Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda jam Nason. You've heard of three D, then
there was four D. What did four D involve? Four
D involve spray and water and stuff? I think, yes,
four D movies and stuff.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Remember going to a Shrek experience at one of the
Disney things and water would spurt out from the seat
in front, so you're covered in as if something had
blown water over you.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Are you pulling a face? That sounds terrible?

Speaker 2 (00:27):
And also air like there'd be spiders that jumped out
and they'd blow air at the back of your legs
from underneath the seat. Look you jump.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
That's four D. I think that's four D. Now there's
five D. What's five D? Five D can make you
feel like you're on fire?

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Well, five D has started in China. They've pioneered a
five D theater including two more dimensions. So what it
does is you feel like you're on fire. The ceiling
in the theater has screens, so the flames of are
shown on the roof there as a fire expands, making
the experience feel more authentic. But artificial heat comes through

(01:07):
it the temperature gauge, so you're feeling hotter and the
smell of burning, so it's adding new dimensions to this
our art. Human's funny.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yes, we like this.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Real life that would be there'd be nothing more horrific.
And yet we crave the scare, which is what we
do on all roller coasters and things, don't we And it's.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Been around for a long time.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
In nineteen fifty nine they had aroma rama technology that
sent sense through a movie theaters air conditioning.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
What sort of movie would have smells? What are they're
making a nineteen fifty nine that smelled like that? Do
you remember seeing sense around? In nineteen seventy four, cents
around was used to promote the movie Earthquake.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yes, I love this.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
So this is rentowering Inferno and all. That's all those
disaster movies beside an adventure. But with Earthquake, they had
these speakers that were positioned around the cinema and they'd
be at low level, so you felt like you could
feel the building move around and bits of rubble falling.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
In the eighties, E came back with the ram around it,
but they did Odorama.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Oh that was Polyester. That was John Waters who did
Polyester starring Divine. It was smell a vision. So I
went and saw this. You scratch and sniff a card
to correspond to certain scenes in the film, As the
director himself said, I actually got the audience to smell
pooh because you scratched and sniffed and got a smell
of pooh.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Right, okay, Well that's because.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Normally if you smell that on your shoes, you don't
go what a theater experience.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Like, say, if you see in Adam Sandler's movie, you
don't need to smell anything, do you. It's kind of interesting,
isn't it. I'm not I don't know. I just want
to see a movie. I'm not really jazzed about three D.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Aren't you.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Three D kind of came and went. Remember when our
kids were younger, every movie was three D and you'd
go along and you'd put the glasses on. Well, I
think we even had glasses at home because we had
a tea. A lot of TVs had that ability to
be three D, never used it, and three D now
very few movies. I think Avatar is probably the only
three D movie. And you don't know, and watching three

(03:11):
D at home, the technology was there, but none was
that fast.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
No. I remember seeing Jaws three and that was in
three D.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
What was the storyline shark take on man.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
Yeah, it was a shark broke into like a like
a Sea World type amusement park, right, but there was
constant spear guns coming towards you as a dismembered limb
comes towards.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Did it work? Yeah? Yeah, like it was three D ish.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Yes, I guess these days because movies come out at
the cinema, but most people are going to watch them
at home, so there's no point in making them three D. Yeah,
because you're going to get more bang for your buck
if they get streamed on various services, so you may
as well just make them normally two D in the
first place.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, I don't know if you'd watch pornography on three D. Well.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
See, this is where we are now is VR VR
v R, which is where you have your goggles on
and you're fully immersed. We had a set of this
for the kids only a couple of years ago really.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
And there was skiing.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
There was an underwater one where a whale comes so
close to you, and the skiing one you people would
fall over. They fall into Jack's chest of drawers. We
had to set up in his bedroom. It's so real
and I think that's probably where the pornography is going
to come in.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
That's where it's going to come in.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, that's where people are going to be most interested.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
And we get all fluid over you. Then gee, this
technology is great. You take off your.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Goggles and that's a shame.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
What's happened. What's happened here? It's the future. Well yeah,
