New Yorkers, get a whiff of this.
The city’s first 4-dimensional movie experience is coming to two theaters this spring, giving viewers the chance to catch “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice” in an immersive extravaganza of sensations including shaking seats, wind, fog, rain, lightning, vibration, snow, and “scents,” according to a press release from CJ 4DPLEX, the South Korean company providing the new technology.
The superhero movie will premiere in its 4DX version on March 25 at the Regal Union Square Stadium 14 and will shake up movie lovers at Regal E-Walk Stadium 13 in Times Square beginning on April 28.
According to one review of the experience, watching a 4DX movie can be a little jarring at times, but is a fun way for moviegoers to get a taste of the thrills taking place on screen.
Viewers in Los Angeles were the first in America to experience 4DX in June 2014, and the company has already added a new dimension, if you will, to films at 228 theaters and 37 countries, according to the company.
Current movies available in 4DX, but not yet in New York, include “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, “Furious 7”, “Mad Max: Fury Road”, “Jurassic World” and “San Andreas."
It was not immediately clear what Batman would smell like.
