THX is a motion picture quality certification system (despite being branded as a "sound system" until 1997) founded by Tomlinson Holman and George Lucas in 1982 (in turn was then-owned by [[Lucasfilm Ltd.]] until June 2002, when spun-off in its present-day company - THX Ltd.), named after the first film Lucas directed, ''THX 1138''. The first THX film was 1983's hit movie ''Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi''. THX officially stands for "'''T'''omlinson '''H'''olman's e'''X'''periment". THX certifies fine-tuned home theater equipment, TiVo DVRs, and some PCs. They have previously certified physical media such as VHS, LaserDisc, DVD and Blu-ray (and HD-DVD; [https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=THX#14th Trailer (June 9-November 23, 2006) ''Brave Story''] in Japan and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yp2Ov3TDzBs ''Pan's Labyrinth']' in [[THX (France)|France]] only) until around late 2012, as well as [[THX Certified Games|video games]] until 2009. In 2006, THX ran a contest for fans of the logos to create their own. You can see the winners of that contest [[THX "Make Your Own Trailer" Contest Entries|here]]. Previously owned by sound card manufacturer Creative Technology, THX was acquired by gaming peripheral manufacturer Razer (which acquired the developers of the Ouya game console) on October 17, 2016.
