TGV CINEMA WITH THE LARGEST IMAX SCREEN IN MALAYSIA OPENS AT SUNWAY VELOCITY MALL

Growing up with the Star Wars movie franchise made me inevitably a fan, maybe not a super duper fanatic fan, but a big fan, nevertheless.... so when I received an invitation for TGV Cinemas Sdn Bhd (TGV)  launching of its newest multiplex, at the new Sunway Velocity mall, I was so very thrilled...

However, that was not all about my excitement as the launch of this state-of-the-art multiplex was jointly celebrated with the premiere screening of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in IMAX 3D, the world’s most immersive, premium large format cinema. So you can imagine my euphoria at that moment was sky high ....

There was a pop-up tavern inspired by the infamous Tatooine Mos Eisley Cantina and even a surrealistic band right out from Star Wars and waiters decked out in imperial uniforms.... I could almost believe I was transported to Tatooine or somewhere in space...
