4DX and SCREENX Break Memorial Day Opening Weekend Box Office Records

CJ 4DPLEX is proud to announce its biggest Memorial Day weekend ever, with a combined $4.4 million domestic box office haul across its 4DX and SCREENX formats. The holiday weekend marked the largest weekend of the year for CJ 4DPLEX and set new high-water marks for both formats.

Powered by Disney’s Lilo & Stitch and Paramount’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, 4DX and SCREENX drew audiences into the action like never before:

  • 4DX generated $2.9 million total with Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossible
  • Lilo & Stitch alone delivered $2.2 million in 4DX — the biggest Memorial Day opening ever for a single 4DX title
  • SCREENX delivered $1.5 million with Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, surpassing the Memorial Day weekend record previously held by Top Gun: Maverick
  • Across both formats, this was CJ 4DPLEX’s biggest U.S. weekend of the year to date

“This record-breaking weekend shows just how far our premium formats have come in delivering next-level theatrical experiences,” said Don Savant, CEO & President, CJ 4DPLEX America. “From the heartwarming chaos of Lilo & Stitch in 4DX to the heart-pounding stunts of Mission: Impossible in both 4DX and SCREENX, we’re proud to offer fans experiences they simply can’t get at home. We’re thrilled with these results and excited for what’s ahead this summer.”

CJ 4DPLEX’s 4DX format enhances films with environmental effects such as motion, vibration, wind, fog, lightning, and scent, synced to the action onscreen. SCREENX expands the visuals onto the side walls of the auditorium, surrounding viewers with up to 270 degrees of panoramic imagery.

“The submarine sequence in Mission is one of the most breathtaking scenes we’ve ever seen in SCREENX,” said Savant. “It’s a perfect example of how SCREENX transforms incredible filmmaking into an experience you can only have in our theaters.”

Both Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning are now playing in 4DX, with Mission: Impossible also available in SCREENX theaters across the U.S and Canada.
