'''Visuals:''' On a black background, a small, white-outlined box containing a {{color|gray}} gradient background appears in the center of the screen. Then, the hand of a conductor, holding a baton, moves up in the box. The hand flicks the baton, blasting out a {{color|#77c3ec|blue}} "hyperspace" far larger than the box that slowly turns {{color|#89170d|red}}. Once we zoom through the other end of the wormhole, there is a {{color|silver}} THX logo slowly zoom towards the camera, against a {{color|#412021|dark red}} abyss. After a cooldown for a few seconds, text reading "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''The Audience is Listening'''}}" fades in, in the same font and color used in "Broadway"; followed by a subtitle reading "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''Lucasfilm Ltd. Sound System'''}}", along with a copyright notice at the bottom right of the screen.

'''Visuals:''' We start out with an octagon shape figure rising out of a {{color|silver}} surface (à la a ripple effect), and forms into another figure, which looks like petals from a flower (it in fact is a {{color|steelblue|blue}} passion flower) because we're looking at it from the top. Inside the "flower" is a crown shape figure that has wings on top of it, slowly spinning around, producing the held organ note sound, as we zoom in on it. Then, the scene changes. We now see another set of wings that also spin around, but faster. A ring is spinning around with it and goes down towards the bottom of the screen, producing the buzzer. And the scene changes again. The same set of wings from the first scene is shown, once again spinning slowly, with shades seen on the left side of the screen. As the scene changes again, a tulip is seen zooming in towards us as it opens up its front, producing the deep brass sound. Then we zoom in on a mushroom as it bumps up a bit and makes drum beats. Then a set of butterflies fly by (with some stopping in the front center of the screen), producing some flapping sound is the flowerhead-like plant with dragonfly wings as petals, it pushes one-by-one clockwise, making dolphin chirping sounds, then we see a lotus seed head opening and closing its holes as it makes a melody played on a glockenspiel. Intact with the drumbeats of the jingle, there is a variety of mushrooms as they "beat" and bump up the drumbeats, and then the scene changes to swirly-like circles that vibrate, as we zoom from one to another, making the bass horn stab. We zoom into another tulip, making another deep brass sound, and suddenly, we fly over all of the above-mentioned items. As the camera tilts toward the front and zooms back is that the plant-covered structure is actually the THX logo. The plants then retract back, revealing the silver color of the logo; this version looks slightly (but also noticeably) different than the other trailers of the past. The logo zooms back as the copyright info fades in on the bottom.

'''Variant:''' On the <u>2008 DVD of ''Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull''</u> (and the 2008 DVD reprints of the other three ''Indiana Jones'' films), the Japanese BD of ''The Magic Hour'', and the ''Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy'', this logo is formatted in 2.35:1 as compared to most other releases (2008 BD of ''Crystal Skull'', ''Avatar'', etc.) containing the trailer in 1.78:1.

'''Visuals:''' We start off in a shooting starfield. Then, a large black eclipse fades in, glows, and spins. Then, many shiny white/black sticks and veins appear all over the eclipse, representing the iris of the human eye, and we zoom further into it as the sticks and veins move around and form in different ways. Suddenly, a large shock wave appears in the middle and we zoom through it, revealing the THX logo, which is black and has a dark shine on it. The text "see you on the other side" wipes in underneath the THX logo.

* There is also a longer <u>45-second version</u> in which some of the sticks and veins move around slower, and we zoom through the large ring faster. It can be seen here.

* There's an even longer <u>60-second version</u>, which is preceded by a "Warren Cinemas presents" card. It is similar to the 45-second version, except much slower.
