Cineplex just announced that Scotiabank Theatre (the one in WEM) is going to get a massive new theatre screen for the premiere of Star Trek Beyond on July 22nd. Here’s what’ll happen when you see the movie:

From Cineplex:

“In partnership with Barco, Cineplex Entertainment (“Cineplex”) today announced that three Barco Escape auditoriums will open in Canada this summer.  These specially designed, multi-screen cinema experiences will feature two additional side screens, creating a panoramic viewing range for guests.  The first deployment of this immersive technology in Canada, the Barco Escape movie experience will be installed at Scotiabank Theatre Vancouver (900 Burrard Street), Scotiabank Theatre Edmonton (8882 170 Street NW) and Scotiabank Theatre Toronto (259 Richmond Street West).

 

All three auditoriums are scheduled to open in time for the premiere of Star Trek Beyond on July 22, 2016, and tickets are available at the Box Office and on Cineplex.com starting today.  At the screenings, fans will discover a new kind of Star Trek adventure, with more than 20 minutes of Star Trek Beyond footage created to dramatically expand ‘The Universe’ across three screens.

 

“We are proud that Cineplex continues to lead the way by offering Canadian movie-lovers the latest in innovative premium experiences – and Barco Escape is no exception,” said Ellis Jacob, President and CEO, Cineplex Entertainment.  “This really is a new way to experience a movie and I believe our guests will love this spectacle.””
