Sensurround, it was just a speaker in the seat.

Posted by beach cruiser on November 13, 2019 at 23:34:01:
only an audiophile would care, but I remember a small newspaper article about the sensurround system installed in the chinese theatre for the movie Earthquake.

Paper said the cerwen vega woofers in the seats were getting hot and failing, they were all replaced with JBL . Makes sense, those old theatres used the voice of the theatre stuff, which would lead them to believe the other products were also top quality, I suppose.

The thing that made the 76 midway a major cut above was the inclusion of actual war footage, in color. You had the stars stomping around, then had these these action shots of some poor bastard loosing a wing and rolling over to start his crash, and it is not CGI. Real fighting and dying is not often woven into a hollywood blockbuster.

I don't think this new film was planned as a block buster, but how would I know. All I know is that it is tough to make a good movie, and there are many a slip between the cup and the lip.
