The two look at the screen (with Donkey also nervously saying "Uh-oh..."), before looking at each other and smiling awkwardly as they raise the logo (apparently made out of woo) up. The Deep Note starts again (albeit less loud than before) and the logo shimmers in {{color|limegreen|green}} from left to right. While the Deep Note is playing, Donkey comes out and plays the kazoo over the last few seconds. Shrek whispers "Donkey!" at him, and as Donkey mutters "Okay, okay! Chill, Shrek..." the two walk off-screen. The screen fades to black as the words "illuminate your senses" fades in on the top and shines, a smaller THX Certified Cinema logo in the middle, and copyright info on the bottom. | ||

'''Availability:''' Extinct. It was not seen on the original theatrical release of ''Shrek'' because of the feud between DreamWorks and Disney at the time (the debut date given reflects the scuttle bug that it was supposed to premiere before ''Monsters, Inc.'' before Disney threatened to blacklist THX over the trailer, most likely due to ''Shrek''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s DVD release date being the same day ''Monsters, Inc.'' opened), but it eventually debuted in 2006 to promote ''Shrek the Third''.
