Ukraine Maverick: Top Gun ... Seat and all

Yes there are movies with codes (DVD and Blu-ray) for D-Box that are synchronized for your home theater seats. They started just over 20 years ago I believe. The company making this technology is from Montreal, Quebec, Canada...my native home province.

I'm not sure how many movies exactly total today with the codes, but I do know it's more than thousand.

* That red Maverick seat would be perfect for the 4K Blu-ray release near the end of October (my guess). By then Top Gun: Maverick will seat @ #12 worldwide...top 12 of all-time...not bad, not bad @ all. It could be before, I just don't know...yet.
• Maverick could hit that seat by the end of September, with the help of PLF.
(And it goes without saying; seat #5 of all-time domestic).

This is an extraordinary accomplishment from Tom Cruise and all the crew who contributed to this flick. It's gong to make history @ Oscars night; it's inevitable.

Have you ever been in one of those seats? That sounds really cool.

No I did not. But I've read quite extensively about that technology in the late 90s and early 00s. I was a subscriber for many years to Widescreen Review.
October 2002 issue of Widescreen Review contains a very detailed and long article on D-BOX Odyssee Motion Simulation System.

But for a quick view ...
• https://www.soundandvision.com/conte...ulation-system

• https://www.theabsolutesound.com/art...home-theater-1

* The top speed in Top Gun: Maverick and the amount of G-Force experienced by these real pilots must be a total blast for us in our own homes with Dolby Atmos and our seats equipped with one of those advanced D-Box systems created specifically to propel us in the next dimension from a direct code inscribed in the Blu-ray of Top Gun: Maverick synchronized in perfect tandem for the seat we are seating in @ home.
It's the next best thing to the highly professionally calibrated movie theaters like IMAX, 4DX and the gang.

Nothing less than a 4K disc for me. This film deserves my money.

By then (Aug. 21) Maverick will be @ $680 million plus (domestic).
...Not far from the magic $700 million.

* Last the HD was set for September, and the Blu for October.

Reliable source for that digital release?
