by Daniel Herrera

It seems lately with the advent of the new ever evolving 3-D technology, companies are looking for more ways to completely immerse you in your movie watching experience, and D Box it seems is the latest technology that seems to break out of the pack.

This weekend marks the first film to be released using the new Technology as Fast and Furious makes its test run in 2 theaters across the country. Those of you with access to the famous Manns Chinese Theatre in Hollywood and Ultrastar Surprise Point 14 in Arizona, will be the first to test the new technology. D Box is a new technology usually built into your theater seat that is carefully programmed to vibrate and gently shake according to what exactly is going on during the film or game that you are viewing. All cues are programmed differently per what ever game / movie you are watching at that time having every viewing be different than a different film. The box is programmed using 3 different cues roll, heave and pitch which will either make you move backwards or forwards, side to side or up and down as well from the vibrations during certain action scenes. The box is also available for home use and to date there are currently over 850 titles that use this service.

Some of the films currently available for use with this service currently include:

Bolt Death Sentence Pineapple Express

The French Connection The Rundown Eagle Eye

Max Payne Donnie Darko Bourne Supremacy

Wanted Children Of Men Wall-E

Kung Fu Panda Sunshine Bruce Almighty

Hancock Twister I Am Legend
