'''Variants:''' Throughout the years, this trailer had many different variants:


* 1995 A: The audio was remixed digitally in [[Dolby|Dolby Digital]], [[DTS]], and [[Sony Dynamic Digital Sound|SDDS]] with then-new technology (with the latter system even having a special end variant). The DTS variant also has text at the beginning saying "'''dts''' {{Font|Times New Roman|Digital Sound In A THX Theatre}}". The rectangle then fades in,, but the "The Audience is Listening" text has been moved up to the center and is in Times New Roman. After the THX logo fades out, a similar end card to the SDDS variant appears.

After the THX logo fades out, a similar end card to the SDDS variant (with the DTS logo of course, a black "DTS Digital Sound" logo on a white rectangle) appears.
* 1995 B: Probably the most recognizable THX trailer variant. It was exclusive to home video releases and revised a bit more. The gray text reading "The Audience is Listening" is replaced with "Digitally Mastered for Optimal Video and Audio Performance" in a rounded Arial Light font in white and arranged in the center of the outline. That text appears longer than the regular version, and "DIGITALLY" appears above the THX logo and "MASTERED" appears below that logo. Those texts fade in with the THX logo instead of appearing after the blue outline disappears, and they sparkle while the THX logo shines.

* 1995 C: Both the audio and the trailer is shorter than the standard 1984-1997 theatrical version. The audio (in this, and both 1995 A & B variants) is also in +2 higher (on VHS & LD; +3 on PAL releases), or -1.5 lower on DVDs.
