The most jolting part of the experience were the things in the seats that poked you in the back to sort of startle a jump scare. ![]() I had turned the water effects off, but there was definite misting that we felt. The snow effects seemed to be taken right out of Disney’s playbook, but they were at the front of the theater and we were towards the back so I didn’t get to verify the “snow” was actually soap. Strobe lights flashed every time there was lightning on screen. These theaters have a height requirement! Since we didn’t buy our tickets in advance, we didn’t see all the warnings and conditions on the website. The attractions Cast Member in me was horrified and fascinated all at the same time. I kept looking for some sort of safety device or ride stop. For the life of me I can’t figure out how you would go to the bathroom during one of these movies. The movie started, and I swear the movement never stopped. My favorite thing I heard, “Holy s***! This gonna be dope!” Jay and I turned to look at each other, and we could hear the rest of the audience reacting as well. Clearly, we weren’t the only first timers. The seats stopped moving as the 4DX logo popped up on screen. It pitched both side to side and forwards and backwards. I mean the entire thing tilted Star Tours style. The little sections of four seats were essentially one big bench, and the entire bench moved. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t that. The slew of trailers played like normal and then a 4DX sort of preview came on. I noticed a button on the armrest that gave you the choice of water being on or off, so I immediately turned both of ours off. I was super curious about what was about to happen. Each seat has a little foot rest in front of it, and the cup holders are super deep. Except for the back row, each row has four sections with four seats each. She picked our seats for us and off we went. I hate reserved seating so much, especially since I didn’t know what we were getting into with the 4DX. I stared at the screen blankly and asked for her suggestion. We went in to buy our tickets and the attendant asked where we wanted to sit. ![]() One night, Jay and I found ourselves at an event on International Drive that ended earlier than we expected, and we decided to catch the last 4DX showing of the evening. Fun fact: Regal Cinemas was actually founded in my hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee so I grew up going there. Regal Pointe Orlando is the only 4DX theater in town. (I honestly had no idea it was one of six in the country until I started writing this article.) Pointe Orlando is just not the most convenient theater to go to even though I’m a huge Regal fan. We kept saying we wanted to go see a movie in 4DX, but I usually do my movie watching in the little theater in Clermont or at Disney Springs. I honestly didn’t give 4DX much further thought after that. My immediate reaction was, “Huh?” 4DX is the next step in movie theaters, with practical effects mixed with seats that move. The whole thing actually sounds to me like what Walt Disney wanted to happen with the release of the original Fantasia movie. I first heard of 4DX last March when my friend told me she went to see Kong: Skull Island in 4DX.
