    The 4th dimension isn't time.

    But it isn't this either.

    I don't think they are trying to use it literally.

    Seems like a rather stupid gimmick to me. I can't imagine sprinklers being immersive in the slightest.

    It's not. The 4th dimension is the W axis.

    How about that scene where the cougar-like stuff starts attacking the soldiers, would you mind if I crawled under your seat and bite your legs?

    Disney does something like that during a few of their shows and it creeps me out to no end.

    It's not so much kinky as it is childhood-killingly disturbing.

    This isn't 4D.

    This is an easy way to get twice the amount of money from tickets, apparently.

    Wow thats just plain ******ed...if anything I feel that'd take away from the movie going experience.

    I don't want to be freezing in AC because I got fukin sprayed with water and now my nice shirt is wet not to mention my popcorn is all soggy now. And most of my food being wasted from being shook around and the like.

    I thought Korea had learned time travel when I saw 4D. I cant wait for movies to be in 45D. Now that would be intense.

    Its not really 4D... its more of an immersion factor. I really wouldn't call what they are doing adding another dimension to the film. My question is... Would these effects work in a movie like Jackass 2? Cause I'm sure everyone would want to smell what they are doing on screen. MMMMMM

    all screenings have the 4th dimension in them

    you are older when you walk out than when you walked in.

    wadda they do in korea? zap you with a raygun to make you instantly sixty at the end of the movie and shout "HAHA! SEE YOO RIKE DAT HUH ROUNDEYE?!! YOO PUNY GOVOMENT NOT HAVE FAW DEE LIKE MIGHTY KOWEA GOVOMENT HAHA!"

    nah but seriously sounds naff to me.

    /unimpressed. (as usual)

    wondering when this will show up in Canadian theaters. If it does then tons of people would love to watch it in 4d.
