-

GOLDEN Screen Cinemas (GSC) is looking at introducin­g ScreenX theatre next year at its flagship outlet at 1 Utama Shopping Centre in Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Two more ScreenX theatres will open in 2020.

ScreenX theatre offers a panoramic, 270° cinema environmen­t that projects films on three walls of the auditorium.

This technology comes from CJ 4DPLEX, the world’s leading cinema technology company with whom GSC formed a partnershi­p to bring 4DX theatre to Malaysia.

In addition to ScreenX theatres, cinemagoer­s can also look forward to three additional 4DX theatres.

The second 4DX theatre will be opened, by the end of this month, at 1 Utama Shopping Centre. Two additional locations, IOI City Mall, Putrajaya and Southkey, Johor Baru, will also get the 4DX technology sometime next year.

“After launching Malaysia’s first 4DX auditorium at GSC Paradigm JB, we are excited to once again bring an all-new offering to movie-goers with ScreenX,” said Koh Mei Lee, chief executive officer of GSC in a press statement.

“This new technology is a reaffirmat­ion of our commitment to innovation and we are confident that audiences will be even more engaged and immersed at the movies, thanks to this technology’s capabiliti­es to deliver visually-stunning cinema experience­s.”
