1. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Genre: Comedy, Supernatural, Horror
Cast: Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Jenna Ortega
Release Date: September 6, 2024
One of the most exciting releases this fall is Beetlejuice Beetlejuice–a movie that almost didn’t happen. The iconic Tim Burton, whose vision of bringing the original mischievous ghoul to life from 1988, was adamant that this sequel would only happen if Michael Keaton returned to play his role as the famous Beetlejuice. And guess what? Keaton was all in for this one, marking it as one of the only movie follow-ups he’s ever been excited about.
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice takes us back to the eerie charm of Winter River, where the Deetz family faces new supernatural shenanigans. After a tragic event, Lydia returns to her childhood home with her daughter, Astrid, and the rest of the Deetz clan. But peace and quiet aren’t in the cards. Astrid stumbles upon a model of the town in the attic and unintentionally cracks open a portal to the afterlife. And the craziness doesn’t end there. With Beetlejuice's name bound to be spoken three times, mayhem is guaranteed as the ghost with the most is unleashed once again, ready to wreak havoc in ways only he can. Experiencing this film in a D-BOX motion seat will finally immerse you in the classic Beetlejuice mischief.

Genre: Thriller, Musical
Cast: Zazie Beetz, Joaquin Phoenix, Ken Leung
Release Date: October 4, 2024
Joker: Folie à Deux is the highly anticipated follow-up to the groundbreaking 2019 film Joker. And if you’re unfamiliar with French, the term “Folie à Deux” means “Madness of Two,” hinting at the chaotic relationship in the story. Fun fact–this same term was coined in the 19th century from a psychiatric condition where two people share the same delusion or madness. This definitely sets the stage for a tale of shared insanity between the Joker and his infamous partner in crime.
The plot of Joker: Folie à Deux dives into the twisted romance between Arthur Fleck and Harley Quinn–a character whose love for chaos matches his own. Their story begins in the grim halls of Arkham State Hospital, where the two first meet. Once released into society, they jump into an adventure that spirals into madness, blending dark humor, tragedy, and the kind of psychological intensity that made the first film a hit. When you see this film with motion-enhanced seats, you’ll experience the madness right along with the Deux, like you’re part of their wild duo.

This time around, the story centers on global pop sensation Skye Riley. Just as she’s about to start a new world tour, Skye begins experiencing some seriously terrifying and unexplained events.

Get ready for the final chapter in the wild and chaotic saga of Eddie and his alter ego. While Andy Serkis, the original director of the explosive Venom: Let There Be Carnage, was eager to return for this final movie, he had to pass on the opportunity due to his commitments to another big hit. Now stepping into the director’s chair is Kelly Marcel, who’s no stranger to the Venom universe–having worked as a writer on the previous films.
Venom: The Last Dance is the high-stakes, action-packed finale that brings Tom Hardy’s Venom full circle. The plot circles around Venom on the run–hunted by enemies from both his worlds–and the tension is at an all-time high. As the net closes in, the film sets the stage for an epic conclusion to the trilogy, delivering the kind of intense, edge-of-your-seat action and emotional depth that fans have come to love. Plus, you can actually feel like you’re right there alongside Venom while he closes the curtains on his journey in your motion-enhanced D-BOX theater seat!

Cast: Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jonathan Bailey
Release Date: November 22, 2024
Experience the magical world of Oz like never before with Wicked, a reimagination that dives deep into the untold stories of its most iconic characters. But first, did you know that in L. Frank Baum's original "Oz" novels, the Wicked Witch of the West wasn’t even green? She was portrayed as an old woman with three pigtails and an eyepatch. The green skin we’ve come to associate her with was actually introduced in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz and has since become a defining trait.
In Wicked, we follow the journey of Elphaba, a misunderstood and passionate young woman with emerald skin, from her birth through the life-changing events that lead her to be labeled "wicked." Along the way, we meet Glinda the Good Witch, a spoiled rich girl who becomes Elphaba’s unlikely friend, and Fiyero, the charming prince who complicates everything. This vivid familiar tale goes even further and takes us behind the scenes of the Land of Oz, revealing the darker, more complex side of the story we thought we knew.
