D-BOX Technologies Inc.

UltraStar’s Mission Marketplace will equip an auditorium with 26 of the D-BOX MFX seats while the Poway Creekside theatre will feature 18. With both theatres scheduled to debut with D-BOX this March, moviegoers can continue to live the action at two current area locations, Apple Valley Cinema in San Bernadino and Mission Valley in San Diego as well as one of the first D-BOX equipped location, namely, UltraStar Cinemas Surprise Pointe near Phoenix. “We are very proud to continue our expansion with UltraStar Cinemas who was the first exhibitor chain to sign on with D-BOX,” said President and Chief Executive Officer of D-BOX Technologies, Claude Mc Master. “About this time last year we were preparing to debut the first D-BOX theatrical system to the public at their Arizona location and now audiences throughout North America, and even Japan, can enjoy the D-BOX experience.” “The team here at UltraStar Cinemas could not be more pleased with our partnership with D-BOX. After almost a full year of operating D-BOX’s motion system in my theatres, I can truly say that this is a technology that has made an impact and a difference in our business. Our current installations successfully draw guests from miles around, and continue to generate additional income. It only made business sense to expand our D-BOX offering,” said Damon Rubio, Executive Vice President of Operations UltraStar Cinemas.
