'''Availability:''' Rare. Alongside [[DTS]]'s "Stand Alone" trailer, this debuted on the original theatrical release of ''Jurassic Park'' (according to the 1998 Lucasfilm THX "The Audience is Listening on DVD" disc and the THX Ultimate Demo Disc), and then it was seen in all THX-certified theaters from 1993 until 1997, as well as online, on the DVDs that came with second-edition and third-edition copies of the book ''DVD Demystified'' by Jim Taylor and on the 2002 Fox Five-Star Collection DVD release of ''Speed''. The "DELL PC" version is exclusive to the ''THX Picture and Sound Optimizer'' disc. The DTS version is all but extinct, only being used on early DTS films such as the aforementioned ''Jurassic Park''; and it took until May 2022 for this variant to be discovered. | '''Availability:''' Rare.

Seen in THX-certified theaters for some time, though for how long remains a mystery. It debuted likely in front of ''Alien Resurrection'', as the logo debuted on Thanksgiving weekend (in the U.S.) of that year according to several THX demo discs. The Lucasfilm byline variant can be seen on various THX-certified DVDs from 2000 to 2005, mostly on films from Pixar (such as ''Toy Story 2'', ''Monsters, Inc.'', ''Toy Story 10th Anniversary Edition'', and ''Finding Nemo'') and Fox (such as ''Speed 2'' and ''The Day The Earth Stood Still''), as well as THX Demo discs, the DVDs that came with second-edition and third-edition copies of the book ''DVD Demystified'' by Jim Taylor, and even the VHS of ''Monsters, Inc.'', although Disney Channel's original print of the film plastered this with the VHS version of Broadway instead, possibly due to time compression. The remastered variant without a Lucasfilm byline debuted in the US on ''Star Wars: Clone Wars Volume Two'' on December 6, 2005. (internationally, it debuted on ''Toy Story 2 Special Edition'' on November 28, 2005) A variant is also on the ''Lair'' video game for PS3. This was also seen online as well. This trailer also appears in the Pixar employees only ''Made in Point Richmond'' DVD along with the Tex logo. It was also seen on the French (2 disc) Ultimate Edition DVD release of ''The Transporter (Le Transporteur)'' and the Japanese DVD releases of ''Waterboys (ウォーターボーイズ)'', ''Check it Out, Yo!! (チェケラッチョ!!)'', and ''Swing Girls (スウィングガールズ)''. | ||
