Then, the hand of a conductor, holding a baton, moves up in the box. The hand flicks the baton, blasting out a {{color|dodgerblue|blue}} "hyperspace" far larger than the box that slowly turns {{color|red}}. Once it fully changes color, a 3D THX logo zooms towards the viewer, against a {{color|firebrick|dark red}} abyss. Text reading "'''The Audience is Listening'''" then fades in, in the same font and color used in "Broadway"; followed by a subtitle reading "'''Lucasfilm Ltd. Sound System'''", along with a copyright notice at the bottom right of the screen. | ||
