4D is basically a 3D movie with additional physical effects in the theater like sprinkle of water drops on the viewers, sudden changes in temperature, vibrating seats, or even moving seats, screen on the floor, roof and side walls. These physical effects are normally in sync with the movie and bring a new level of realism. Many of the 4D cinemas are found in major theme parks Steve ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Kevin Omondi" <kevin.ouma@gmail.com> | To: "Stevie Richard" <steve@sobbayi.com>, "Skunkworks Mailing List" | <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> | Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2012 9:15:46 PM | Subject: Re: Is IMAX bound to fail in Kenya . | Ok Stevie that's a new one ,,what is 4d wnever heard of that and FYI | it's a 3d screen. | On Thursday, March 29, 2012, Stevie Richard wrote: | | Fail...

Haha Steve Obbayi.....you just made my day. Are you serious??? Nyway 1050 is just too expensive. I'd rather stick with 250 at the sarit centre.

Unless am mistaken it was 250 only on Tuesdays, I usually catch the last Tuesday screening.

4D theatres have similar effects as the vibrating game controllers/joysticks. The experience is breath-taking! While watching star trek, the theatre seatsts vibrate as the space-ship takes off, you get jostled around when hit by a meteor,etc. Some even some wind turbines which blow air giving the impression of being blown by strong wind in certain movie scenes. ./bernard On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 8:38 AM, Wanjohi Ndegwa <andegs2000@gmail.com>wrote:

movie guide - www.*cinema*s.co.ke/ IMAX theartres (assuming it's the same as in the US) is the real 3D with a curved screen and you can actually turn your head to follow some scenes. Makes the eyewear 3D look shadey. For that I think the cost is worth it. The challenge will be to keep customers wanting more by bringing great movies and documentaries. An option would be to fill it up on weekdays with educational documentaries for schools. On 30 March 2012 09:42, geoffrey gitagia <ggitagia@gmail.com> wrote:

Hahaha I kid you not. I've personally been to the ones at Universal Studios, Disney World, Busch Gardens, Wonderworks and I think the most realistic one is the one at NASA Kennedy Space Center which the enter theatre is kinda a Space shuttle simulator. Basically the whole cinema itself moves, tosses, turns and at some point flips upside down.

Avengers : Assemble and The Dictator. 2 movies I would like to see in 3D. Anyway, why the choice of 20th Century? is that place kinda old now and 'down town'?

20th century had the space required for this kind of screen. The ones at the malls are normally mini-screens in comparison. And with the renovations its not quite "old" now. ./benrard On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 11:07 AM, Philip Musyoki <pmusyoki@gmail.com> wrote:

I have experienced this. They had some huge rats running on the floor, and everyone in the cinema had their feet up, to avoid been bitten. The effects are so real, its amazing. Tito On 29 March 2012 22:56, Steve Obbayi <steve@sobbayi.com> wrote:

Had a five minutes 4D experience on a National Geographic movie. Very enjoyable, but I'm sure kids will cry to death, especially when the rats move past your legs and the special effects make you actually feel the rats. I have to admit I had to lift my feet up. When you get a chance t get a glimpse of 4D, I would recommend taking it. It's worth more than the time. On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 5:25 PM, Peter Karunyu <pkarunyu@gmail.com> wrote:

Sorry I had to revive this old thread. Apparently there is a 4D/5D theater in Kenya. I saw it over the weekend as I was exiting The Junction mall. I have no idea on pricing of tickets. The Chinese are also selling these units at around $12k But keeping in line with the original thread, is IMAX doing well or is it suffering to the 50bob movies?

@Mark an excerpt of details from one of the Chinese sellers Quick Details Place of Origin: Guangdong China (Mainland) Brand Name: Longze Model Number: 5d cinema Type: 5d cinema,Entertainment equipment General use: Commercial Furniture Color: Optional Size: According to customer's need Seat: Vibration System: Hydraulic,Pneumatic,Electric Projector: HITACH Special effect: Raining,snowing,lightling,bubble,smoke,ect movies: more than 50 pcs Display: 150 inch LCD So I believe those are the effects to be felt within the theater. If you happen to go The Junction, the theater is at the parking. I think it is a 12 seat theater, judging from the size from outside.

@ Brian I do not think the 4D theater at Junction will kill iMax. Note that iMax can only show a maximum number of around 26 movies per year which usually means the years top blockbusters - which suggests the theater will almost always have clients on opening shows. Second, the 4D theater shows are 5min each at 500/- - a good short thrill for curious shoppers - not a whole movie experience. BR/
