4DX - What Is It And Would Spielberg Approve?

Will 4DX Shake Up The Cinema Experience? A few days ago I was lucky enough to attend a gala opening of a 4DX screen at Cineworld, Spytty in Newport South Wales .  Actually, the cinema is the first in Wales to not only have a 4DX screen but a Superscreen and Screen X too. What is 4DX? But I was there for the 4DX and this would be my first taste of this latest experience.  So what is 4DX?  Well, if you've been to a theme park and you've been in one of those special movie showings  like the Terminator at Universal or The Muppets at Disneyland where you feel the chair move, get sprayed with water and have wind blown in your face then you are only half way there. I say half way there because the effects that you experience for a movie at Cineworld seem to be more clever and intense.  I was there to watch Midway from the ID4 director, Roland Emmerich so I was expecting a lot of dog-fights and ocean scenes.  I was not disappointed.  A plane woul...

Movie Review:"Dark Fate" Is The "Force Awakens" of the Terminator Series

TERMINATOR: DARK FATE Starring Linda Hamilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger,  Mackenzie Davis,  Natalia Reyes, Gabriel Luna, Diego Boneta Screenplay by David S. Goyer & Justin Rhodes & Billy Ray Directed by Tim Miller Reviewed by Patrick Gibbs   Out of Four It's been 20 years since the release of Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace , and a lot of disgruntled fans of the original trilogy are still trashing it, and many enthusiastically embraced The Force Awakens as a return to form (albeit one that played things very safely and covered very familiar territory). But whatever your opinion of the prequels, there's no denying (okay, no legitimate denying) the fact that the franchise belongs to creator George Lucas and it was his right to take it in the direction of his choice. But that's not the case with 2003's Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines or its subsequent sequels/reboots, all of which were done without the involvement of writer-director James C...

Watch: Indiana Jones With A CGI'd Tom Selleck Face

Watch Tom Selleck's Face Added To Various Scenes In The Indiana Jones Movies Fans of The Bearded Trio are a knowledgeable lot and there is no doubt that the majority will know that Tom Selleck was originally slated to play the role of Indiana Jones, not Harrison Ford.  When CBS decided to pick up Magnum, Tom was taken away from being an archaeologist and destined to become a private investigator.  However, there are videos of Tom's auditions for Indiana Jones on the web and you can catch a glimpse of one in the video below: But now, the clever folks over at Sham00k using their "Deep Fake SFX" technology and a lot of talent have placed Tom Selleck's face on various scenes from the Indiana Jones movies so you no longer have to wonder what that Indiana Jones scene would have been like with the moustached actor at the helm.  All we need now is Higgins to replace Belloq and we are done.

A Retrospective Look Back At The Movie STARCRASH

Taking us back to the early 80's is Rhys Thomas who reminisces about a classic and often forgotten sci-fi classic, Starcrash. Flicking through the DVD's in a local second hand shop I stumbled on one I'd never seen or heard of before; Starcrash. With a cover that featured a bikini clad beauty with a laser gun, something resembling a Cylon, David Hasselhoff holding a lightsaber and the tag line "Star Wars meets Barbarella in the ultimate inter-galactic adventure"; I had to have it! The opening shot of the film did not disappoint, imagine the opening shot from the original Star Wars movie, the vastness of space with a great big space ship flying over your head and onto the screen leading to the big reveal of the ship and its scale, now imagine the exact same shot but this time with a ship made by Gerry Anderson, filmed on a shaky hand held camera filmed in front of a back-lit black screen with holes in to represent stars. If the thought of that appeals to you t...
