Shatter Reality Virtual Reality App Offers Double Screen Experience for Insurgent Viewers

Lionsgate has announced the launch of the new The Divergent Series: Insurgent - Shatter Reality app across multiple platforms. The film is in theaters now, and fans can download Shatter Reality on Samsung Milk VR, Android and iOS devices for a double screen, virtual reality experience. Read on for more details.



The Android and IOS application, designed by award-winning animation studio Reel FX, features the groundbreaking Shatter Reality VR experience currently on tour presented by Samsung and a one-of-a-kind “virtual theater,” inspired by the film’s "Erudite Lab" as a way for viewers to experience a special, stereoscopic 3D scene from the movie. The launch comes as a culmination to the 'Erudite Mainframe' website experience; an interactive online feature that allows users to explore the Faction society structure that is the foundation for the film's world, and enter the tyrannical Jeanine Matthews' secretive 'simulation lab' in the Erudite HQ building.

Insurgent is the first major motion picture to use Google Cardboard and let fans enjoy virtual reality experiences on their smartphones. Today only, audiences that purchase tickets to Insurgent on Fandango are guaranteed an Insurgant branded Cardboard as a gift with purchase.

Lionsgate has also partnered with Imax and Regal Cinemas exclusively to distribute Insurgent Google cardboards in all Regal Imax Theatres starting Thursday, March 19 while supplies last.

“Insurgent – Shatter Reality” is available on Samsung's Gear VR powered by Oculus and the Galaxy Note 4, via the Samsung Milk VR platform and in an exclusive 4D experience touring through New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Austin and San Francisco, prior to going live across all platforms and app stores. Fans will also be able to view the experience on Samsung Gear VR during the March 7-8 weekend at select Best Buy stores across the U.S. In the experience, users take the role of “Divergent” members of society in the film, who are captured by Jeanine Matthews (Kate Winslet) and are subjected to a series of mental “simulations” to determine the full extent of their divergence -- transporting them to fearscapes from a crumbling Chicago skyscraper to a fast-approaching locomotive.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory. Like most buffets, it’s a roll of the dice: hit the line on a good day and you’ll be full and happy; catch it on an...
