'''Trailer:''' We first see a pitch-black screen, but then we see the words "THE SCIENCE OF SENSATION" (in capital letters) coming at us each two words at a time (like the "Broadway 2000" trailer) and as a {{color|purple}} flare appears under the 'O', the words suddenly fade out by spreading apart. Then, the THX logo and the text "CERTIFIED CINEMA" appears, with a faint shine where the 'O' used to be. The logo shines with a flare coming down on the "T". WWW.THX.COM and the copyright at the bottom appear. | '''Trailer:''' We first see a pitch-black screen, but then we see the words "THE SCIENCE OF SENSATION" (in capital letters) coming at us each two words at a time (like the "Broadway 2000" trailer) and as a {{color|purple}} flare appears under the 'O', the words suddenly fade out by spreading apart.

*It is most likely that this trailer was originally created for use with digital cinema projectors, not only for the use of the tagline, but also include a flare so it can immerse the viewer with a sharper and cleaner picture in the auditorium before a film would start. | |||

'''Music/Sounds:''' A remastered Deep Note, some shining sounds, and whooshes. In this remastered Deep Note, some voices are reminiscent of the newer ones from the Broadway 2000 version, and some of the voices reach their final pitches before the others do. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A remastered Deep Note, some shining sounds, and whooshes.

'''Availability:''' Uncommon. | '''Music/Sounds Trivia:''' The audio used in this trailer made an appearance on it's well known parody featured in the film, ''Over the Hedge''. If you listen closely just as the two of the three porcupine children are about to switch the signals from the logo to a cam of Gladys' room, you can hear the sound of glittering just as the flare is about to disappear in the trailer. | ||
'''Availability:''' Uncommon. It is unknown on which date it was first released to theaters, but it would most definitely debut on the theatrical release of ''Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith'', most likely due to it being the first film to be used on Dolby's own digital cinema projectors during its rise (especially since this film was filmed entirely using digital cameras). It can be seen on many DVD releases as well such as ''Titanic: Special Collector's Edition'', ''Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith'', and the Japanese DVD of ''Lorelei: The Witch of The Pacific Ocean'' (debut). It's also seen in some THX theaters. The VHS version is limited to the rare ''Revenge of the Sith'' UK tape. Also used on the Monster Music DVDs of ''3 Doors Down Away from the Sun'' and ''Peter Cincotti: Live in New York'' as well as the French DVD releases of ''Land of the Dead,'' ''Mr. and Mrs. Smith'' and ''Sin City''. This also appears on the Monster Music SuperDisc DVDs of ''Ray Charles: Genius Loves Company'', ''A Charlie Brown Christmas: Vince Guaraldi Trio'' and ''40 Years: A Charlie Brown Christmas'' when you select the THX Optimizer option. This also makes a surprise appearance on the French DVD of ''Cinderella Special Edition''. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' On home media releases, it could catch people off-guard the first time if they were expecting the DVD version of the Broadway trailer thanks to the unsettling nature of the trailer. That said, it's one of the more unimpressive THX logos out there. | '''Editor's Note:''' On home media releases, it could catch people off-guard the first time if they were expecting the DVD version of the Broadway trailer thanks to the unsettling nature of the trailer.
