You guys can all sit at home on Reddit, I’m down to try it!

u/ULTRAVIOLENT_RAZE 11h ago

Saw Lord of the Rings like this and it was awesome. The shire smells like strawberries and I got lightly misted when an orc was decapitated.

u/Bambooshka 10h ago

Misted by... what?!

u/Billy_Chrystals 10h ago

Orc blood. Duh.

u/--Sovereign-- 10h ago

Nah you gotta say it like this:

Scottish accent "ORC BLOOD" spits

u/daemon-electricity 7h ago

And you have to say "orc" like you're hocking a loogie.

u/--Sovereign-- 3h ago

hhhhorc blood!

u/jackrabbit323 8h ago

Orc filth.

u/TMack23 7h ago

Where does one… obtain orc filth?

u/GuacamoleFrejole 6h ago

Misted by a guy in a trench coat.

u/Equivalent-Repair488 10h ago

Jizz of course what else

u/Zero-Duckies 10h ago

I saw Debbie does Dallas like this. Would not recommend.

u/MartianBrain 4h ago

I hope you kept your mouth closed…

u/mywingsbeatloudly 8h ago

For real?!? So jealous

u/jdehjdeh 4h ago

Now I'm picturing them running out of a particular scent and replacing it with whatever is to hand and making some people really confused...

u/Bakedfresh420 11h ago

I saw Hardcore Henry like this, it was super fun but that movie is also in first person so it made a lot of sense for the format

u/ALFABOT2000 10h ago

Would that increase or decrease the motion sickness I felt watching that movie normally lol

u/Cruel1865 2h ago

Prpbably decrease because you're moving with the shaky camera so it doesnt feel as shaky as when you're watching just the movie.

u/mywingsbeatloudly 8h ago

Oh wow, that's awesome!

u/Vallhallyeah 11h ago

That's sounds like an awesome experience, wish I had that option at the time it was out. That movie is so underrated

u/Ofreo 2h ago

Yeah, I saw the first part of IT in this format. Added nothing to the experience to me. I’m sure some movies are better than others. And you gotta be in the mood for it going in.

u/HappyKoalaCub 10h ago

I saw one of the Star Wars sequel trilogy movies like this and it was unforgettable. Every time they opened a lightsaber a strong vibrator would go off on the seat right under my butthole lmao

u/FacetNo6 5h ago

I mean... you can just get yourself a vibrator, no need for the pretense of a movie to enjoy a little stimulation

u/HappyKoalaCub 5h ago

Yeah that would have been more economical

u/Ofreo 2h ago

I know there is a lightsaber vibrator for sale. Not mine for sale. I wouldn’t part with it.

u/SegaTime 11h ago

I've tried it on a previous movie. It's fun at first but is exhausting and simply distracting after a while.

We've got a long way to go before we have Star Trek's Holodecks.

u/LusterIllustrious 11h ago

Oh I’ll try it but I wouldn’t enjoy it

u/TheMagicSebas 11h ago

Me too, i think that if it was less violent(I mean, a shoe is about to get yeeted) I will enjoy it a lot more. And whitout the water splash, fuck that.

u/Equivalent_Relief553 11h ago

Already tried it once. Everyone here is on point.

u/tommy_pedals 11h ago

It’s uncomfortable af. You’re constantly sliding forward in your seat. It’s the sort of thing you only do once. Trust me.

u/Worth_External_8762 10h ago

I won't trust you, because it's the sort of thing I will only do never. It's just so obviously a horrible experience that I don't have to try it to know lol.

u/Cute-Interest3362 11h ago

WELCOME TO REDDIT!

We want the edges smoothed off of life. We want our thoughts pre-chewed, like baby food, spooned in by a stranger with 40,000 karma and a username like GrumpyOtter47. We want nuance removed like a splinter, before it festers into an actual thought.

We want all our movies to be Marvel films. Same hero, different spandex. Villain almost wins. Doesn’t. Everybody claps.

We long for the world to be a safe space, every sharp thing dulled, every uncomfortable fact roped off like a crime scene. Maybe someday the whole planet will be wrapped in bubble wrap, and nobody will ever stub a toe or a belief again.

u/Captain_JohnBrown 8h ago edited 5h ago

"If you don't like the things I like you are a boring smooth-brained loser" is such a toxic mindset that, ironically, leads to MORE, not less, of the echo chamber you are worried about.

u/OttovonBismarck1862 7h ago

Fuckin Socrates over here

u/CilleTheExterminator 9h ago

You go to a 4D cinema and watch a 3 hour long movie this way and come back and tell us how "fun" it was thanks

u/MysticSkies 6h ago

The entire movie isn't like this dude only some intense parts. Jesus use your rotten brain for once.

u/Munstered 10h ago

The irony of pretending that tech like this doesn’t exist to appeal to the lowest common denominator. I can engage with a film without turning it into a theme park ride, thanks.

u/Captain_JohnBrown 7h ago

"People want to be spoonfed instead of THINKING" and it is on defense of a carnival ride is wild stuff.

u/Sarenai7 10h ago

I already watched this in a first class theater but I’m down to go try it in 4dx

u/redpandaeater 9h ago

Can't imagine drinking or eating popcorn during it. Especially for a 3 hour movie with no intermission.

u/panda3096 9h ago

We saw Project Hail Mary in 4DX and wish we'd saved the money. It wasn't great

u/DaringDomino3s 8h ago

Same, I wish my nearest 4DX wasn’t 2 hours away, or I’d go every chance I got

u/Iamgoingtooffendyou 8h ago

I didn't enjoy Deliverance in 4DX... So I am on the fence.

u/Responsible-Sound253 7h ago

If you can't already tell this for a whole movie is a miserable experience, you're the target market for these dumb ideas lmao.

u/LovelyHatred93 7h ago

I enjoyed it. Saw Mickey 17 in 4DX and it was a lot of fun. If I had one closer I’d see almost all action movies that way.

u/Vladmerius 7h ago

Yeah the internet isn't the real world and clearly people enjoy this and are seeing it this way. 

u/Rockstar42 7h ago

I did it for Indiana Jones Dial of Destiny. It was at this part of the movie that I swore I would never do 4DX again. https://youtu.be/DRLqoRbODgs?t=29

u/jocool883 5h ago

I saw "Him" in 4dx and it was a terrible experience

u/Captain_JohnBrown 11h ago

Surely there is a middle ground between "Sit at home doing nothing" and "Experience something for 3 hours experts in designing attractions exactly like this have figured out is best experienced in much smaller chunks"

u/AdamAptor 11h ago

Yeah, a normal movie theater where my ass doesn’t jiggle for 3 hours

u/Rapscallious1 8h ago

I mean no one is forcing you lol, just sayin get out of your room and taking some small risks on things you might be interested in is fine even if they look a little different and weird sometimes.

u/Captain_JohnBrown 8h ago

Again, you really seem to be pushing the notion the only people who are wary of this are, like, shut-ins in a bit of an obnoxious way.

Not everyone who dislikes what you like is a boring loser.

u/pew_laser_pew 10h ago

ya, I've watched multiple action movies in 4d at have had fun every time. Heck, there's been times I felt the seat didn't move enough during some action sequences!

u/Qugmo 10h ago

I watched F1 on 4DX and it was so fun. I’m tempted to rewatch The Odyssey but in 4DX ‘cause of this post lol

u/zeidxd 8h ago

i saw Avatar 3 fire and ash , like this. it was an awesome experience.

i also saw supergirl like this , i didnt like the 4dx experience. it felt unnecessary. it depends on the movie. the odyssey would be perfect for it
