is fighting with wave of the ocean smashing the alien ship is so immersive, at least for me... Since then no other movie could match the same experience in 4DX.
Yeah, it shines the most with water and wind. That benefitted Godzilla: KOTM also.
Pacific rim Uncharted top Gun Maverick are my top 3 movies in 4dx
My first 4DX-3D was recent Avatar way of water spectacular experience love it.
My 4DX theater didn't have near the effects you are speaking of. The only wind effect was at the beginning when he was on his motorcycle. We didn't even get it during the sailboat ride! Having been in a plane that was doing aerobatics (when I was much younger), it would have been nice to feel as though I was pulling Gs along with the pilots in this movie. No such luck. I did enjoy the effects of the carrier landings though. Otherwise, the moving chair was more of a distraction. I'm glad I experienced a 4DX movie, especially this one, but I don't think I'd pay the extra to do it again.
Thanks for the information
Watched Top gun in 4dx couple weeks ago, worth every Penny!!
It really seems like a roller coaster ride to me. Me I’m a bass subwoofer 🔊 fan got to have the lows or we won’t go!
And they are really well coordinated so when the lightning strikes the strobes on the walls flash, or if you hear some different explosions or certain motion effects happening during the scene, your seats will vibrate and move around so there’s a lot of different stuff happening depending on what’s happening in the scene?
Thanks so much I'm watching something like this tomorrow 😊 Now I know
There are no 4DX theaters close to me yet but I would like to give them a try. At a cost of 26 bucks though it would have to be a damn good movie for that price.
I know that DBOX seats were very pricy when they came out at $15-$16 per seat, I always got them because I wanted the best in the theater, but all of them were removed when they upgraded and installed reclining seats and went to assigned seating.
DBOX seats are expensive to buy, I know that they wanted 90k for my theater setup in my home and that was only 2 small rows. I ended up getting some a theater was selling for 5k each that went out of business and managed to get them to work with a controller box I got from a swap.
Too Gun Maverick was just phenomenal in 4DX.
You get many different types of gadgets that’s shown everywhere inside the auditorium at 40 X such as strobe lights , wall fans sprinklers, both on the walls, and on the seats, ticklers using clear, transparent whips on the bottom of the seat towards your feet, or on the front of your seats, where the rails are there is even tiny fans and mist affect emiters along with scent sprayers on the backs of the seats, there are even fog, machines and bubble makers on the walls that can be used for some parts of the movie even snow shakers for Christmas movies.
Glad to hear that you had fun we don't have that in my country😂
I've always loved the experience of 4DX and have seen 4 movies in it including Top Gun: Maverick. I have to say the sound was reasonably good in the cinemas here in Australia as there was plenty of bass and clarity throughout.
It's not always worth it for every movie but it's definitely worth checking out now and then especially when it's being advertised with a movie like Top Gun: Maverick.
I'm in Australia too and the screens are decent size, there are only 6 - 8 rows of seats in 4dx in Australia so no matter where you are the screen is big. The sound is quite loud with good bass also which means you don't actually hear the fans at any point in time. I don't know if the movie are turned into 4dx globally or locally, but I have found some are hit and miss with areas they have effects and seats moving. I've seen 32 movies in 4dx and some are good some are bad. Horror is good when they only use it for suspense, any marvel film is good with endgame and no way home being standards. There was one or 2 like the invisible man where it was just over used and didn't work, or where like you said there are footsteps where chairs are moving but as each film comes out from the big studios the better they are understanding the best way to use it. I saw jurassic world dominion last night in 4dx and would highly recommend a movie like that in 4dx.
Also it's bout the same price as a normal ticket to see it in 4dx in Australia. $29 normal ticket and $33 4dx for last night
@@scobolstudios1780 I've just seen jurassic 4dx and I'd put it in my top 5 4dx experience.ready player 1 was probably 1 of the best.never rated the sound quality in the 4dx theatre be great with 4dx and atmos.
Yea I wish they had atmos in 4dx, sadly no theatre would put all their best tech in one session haha. For me endgame was really good in 4dx too...but I see every new release in 4dx now
@@scobolstudios1780 definitely always to make money I normally go 4dx not bad price at £12 for 3d 4dx in uk when it's discount day.but I did go see batman on dolby atmos 4k laser imax screen that was good.i was gutted thort my HT atmos wasn't bad till I heard dolby atmos in theatre.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters was the most unforgettable movie I ever saw in 4DX. When Rodan creates the hurricane in the village the wind and water was insane. If any movie with hurricanes or tornados comes out, definitely see it in 4DX. I actually was falling asleep during Jurassic World Dominion because the story was so boring. That was a tough one to get through. The audience seemed like they were getting so restless, LOL.
You recommend godzilla minus one in 4dx?
I'm thinking about doing 4DX for the first time for Godzilla Minus One. I just hope it doesn't make me sick from the seat motion.
@@AceGoodheart I am trying to decide on the same.. have you seen it yet? If so whats your thoughts? (spoiler free please)
@@jamesportee1102 I have not. I read someone's comment who did see it in 4DX and they said they loved it. I think this week I'll watch it on IMAX and then next week I'll do 4DX.
@@AceGoodheart nice, I just found out theres no 4dx theaters near me anyway here in Tigard, Oregon USA... IMAX it is then on Tuesday!
I saw Jungle Cruise in this exact 4Dx theater in New Rochelle and thought the effects were pretty cool
the scent was pretty strong though at times and it didn't smell good
I don't remember how it sounded though
My first 4dx experience was 007 no time to die and I went to see top gun Maverick in 4dx. I love it but only for select movies.
I've seen this movie twice now in 4DX and I truly believe the 4DX is the best experience for this movie. After hearing you talk about the bass in your screen, me and the Mrs agree that it must've been your screen with the lackluster bass. Our screen was really loud and had great sound subwoofers. Then again you seemed a lot further back than we were. We always aim to be central and level with the screen. In this case 5-6 rows back (Row E on my second viewing) and it was fantastic. I was also confused by you saying about the seat movement outside of the Jets. I felt like it was turned off during the quieter moments in our viewing. Perhaps if you're able try another cinema with 4DX if you can? Or speak to management about the subpar bass? It may be a genuine issue no one has brought to their attention
For VR or even gaming in general, I could see the appeal of this. I never felt like I was IN a movie though, so all these effects coming at me and not the character Im watching seems kind of strange. In first person gaming or VR it would be awesome. Or there was movie that came out shot in first person perspective, Hardcore Henry, might benefit from this treatment..
I watched Guardians of the Galaxy volume 3 in 4DX one of the best cinema experiences in my life
I normally have to drive 1 hr to my closest real imax theater. This time, felt lazy and watched this in Marcus Ultrascreen that has Dolby Atmos. Average experience - I feel like real imax theater just provides that dynamic sound and bass that you feel it in your body.
I saw it in imax. Ticket was probably $20. Lots of bass. I had a good experience.
I would pay $7 more to add the tactile effects. The money doesn't matter much. But the lack of bass would be a deal breaker for me.
Which IMAX? Lucky for you my IMAX had no bass at all, just LOUD😞
@@JollyGiant1213 This is why I went to Dolby Cinema. Imax theaters are very inconsistent in quality whereas Dolby you're basically guaranteed laser projection and atmos sound. The projectionist can still make minor mistakes but in general, Dolby is going to consistently be very high quality.
@@nickfalzone7955
Yea too bad Dolby Cinemas we’re always full and now they are playing Jurassic World: Dominion in Dolby🙄😞
Seeing JW Dominion today in 3D and 4DX. Will probably be a wild ride.
If the plane bank left, physically you will feel geforce forcing you to the right 😂
No you weren't there 😂
@@therealshaneleeNo seriously, that means you’re suppose to lean left when the plane bank left
Topgun with yongsan 4dx + screen X is my most precious moment in theater
I absolutely love 4DX-especially for big dumb movies I don’t care about. But I love gimmicks. I haven’t been to that Regal 4DX since the pandemic. I gotta go again-but I noticed they’re doing 2D 4DX now. They have to remove a D.
I’ve seen 2 movies in 4DX. John Wick chapter 3 and Top Gun Maverick.
Top Gun was a much better experience and was what I was looking for out of this type of theater. I agree with the lack of bass too. It definitely felt like it needed some more, but it wasn’t absent like your experience.
I think 4dx is something to experience for the “right” movie. Top gun being one of them.
The stabbing in the back of the seat in dune was crazy
how was john wick? i’m seeing the 4th one soon and i don’t know if 4dx would be good or not, never tried it
@@tynangibson1307 the 4DX experience for chapter 3 was “ok”. I didn’t hate it and it was still a good time. It just wasn’t as good as Top Gun was. They may have a better experience for chapter 4, but I would rather go see it in another premium format like Imax.
I have been to a 4DX movie for Doctor Stranger 2 and I'm going again for Top Gun Maverick soon
$27 is pretty steep surprisingly. I really enjoy 4DX for certain movies. Where I'm from it's only $22 Canadian dollars.
For example, in top gun, most of the wind in strobe affects may take place, ranging from high speed, winds, and strobe lights from people shooting at ya and a whole bunch of stuff
I saw Top Gun in IMAX and ScreenX (Not 4DX). I must say, the most incredible experience I've ever had, is Top Gun in IMAX. That being said, the ScreenX experience was pretty neat. Well worth the small price increase over a regular cinema. Not just that, but, because of my locaiton (Nearest IMAX is 40 minutes away) ScreenX is a nice substitute, since in general its a better screen so even if the side screens are gimmickey, the overall experience is still better than a regular screen. I also loved it when the whole room lit up. But yea, IMAX was the best. Never really tried 4DX in any capacity.
How about Dolby?
I saw Black Widow in 4DX and it was great, it started snowing and every fight scene you got punch in the back.
Saw it in same theater. Wind effect was the best I felt. Too jerky on the seats, it needs to be smoothed out more. Snow effect was not working and would have been cool. Didn't see any fog either. In hind sight I should have complained after as ticket prices were up there a bit. Need to see it in Screen X next!!!!
It’s my understanding that D-Box motion is more subtle, continuous and accurate, but4DX has the scent and temperature effects and is more like an amusement park ride.
4DX motion shines with a car chase and crash because the motion is so extreme.
I've seen about 10 or so films in this format because I love a good gimmick. For me, a good experience depends more on the filmmaking than the 4DX itself. For films with lots of fluidity and clear motion, the effect is genuinely exciting. Even bad films are fun with 4DX if the implementation feels smooth. My concern with Top Gun is its frantic editing. I can't imagine it would be a good match with the violent direction shifts of the chairs.
I agree, the chair movement wasn't a great fit with Maverick. Stick to IMAX.
4DX really depends on which movie you watch. When I watched No Way Home and Doctor Strange 2, I think they utilized 4DX well. But movies like Batman, I think are too grounded to enjoy the full experience of 4DX. Can't wait to see Thor 4 in 4DX tho! But that being said, I think 4DX is a better way to watch big movies nowadays because of the unique experience. You can mimic movie watching at your home but mimicking 4DX? No way.
Hi Shane! I saw the Epson Ls11000 in the back! Will there be a review? Great video. Sounds interesting!
I got motion sickness just looking at your review. Thanks for saving me gas money.
The reason why they would have you tilt in the opposite direction of the jet banking is the centrifugal force pushes you the opposite way you are turning, but I see how that would screw with your mind
Saw Ford vs Ferrari in 4DX + ScreenX ! What a treat
And Top Gun Maverick in 4DX too, i can't get enough
I saw the Dark Knight Rises at the O2 Theatre in London, it was pretty good, not been back though.
Thank you for detailing this for as. I am probably a candidate to not see it in 4DX as I have a bad back and neck. Must say I think I'll miss experiencing it.
I watch all my marvel movies on 4DX and avatar way of water in 4DX was breathtaking! 10/10 experience
I'm nearby in Mamaroneck. I saw Top Gun in Port Chester Dolby Cinema, which was an excellent presentation. Saw it again at another Dolby Cinema AMC in NJ, presentation was not quite as good, audio levels were too loud, too much front channel, and the picture seemed a bit overcropped and slightly grainy. Goes to show that part of it is theater layout, quality of equipment, and quality of projectionist. Never been to the New Rochelle 4DX but my guess is that there are other 4DX theater which have good bass response and better seating layout. While going digital has definitely improved/dumbed down projection, you will still have theaters or projectionists that don't know what they're doing and screw it up. Only regret is that I didn't see Top Gun in Imax/Laser before Jurassic took away all the theaters. Will have to watch the Imax aspect ratio hopefully on Blu Ray.
It's back in IMAX from Friday through Wednesday.
Have you tried a ScreenX, they are also worth a go and in some ways achieve a lot more with much less. They expand the screen out to a 270° FoV.
More like they crop the footage to artificially fill the screen. It's worse than 4DX, as you essentially see less.
@@HigherQualityUploads That's not really true. The side screens are only active when necessary and the movie has custom made content to fill both sides. Otherwise they stay off. The difference in what you are able to see vs. a regular release can be dramatic. See the screen x trailer for Top Gun for instance and compare it to the regular trailer: czcams.com/video/rWLLpHiR1Hc/video.html
In one cockpit scene the regular theatrical image crops off at his helmet. Screen X goes beyond so you can see behind his entire seat.
@@opal817 For cockpit scenes in the jets, Screen X is ideal, but it really damages the viewing experience for the dramatic portions of the film. IMO Screen X is more of a video game or theme park style viewing - it's really not great for 2 hour plus action/dramas.
@@HigherQualityUploads ScreenX does not crop footage. It adds to it.
That sounds fun . . .
I would go see Top Gun Maverick in 4DX sounds awesome 🆒😎👍
Doesn't sound like something that I would enjoy since I do have a back problem. So, I assume the sound is regular 5.1 or 7.1 surround? No Atmos or any type of 3D sound?
From a musical standpoint people say AMC prime is a next level audiophile experience that nobody knows about. AMC is supposedly not making anymore of them so it's a treat when you get to experience them. All the Speakers are CBT speakers so the imaging is supposed to be quite the experience.
AMC Prime has very good sound. Picture quality used to be inferior to Dolby Cinemas but now they have upgraded to laser so the projection (at least brightness) is equal to Dolby. I think resolution and color depth is not quite as good. Prime also has chair shakers. Overall a good choice if you don't have Dolby Cinema available.
I havent been to 4dx yet but i have noticed that the auditoriums in the new rochelle regal lack bass. the imax there is huge but has very quiet subwoofers
If you want IMAX, go to AMC Lincoln Square 13 in NYC.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M lincoln square is great but sells out quick.
I saw it at an AMC Dolby Cinema and it seems like it is the best balance between Imax and 4DX. The screen in my theater was much bigger than the 4DX screen in your theater, and the audio of Dolby Cinema is incredible. Another plus of Dolby CInema is that it has chat vibration. It doesn't have all the other effects, but it seems kind of excessive.
I think Prime is better than Dolby because of the better image quality and size, sound quality about the same for both.
@@aymanriki1018 Don't think the U.S. has Prime. Just Amazon Prime. 😆
I might actually be going to the same theater that you reviewed. Didn’t you say New Rochelle New York? Did the 4DX seats have recliners? That’s what it saying on Fandango so I’m curious.
Would you please share some info about your projector mount? Looks like what I need to do. Could use some examples! Thank you so much!
Home Depot parts. Pipe wood and a flange.
i tried this first time with the new ufo movie nope iv seen the movie prior but the experience was super amazing the chairs simulating the horse galopping was so fuckign sick i loved it so much cant wait to try another movie.
Appreciate the fair and detailed 4dx review. I've seen 5 movies in 4dx and left disappointed every time even from the optimal seating I could get. maybe im 2 old and my health probs make all these effects annoying and ultimately take me out of the films I've seen. I sunk a fortune into my home theater and I wouldn't spend a dime to add any of these effects to it. it's okay 4 thise amusement park rides. Weak bass and cinemascope on a 16.9 screen 4 Top Gun 4 27 dollars ain't no way to experience this movie! you can give me 27 bucks n I'll kick your seat, blow air on you, and spit my drink on ya - jus sayin😏
🤣
Hahahah
@@vVvDepredation works best with certain movies....Ford vs Ferrari and Midway were the best up until Top Gun....Marvel movies have editing that is too fast and distracting
You are so funny 🤣 you are 5dx man you'll be very very busy if you get the job.
When I saw King Kong in 2005, the girl behind me kept kicking my seat rhythmically during the bug pit scene. The old school 4DX experience. 😂
If the plane moves left, that movement would create pressure on your right side. Simulators (your chair) are creating the tactile sense you'd feel, so the motion is opposed.
No. You’d have to be there.
Went to see Top Gun Maverick in 4DX here in Australia on the Gold Coast. The sound was full with pretty good bass but not like the VMAX cinemas we have. I find the water effects pretty distracting but the rest of the effects add to the experience. Do any 4DX cinemas have ATMOS?
I dont think so? I saw Maverick in Sydney Event Cinemas 4DX, If you go lock your head into the seat, it will heighten your experience IMO
No mention of Atmos during my sessions.
No Atmos in 4dx. Just 7.1
Hopefully there will be a punching glove popping from the front seat in action movies. That would enhance the experience even further
Or guns that pop out and shoot you with rubber bullets during gunfights.
I was at a 4d experience in Vegas before for San Andreas and it was really fun! This would be the best movie to see in 4d after seeing it twice before in IMAX. My theater has 4DX so that should be better than 4d. Also, I’m 18 and really skinny. Would my body be able to handle these movies in 4DX?
Saw Star Wars The Force Awakens and Rogue One in 4DX and it was great, no sound issues either so I am thinking it was your theater.
I paid 25 € for the 4dx + screen x experience i loved it
I wanted to see it in 4DX, but some genius in JPN distribution decided it’s hard to read subtitles, so it only available dubbed
My 4DX theater doesn't work properly. Water and scent effects don't work and the seat movements are slightly delayed. Still like it though.
I happened to be in Fort Myers, FL during the holiday and saw Top Gun in ScreenX. I believe that is the ultimate way to watch Top Gun: Maverick, because there was actually an hour worth of film shot exclusively for the format. At least at the Regal cinema I saw it in, it's a bit of a ham-fisted affair: It's a regular rectangular theater, but with semi-reflective sidewalls, and a projector aimed at each. Whenever the planes take to the air, you actually get a 3-screen panorama, which is pretty cool and immersive. The only downside (and similar it seems to your 4DX experience) is that the audio wasn't really up to modern 'premium' standards. I can only imagine how cool this could've been if they'd had IMAX-quality sound with slightly-angled sidewalls that were real screens.
Thanks for the review of 4DX. I could've seen it in that, and am glad I chose ScreenX instead. Rumble seats are cool, but I can't imagine random, noisy air-blasts in my face being enjoyable.
ScreenX absolutely blew me away. I saw it on a true IMAX screening before, but ScreenX was even better!
I was wondering if I missed out watching Top Gun in 4DX , but you reminded the only time I've done it, I thought it was a little too much!
***BTW, where did you get the hat??**
Was all those different affects running individually, depending on what’s happening in the film it makes you feel like you’re really there participating in the action, especially with those motion, gimmicks and seat, vibration the people who created 40 X movie experience I really try their best to make the situation feel real
I'm thinking if the plane's banking to the left, momentum is going to be tilting you to the right. They went for realism.
i enjoy the moving seats etc but the screens have always been low quality and really hard to see what's going on when it's a 3D movie
I have one 4DX that's too dim for 3D but then another one that looks quite good. Someone has to force the theaters to turn up the brightness.
AMC and other places do not support 4DX yet, but the only place that does support 4DX is regal
I remember that little wiggly thing at back of your legs on the aliens ride at Universal in USA back in the 90s. It was hidden in the chair though. Was a fantastic scare.
Does anyone know if this is still avaliable in UK 4dx cinemas??
sounds like they had it turned way down. my cheap 8 dollar screening had the volume turned up to 11 and the screen was big. i was in the movie. don’t need chairs to move to get you in a movie. just big screen and big volume. i do hate how the 16:9 screen is now bigger and they just letter box. it should be a CIH screen and 2.35 should be larger then 1.85
I thought the same about Maverick in 4DX. The best 4DX was Godzilla king of monsters for me and was worth it.
I don't know I feel something like this would get old relatively quickly.
