'''Trailer:''' On a black background, the phrase "The Audience is Listening" fades in. It disappears by sliding to the right. The background becomes a {{color|cadetblue|bluish green}} gradient. A black line with {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} marks slides to the right of the screen and starts to gently shake. It becomes liquid and breaks up into small circles. We zoom through the liquid. Multiple grouped lines start swirling around in a circular motion, then forms into a 4-layered sphere. A {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} glow surrounds the sphere. It becomes liquid and opens up, revealing blue electric lines. It later explodes to fill the background with black, then zooms out in the form of the THX logo. It later fills up with metallic material, making it look normal. Some of the {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} lines remain, then later disappear completely. Finally, two copyright notices appear: | '''Trailer:''' On a black background, the phrase "The Audience is Listening" fades in. It disappears by sliding to the right.
