Just an idea, but how could you make the virtual theater experience even more like a real theater? My theater-going days harken back to actual film and projectionists, so my suggestions stem from that era.
Film occasionally goes randomly out of focus
Add reel change “cigarette burns” to the corners of movies (maybe signalling a bumper or host segment)
Scratch-and-dust filter to “age” movies being shown
I once saw a presentation of the Michael Moore film ‘Roger and Me’ that had a reel of Blue Velvet spliced in by mistake at the on-site assembly stage. Hey, I guess all those cans of film do look quite similar after a while.
Maybe throw a minute of a Joel riffing section into a Jonah episode? Won’t make for quite the same violent disconnect as my ‘reel’* life experience but would be fun.
Having worked in cinemas at various points over the years I can safely say spraying with soda would be the best possible option for what can be sprayed in a cinema
Can I get two people behind me who can’t complete a sentence without adding at least a bakers dozen, like, likes into it, talking about something that happened to an acquaintance of a friend of theirs at Zaxby’s two weeks ago Thursday?
Stick a pinball table in a corner of one of the virtual theater’s levels, but never make it playable.
And then devise a protocol that allows browsers/smart TVs/personal devices to liberally spray a fart smell for the duration of your time viewing Gizmoplex content. When viewing on your phone, it’s advised to wear your Kingavision 3-D glasses as protective eyewear so you don’t get the sprayed fart spray into your orbs.
