I think Lucy should be brought to 4D theatres


Honestly, it was made for it, so much of the film could easily be made into an immersing experience for viewers, the scenes are very animated and have the feeling of constant motion, for example, think of the Time Travel sequence, they could mask every movement of the scenes with EFX motion seats, front air winds to match atmospheric cinematic-like events, fog, mist, rain, snow, bubbles,strobing and even scents, this would fit the basic sequence of Lucy in her chair while skipping through all the seasons and deformations in the winter, summer, rain, blizzards, winds, catching the smells of the rain drops, heat of the volcanoes erupting around her, the cold and warm air against her skin, hyper-realistic motion to match the sensation of being stalked by the Dinosaur and speeding off into the distance to greet the CGI created Lucy Ancestor then zoom off into space glimpsing Earth in it's formation, chair motion and movement with heat sensations would nail it perfectly, then we get to the final showdown of the movie's grand finale where the black matter begins to form over Lucy who is in still motion so the chair motion would mirror that exact sensation of stillness, and then we slip back into Lucy's perspective of flying through the cosmos, the winds and atmospheric pressures rise with intensity to match the feeling of being propelled past galaxies, nebulae, stars, the advanced lighting systems would also greatly benefit this, chair pulsations and internal motion systems built under the chair to give the effect of 'feeling' the chaotic instant travel through the black hole and into the scene where Lucy glimpses black spiralling plumes which she enters one to travel through the colourful and entrancing tunnels, now this would be the opportunity to match the exact movements and patterns of Lucy's view going through the black hole and popping out of the other side by having the chair slowly turn 'slightly' to the left then rise from the ground then fall back down, like a
roller coaster ride basically, the sounds and FX gives the 'scene' a liquid-y sort of feel to it, so physical atmospheric effects can be utilized to mask the sensation of rising up to the surface of an ocean, sudden hyper-realistic movements and motions direct the viewer into being sucked through a wind tunnel as Lucy is flying through a vortex of entrancing colours and spirals so the winds can come into play again but building up until get a glimpse of the First Cells splitting backwards, water scents and liquid sensations can mask this scene perfectly, then vibrations within the seat covers reflect the sensations Lucy would feel as it makes it's way from her lips to her eyes, like bugs crawling within your skin, magnetic and static sensations take place, then the first Cells become One Cell, sensation of water thrown into our faces, then the tunnel goes backwards and backwards to the point of the Big Bang, the chairs are propelled slightly towards the screen with high speeds as the energies condense into an array of blue and green tones, vibrations kick in, Universe becomes a tiny ball that shrinks and shrinks until all that's left is the black nothingness, then the chairs fall back to the ground, pure silence, when the 100% appears on the screen, everything comes to a halt, when suddenly we end up back in the Laboratory, winds reflecting the atmosphere of the room, heat atmospheric pressure utilized once again when Mr Jang fires his gun at the suddenly vanished Lucy, we feel the breath and movement of the scientists in fear, then Pierre fires at Mr Jang who dies on Lucy's chair, Lucy's computer vibrates within our seats, Professor Norman picks up the received thumb-drive containing Lucy's knowledge, the computer then disintegrates, atmospheric effects mirror the sensation of the components turning to dust, then the soundtrack kicks in with deep bass and vibration which our chairs then 'dance' to, in a robotic and alien tone, Pierre asks of Lucy's whereabouts, the scientists are in silence, vibrations become slightly more 'intense' when he receives Lucy's text message as the screen is affected by static, the 'vocals' in the music then make the chairs buzz repeatedly, Lucy's final monologue plays, scent of fire, ash, smoke and blood remains, then the credits play.

Just imagine that, wouldn't that be something incredible? The only film I saw in 4D I believe was Shrek 4D, it was an amazing experience, felt like I was actually in the movie, but to have that for a film like Lucy? It HAS to happen, it's an opportunity that shouldn't be wasted.
